Minimally invasive methods in plastic surgery
Many people of the 21st century would like to improve their appearance, but the fear of "lying under the knife" stops them from doing it. The risk of postoperative complications, and the occurrence of side effects associated with surgical intervention, is always there. Also, an obstacle on the way to Today non-invasive( non-surgical) methods of plastic surgery are used in many areas of aesthetic medicine. Minimally invasive methods are used to eliminate local problems of the face and body, to combat sagging of the skin, localized fat deposits, wrinkles and irregularities.
Minimally invasive surgery methods help to acquire desired facial dimples, improve facial lines, correct wrinkles and crow's feet, increase berries, and much more. Let's consider specific procedures.
Slits on cheeks.
Those who are not gifted with beautiful dimples on the cheeks can benefit from a simple surgical procedure called dimple-ectomy. Before the procedure, the surgeon will discuss with you the exact location of the dimple, then mark this place with a marker, then through a small incision on the inside of the cheek with a special instrument will perform a resection of the mucous and dermal layer of the cheek. After that the internal soft tissues are pulled together by a surgical string, as a result of which a dimple is formed, which during the first two to three weeks after the procedure will be visible even without a smile. After resorption of the filament, the surface of the skin will straighten, but the formed inner scar will remain, which will provide a dimple during a smile. The duration of such a procedure will not take more than an hour.
Facelift.
Another minimally invasive technique is facelift. Today, sagging skin can be returned to its former elastic state without the aid of a complex surgical operation, it is only necessary to apply the Siluet-Lift implant. These are surgical threads made of propylene. The thread is provided with soft hooks that easily resolve. To introduce such a thread, the surgeon makes tiny( 2-3mm.) Incisions in the scalp and four small punctures along the lower perimeter of the cheek. Hooks thread fixed to the soft tissues of the face, due to which there is a lift. Over time( 2-3 months) hooks are adsorbed, and in their place appears connective tissue, which allows you to securely fix the soft tissue of the face in a new position, and the threads will serve as a basis for maintaining the effect of rejuvenation. Punctures and cuts are so small that a simple patch will be enough to disinfect them and the patient will be able to go home that day. The only evidence of an operation in the first three days can be small bruises and swelling.
Correction of wrinkles.
For the correction of deep wrinkles in plastic surgery, a non-surgical method of cross resection of wrinkles, folds, scars and irregularities has been developed. The method is ideal for the correction of interbrown and nasolabial folds. Cross resection is a method in which a special disposable cutting cable cuts off a layer of skin from the underlying muscles. The liberated skin, due to its elasticity, contracts and forms a new healthy appearance, and in the place of the cut collagen tissue is formed, preventing the return to its former position. As a result, you quickly and practically painlessly get effective wrinkle smoothing and a natural healthy appearance, with a preserved face mimicry. The procedure takes no more than 30 minutes of your time and does not require hospitalization.
Injection with hyaluronic acid.
Injections of hyalurons with acid, also belong to the number of minimally invasive methods of plastic surgery. The new preparation RESTYLANE Subq is created on the basis of hyarulonic acid and is intended to increase the volume of tissues in the area of the cheekbones and over the of the chin. The drug is administered as a subcutaneous injection. The procedure takes no more than 30 minutes, the patient does not need to be hospitalized. Use of the drug provides predictable correction of the face after the procedure. It also has a minimal list of contraindications and is easily tolerated by most patients.
Lipofilling.
Lipofilling is the simplest procedure for changing the shape of the body and face with the help of transplanting your own fat cells, from the areas of their excess finding. With lipofilling you can change the shape of the lips, cheeks, chin, nasolabial folds, face, legs, buttocks. The undoubted advantage of the procedure is its low traumatism, a rare occurrence of adverse reactions, ease of conduct and the absence of a recovery period after the procedure.
Tightening the buttocks with "Brazilian threads".
Buttock lift by "Brazilian threads" is one of the most common minimally invasive techniques of plastic surgery. The technique of such an operation is to implant in the subcutaneous layers of strong polypropylene filaments with microcones. Threads are introduced through a cut no larger than 1.5 mm, and the tightening is provided by cones. The secret of the Brazilian threads is that after a few years the implanted threads can be pulled up again without doing any special work. The procedure is carried out on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia for half an hour. The results are visible right after the operation. After the operation, no body scars and evidence of the procedure are left. Within a month after the operation, it is recommended to wear a tightening belt.
Results. Summarizing the above, we come to the conclusion that minimally invasive plastic surgery is not only fashionable and beautiful, but also quickly, safely and effectively. In the pursuit of beauty, the demand for aesthetic surgery products is growing year by year, so more and more clinics are opening, due to the high competition in this area, there has recently been a noticeable decline in prices for plastic services. The downward trend in prices means that the availability of procedures is increasing, which has a positive effect on the external appearance of the population of our country.
