Who Needs/Candidates
If you are planning on undergoing a Cosmetic surgery in Rawalpindi/Islamabad, it’s important to know about its suitability for your needs. The usual candidates for cosmetic surgery are those unhappy with an isolated problem that isn’t easily improved with medication or topical creams. In most cases, their problem is associated with the skeletal structure, such as a nose hump, or related to stubborn fat and muscles, such as large inner thighs. There are many patients who use cosmetic surgery to improve a bodily or facial feature tied to their genes, such as a dull body shape or unpronounced jawline.
Aging and other lifestyle factors can also negatively impact the skin and shape of your body. Problems such as folding skin, dropping eyebrows, deep wrinkles, and sunken cheeks can also push some people to opt for cosmetic surgery.
Treatment Goals
Cosmetic Surgeries help where other less intensive treatments don’t work. Laser treatments, Dermal fillers, and topical creams have their limitations. Some problems are more deeply rooted and stubborn to solve— male pattern baldness, excessive bone structure, thinning muscles, etc. The primary goal of cosmetic surgeries is to fill in this gap and provide a quick and more in-depth solution to such problems.
Popular Cosmetic Surgeries
The options in cosmetic surgeries are wide and tackle a range of different skin, facial, and bodily concerns. Some of the most popular cosmetic surgeries are described below.
Techniques Available
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular Cosmetic surgeries in Rawalpindi/Islamabad. The surgery fixes an oversized, protruding, bumpy, or otherwise unappealing nose. It involves a careful assessment of the overall facial geometry and creating a more sculpted nose profile that complements the overall face of
the patient. It is major surgery and involves removing isolated problem areas that are usually due to the underlying skeletal structure.
Hair transplant
Hair transplant is the most effective treatment for pattern balding, alopecia areata, and severe cases of hair thinning. The procedure plucks out existing healthy hair follicles which are then re-planted into the thinning or balding areas of the scalp. It helps the scalp foster new hair growth within three to six months. The results are usually permanent and don’t require follow-up sessions unless an active hair condition is involved.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck reshapes the weakened and loose skin and connective tissues on the abdomen and the abdominal walls. It is the gold standard for fixing saggy and folding skin, which can appear due to multiple factors such as sudden weight loss, pregnancy, or a C-section. The treatment accompanies the added benefit of tightening skin, lifting up the abdomen, making it more sculpted, and smoothening out deep creases and wrinkles.
Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery is popular among the aging population when it comes to restoring a more youthful appearance. As we age, our skin becomes thinner and begins to fold and crease. Eyelid surgery aims to cut off the excess skin and tissues to lift up the facial profile. The procedure can be done for both the upper and the lower eyelids. It is minimally invasive and only makes an unnoticeable horizontal incision along the lines of the excess skin, fat, or muscles.
Liposuction
Liposuction is widely known as the most popular cosmetic procedure due to its ability to address the most common cosmetic concern— excessive weight. The treatment is highly targeted and allows patients to fix an isolated case of excessive fat deposits such as that around the thighs, abdomen, or arms. It stands out due to its ability to eliminate stubborn fat, which is not easily eliminated with diet and exercise. It results in a more contoured, toned-up, and nicely proportionate body weight.
Preparation/Pre-Op Care
All cosmetic surgeries are considered major surgeries and require a lot of pre-care. Because most involve making an incision on the skin, the quality, and health of your skin matter a lot. You must keep your skin
protected from the sun and free of any infections before undergoing surgery. Sunburned skin is harder to deal with and can interfere with the flow of your treatment. Besides these, you will also be required to:
- Avoid alcohol consumption and smoking for a few weeks
- Avoid all blood thinning medications and supplements
- Postpone any irritating treatments such as laser therapy
- Wait until a few weeks have passed after you received botox or similar treatments
Recovery/Post-Op Care
Once you are free from your cosmetic surgery in Rawalpindi/Islamabad, you will be required to:
- Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption for at least two weeks
- Avoid going under direct sunlight and protect the treated skin from UV rays
- Wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent damaging the skin
- Use all the topical creams and medications prescribed by your doctor
- Avoid any blood-thinning medication and NSAIDs
- Keep the incisions and other healing areas clean and dry to prevent infection
