You will be able to make an educated decision about cosmetic surgery after reading this article. You should be aware of these things before scheduling your operation.
Endoscopic brow lifting
It is possible to be curious about the recovery after an endoscopic lift. This procedure offers many advantages. In one to two weeks, you can resume your normal work or activities. Sometimes, the procedure can take weeks or even months. Here's some information about what to expect. In general, the healing process is much shorter after this procedure than with other plastic surgeries.
A patient's brows naturally droop as a result of gravity and exposure to sunlight. As the skin gets older, the skin's support structures become weaker, leading to a sagging appearance. This area is more prone to wrinkles and lines. These problems can be avoided by having a beautiful, healthy eyebrow at rest. A good eyebrow should be slightly higher than its inner counterpart. A good browlift procedure will tighten loosening and correct the underlying muscle layers.
One-stage forehead and hairline reduction/hairline removal
One-stage forehead and hairline reductions can help you look natural. Although not all plastic surgeons offer this procedure, Dr. Aharonov has performed hundreds of them with success. After a video consultation Dr. Aharonov will evaluate your face and make recommendations that are based on your individual anatomy and desired outcomes. You can return to work as soon as possible if you so desire.
The typical recovery time after a one stage forehead reduction/hairline-lowering surgery is a short period of downtime with a light compression dressing. There will likely be some swelling and temporary bruising, but it will be very minimal. Patients may experience some numbness behind their hairline for several weeks. The area behind the hairline will feel numb for seven days.
Surgical incisions
The type of forehead plastic surgery performed will vary in the types of incisions required. A forehead lift, for instance, requires an incision to expose the forehead skin and the muscles beneath it. Afterward, the excess skin is removed and the incision is closed with sutures, clips, or staples. The patient will then be given bandages to keep swelling and infection at bay.
The most common procedure for a forehead lift involves multiple small scalp incisions, each less than an inch long. The surgeon then uses an Endoscope, which is a tiny camera device attached to the television to view the muscles under the skin. After the underlying tissue is removed the eyebrows will be lifted with temporary fixation screw or sutures. These procedures are highly recommended for patients who want to minimize scarring.
Recovery time
After having forehead plastic surgery, a week or so is required for full recovery. For at least two weeks after having forehead plastic surgery, patients are asked not to lift or bend over any heavy objects. They should also avoid hitting their heads on anything. A few days after surgery, patients should not lie on their stomachs. Some people feel some numbness and tingling following surgery. Avoid lifting heavy objects. Smokers should not lift objects, such as heavy suitcases and cars, because it can delay healing, increase the risk of complications, and cause more damage.
Swelling, which is common during recovery, is proportional according to the extent of surgery. The face, cheeks, and eyelids may all experience swelling. This is the body’s natural reaction to surgery. It usually occurs between two and three days following surgery. Once the skin heals, swelling should decrease quickly. Swelling can stop people from smiling and can cause temporary discoloration to the eyes.
