The difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary
is just that little extra."

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
