Cosmetology Treatment

Common Types of Cosmetic Treatments

Following are the most common types of Cosmetic treatments:

• Facelift (Meloplasty): In this procedure, both the scalp and the skin surrounding the ear are cut. Following its separation from the underlying tissue, it is stitched and pulled tighter. Skin leftovers are cut off. Two to four hours may be needed for the procedure, which can be performed under local or General Anesthesia. The Face will be swollen and bruised for a few weeks. After Surgery, numbness or an uncomfortable tight sensation are common side effects that can last for months.
• Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): In this procedure, the eyelids are cut all the way to the outer corners where the "crow's feet" wrinkles appear. Excess fat and skin are eliminated. Remaining wrinkles may also be treated with Laser Resurfacing. For several weeks, the eyes may remain swollen and bruised. Vision impairment, excessive tear production, and Eye shape changes (Usually transient) may happen consequently.
• Chemical Peel: The outermost layers of skin are removed with a chemical peel. The face is wiped with a solution, and it can either be left exposed or covered with tape or lotion. The skin is burned by the chemicals, and new growth is encouraged during the healing process. Although deep burns eliminate the most wrinkles, they also raise the possibility of infection and scarring.
• Dermabrasion: Under local or General Anesthesia, the face is treated with a tool that resembles an electric sander. The rapidly rotating pad's rough surface rubs against the skin. While deep dermabrasion is the most effective at removing wrinkles, it also raises the possibility of side effects like infection and scarring.
• Wrinkle Reduction: Friction can be used to minimize wrinkles, or a number of technologies can be used to "plump them out." In laser skin resurfacing, the skin is burned by a Laser Beam. Small doses of injectable fillers can paralyze the underlying muscles that cause wrinkles in the skin. For minor wrinkles and fine lines on the face, this may be a safe and effective short-term solution. Wrinkles can be smoothed out by piping collagen or fat injections along them. Frown lines between the Eyebrows can occasionally be treated with Botulinum Toxin Type A.
• External Ear Surgery (Otoplasty): Repositioning ears that protrude from the head is possible at any point after the age of five or six. In order to reduce or remodel the excess cartilage, the fold of skin behind the ear is cut. The entire process takes about an hour. In order to help control the swelling and bruises, bandages must be worn for a few weeks.
• Nose Surgery (Rhinoplasty): Nasal incisions are typically used for Nose Surgery, which leaves no visible scars. The Nose is reshaped and Bone and Cartilage are cut. Splints and nasal packs might be necessary. It takes about two hours to complete this process. It could take three or four months for the swelling and bruises to completely go away. Infections and bleeding are relatively uncommon complications. To balance the profile, a chin implant may occasionally be placed concurrently.
• Facial Implants: A receding chin or flat cheekbones can be filled in with facial implants. A small cut is made to insert the implant in a hidden location, like inside the mouth.
• Lip Enhancement: Numerous procedures that provide either short-term or long-term results can be used to fatten thin lips. Both collagen and fat injections are eventually reabsorbed by the body. It is possible to insert a permanent implant through the lip that resembles a small foam rod.
• Liposuction: The process of Liposuction involves removing Fat from the Arms, Throat, Thighs, Buttocks, and Abdomen. A strong suction pump is used to draw out the fat after a small tube, known as a cannula, is placed through a skin incision. To help the skin contract and contour, a pressure garment must be worn for a few months. One of the complications could be a corrugated appearance due to the skin's inability to contract. A Lipectomy is a procedure in which excess skin and fat are removed.
• Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): The muscles beneath the belly are tightened, and extra skin and fat are scraped off. It is sometimes necessary to move the navel. Incisions are made at "bikini line" in order to minimize the visibility of scarring. General anesthesia is used for this procedure. After surgery, it's normal to experience numbness and an uncomfortable tightness that can last for several months. The development of fluid pockets and infection are complications.
• Breast Augmentation Surgery (Breast Implants): In this procedure, saline or silicone implants are inserted in order to augment or enlarge the breasts. The implant is pushed through an incision made in the armpit or beneath the breast. It can be placed in front of or behind the pectoral muscle of the chest. For a few weeks, there will be swelling and bruises. The development of hard scar tissue surrounding the implant, implant deflation, and implants are some complications associated with it.
• Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty): Under each Breast and around the Nipple Areola, incisions are made, excess skin and fat are removed, the remaining breast tissue is remodeled, and the nipples are repositioned and attached in place. The scars may not go away for up to a year, but they will always be visible, and complications include decreased nipple sensation.
