Is Scar Gel Necessary After Lower Blepharoplasty?

-


Lower blepharoplasty, or lower eyelid surgery, involves creating an incision beneath the eyelashes to address sagging skin and fat below the eyes. 


Given the incisions involved, a scar ointment or gel will be prescribed. But when should you start using it, and for how long?



Ideally, begin applying Contractubex scar gel 2-3 weeks after stitch removal. Applying it sooner may cause a tingling sensation at the surgical site. 


The recommended duration for applying scar ointment is 3 to 6 months, with scars typically fading after 6 months. 



Additionally, Steri strips should be applied to the incision ends for 3 weeks post-surgery. Continuing their use for at least 3 months, including during sleep, is advisable.

  V-ro Advance is the most popular lifting procedure at She’s Clinic. It uses ultrasound and radiofrequency therapy to naturally lift sagging skin. V-ro Advance effectively lifts the cheeks and chin line, as well as tightening the skin in areas with thin skin, such as around the eyes and forehead. The effect can be seen immediately after the procedure, and over time, the results improve. It is recommended to undergo the procedure regularly, with an interval of 3 months. V-ro Advance causes minimal discomfort, making the procedure comfortable. After the procedure, you can immediately wash your face and apply makeup, which does not interfere with daily activities. This is an ideal option for those who do not want to worry about the recovery period after the procedure. #shesplasticsurgery   #Busanplasticsurgery   #nampodongplasticsurgery

Can alar base reduction and nose filler injections be done at the same time?

-

  Yes, alar base reduction surgery and nose filler injections can be performed simultaneously. The surgery involves making an incision on the side of the nostril, removing part of the tissue, and stitching it back together to reduce the width of the nostrils. This procedure is suitable for people with wide or large nostrils, and it is important that it is done considering the harmony with the rest of the facial features. Nose filler is an injection procedure that helps to lift the nose easily. The effect appears immediately after the procedure, and no recovery time is needed. Our clinic uses only tested fillers, and depending on the type of filler, the duration of the effect and the cost may vary. Combining nose narrowing surgery with nose filler injections can create a more natural and balanced nose shape. It is recommended to consult with a doctor at She's clinic for a detailed consultation. #shesplasticsurgery   #Busanplasticsurgery   #nampodongplasticsurgery
