Ear pinning surgery for prominent ears

Image
  Many people have been concerned about the appearance of their ears since early childhood. They have been dreaming about corrective surgery through middle and high school. However, for some people, this concern doesn’t stop even in adulthood. They try to camouflage their ears with hairstyling or avoid wearing earrings, and other types of accessories. Otoplasty is a surgery that refers to the cosmetic surgical correction of the prominent ears. The operation includes the natural-looking reshaping of the ear folds and making them closer to the head. It significantly reduces the prominence of the ears and creates a beautiful ear shape. At SHE’S Plastic Surgery Clinic, the plastic surgeon makes an incision behind the ears, folds, and sutures the ear cartilage so that it sets back and looks smaller. After the surgery, your ears will be wrapped with special gauzes dressings. You may feel slight discomfort and swelling in the treatment area for 1-2 weeks. More about Otoplasty for prominent ea

The lower eyelids and midface areas are some of the most important areas that contribute significantly to the overall facial features. People usually pay much attention to the midfacial area. However, many people experience the first signs of aging and the loss of skin elasticity specifically in this area. That is why some people feel insecure when the skin starts to age, specifically in this area. Today I will tell you more about the surgery that is comprised of both Lower blepharoplasty and Midface lift. You will get a more refreshed and youthful look and get rid of facial wrinkles. The combination of Lower eyelid surgery and Midface lift can improve the lower eyelids, eliminate extra skin and fat tissue on the cheek areas, and simultaneously elevate the saggy facial muscles. What’s more, this type of cosmetic surgery improves the nasolabial folds. The incision is hidden under the eyelashes on the lower eyelids. You may have some bruising and swelling after the surgery lasting for 1-

First time Botox?

Image
  Many patients who are new to Botox injections do not know which Botox to get. What is the most effective if one is doing Botox procedure for the first time, and what is the difference among different products?     We usually recommend starting their first Botox procedure with Korean Botulax. The reason why we recommend the Korean one is because customers might not know how Botox feels.     Since Botox temporarily blocks the muscles, you cannot move the muscles. After getting a sense of how Botox works, one can consider trying Botox by other manufacturers.     The efficacy of Botox injection varies depending on which product you are using. We use three types of Botox: Botulax (Korea), Xeomin(Germany), and Allergan (USA). Korean botox lasts three months, German one lasts four months, and American botox lasts six months respectively.     In conclusion, we recommend having the first Botox injection done with the Korean Botulax.    

Can I go to work the next day after the plastic surgery

Image
    Most working people plan their plastic surgeries for their vacation. However, not everyone has the spare time to do that because there are when cases when they have to commute to work the next day after the surgery.     Is it okay to return to daily activities the next day after the surgery? Whether you must rest or not the next day after the surgery might vary and depend on the type of the surgery. For example, in the case of breast augmentation surgery in which a person is given general anesthesia, will need a sufficient amount of time and rest for recovery.     One can resume daily activities the next day after rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, and face wrinkle removal surgeries.     Even if one works, one must be very careful about the surgery site. They have to protect the surgery area.  

Treatment of Palmar Hyperhidrosis

Image
        Some people experience uncontrollable and abnormal hands sweating. This condition called palmar hyperhidrosis may cause much stress and embarrassment and decrease confidence level. Therefore, people may feel reluctant and embarrassed to shake other people’s hands. Fortunately, there is a treatment that helps treat this condition. One of the effective ways to make your palms less sweaty is getting Botox injected into your hands.             Botox injection is a highly effective treatment for sweaty palms and hyperhidrosis. Botox is an FDA -approved product that consists of botulinum toxin A. This injection effectively reduces hands sweating for 4-6 months. To make the injection less painful, we preliminarily apply an anesthetic. You may have a slightly prickling feeling during the treatment. Botox temporarily blocks the activation of nerves on the sweat glands.       It is better to avoid drinking alcoholic drinks and doing hardsports after Botox injections. It will take around

Should I remove all my accessories before the surgery?

Image
    We usually inform our patients to take off all the accessories before the surgery. Therefore, many clients want to know the reason why they cannot wear the accessory.   Patients are asked to remove the accessory because of bleeding. During plastic surgery, there might occur bleeding. The doctor uses a medical device to stop bleeding.     One might get skin burned if they have any accessory or metal objects on the body. That is why we insist that patients remove all types of accessory or metal objects before the surgery for the sake of safety.

Non-surgical body fat removal

Image
Perhaps you have been thinking about getting rid of retaining fat on a specific area of your body. However, you may not be ready for surgical Liposuction. There is a very effective solution that replaces Liposuction, involves less incision, and removes rather than dissolves fat. It can also be considered light liposuction. At SHE’S Plastic Surgery, we named this treatment Injective liposuction. In this article, I will explain to you more about the treatment and how it actually works. Injective liposuction is not the injection lipolysis or fat dissolving injection. This is the mini liposuction procedure that removes stubborn fat on the treatment areas with the help of a thin cannula. One syringe removes 50 cc of the fat tissue. However, 50cc may include not only fat but also blood and bodily liquid. Since the incision is minimal, you will not have a shorter recovery period and have a very slight bruising. However, the treatment doesn’t fit those patients who are too overweight or obese.

Breast enlargement

Image
  Breast enlargement is a plastic surgery that augments the size of the breasts. A doctor uses an implant to achieve this. Implants are more common than fat being transferred to increase the size.     A doctor makes a 5~7cm incision either underneath the breast crease or in the armpit area. After he inserts an implant.     It is less painful when the implant is inserted through the breast crease. Lastly, the surgeon puts sutures on the incision area.     Breast augmentation is done under general anesthesia. It means that patients will be asleep during the entire surgery procedure. Then, the patient can be moved to a recovery room and become gradually awake and conscious. The surgery lasts for about 2 hours. After the surgery, one must visit the clinic for a follow-up check-up and treatment for about 10~14 days every other day.     Major swelling subsides within two weeks. However, full recovery takes 2~3 weeks, varying on a person’s general body composition and health conditions.     A

Can you drive after the plastic surgery?

Image
  We often get questions from the patients asking if it is allowed to drive after the surgery.     We recommend that one refrain from driving on the surgery day. Therefore, we tell our customers to have someone accompany them. So that would be safer. The reason we do not recommend driving is because of the anesthesia. Even if the patient recovers fast after the anesthesia, he will still be in a semi-conscious condition.     That is why it is advisable to use either public transportation or ask one’s friends or acquaintances to assist you to get home after the surgery.  

Lower eyelid rejuvenation

Image
Some people have unwanted saggy undereye bags under their eyes. For some people, they develop with time when the skin loses its elasticity and tightness, and the skin gets wrinkles. Lower blepharoplasty is a plastic surgery treatment that is performed with the help of the removal of the undereye bags and skin. At first, you need to consult with the doctor and learn whether this operation is suitable for you. A transcutaneous method is a lower blepharoplasty that involves the undereye incision on the lower eyelids under the lower lash lines. The excessive skin and fat are removed and lifted.  If needed, the doctor can reposition the fat tissue to fill up the tear-throughs and hollows under the eyes. As a result, you will get a more youthful and refreshed experience. It is important to note that the operation requires a highly experienced and certified plastic surgeon. Moreover, surgical aftercare is very important to improve the undereye skin texture and quality.   More about Lower blep

What is Laser Liposuction?

Image
  Laser Lipo is a cosmetic procedure that melts away the fat under the skin with the help of a laser. Sometimes these procedures can also be called laser lipolysis.     It is a minimally invasive procedure done under local anesthesia. It means that the doctor numbs the procedure area and makes a small incision.     After he or she melts away the deposits of the fat and with a tiny tube sucks it.     Since laser lipo involves only a tiny incision, it does not require any specific recovery or downtime. However, the doctor still recommends avoiding getting involved in strenuous physical exercises for 2~3 weeks.     Laser lipo is commonly conducted on cheeks and under the chin area. On average, it lasts one hour. But the duration of the procedures depends on the area treated.     The results from laser lipo may last long and go permanently when a proper diet, exercising, and lifestyle are practiced.

No need to fear skin boosters

Image
    These days many people are taking care of their skin with different skincare procedures. To double the effect of those procedures, dermal injections or so-called skin boosters would be a nice addition to them.     However, such skin boosters as Chanel or Rejuran are not painless. Therefore, the majority of people hesitate to try these injections merely because of the fear of the pain. That is a normal thing because beauty requires sacrifice. Considering the downtime and side effects of these skin boosters, we have introduced a new medical device called “PANGSIS.” It has nano- needles, which help make the treatment procedure painless. Also, it does not leave any redness and bruising on the skin.     Moreover, one hardly ever experiences swelling thanks to the nano-needles. Customers previously concerned and worried about the pain of these skin boosters are more than glad to have their procedures done with PANGSIS because they can get their favorite treatments with no pain, redness,

Let’s slim down a square jawline!

Image
     Probably when you look in the mirror, you may notice the square shape of your jawline. It can be due to prominent muscles or muscle asymmetry. Undoubtedly, you may have wanted to have a more slender, v-shaped feminine look, but haven’t figured out the best solution. Perhaps you are not ready for plastic surgery treatment. Therefore, we have good news for you. There is an affordable alternative solution that can change the shape of your jaw in just 10-20 minutes.         The best solution for the square jawline is Botox injection. How does it work? The injection is administered to the muscles on the sides of your face along the jawline. The muscles relax and get smaller in size, the facial contour gets more oval and you can see the results almost immediately after the treatment.     The duration of the effect depends on the product. In general, the effect lasts for 4-6 months. After the effect of the Botox decreases, the jaw muscles may return to their original position. However, i

The double-eyelid fold became thin after the surgery.

Image
  Most patients ask if it is okay when the double eyelid fold becomes thin after the surgery. They wonder if there is a need for revision surgery. Why does the fold get thinner?     Double eyelid fold may get thin when the eyelids lose elasticity. Such symptoms naturally occur as time passes by. Moreover, if one rubs the eye too frequently, this may lead to the thinning of the eyelids.   If the eyelid lines become thin because of the eyelid sagging, the doctor can correct that with revision surgery.     In this case, the surgery leaves the previous eyelid fold as it but removes the sagging eyelid. As a result, thin eyelid folds become more definite. Before undergoing the revision surgery, it is highly important to understand the cause of thin eyelids.     Therefore, it is safer and more advisable to go ahead with the revision surgery only after being explained about the causes through the discussion with a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Having a mesmerizing smile with dimples looks attractive.  If you have always longed about getting naturally-looking dimples, you can get a dimple creation procedure.
