The difference between the ordinary and the
extraordinary
is just that little extra."
Plastic surgery: a combination of treatments for body aesthetics
in balance.
Sometimes one cosmetic procedure is sufficient
to achieve the desired result, but for a total face or body rejuvenation,
a combined approach often gives the best results.
 |
To get rid of those signs of aging and tiredness, a combined
approach can be desired. For example; a mini face lift, fore
head lift, eyelid correction and a Peeling can give
the wanted, anti aging, result. |
|
Deep wrinkles, between the nose and the corners of the mouth,
can be filled with Bio-Alcamid® during the same surgery. |
|
Rejuvenation of the face goes often hand in hand with rejuvenation
of the body: a breast lift with liposuction, of tummy, stomach
and thighs, are frequently asked. |
|
Ear correction, nose correction, Botox
anti wrinkle treatment, filling of lips, augmentation of cheekbones,
etc… can complete the more general rejuvenating surgery. |
A thorough analysis of the possibilities, your wishes and
expectations is the most important step to a successful treatment.
The expertise of your plastic surgeon plays a crucial role to
achieve the best results.
THE PROCEDURE
Most treatments can be completed during 1 surgical session. For
extensive face and body surgery, sometimes, a second theatre session
is recommended.
THE SEDATION
Extensive surgery under general anaesthesia can have many risks
and side effects.
There is no necessity to have a general anaesthesia
for cosmetic plastic surgery!
All combined surgeries can be done under intravenous sedation
!
With more efficient painkilling, only intravenous sedation is
required. You will be asleep and feel no pain. However there is
no need for you to be connected to a respirator machine and you
will not receive any medication which may compromise your own
capacity to breathe, swallow or move.
Therefore, when waking up after surgery, you are much less
likely to suffer the side effects and risks of a traditional general
narcosis.
For some cosmetic surgeries you may prefer a local anaesthetic.
After injection, you will feel no pain but will be fully conscious,
as at the dentists
