BREAST AUGMENTATION — ALSO KNOWN AS AUGMENTATION MAMMOPLASTY — IS SURGERY TO INCREASE BREAST SIZE

Breast Augmentation Dubai | 1 March 2023

A key element of feeling feminine and more confident for many women is having bigger, more voluminous breasts. Because breasts give the female body more proportion, curves, and shape, many women feel more seductive. There are many reasons why women dislike their breasts.

Under the patient’s breast flesh, an implant is placed to enhance the size and shape of the breast. Although it can also be made under the underarm or around the nipple, the incision for the breast implants is frequently made at the crease beneath the breast.

Breast augmentation surgery usually takes an hour and a half while under general anaesthesia. The actual process entails accessing and creating the pocket into which the implant will be inserted using one of the insertion routes—breast-crease, armpit, or nipple.

There are three different incision types that can be used during breast augmentation procedure. There are peri-areolar incisions, transaxillary incisions (under the underarm), and inframammary incisions (under the breast). (along the lower edge of the Areola). Dr. Vigo will discuss all of your choices with you during your appointment, outlining the benefits of each and going over the specifics of the procedure, such as the recovery time.

EYELID REJUVENATION – WITH AGE, EYELIDS STRETCH, AND THE MUSCLES SUPPORTING THEM WEAKEN

BLEPHAROPLASTY DUBAI | 29 JANUARY 2023

Our skin begins to lose suppleness as we age because this is a normal aspect of growing older. It is common for the face to be the first area of the body to exhibit apparent indications of ageing and a loss of this elasticity because the face and facial skin are frequently more exposed to environmental influences than other regions of the body (such as sun, wind, pollution, etc.).

The skin around the eye is very thin and delicate, and it is one of the places where aging skin will be most visible on the human body. As the skin around the eye loses elasticity, it will begin to stretch, and gravity will cause the stretched skin to pool above and below the eyes. On the top eyelid, this creates the appearance of ‘hooded’ or droopy eyelids. If the top eyelid sags too much, it can start to impede a person’s field of vision. On the bottom eyelid, the effect is slightly different. There are small fat deposits located under each of our eyes that helps to cushion the eye socket. When the lower eyelid skin begins to lose elasticity, this area will become more exposed and a bulge can appear under the eye. This is commonly referred to as ‘undereye bags’. When the lower eyelid skin begins to lose elasticity, this area will become more exposed and a bulge can appear under the eye. This is commonly referred to as ‘undereye bags’.

What can I expect from the surgery?

Eyelid surgery is a relatively short, uncomplicated procedure that is normally performed as a outpatient surgery.

In a typical eyelid surgery procedure, local anaesthetic will be applied to the eyelid and the surgeon will make several small, discreet incisions along the eyelids. Special care will be taken by your surgeon to ensure there will be minimal bleeding or scarring. The incisions will normally be hidden in the natural eyelid folds.

In an upper eyelid procedure (upper blepharoplasty), incisions will be made in the upper eyelid crease. In a lower eyelid surgery, the incision will be made just underneath the lash line of the lower eyelid. In some instances where no skin needs to be removed, the surgeon may be able to perform a transconjunctival blepharoplasty. In this procedure, an incision is made from the inner side of the lower eyelid directly, and as a result there is no visible scarring.

Once the incisions are made, any excess of tissue (skin and/or fat) will be removed and the incision will be sealed with small sutures. The whole procedure will typically take between one to three hours.

The specifics of your eyelid surgery procedure will vary depending on the nature and severity of the eyelid issue that is being addressed and whether the surgery will be on your upper, lower, or both eyelids. Your surgeon will outline and explain all of the details of your particular procedure before the operation to make sure that you are prepared.

What can I expect after surgery?

Following surgery, you should arrange for someone to rive you home. As with any procedure that affects your vision, it is important that you allow sufficient time for recovery before you drive or undertake any activity that requires uncompromised vision.

As part of your recovery, you will need to ensure that you rest, elevate your head, and apply ice to the eye area to keep swelling and bruising to a minimum. Individual patients will experience pain differently, but the procedure should only cause mild pain. The recovery time from an upper eyelift can vary for individual patients, but the skin of the upper eyelid tends to heal quickly. Most patients find that they are able to return to normal activities within three to four days. Some patients may develop dry eyes for one to two weeks. If the dry eye symptoms persist for a longer period of time, you should discuss this with your surgeon.

Results from the surgery

It is important to remember that the full results from your eyelid surgery will not be immediate, and the final results may take several months to appear.

Long-term results

Eyelid surgery is a permanent procedure, but for some patients, the surgery may need to be repeated after a period of years. The eye area will naturally continue to age after the surgery, so you may find that the effects of your upper eyelid surgery gradual reduce with time. Upper eyelid surgery can be expected to last approximately 5-10 years. Lower eyelid surgery usually maintains for a longer period and rarely needs to be repeated.

BREAST AUGMENTATION – AN EASY RECOVERY WILL DEPEND ON SEVERAL FACTORS

BREAST AUGMENTATION DUBAI | 23 JANUARY 2023

You may anticipate a rapid and easy recovery from breast augmentation when you have a skilled plastic surgeon on your side. In actuality, most women return to their regular jobs and daily activities in three to five days. How prepared you are to treat yourself during those initial crucial days will be one of many elements that will determine how simple your recovery will be. The following four suggestions can help you recuperate normally from your breast augmentation.

Plan for assistance – While breast augmentation recovery is not extremely difficult, you will have just undergone major surgery. Therefore, for the first few days, you will be sore and tired. For six weeks, you should not do any heavy lifting, and this includes picking up children under 20 pounds. Plus, no driving until you are finished with all narcotic pain medications. It is recommended that you schedule assistance with household chores and with the children for the first 24 to 72 hours. Even just having a friend stop by each day to check in on you will be helpful.

Proper pain management – It is common to experience mild to moderate discomfort immediately after a breast augmentation procedure. Some women will feel pressure and tightness across their chest. Your doctor will prescribe a few days of pain medication to help you make it comfortably through the early recovery. However, many women find that after the first post-op day, they need nothing more than over-the-counter pain medications. Fill your 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.

Get plenty of rest and sleep – Getting enough rest during your breast augmentation recovery sounds simple, 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 movies, 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.

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.

The Longevity of the Subnasal Lip Lift Procedure

Lip Lifting Dubai | 14 December 2022

For the most part of us, our parents did not give us full lips. Others may notice that as we become older, our lips lose their height and fullness. The result is always older-looking skin and thinner lips. The good news is that there is a solution. A lip lift could help you get the full, youthful lips you want. Lip lifts, however, exist in a range of configurations and are not all the same. Injections of lip filler may lift your lips and give you a poutier appearance, but they do not have the same effects as a lip lift. Lip lifts require surgery, however lip fillers don’t. Lip lifts deliver long-lasting effects, whilst lip fillers only offer temporary ones. For the majority of people, lip-raising surgery is generally appropriate. If you do not have adequate space (often at least 1.5 centimetres) between the top of the upper lip and the base of the nose, lip fillers or Botox may be a better alternative for you than lip lift surgery. The best course of action is to decide what your objectives are with Dr. Vigo’s guidance, then find out more about the many procedures that can help you achieve them. Subnasal bullhorn, one of the most common lip lift operations, necessitates a cut near the base of the nose (where the scar is easily hidden). Although they need surgery, lip lifts can give you the lifted, youthful lips you want. If your lips are thinning, naturally turned down, or if all you want is a more appealing, brighter smile, this treatment might work for you.
