When to apply make-up after double eyelid surgery?

Image
Most girls and women apply make-up to have bigger and fresh eyes. To do that, we also use different colors to emphasize some points of our eyes as well. Patients who did double eyelid surgery or blepharoptosis correction often ask when they can start applying eye make-up.  The answer is after 2~3 weeks when the stitches are removed. One can apply make-up when the post-surgery swelling and redness subside to some extent. If you put on make-up before this period, you can cause an injury by rubbing the skin, which will negatively affect the eventual result of the surgery. When you apply make-up, that also involves removing it before sleep, so there might be an injury while removing the make-up. Therefore, it is advisable and safe to follow time for putting on the make-up.  Another most common question is regarding when it is possible to do an eyelash extension procedure. The plastic surgeon recommends doing eyelash extension procedures one month after the stitches are removed. It...

What can plastic surgery give men?

Image
Plastic surgery for men is a relatively new thing. From history, all men considered plastic surgery or other beauty procedures as designed only for women. However, these days men also try their best to look as good as they can, and they are undergoing different types of cosmetic procedures as well.

How to correct drooping eyelids?

Previously, we discussed what blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery ) is and looked at why it is conducted and who are the best candidates for that surgery. This article will explain why some people have drooping eyelids and how to correct them. All of us know well that when we do not get enough sleep, we start feeling tired and sleepy, and our eyelids close. However, in some people, this is not the case. Even if they get enough amount of sleep and feel refreshed, their eyelids will still look droopy by obstructing their vision. Medically speaking, this condition of drooping eyelids is known as ptosis, to be more exact, blepharoptosis (blepharo- eyelids, ptosis- fall, falling).  What might be the causes of blepharoptosis? Well, blepharoptosis can be congenital or acquired. Babies born with blepharoptosis have very weak or imperfect muscles raising the eyelids (levator palpebrae superioris).

Rhinoplasty:Dorsal hump reduction.

Image
One of the most common types of rhinoplasty surgeries performed at She's Plastic Surgery Clinic is dorsal hump reduction. In this article, I will explain what the dorsal humps are, the causes, and what you can expect from the rhinoplasty to remove it.  The dorsum of the nose is a bone-cartilage structure that connects the nose to the face. Some refer to it as the "nose bridge". When we look at the nose, there might be some humps or bumps on it, instead of a straight line or slope. So these irregularities are called dorsal humps or dorsal bumps. There are several reasons why the nose bridge can develop bumps. First of all, it can be due to genetic predisposition to develop dorsal humps from childhood or during the stage of puberty when the nose is still not fully developed along with other organs of the body. Nose trauma or injuries such as a nasal fracture. Especially, when the bone starts to recover unevenly after the fracture.  Dr. Kim, a board-certified plastic surgeon...

Blepharoplasty. What type of surgery is it?

Image
The medical term "blepharoplasty" is a kind of surgery that corrects the saggy or droopy eyelids by removing excess skin, fat tissues, and parts of muscles. The word "blepharoplasty" itself comes from the Green language "blepharon" signifying "an eyelid" and "plasty" - to form, create, or act. In a simple language, it is an eyelid-forming procedure. In today's article, we will be discussing important things about blepharoplasty one should know.  Let us find out why blepharoplasty is done in the first place. The main reason people undergo eyelid surgery is to repair saggy or droopy eyelids as well as bags under the eyes. It will correct a person's appearance and helps look younger. As we age, our muscles in the eyelids weaken. It is one of the most common causes of droopy eyelids.

How to slim down your arms?

Image
Most women dream of having slim and smooth arms. However, they may have a hard time losing excess fat in their arms even after strenuous exercises and diet. At She’s Plastic Surgery, you can undergo liposuction surgery that effectively improves the upper arm area above the elbows by removing excess fat. As a result, your upper arms will get a more defined and toned appearance. The plastic surgeon makes incisions in the inner part of the upper arm on each side and suctions excessive fatty deposits. Special cannulas are used to ensure that the procedure is safe and non-traumatic. They also maximize the skin tightening effect and help the skin to retract easily over the treated area. These cannulas are attached to a vacuum device, which draws the fat cells out of the body by suctioning them.  Sometimes small drains are placed for 1-2 days to remove excess blood  and liquid after the operation. The operation will last approximately 1-2 hours depending on the amount of fat a patien...

Male breast reduction (gynecomastia)

Image
What is gynecomastia? For most people, this medical term might sound unfamiliar. However, when put simply, gynecomastia is one of the most common conditions in boys and men. Gynecomastia is a condition of a man having enlarged breasts like a woman's. If we look at the etymology of this term, it originates from the ancient Greek language "gyneco" meaning "woman" and "mastia" for "breast." What are the causes of gynecomastia? Well, the abnormal increase in the number of breast glands, as well as the imbalance of male and female hormones (testosterone & estrogen), contribute to the formation of gynecomastia in men and boys. Every man from infants, teenagers experiencing puberty, and even older men can have this condition. Gynecomastia may go away on its own with time in Infants and teenagers because the normal balance of hormones can be achieved.  However, when this condition is not passing in adults, that may cause psychological problems su...

The importance of self-care after Liposuction surgery.

Image
In the previous posts, we have discussed the details of liposuction surgery. Also, we have looked at male liposuction which does not differ from the liposuction procedure that women undergo. Most people tend to think that once they do liposuction surgery, the efficacy of the surgery can last forever. It is not true. Post-surgery care is as equally important as the surgery itself. In today’s article, let us find out why it (self-care) is such an important thing.  If one does not follow post-surgery instructions, the yo-yo effect, weight cycling might be expected. Even when one undergoes the liposuction and removes fat, not taking care of oneself can lead to the accumulation of fat cells again. Therefore, it is vital to maintain the result of the surgery with diet and physical exercises. Such a practice can immensely contribute to weight loss and general health.  The compression garments that one should wear after the surgery shorten the recovery time and help alleviate potentia...

Everyone wants to look fit and slim. To achieve that, we do our best by exercising, going on a special diet. It is how everyone wants to remove the squishy amount of fat on a particular body part. However, in the short-term, it is not easy to get rid of excessive fat. Then, how to solve this problem?  Liposuction surgery is not only about removing the excess deposits of fat on the body, but a body balance and right proportion can be achieved through liposuction. The reason that makes most men not undergo liposuction surgery is that they tend to think that liposuction is the surgery designed solely for women. Another reason is that because of more muscles and fat, compared to women, they jump to the conclusion that it is impossible to perform liposuction.  Here, I would like to debunk this myth that men also can have liposuction surgery. The male body does not only consist of muscles. If men do not have enough time to exercise and lack physical activities, liposuction is the be...
