ALL ABOUT BUCCAL FAT REMOVAL FOR THINNER CHEEKS

Aesthetic Medicine Dubai | 9 December 2023

To alter the look of the face and lower cheek size, buccal fat can be surgically removed. The buccal pad is located deep within the cheek fat. It is located between two face muscles, below the cheekbone. 

The size of this fat pad affects the shape of the face. They exist in all people, however they differ greatly in size. This pad’s size can be surgically reduced. It will reduce roundness or fat in the cheeks, giving the face a more angular shape.

If you have dense buccal fat pads, your face will seem bigger or rounder. Sometimes others will refer to it as a “baby face.” There is nothing wrong with having larger buccal fat pads in the face, but if you wish them to seem smaller, Dr. Matteo Vigo is skilled at executing this fat removal surgery. Buccal fat reduction reduces facial fat, especially in the cheek hollows, with the goal of thinning the cheek region. Even while having a flexible, smooth face is often associated with youth, some people believe that their faces are too broad or large.

The pads on each patient’s faces might be different sizes overall and on either side. Patients who have this kind of cosmetic surgery frequently do not have narrow or long faces. Therefore, they would appear older and more worn-down. Instead, the cheekbones are meant to be highlighted. Larger cheeks are perfectly fine, however many patients prefer prominent cheekbones. This technique may improve patients’ appearance due to a more defined face shape. The best part is that there are no noticeable scars left behind because all incisions are made inside the patient’s lips. Furthermore, it doesn’t take very long; often, it only takes a little bit longer than an hour.

Fillers in Dubai | 3 December 2023

Today more people are turning to gentler new ways to get a younger look, with incredible results. Fresh, smooth, glowing skin – it’s on every woman’s wish list. And those in the know are finding clever new ways to achieve a brighter. more youthful look, without the kind of bashing and bruising so often associated with a face-lift.

Face-lifts are reportedly falling out of favour even in the U.S, and off the list of the top five requested treatments. Instead, women are increasingly seeking out gentler, non-invasive and less expensive treatments which, while perhaps not as dramatic or permanent in their results, can still help us to present a fresh, radiant new face to the world.

Dermal Fillers Treatment

Prior to any filler treatment, I always invite my clients in for a consultation to ensure we find the best treatment to achieve results suitable for you. Dermal Fillers, made from Hyaluronic Acid, are the most popular volume enhancing treatments and are often used to reduce facial lines and to restore plumpness and volume to the lips and cheeks, defining the shape of your face. Producing safe, long-lasting and natural looking results, dermal fillers are a safe and effective cosmetic treatment when administered by a qualified practitioner.

There are many dermal fillers on the market that are substandard in terms of ingredients and quality. I use only the highest quality brand of temporary fillers renowned for their superior standards. 

Lip Augmentation Fillers

For those who are unhappy with the shape or size of their lips, temporary Dermal Fillers can provide an effective volume enhancing solution that keeps them feeling soft and natural. A common complaint by many of my patients is that they dislike how thin their lips look. Instead of lining the lips and creating a distorted result, we enhance your lips’ natural pattern to give them an overall pleasing and full appearance.

Tear Trough Fillers

By injecting Dermal Fillers into the tear trough – which extends from your eye to divide your cheek from your lower eyelid – the area can be made to look less hollow while subtly easing dark circles under the eyes. Tear Trough procedures treatments are very specialised and require an experienced hand to perform them, especially since the treatment may not be suitable for everyone. The area under the eyes is assessed before treatment and I will advise you on whether this is an effective treatment for your case. Those who are eligible will benefit from a fuller and brighter expression that will leave your face looking fresh and rejuvenated.

Cheek Fillers  (achieve a fuller cheek bone, higher cheek done look or to lift the sagging face)

Dermal Fillers can be injected along the contour of the cheek bone to help achieve a more defined appearance to the cheek bone. Volume is often lost from the cheeks due to ageing or weight loss and can cause sagging, restoring these areas are a great way to rejuvenate your face.

Nose to Mouth Lines (Nasolabial folds)

As we talk, smile, smoke or kiss it can cause the muscles around our mouth to crease and over a long period of time these lines may become more prominent and permanent. The ageing process also causes our production of natural collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin to reduce causing lines and wrinkles to appear. Dermal Filler can be used to plump up and fill out the lines and folds that have been created in the Nasolabial folds as well as the mouth folds, marionette lines and drooping mouth corners to achieve a more rejuvenated and fresher face look.

Non Surgical Rhinoplasty

I also offer a Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty treatment which is achieved with the use of fillers. 

Dermal Fillers Results

Lines and wrinkles are smoothed out and the skin appears plumper and younger. Areas lacking in volume and shape now have more definition, with a fuller appearance.

Downtime

None. You can go back to work immediately after your treatment and you can apply make-up over the treated area.

Your doctor will prescribe a few days of pain medication to help you make it comfortably through the early recovery.

Fill your doctor’s prescriptions prior to the day of your breast augmentation, so that if you get home to find that you need pain or anti-nauseous medications, they are close at hand.

Getting enough rest during your breast augmentation recovery sounds like a no-brainer, but for some people, this is easier said than done. Make sure you have a quiet room set aside, as well as a comfortable bed to rest in, for the first few days. Have plenty of pillows, so you can prop yourself up at a comfortable angle. Some box sets, books and magazines will help pass the time. You will be walking immediately after surgery, slowly regaining your strength. Just remember to listen to your body, getting plenty of sleep and relaxation, as you heal.

4. Have plenty of light, healthy foods and water at home

Before heading to the clinic for your breast augmentation, stock your kitchen with easy to prepare food and plenty of water. For the first post-op day, you may be nauseous from the anesthesia or not have much of an appetite, so soft, light foods are best. Make sure you have a healthy variety of foods on hand, to give your body energy and strength to heal over the following week. It is easy to become dehydrated during this time period, so drink water, water and more water.

WHAT ARE VAMPIRE FACIAL AND PRP TREATMENTS

Cosmetic Clinic Dubai | 18 November 2023

The premise of the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) procedure, popularly known as the “Vampire Facelift” or “Dracula Therapy,” is that the body’s own healing mechanisms may have the capacity to both suddenly reverse and slow down the ageing process.

We believe that the skin should heal and rejuvenate itself precisely where development components are positioned inside a progressive repair framework.

High concentrations of “development factors,” or proteins, are found in platelets, which help wounded skin or tissue heal. The release of growth factors by the platelets during reinfusion causes the surrounding cells to divide, enlivening the repair, supplying volume, and revitalising the skin.

An avant-garde With the use of the concentrated platelet rich plasma system, I am able to treat large volumes of whole blood, allowing me to treat more areas in a single appointment and reducing the frequency of visits for patients. The patient’s blood is drawn during the procedure, processed (in a rotator) to isolate the platelet-rich plasma, and then injected once again into the targeted area. The procedure offers the skin a plumped appearance, smoothes out minor variances and kinks, and makes the skin appear overall more radiant. Additionally, the method is fantastic for healing wounds.

Breast sagging may develop during childbirth, breastfeeding, or abrupt weight loss. It is a typical aspect of ageing. Women who are dissatisfied with the appearance of their breasts owing to ptosis may choose for breast lift surgery in addition to breast augmentation.

Measure the distance between your nipples and the fold beneath your breasts when you’re facing a mirror. Implants won’t accomplish anything but make your breasts droop further if your nipples were lower than your breast crease before to surgery. I frequently suggest breast augmentation and breast lifting to people with this issue.The most difficult type of breast surgery for women is a breast lift. 

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MOMMY MAKEOVER

Cosmetic Clinic Dubai |  11 November 2023

Do you know about the Mommy Makeover? The popularity of this combination of surgical treatments is growing daily. Every patient receives a unique Mommy Makeover package designed to return her postpartum physique to its pre-pregnancy form. The stomach tuck is included in several packages.The uterus expands to accommodate the growth of the baby inside the woman’s body. 

Unfortunately, this has the negative consequence of weakening the abdominal wall and separating the abdominal muscles. The skin of the stomach expands, muscle tissue sags and bulges, and extra fatty tissue accumulates in the area.This causes stretch marks in the skin and a “pooch” of flab, giving the abdomen an unnatural appearance. 

To restore the abdominal wall, trim away excess skin, remove stretch marks, and suction out excess fatty tissue, we offer the tummy tuck as an option for your Mommy Makeover package.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE GETTING LIP FILLER

Fillers in Dubai |  9 November 2023

Every person is different. Variations in lip form, metabolism, heredity, risk factors, and aesthetic goals are all included in this. Instead of comparing your lip, architecture, or volume to someone else’s, embrace your uniqueness! It’s what makes us unique.

How long does it take?

– 10 minutes of topical numbing

– 10 minutes of procedure

Is it painful?

– Most clients have minimal discomfort, on a scale of 1-10, they are a 2-3. This is less painful than laser hair-removal, thanks to our unique numbing technique!

How swollen will I be?

– Everyone is different, some people swell up while others do not, swelling depends on multiple factors. Just because you didn’t swell one time, does not mean you will not swell the next time you do a treatment. Sometimes an anti-swelling medication will be given after your injection. I can address this at the time of the visit. Major swelling typically lasts less than 4 days on average, while minor residual swelling can last 14-21 days.

What about bruises?

– Some people are pre-disposed to bruise, avoiding vitamins, alcohol, and ibuprofen type products can decrease the chances of a bruise. Bruising comes in three sizes: Small (like the tip of a needle), medium (like the back of pencil eraser or two pencils erasers), and large (gum-ball sized). Depending on the type of bruise they can last 2-3 days or up to 2 weeks respectively.  Arnika pills can be purchased during your visit that can help heal bruises. From time to time a laser can be used to speed up the process if warranted for specific cases.

How long does it last?

– Typically lip injections last 6 months depending on multiple factors including product used. I’ve seen people that have had fillers lasting as little as 2 months and as much as 1 year.
