  • How do you wash your face after rhinoplasty surgery?

    While the cast is on, you must keep it dry. You can gently wash around your eyes and mouth with a moist cloth if you wish.

  • Does fat come back after lipo?

    We have a fixed number of fat cells in our body since we are children. The fat cells which Are removed during liposuction are gone permanently.

  • Is facial liposuction permanent?

  • How long is the recovery for a rhinoplasty?

    After a rhinoplasty, there is a cast which generally stays for one week. The lower eyelids may get black and blue and swollen, and this may take one to two weeks to resolve depending on age. Patients are generally cautioned to avoid heavy lifting and contact sports for a period of 3 to 4 weeks. Generally, by four weeks, patients can do most anything, but should wear sunscreen on the nose if they are going to have intense exposure. Most changes to the nose particular removal of the dorsal hump are obvious very early and usually can be seen within the first couple of weeks. A small amount of residual swelling in the tip can take anywhere from 1 to 2 years to fully resolve depending on the thickness of the skin. The nose will still look better than it did before surgery but may not look its final best until six months to one year post-op and longer in thick skin tips. READ MORE

  • How long will I be under during my nose job?

    This depends entirely on the surgeon, his experience, and the amount of surgery you are having. A straightforward simple rhinoplasty in experienced hands takes approximately one hour. A more difficult rhinoplasty with septal work on a crooked nose in a patient with breathing difficulty can take two or more hours in experienced hands and even four or more hours in relatively inexperienced hands.

  • How long does a blepharoplasty last?

    Many things that a blepharoplasty accomplishes last indefinitely. The fat which is removed does not grow back. The excess skin which is removed does not grow back. Therefore a person will always look better for having had a blepharoplasty despite the aging process. However while the skin and fat which was removed does not grow back the brows descend with age which creates the appearance that some of the upper lid skin is recurring. Similarly the skin of the lower eyelids ages loses elastic fibers and collagen and wrinkles with time. Therefore as one ages The eyelids will also appear older. This however is not the surgery wearing off but the process of aging going on. READ MORE

  • Will an otoplasty affect my ability to hear?

    No, not at all. The external ear is not involved in the hearing process. This takes place in the ear canal and in the brain. READ MORE

  • If my nose surgery goes wrong, can It be corrected?

    Revision surgery after primary rhinoplasty is unfortunately quite common. Many things can be changed after a rhinoplasty if a patient is unhappy with the result. However it is always easier to take away than to add back. Also because of scar tissue revision surgery can take longer and be somewhat less predictable. Some things cannot be made to order. A person with a very bulbous tip and extremely thick skin has a more limited result than someone with average to thinner skin of the tip area. Extremely crooked noses cannot always be made perfectly straight and though much better than before may require minor secondary procedures to fill in A small concavity. The first shot is usually always the best shot at getting the desired result. But revisions if necessary can be done. READ MORE
