Popular Plastic Surgery Procedures for your Face and Body
A Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty is one of the most common cosmetic plastic surgery procedures. The surgery is usually combined with liposuction to remove fat in your midsection. While the tummy tuck procedure involves the removal of excess fat and skin it may also tighten the abdominal muscles to create a smooth, more contoured waistline.
A good candidate for a tummy tuck has excess or loose
skin due to pregnancy, extreme weight loss, or loss of skin
elasticity from ageing.
Your plastic surgeon will explain the possible risks to this procedure; some of which are infection, skin discoloration, persistent swelling in the legs and unfavourable scarring.
A full tummy tuck procedure will require a horizontal incision within the area between the navel and the pubic hairline. The shape and length of this incision will be determined by the extent of correction required.
Your post care and recovery is very important to your healing and your surgeon should provide you with instructions and follow-up as well as a compression garment to reduce the swelling.
If you are thinking of upper Eyelid Surgery – Sometimes you may actually need a Brow Lift procedure to correct any excess of skin on your upper eyelids.
If this is the case a brow lift or forehead lift will move your eyebrows higher and will stretch your upper eyelid skin as well.
With higher set eyebrows, you will stop the wrinkling of your brows and eliminate the need for neurotoxin injections in that area.
Consider a plastic surgeon who is experienced with the Endoscopic Brow Lift as they
can accomplish a better result than with the older technique. There is less cutting and the surgeon is able to magnify the surgical procedure for maximum results with a short recovery time. Complications are rare and usually not severe.
Brow lift surgery, or forehead or eyebrow lift, allows patients to achieve a younger, more refreshed look by smoothing the forehead, reducing frown lines, and elevating the position of the eyebrow line.
Choosing a Cosmetic Plastic Surgeon is a huge life-changing decision. It should be made with as much information as possible after considering several surgeons.
Any licensed physician can technically claim to be a cosmetic surgeon, thus the importance of choosing a board certified plastic surgeon.
