When can i drink alcohol after rhinoplasty?

Male | 34

After the rhinoplasty, you need to refrain from alcohol for at least two weeks. Sometimes surgeons can suggest an even longer period of abstinence. Alcohol, vasodilator–increases swelling and prolongs the healing process by intensifying bruising of inflammation. It also makes the blood thinner, increasing chances of bleeding and complications after surgery. On top of that, alcohol interacts poorly with any medications being prescribed to you during recovery like painkillers or antibiotics. Follow your surgeon’s particular advice and contact them directly for personalized information about alcohol intake after rhinoplasty.

I have facial hair growth over both chin and upper lip. Its because of hormonal imbalance my DHEA level is 180. So may i know if laser hair removal will help get rid of this facial hair growth.

Female | 29

Laser hair removal can be an effective way to remove unwanted facial hair. But it is important to discuss any hormonal imbalances with your doctor before beginning a treatment plan. Laser hair removal may not be the best option for you if your DHEA level is high as this could lead to an increased risk of side effects. Your doctor may suggest other options such as oral medications, topical creams, or electrolysis.

I want to decrease penis size pls I m Very depressed

Male | 16

1. Non-Surgical Methods • Temporary Enhancements: Vacuum devices and fillers can provide temporary size enhancement. • Exercise & Supplements: While some exercises (like jelqing) claim to work, there is little scientific evidence supporting permanent growth. Supplements may improve blood flow but do not change size. 2. Surgical Options For those looking for lasting results, medical procedures like ligament release surgery or fat grafting can help increase length or girth. However, these require expert consultation to ensure safety and realistic expectations. At Kalp Aesthetics, we focus on evidence-based solutions tailored to individual goals. If you’re considering a professional approach to enhancement, schedule a confidential consultation with us to explore safe and effective options.
