Plastic Surgery Dubai | 21 September 2023

In order to create a less-tired and more youthful appearance, an upper eyelid lift, also known as an upper blepharoplasty, involves removing the folds of loose skin and bulges of projecting fat that sit over the top eyelids. 

The skin and muscles surrounding the eyes weaken and stretch as a result of gravity’s downward pull and a loss of skin elasticity. This leads to an accumulation of loose skin and fat protrusions that give the impression of “eye bags” or a hooded look of the upper eyelid skin. Smoking, sun exposure, and weight loss may all have an accelerating influence on this feature, which may run in families.

Blepharoplasty is an activity performed on the eyelids (upper, lower or both) which includes the expulsion of skin and delicate tissue, bringing about a fresher more energetic appearance to the eyes and whole face.

The blepharoplasty system is finished to decrease the greatness around the eyes. 

This appearance can be related with skin, fat, and muscle overabundance both to the upper and lower eyelids leaving patients with a drained appearance despite the fact that might feel great rested. Blepharoplasty is in many cases performed as an elective medical procedure for corrective reasons. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty tries to further develop puffy lower eyelid “packs” and diminish the wrinkling of skin.

Blepharoplasty is once in a while required for utilitarian reasons. At the point when a high level measure of upper eyelid skin is available, the skin might project over the eyelashes and causes a deficiency of fringe vision. The external and upper pieces of the visual field are most generally impacted and the condition might cause trouble with exercises like driving or perusing. In this situation, upper eyelid blepharoplasty is performed to work on fringe vision.

To appear younger is a typical motivation for blepharoplasty procedures. Due to the loss of collagen and the elasticity of the skin, the skin on our eyelids is frequently one of the first areas of the body to show indications of ageing. This causes the skin to sag and droop more, which might make us look older than we actually are. 

While everyone experiences this as a natural part of ageing, some people may be more prone to sagging or drooping eyelids, which can create issues early on and worsen with age. An upper blepharoplasty operation may be a very efficient technique to solve the issue and restore a person’s youthful appearance.

UNDERGOING  A BLEPHAROPLASTY

For upper eyelids, the specialist cuts along the crease of the eyelid. The specialist eliminates some overabundance skin, muscle and conceivably fat. Then, at that point, the specialist shuts the cut.

On the lower cover, the specialist makes a cut just underneath the lashes in your eye’s regular wrinkle or inside the lower top. The specialist eliminates or rearranges overabundance fat, muscle and hanging skin. Then, at that point, the specialist shuts the cut.

On the off chance that your upper eyelid hangs near your student, your specialist might do blepharoplasty joined with a technique called ptosis. Ptosis is intended to lift the eyelid as well as eliminate overabundance eyelid skin.

IS A BLEPHAROPLASTY RIGHT FOR YOU?

Hanging eyelids can make you look a lot more seasoned than you truly are. The saggy tops likewise make shadow zones that give your face a hazier, harsh appearance. Be that as it may, restorative medical procedure isn’t a great fit for everybody.

For the most part, optimal possibility for blepharoplasty incorporate the people who experience the ill effects of saggy lower eyelids that cause an expanded measure of eye white to show, the people who have hanging upper covers brought about by a development of greasy tissue underneath the skin and people who are having their vision – particularly their fringe vision – darkened. Packs under the lower covers can likewise be revised with blepharoplasty.

Eyelid blepharoplasty can have a striking effect in the presence of your face, lightening the presence of sluggishness and advanced age. Your eyes seem fresher and more young and these outcomes might keep going for a long time. The level of progress shifts from one patient to another.

BLEPHAROPLASTY RESULTS

Following a blepharoplasty medical procedure the face will have a more energetic appearance and generally speaking the eyelids feel less weighty. 

The outcomes by and large last 10 to 15 years and the medical procedure typically needn’t bother with to be rehashed. There is no such thing as an ideal tasks and no specialist is great. No individual has wonderful prior life systems and no skin twisted recuperates without some level of scarring. A gentle level of deviation between eyelids is the standard, as opposed to the exemption.

A practical assumption from the medical procedure would be a 80% improvement in the upper eyelid appearance and a 70% improvement in the lower eyelid appearance.

Unlike many other cosmetic procedures and anti-ageing products, a blepharoplasty procedure offers a long-lasting solution to tired eyes. As the results are long-term, most patients will not feel the need to come back in for a repeat procedure.

Of course, the ageing process will continue, and results will vary from person to person, but in most people, a well-performed blepharoplasty procedure should last between 10-15 years.

Abdominoplasty Dubai | 15 May 2024

The midriff can be severely disfigured by excess skin and fat after giving birth or decreasing weight. Many women discover that their muscles and skin don’t recover to their previous appearance, especially after having twins or a second child, which may cause a repetitive strain in the belly. Through the removal of excess skin and fat and the strengthening of the abs, abdominal surgery, often known as “stomach fold” surgery, reduces the size of the waist. If you don’t smoke, maintain a steady weight, and have reasonable expectations, you have a high chance of acquiring a belly fold.

The stomach wall is made of skin, fat, and muscle. There is the rectus sash, a substantial band that covers the rectus abdominis muscles, which are the “six pack” of abdominal muscles. This fascial layer is commonly weakened and loosened by pregnancy and weight increase. As a result, a patient’s stomach wall may become loose after becoming in shape or having kids. During the procedure, the fascial layer that covers the rectus abdominis muscles is restored while the extra skin and fat are removed.

An even cut is made inside the lower stomach’s two-piece line during the abdominoplasty procedure. The incision may be done in the same location and extended to the sides for patients who have previously had a C-segment. The excess skin and fat are controlled and redraped while the rectus abdominis muscles of the stomach are tightened. The umbilicus, or navel, must typically be moved during an abdominal surgical procedure by making a second incision. The “small scale” abdominoplasty method does not move the navel but fixes the lower abdominal muscles while eliminating fat and skin using a constrained flat swimsuit cut.

Sometimes liposuction and stomach surgery are combined to contour the flanks. Only a tiny number of patients choose to have their breasts elevated, given more volume, or both after surgery. A “mom makeover” surgery is when a breast lift is combined with a procedure to remove excess skin from the tummy.

Plastic Surgery Dubai | 15 September 2023

By removing sagging tissue between the top lip and the septum, lip lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that enhances the appearance of thin upper lips. In order to raise and enhance the appearance of the lips and cupid’s bow, Dr. Vigo makes a small incision in the lip area or under the nose and trims away extra skin. When you grin, it’s usually easier to see your teeth.

Lip lifts are frequently performed on patients to improve the lip shape or to make the philtrum area appear more youthful and fresher.

WHAT IS LIP LIFTING

A lip lift is a clinic-based surgical procedure that narrows the “philtrum,” or space between the nose and the top of the lip. The technique makes more pink tissue exposed, giving the lips the appearance of being bigger and more prominent. Additionally, it makes your top central teeth more visible while your lips are at rest. It’s an excellent alternative for those who wish to give their lips height rather than volume.

There are numerous lip lift variations. Knowing the different kinds and strategies will help you and Dr. Vigo have an informed discussion about which is best for you.

WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE LIP LIFTING?

There are various factors that influence people’s decisions about lift lip surgery. The procedure successfully tackles issues such an enlarged philtrum, the vertical groove between the nose and the upper lip, and a thin upper lip that is brought on by ageing or genetics.

Lip lifts provide a long-term fix for thin lips that lack shape and volume. It is a more long-lasting alternative to dermal fillers, making it a desirable choice for those who do not want the maintenance associated with fillers.

Direct lip lift

A direct lip lift, sometimes called a gullwing lip lift, creates a more defined lip border. A thin strip of skin is removed just above the upper lip, and the skin is pulled upwards, creating the illusion of a more pronounced vermillion (the pink part of the lips). This procedure typically leaves behind a scar on the upper lip area.

Subnasal bullhorn

The subnasal bullhorn is one of the more common lip lift procedures. Dr. Vigo will make an incision that’s typically hidden along the base of the nose where it’s less visible. The incision is often made in the shape of a bullhorn and the center, right, and left of the lip are all pulled up toward the nose.

Central lip lift

A central lip lift is similar to a subnasal bullhorn lift. It shortens the space between the nose and the lips by an incision at the lower nose.

Corner lip lift

A corner lip lift is sometimes called a “grin lift” because it gives the face a more smiley appearance. It’s done by making two small incisions at both corners of the mouth and removing a small amount of skin. Some people will get this in tandem with another lip lift to give fuller lips. It’s an option for people who feel they have downturned lips.

A lip lift can be a good option for older people who want to reduce the space between the lips and the nose. With age, this space typically increases and can make lips look thinner. Younger people who haven’t achieved the look they want from fillers, or if they find that fillers make their lips look unnaturally plump or duck-like, may prefer a lip lift. Lip lifts are also a permanent solution, so they can be helpful for people who are tired of the upkeep of filler.

WHO IS GOOD CANDIDATE FOR LIP LIFTING?

If each of the following statements about a person is true, Dr. Vigo deems them suitable for the procedure:

– Your mental and physical health are both good.

– You are optimistic and realistic about what surgery can accomplish when you are at your desired weight.

– You’re seeking a long-lasting outcome.

– You have a 15mm or larger gap between your upper lip and nose.

– Your thin lips are a result of ageing or heredity.

– Your lip corners are downturned.

– You’re trying to find a substitute for lip fillers.

As with all surgeries, lip lifts have some potential complications include:

– scarring

– poor wound healing 

– blood loss during or after surgery

– nerve damage

WHAT IS THE RECOVERY TIME FROM LIP LIFTING SURGERY?

The recovery period following a lip lifting treatment is relatively brief. After surgery, we strongly advise resting for 24 hours and refraining from heavy activity and smoking for the next few weeks. Before having raise lip surgery, we implore you to stop smoking.

Dr. Vigo advises avoiding sleeping on your faces and avoiding extending your mouth too widely in order to take extra precautions near the lip area. It will assist to use a toothbrush with a smaller head.

After surgery, you should be able to resume your regular daily activities in about seven days.

Profhilo works by boosting your natural collagen and elastin production, the cells responsible for giving skin its firm, youthful appearance. The unique injectable HA gel has the capability to stimulate four different kinds of collagen and elastin production, putting its performance above any other filler.  

The HA solution is injected at five key points on either side of the face, restoring hydration – plumping out the skin – while also stimulating long-term collagen and elastin production.

Profhilo is ideal for combating several signs of aging, including:

– fine vertical lines around the mouth, also known as ‘smoker’s lines’

– wrinkles under and around the eye

– loose skin around the jawline and under the chin

– thin and/or sagging neck skin

– cheek wrinkles and hollow cheeks

Profhilo is highly recommended for mature patients looking to improve their skin’s quality and appearance, as well as younger patients seeking an effective preventative measure against first signs of aging.

Compared with Mesotherapy or Skin boosters, the key benefits of Profhilo are:

– quicker treatments with less injections and reduced discomfort

– less chance of bruising

– much longer-lasting results which improve over time

– fewer treatment sessions required

– significantly improves fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity & hydration 

WHAT IS PROFHILO?

– Profhilo is composed of highly purified hyaluronic acid, free from impurities and additives (offering greater safety and reduced side effects).

– Using patented thermal technology IBSA have produced this stable hybrid of high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid at an incredibly high concentration of 32mg/ml, specifically engineered for ‘skin bioremodelling’.

– Profhilo is indicated for the treatment of skin laxity of the face, neck and body.

HOW DOES PROFHILO WORK?

Profhilo has a dual action on the skin:

– Hydrating and stimulating collagen and elastin production to renew your skin from within.

WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?

Results following Profhilo are almost immediately visible, natural-looking yet noticeable rejuvenation of all treated areas; including brighter fresher-looking skin and even improvements to the under eye area.

Profhilo works to remodel your skin:

– stimulates production of all four types of collagen and elastin in the skin (the only product that can do this!)

– improves skin tone, texture, hydration and radiance

– increases firmness and elasticity – for healthier, softer skin with more ‘bounce’

– increases facial fullness, with a tightening and lifting effect

Profhilo delivers results quickly. After a recommended course (two Profhilo appointments, four weeks apart) skin looks deeply hydrated, facial skin appears firmer, and fine lines diminished. Skin tone also looks noticeably smoother and fuller. In mature patients, even deeper wrinkles and facial folds – such as nasolabial lines, the lines that run from the side of the nose to the mouth – are improved, while overall skin texture appears fresher, firmer and more radiant.

Plastic Surgery Dubai | 3 September 2023

A facelift (rhytidectomy) cannot stop the ageing process. What it can do is turn back the clock and restore former beauty. It can remove the most visible signs of ageing by trimming or repositioning excess fat, tightening the underlying muscles, and re-draping the skin of your face and neck. A facelift can be done alone or in conjunction with other procedures such as blepharoplasty, (eyelid tuck), and neck lift.

As part of the aging process which happens to all of us sooner or later our skin progressively loses its elasticity and our muscles tend to slacken. The stresses of daily life, effects of gravity and exposure to sun can be seen on our faces. The folds and smile lines deepen, the corners of the mouth droop, the jaw line sags and the skin of the neck becomes slack. 

Around the eyes, the eyebrows droop and the skin of the eyelids gathers in loose folds. In the skin the first sign is fine wrinkles developing around the lips, at the outer corners of the eye and lines of expression. The rate at which this happens varies from one person to another and is probably determined by our genes. 

Aging of the skin of the face does not necessarily reflect the rate that the rest of our body and mind is ageing and many people feel frustrated that the face they see in the mirror is not the one they feel should be there. Substantial weight loss can produce similar changes in facial appearance to those of the aging process.

WHAT IS FACELIFT AND NECKLIFT SURGERY?

A facelift is an operation to tighten and lift the loose skin of your face below the eyes. (Anything above the eyes is a browlift.) A necklift tightens and lifts the skin of the neck.

WHY HAVE A FACELIFT OR NECKLIFT?

As you age, your skin gets less elastic and droops, and your facial muscles slacken. The natural fat under the skin also sags, making you look older. The rate this happens at varies from person to person, and is probably determined by your genes. The stresses of daily life, the effect of gravity and exposure to the sun also affect your face. Drastic weight loss can also age the face. The rate your face ages does not necessarily reflect the rate that the rest of your body and mind is ageing, and you may feel that the face you see in the mirror is not the one you should have.

A facelift gives the best results if your face and neck have started to sag but your skin still has some elasticity and your bone structure is strong and well defined. Most people who have facelifts are in their 40s to 60s, but facelifts can be done successfully on people in their 70s or 80s.

It should not be obvious that you have had a facelift, but you should look younger, healthier, lively and cheerful.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN BEFORE MY OPERATION?

You will meet your surgeon to talk about why you want surgery and what you want. The surgeon will make a note of any illnesses you have or have had in the past. They will also make a record of any medication you are on, including herbal remedies and medicines that are not prescribed by your doctor. Your surgeon will examine your face and neck, and may take some photographs for your medical records. They will ask you to sign a consent form for taking, storing and using the photographs.

The surgeon will measure your height and weight to make sure that it is safe to do an operation. If you are overweight, or planning to become pregnant, your surgeon may suggest delaying your operation.

A facelift improves the lower half of the face, particularly the jawline. If you have sagging eyebrows and wrinkles on your forehead, your surgeon may suggest a browlift. Loose skin with fine wrinkles, freckles and rough areas will benefit more from a chemical peel or laser resurfacing, which can be performed with a facelift, browlift or necklift.

HOW IS THE SURGERY PERFORMED?

A facelift involves raising and repositioning the skin and soft tissue of the face. During the operation, cuts are made on both sides of the face in front of the ear, extending up along the hairline, just in front of or behind the cartilage, and around behind the earlobe, into the crease behind the ear and then into the lower scalp. 

Occasionally, the surgeon may need to make a small cut under the chin for the necklift part of the surgery.

Sometimes only the skin above the neck is lifted (a facelift only).

Sometimes the neck muscle and the skin over it is just tightened by stitching them together (a necklift only).

Sometimes the neck muscle and the skin over and above it are tightened and then lifted and stitched tightly to the solid structures in front of and behind the ear (a facelift and necklift).

Excess skin is then removed, and the remaining skin is sewn into position.

Fat and tissue is redistributed, and is sometimes added to the face.

HOW CAN I HELP MY OPERATION BE A SUCCESS?

Be as healthy as possible. It is important to keep your weight steady with a good diet and regular exercise. If you intend to lose weight, you should do so before the operation. This allows the surgeon to remove more skin and so achieve a better result. You should avoid taking tablets containing aspirin, as well as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as Voltarol and Indocid, for at least two weeks before the operation as they increase the risk of bleeding.

If you are planning to have your hair permed, bleached or coloured, do this before your operation as fresh scars are sensitive to these chemicals for a few weeks.

If you smoke, stopping at least six weeks before the operation will help to reduce the risk of complications, particularly the risk of the flaps of skin behind the ear losing their blood supply. Do not worry about removing hair near where we will be making cuts, but do have a bath or shower during the 24 hours before your operation to make sure that the area is as clean as possible.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER THE OPERATION

Facelifts and necklifts are usually carried under a general anaesthetic (so you would be asleep) or a local anaesthetic (where the whole area is numbed with injections and you might be sedated). The operation takes between two and five hours. You might be given antibiotics to keep the wound clean. 

You may have drainage tubes in your face or neck to drain away any fluid or blood. These tubes will be taken out when the fluid or blood has stopped draining, usually before you go home. You might go home the same day, but most likely you will stay in hospital overnight. If you do go home on the same day, a responsible adult should stay with you for the night. 

Your face and neck will feel tight and sore. Simple painkillers should be enough to keep you comfortable. 

Plastic Surgery Dubai | 1 September 2023

Body lift surgery is designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs. 

This treatment is popular for individuals who have undergone significant weight loss or have been affected by aging, genetics, or pregnancy.

A body lift is a surgical procedure to remove loose skin and excess tissue after significant weight loss. The procedure offers numerous benefits to those that have lost weight quickly due to bariatric surgery or their own dieting efforts. If you have reached the target number on the scale but do not see the results you were hoping for when you look in the mirror, body contouring surgery may be the right choice for you. 

During your consultation with Dr. Vigo, he will perform a physical evaluation and review your goals for body lift treatment. Together, you will select the most beneficial combination of procedures to provide you with the most dramatic results that will highlight and enhance your features. A full body lift may include any of the following procedures in the upper, mid, and lower sections of your body:

– Abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen for a tighter and more toned mid-section

– Thigh and leg lift removes skin and fat deposits from the thighs and legs for more defined thighs and calves

– Buttock lift can trim skin and fat to lift and reshape the buttocks

Arm lift, or brachioplasty, can remove excess, hanging skin from the upper arms

– Breast lift removes excess skin and tissue to situate the breasts in a higher position

Each of these procedures will remove excess tissue to tighten and tone your skin for improved contours in that specific area. Dr. Vigo emphasizes clear cosmetic goals for all of his patients. 

FULL BODY LIFT BENEFITS

While each of these procedures on their own can produce quality results, when two or more are combined, your results can be even more dramatic. Benefits of a full body lift may include:

– Removal of excess, sagging skin for a slimmer figure and to eliminate 

  health issues such as rashes or skin infections

– Firm, toned, and smoother skin that accentuates your weight loss 

  success

– Elimination of folds of skin, making personal care easier

– Exercise and other physical activities may be easier and more 

  comfortable

– Wider variety of clothing options

– Rejuvenated and more youthful appearance

– Improved confidence and self-image

During your consultation, Dr. Vigo will outline the specific benefits you may see from a full body lift based on the personalized combination of procedures you choose.

CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR NEEDS

Body lifts can be completely customized to the unique needs of each patient. Dr. Vigo is experienced in a wide range of body lift procedures and will help you determine the right procedures for you. In some cases, your lift procedures will be performed simultaneously to provide you with dramatic results with just one time under anesthesia and one recovery period. Other patients might require two or more procedures to reach their desired outcome without sacrificing their safety.

CREATES A SMOOTHER BODY CONTOUR

When you started on your weight loss efforts, you probably had an image in your mind of how your final result would look. That image probably did not include extensive folds of loose skin hanging over those newly sculpted areas, marring your overall profile. By removing skin folds, you can streamline your body contour to get much closer to the image you had in your mind before you began your journey. The cosmetic improvement can do much to increase your self-esteem and your self-confidence, as well as your satisfaction with your weight loss success.

UNDERSTANDING THE PROCEDURE

During a body lift, Dr. Vigo may take one of several approaches, depending on the level of correction needed. The location and amount of excess skin to be removed is another factor, as is any personal preference you may have about your final appearance.

Typically, a body lift begins with a circumferential incision that extends around the lower body. This gives Dr. Vigo access to the treatment areas, including the belly, waist, hips, thighs and buttocks. Next, excess skin and fat are removed, and the remaining skin is repositioned and re-draped. Liposuction may also be incorporated to help remove fatty deposits in the treatment area. Finally, the incisions are closed and the recovery process begins.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most men and women experience discomfort following their body lift, including soreness at the incision site and initial swelling. As these dissipate, more well-defined lower body contours are seen. Most patients can return to work in a week or two. However, more active pursuits should wait until you feel more comfortable. A body lift helps you feel better about your body following major weight loss or other physical changes that left loose skin behind. Although it’s important to maintain realistic expectations, you can expect to see a permanent improvement in your lower body contours as long as you maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.

Body lift, or body plastic surgery, helps reduce saggy, loose appearance and irregularities on the surface of the skin due to poor elasticity, or laxity in the central area of the body. Loss of elasticity may occur as a result of significant weight loss, aging, sun damage, and genetics, among various other factors. This is a common surgery for patients who have lost weight after weight loss surgery (bariatric procedures).

WHAT BODY LIFTS CAN TREAT

A body lift can help your body appear smoother, more toned, and shapelier overall. Body lifts can treat the appearance of excess skin, fat, and cellulite by removing these tissues from various parts of the body. If you are bothered by the appearance of loose, sagging skin or fat tissue in multiple parts of your body, you may benefit from body lift surgery. After weight loss many patients believe they’re able to achieve greater overall satisfaction and quality of life when they look and feel better.

To achieve the best results, it’s recommended that you maintain a normal body weight for at least a year – especially if you’ve just recently achieved significant weight loss – before moving forward to body lift procedures. It may also be best to postpone abdominal body lifts if you’re planning for further weight loss or future pregnancies. The best way to determine whether you’re a good candidate for body lift surgery is through a one-on-one plastic surgery consultation.

PREPARING FOR BODY LIFT SURGERY

The initial step in any surgical procedure is consultation. Before your body lift surgery, be prepared to discuss your expectations with Dr. Vigo.

Botox Dubai | 30 August 2023

Botox injections are delivered through a number of planned and exact injection sites. The item can recognise the face thanks to incredibly tiny microneedles. They are specifically made to lessen the discomfort of the infusion so that your treatment will be as relaxing and pain-free as is reasonably possible. In any event, we do offer patients desensitising cream if it is requested.

The injections themselves often just take a few minutes, but if that’s what you’ll remember the most, we may want to follow up with you for some time afterward or provide you counselling before treatment. In order to guarantee that you get the finest care possible and that your welfare is always supported, do this.

Numerous conditions, including hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) and juvenile cerebral paralysis, are treated with Botox. It is extremely well protected and has a tonne of clinical trials and eligibility requirements to support it. Corrective treatment employs minute doses of botulinum toxin to temporarily relax the face muscles and deter misuse. This will gradually make face wrinkles and kinks less noticeable, giving you a more youthful appearance.

Botox is most typically used on the following areas:

Between the eyebrows on the forehead is a little area known as the glabella (“Elevens”). We use this muscle to talk regularly, therefore it’s probable that some of our most noticeable kinks and notches are found here. Your face’s highlights may be mellowed, and lines may be dramatically reduced, by relaxing the muscle and tension in this area.

Some people have temple discomfort, which is typically treated at the same time as the glabella and the crow’s feet. As we age, the fat pads in front of us and the facial muscles migrate and change position, giving us an aged, jaded, and generally unpleasant appearance.  

The crow’s feet that frame our eyes frequently connote evil in the minds of our patients. Even while we occasionally may completely remove these wrinkles, most people will notice a softer and more youthful appearance around the eyes following Botox treatment.

Plastic Surgery Dubai | 28 August 2023

Some men can think they have one or both of their breasts that are unusually large. A hormonal imbalance or being severely overweight, which can increase oestrogen levels and cause breast tissue to expand, might cause this disorder, known as gynecomastia. Males with this issue can choose to have breast reduction surgery. After a large weight loss that has caused the skin in that area to sag, it can also be utilised to tighten the breast area’s skin. It is not the ideal choice for obese men with huge breasts that are simply extra fat.

Gynecomastia, or the benign (non-cancerous) growth of male breast tissue, can be caused by a variety of reasons. Your medication or a hormonal imbalance may be to blame. A contributing factor might be recreational drug usage or alcoholism. I’ll discuss the cause of your gynecomastia with you. In addition to expanding the breast and nipple, gynecomastia can also be uncomfortable and make the nipple sensitive.

Some cases of gynecomastia will get better on their own without any kind of medical help. If it is thought that one of your prescription medications is what caused your gynecomastia, it may go away with the substitution or cessation of that medication. Gynaecomastia can be uncomfortable and unsightly, but it is not dangerous and won’t hurt you if you have it. Once cancer has been ruled out, many men are comfortable with no treatment. Another type of therapy is the administration of drugs. Although they might not cause the breasts to shrink, these medications typically effectively reduce discomfort and sensitivity. Breast surgery is the third available treatment option.

Liposuction

Gynecomastia instances may resolve on their own, without the need for medical intervention. If one of your prescription drugs is suspected of being the culprit behind your gynecomastia, it can go away if you switch to another one or stop using that drug. Gynaecomastia is not harmful and won’t harm you if you have it, yet it can be painful and ugly. Many men are content with no treatment once cancer has been ruled out. The use of medication is another form of treatment. Even though they could not diminish the breasts, these drugs normally work well to lessen discomfort and sensitivity. The third viable therapy is breast surgery.

Removal of gynecomastia

I’ll cut around the nipple to remove the breast tissue during excisional surgery. This might be done concurrently with breast tissue liposuction.

Male breast reduction

It could be necessary to remove additional skin and tissue if the breast is particularly big. It will result in additional scars. The amount of skin that must be removed will determine the extent of scarring. 

The dressings can be removed after 7 to 10 days, and you should be able to return to work after one week. For the first three weeks after the surgery, refrain from heavy lifting and vigorous physical activity. In two to three weeks, the majority of males resume their usual schedules. Your visit to the clinic will be scheduled for 7–10 days from then so that the dressings and drain(s) may be removed and the wounds can be checked. You will also be evaluated after your procedure, once the swelling and bruising have completely gone down.

Tummy Tuck Dubai | 26 August 2023

An abdominoplasty can shrink your waist by removing extra, loose skin and fat and enhancing the muscles in your abdominal wall. Additionally, it might greatly but not entirely reduce the stretch marks on your lower stomach. It is widely acknowledged that large central areas and weak muscles alter the shape of the body at any age, especially after pregnancy and significant weight loss. Most patients claimed that after using this tactic, they felt more confident.

Considering that losing abdominal fat, extra skin, or stretch marks won’t be possible with diet and exercise alone. supposing that your mid-region’s health has been impacted by pregnancy or major weight loss. if you think your bulging stomach looks unattractive.  

This procedure will be done by your surgeon, who will also use sutures to straighten your abs after removing the loose stomach skin. Your doctor will examine your abdomen to locate your new navel, the incision sites, and the centre of your stomach. A topical anaesthetic called lidocaine will be administered along with epinephrine, a vasoconstrictor that prevents bleeding by constricting veins.

The crucial stomach fold will be sliced from one hipbone to the next over the pubic hill. Your navel is sliced once more during a complete abdominoplasty. Your surgeon will choose for a more restricted cut in a belly fold that is smaller than average. 

The position of your navel will then be stamped by your specialist. Even after the skin around it has been repositioned, the navel typically stays in the same place. The expert cuts a hole in your skin and rewraps it around your navel while simultaneously sewing it. To seal the access locations, your expert will use tissue sticks, stitches, staples, or Steri-Strips.

The surgeon would often implant at least one channel during a complete abdominoplasty to prevent liquid accumulation that might strain the cut. The channel is an oval-shaped, sturdy plastic cylinder that enters the body through a very small hole just below the original incision.  

Cosmetic Clinic Dubai | 22 August 2023

You probably already know that Botox can be used to correct faults, but it also has uses besides aesthetic improvement and can be used to treat a number of disorders.

You may be surprised to learn that the popular Botox therapy has advantageous side effects that help address mental health conditions like depression. Botox injections block the chemical signals from the nerves that cause muscles to contract.
