Lipofilling


Lipofilling otherwise known as fat transfer, can either be done on its own or in combination with other surgical procedures such as face and neck lift. Done on its own it is possible to perform the procedure under local anesthetic as a day case, but is usually performed under general anesthetic.
Small incisions, less than 1 cm, are made in either the abdomen or inner thigh from where the fat will be harvested. This is done using a low pressure liposuction technique. Small dressings are placed on these wounds and occasionally an absorbable suture is used to close them. The fat that has been harvested from this area is re-injected into the required areas of the face again using tiny 3 – 4 mm. stab incisions which are covered with a Steri-strip sticking plaster.

Duration of the operation:
The operation for lipofilling alone usually takes between 45 minutes and 1 hour.

Post operative care:
You will expect swelling and bruises. These are all normal and should be taken cared of. You will be instructed to take all of your medications on time, keep your treatment are immobile and allow proper healing. This includes no high impact exercise or activities for approximately 2-3 weeks, depending upon the extent of the surgery.

Recovery period:
The area is usually swollen after the treatment and sometimes bruised, a cold pack, i.e. a bag filled with ice can be soothing. The swelling and bluish  colour gradually clears up a few days after the treatment. With a reasonable skin concealing cream product, you can disguise any skin discoloration, allowing you to resume your social life more quickly

Possible risk and complications:
The risks for fat grafting are asymmetry, infection, fatty cysts, hematoma, fat embolism, seroma, permanent discoloration from the bruises and others.

Anesthesia used:
Lipostructure takes place under local anaesthesia. Both the donor and recipient zones are treated with an anaesthetic (liquid form) that also prevents bleeding

Hospital admission:
This procedure may be performed in the cosmetic surgeon’s office-based facility, an outpatient surgery center, or at a hospital. This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis

Preparation before Surgery
The aims and expectations of surgery will have been discussed at consultation. Smokers have a high risk of developing complications, in particular wound healing and re-absorption and it is therefore advised that patients should refrain from smoking at least six weeks prior, and between two to four weeks following surgery.
Aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs should be avoided for at least the week before surgery and a week after surgery to help reduce the amount of bleeding and bruising.

  • Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
  • Blood and urine samples will be collected for routine preoperative laboratory tests. 
  • Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
  • You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
  • Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Cosmetic Surgery Beauty Bangkok Thailand: Male Breast Reduction

Male Breast Reduction

Male breast reduction also known as gynecomastia, breast reduction for men is the surgical correction of over-developed or enlarged breasts in men.
During an excision procedure, the incision is made either on the edge of the nipple (areola) or in the underarm area. The surgeon cuts away the excess glandular tissue, fat and skin from around the pigmented area surrounding the areola and from the sides and bottom of the breast by working through the incision. Major reductions that involve the removal of a significant amount of tissue and skin may require larger incisions and more visible scars.
If liposuction is also used to remove excess fat, a slim, hollow tube (cannula), is inserted directly through the existing incisions. The cannula is attached to a vacuum pump to suction out the fat.
Duration of the operation:                                 
 The procedure takes about 1-2 hours

Post operative care:
To help reduce swelling, you'll probably need to wear an elastic pressure garment continuously for a week or two, and for a few weeks longer at night. Although the worst of the swelling will subside in the first few weeks, it may be three months or more before the final results of your surgery are apparent.You'll be encouraged to begin walking around on the day of surgery, and to return to work when you feel well enough, which could be in a couple of days. Stitches are removed one to two weeks after the procedure.Your surgeon may advise you to avoid sexual activity for a week or two and heavy exercise for about three weeks. You will be told to stay away from any sport or job that risks a blow to the chest area for at least four weeks. Your activities should be back to normal after about a month.
Recovery period:
Back to work: 5-7 days
more strenuous activity: 2-3 weeks
Full recovery from bruising: 3-6 months


Possible risk and complications:
Infection, fluid accumulations, injury to the skin, rippling or bagginess of skin, and asymmetry. Pigment changes (possibly permanent if exposed to the sun). Excessive scarring if tissue was cut away, and need for a following procedure to remove addition tissue.

Anesthesia use:
Local with sedation or general

Cosmetic Surgery Beauty Bangkok Thailand: Mastectomy

Mastectomy


Mastectomy is surgery to remove all breast tissue from a breast as a way to treat or prevent breast cancer. An incision is made into the breast. The breast tissue is removed from the overlying skin and the underlying muscle. When an axillary dissection is done, it is typically via the same incision.

Duration of the operation:
1-3 hours duration

Post operative care:
One or two small plastic drains are usually left in place to prevent fluid from collecting in the space where the breast tissue used to be.Your surgeon will decide when these drains are removed, typically when the amount of fluid draining decreases to an acceptable volume. This may take a few days to a week or more.
Recovery period:
The patient is taken to a recovery room to be monitored after the surgery. After the blood pressure, pulse and breathing become stable, the patient is shifted outside the recovery room. Pain medication may be given to reduce severe pain. The patient needs to stay in the hospital for some days depending on the method of mastectomy and reconstruction. The result after the mastectomy is given in about one week.

Possible risk and complications:
Mastectomy is very safe surgery, and most patients recover well with no complications. As with any surgery, however, there are risks. Possible complications are listed here, but keep in mind that unless stated otherwise, they usually do not happen.
The risks of any surgery are bleeding, infection, and injury to nearby tissues. Some post-operative pain and soreness is expected, but can be effectively treated with pain medication. There will also be a scar on the chest wall. Scarring occurs with all surgery, and is unavoidable.
Anesthesia use:
General anesthesia

Hospital admission:
This procedure may be performed in the cosmetic surgeon’s office-based facility, an outpatient surgery center, or at a hospital. This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis.

Preparation before Surgery
Inform your surgeon of any allergies, all medical conditions, and any medication that you are taking (both prescription and non-prescription).
Avoid aspirin and blood thinning medication such as brufen for two weeks prior to surgery to eliminate the chance of post op. bleeding. You should not smoke for 2 weeks prior to surgery as this may affect your reaction to the anesthetic and prolong the healing process
  • Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
  • Blood and urine samples will be collected for routine preoperative laboratory tests. 
  • Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
