What To Expect From Your Cosmetic Surgery

Today, plastic surgery is common. Men and women from all over now have access to the best plastic surgeons in the industry. Facial surgical procedures are common, and if done right, you can boost your self-esteem because of the appealing appearance the procedure gives you. If you are ever in need of getting a rhinoplasty or any other facial procedure, you can come to our facility.

We have with us some of the best surgeons, who are highly trained and experienced to give you the looks that you desire. Facial plastic surgery is safe, and quick recovery is a guarantee. Facial procedures don’t necessarily involve surgeries. We can improve your appearance by using injectables and fillers. These also have quick recovery time.

Injectables and Fillers

Some of the injectables and fillers that we use to rejuvenate our clients include:

• Restylane
• Botox
• Voluma
• Dysport
• Juvederm
• Sculptra, and
• Kybella

Restylane is a common filler that we use to rejuvenate your face. It has been used since 2003 when the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) approved it. Restylane is commonly used because it is Hyaluronic acid. It is not animal extract, and as such, the chances of getting an allergic reaction are slim. We can administer it to you when you come for your first consultation.

This filler is administered using a small needle, and we inject it under the dermal layer. It is an effective filler that we use to correct extreme wrinkles and folds on your skin. Before we administer this filler, we have to first inject you with an anesthetic to ensure that the procedure is comfortable. After it is injected into your skin, the surgeon has to briskly massage the area being treated to ensure that the filler is evenly distributed. Normally, this procedure takes approximately 15 minutes, and the results are seen immediately.

Just like most fillers, Restylane is not permanent, but it lasts for a couple of months. Once you notice that the filler is degrading, we advise that you come to your surgeon for a retouch. Keep in mind that everyone’s skin is unique, and the rate of degradation varies from one person to the other. We are well aware of this fact, and that is why we re-inject our clients after every four to five months. Despite this, it is still a very effective method of rejuvenating your skin.

Types of Facial Surgeries

Our esteemed surgeons have excellent qualifications to perform a number of surgeries. Some of the most common procedures in our establishment include:

• Facelift
• Rhinoplasty
• Revision rhinoplasty
• Eyelid surgery
• Brow lift
• Chin and cheek implants
• Regenerative aesthetics
• Facial fat transfer
• Otoplasty

Facelift surgery is also referred to as rhytidectomy, and it is commonly done. This surgery is done to improve the appearance of the face and jaw, as well as eliminating facial wrinkles. This is a procedure that is guaranteed to give you the youthful appearance you desire.

Before a facelift surgery is done on you, we have to check on a number of details. This means that it cannot be done on everyone. The ideal candidate for a facelift surgery has to have a skin that retains its natural flexibility because it involves tightening your facial skin. Moreover, you have to have a strong bone structure. Not to mention, you must be in good health. In case of any pre-existing medical conditions, make sure to inform your surgeon. There are different techniques of doing a face-lift, and your surgeon will select the one that best suits you.

Rhinoplasty is yet another common procedure. It involves adjusting the shape of your nose. If you want a nose job, our specialists would be glad to help. The procedure could entail narrowing the bridge of your nose, the tip, or reducing the size of a bump on your nose bridge. It may also involve re-adjusting your nasal tip to give you a pleasant appearance.

How Long Does It Take To See the Results of Your Rhinoplasty

After the first week of the procedure, the shape of the bridge is the only visible thing. The patient should ensure to visit the surgeon, who will ensure that the bridge takes the desired shape. Three weeks after the surgery, you should ensure to visit the surgeon. During this period, the swelling will have minimized, and the surgeon will be able to see the shape of your bridge and tip more clearly. The desired shape will have taken root, but it doesn’t indicate full recovery.

The next visit to your surgeon should be three months after your surgery. At this point, the shape of your nose will be more defined. However, you will be required to visit your surgeon six months after the surgery because the desired results have not yet been achieved. During the visit, the swelling will have completely reduced on the sides of your nose and its bridge as well. Moreover, the tip will have a good definition.

The last trip to your surgeon’s premises will be after two years. At this point, your nose will be fully defined. Do note that there are a couple of factors that influence your recovery period. For instance, steroid injections may hasten the healing process. Also, if you have a thick skin, the swelling may last longer.
