Plastic Surgery Nowadays

For many, rhinoplasty is associated with a complex surgery, lots of scars, blood and a long recovery period. However, today there is a possibility to undergo microsurgery. They use modern endoscopes that can magnify the image many times over.

This procedure requires only a few punctures of the mucosa and the inside of the nasal passages. This preserves the integrity of the internal structure of the nose, does not affect the fine vessels and nerve endings, and eliminates the risk of damaging the nasal septum.

The most popular destination among medical tourists for rhinoplasty is Turkey. Turkish specialists have extensive experience in creating the desired nose shape and help with even the most complex cases. In addition, the clinics offer package deals on rhinoplasty that allow patients to save significantly, as the price already includes all consumables, medicines, accommodation and food.

Most myths in plastic surgery are centred around silicone implants. Probably the only way to dispel these myths is to create a radically new product, the safety of which would be difficult to doubt. And this has happened. Modern implants are filled with a new generation of gel, in which cross-linkages between molecules are stronger, and therefore, there is no risk of leakage. The changes also apply to the shape of the implants, which destroys yet another myth of the unnaturalness of artificial breasts. Anatomically shaped implants look the most natural. However, this form of implant surgery is harder to perform.

Furthermore, round breast implants have recently been developed that are capable of changing the shape of the breast depending on the position of the body, just as natural breasts do. These are, for example, the Motiva implants of the American manufacturer. The material has an electronic chip that transmits all necessary information about its condition if necessary.

Today, clinics offer breast augmentation packages to make patients as comfortable as possible in the decision-making process.

Breast reconstruction is probably one of the most difficult challenges for doctors at the moment. The best plastic surgeons in the world are trying their best to make sure that a woman does not lose her femininity in the fight against cancer. Using innovative methods of surgery, modern doctors destroy the stereotype that cancer takes away beauty for good. Today, breasts can be restored using tissue from another part of the body or using implants.

Microvascular surgical options that use the patient’s tissue (most often from the abdomen, thighs or buttocks) are called DIEP and SGAP. The latest innovation in microvascular surgery is the SADIE method, a new technique for breast reconstruction that combines the advantages of the two previous types of procedures. It avoids the “mismatch” of vessels, which can lead to tissue rejection.

Reconstructive surgery with implants is also developing. Today, in addition to simultaneous mastectomy (breast removal) with reconstruction, doctors perform staged breast reconstruction. This method involves placing an expander under the skin, on top of a woman’s pectoral muscle. It is gradually filled with a special solution, and as soon as the skin is stretched and blood flow returns, the implants are placed. Today, some expanders can later become full-fledged implants, making a second surgery unnecessary.

Modern methods of abdominoplasty make this surgery safer, faster, and of higher quality. Mini-abdominoplasty is available at advanced plastic surgery centres. Surgeons use a technique that tightly fixes the skin of the abdomen, eliminating the need for drains. Through the use of progressive tension sutures, doctors can make the incision much lower, and for most people, the scar remains less noticeable.

The mini-tummy tuck is often performed as an outpatient procedure and requires less recovery time. Whereas standard surgery took 4-6 weeks to recover, patients now only need 10-14 days.

Abdominoplasty combined with liposuction provides excellent results and is ideal for those who want to get rid of fat in the desired areas in a short time. The Body-Jet system provides less bruising, more aesthetically pleasing results and virtually no pain. In addition, there is less chance of skin trauma and muscle tone problems than with laser liposuction or smart-lipo.

Modern plastic surgery has methods of breast and buttock augmentation without implants.

A procedure that has gained popularity around the world in the last couple of years is called lipofilling. It is an augmentation of the breasts or buttocks with the patient’s fatty tissue. It first involves the liposuction of fat from places where it is undesirable. Then the fat cells are cleaned and injected into the desired area.

One of the most popular procedures of this type is called the Brazilian butt lift. It has become a real alternative for those patients who want to increase their buttocks but are not ready for implants.

Plastic surgery is not just about manipulating the body, but a process for achieving a person’s life goals. The moment is approaching when patients will not think about whether aesthetic satisfaction is worth the risks and consequences. Today, plastic surgery does not force a person to choose between two options but gets rid of the problem, as modern medicine should.
