What is a Cosmetic Procedure? Any procedure that involves surgery which is specific to aesthetically
enhancing ones physical appearance is called cosmetic surgery. Sure
exercise, skin care and nutrition make a world of difference and
can to a very large extent help with the way we look, however in
this fast paced world, people rarely if ever have the time. And so they
opt for cosmetic procedures to enhance their looks.
Types of Cosmetic Procedures:
• Facelifts: Also known as rhytidectomy, face lifts involve
permanent removal of fat, re positioning and supporting muscles
and connective tissues. Facelifts work by removing years from a
persons face and giving it a more naturally young and fresh look.
Face lifts are a combination of several cosmetic procedures like
eyelid surgery, brow and forehead lifts, blepheroplasty, mid-face
lifts and skin resurfacing.
• Blepheroplasty: This surgical procedure
takes care of the drooping effect around the eyes that adds age
to a person’s appearance. By effectively removing fat pouches
that cause heavy upper lids and baggy lower lids, blepheroplasty
can get rid of the tired and old look.
• Brow and Forehead Lift: By making tiny incisions within
the hair, a small video connected scope is passed under the skin
and the tissues are released then repositioned and secured into
position. This gives a natural lift to the brow and forehead giving
a very open and bright eyed look.
• Mid-face Lift: This procedure targets the area in between
the eyes and the chin. A mid-face lift gives a fine definition to
the contours of the cheek bone and takes care of circles under the
eyes.
• Botox: A very popular and non surgical procedure botox is
excellent when treating crow’s feet, fine lines and forehead
furrows. By relaxing the muscles wrinkles can be smoothened out
and since it is a non surgical procedure patients can resume normal
activities almost immediately.
• Skin Resurfacing: Skin resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure
that involves reducing wrinkles, smoothen the skin and even the
complexion by using laser or certain chemicals. Advanced monitoring
devices and anesthesia makes a quick recovery possible for most
patients, thus cutting down on costs.
Health and medical tourism - Cosmetic Procedures for the Body: Body contouring surgery.
Body contouring is a very popular cosmetic procedure. By taking
out stubborn fat from areas like the neck, upper arms, hips, tummy,
sides, thighs a cosmetic surgeon can literally re-shape a body.
First saline water and local anesthetic is flooded into the targeted
area. Then by using a thin liposculpture vacuum the fat is gently
suctioned out.
Other forms of body contouring are abdomioplasty or a tummy tuck,
breast lift, breast reduction and cosmetic breast surgery. To enhance
the shape of their breasts many women go in for implants. Previously
silicone gel was used in the implants, but now saline implants are
commonly used.
As with any medical procedure a certain amount of restrain and background
check is required when considering a health tourism vacation.Clear any and all doubts about the procedure
and choose a qualified experienced surgeon.
