Answered on 23rd May '24

In Liposuction doctors only remove fat and in abdominoplasty its removing of extra hanging loose skin. Liposuction involves making small incisions in the targeted area, inserting a thin tube called a cannula, and suctioning out the fat cells.

Taping nose 6 months after rhinoplasty, is it required?

Female | 32

Taping the nose six months after rhinoplasty is not typically necessary, as the majority of the swelling and healing process should have already taken place by that point. However, it's important to consult with your surgeon for specific guidance based on your individual circumstances.

In the early stages of rhinoplasty recovery, taping may be used to help support and shape the nose. It is often applied immediately after surgery and worn for a specific period of time as directed by the surgeon. However, after six months, the nose should have largely settled into its final shape.

If you have concerns about the appearance or shape of your nose at the six-month mark, it's best to reach out to your surgeon for a follow-up consultation. They will be able to assess your progress, evaluate any residual swelling, and provide guidance on whether any further interventions, including taping, are necessary.

It's important to follow your surgeon's recommendations closely, as they will have a comprehensive understanding of your unique case and can provide the most appropriate advice for your specific situation.

Hello, my nose is a little bit damaged from one side. I want to undergo Nose surgery, please guide me on the treatment procedure and its cost.

Since there is a lack of picture of your nose, therefore determining the kind of damage that took place, is difficult.

So assuming that you have a minor fracture which didn't make your nose crooked or misshaped, then you may not require professional medical treatment. Your doctor however, may recommend simple self-care measures, such as using ice on the area and taking over-the-counter pain medications.
If there are displacements of and breaks in bones & cartilages, then the doctor may be able to realign your nose manually, or you may require a surgery.
if this has gone untreated for more than 2 weeks, or if your damage is way too severe, then reconstructive surgery may be needed.
And only your doctor, through some trials, will be able to decide which treatment fits you the best - Cosmetic Surgery doctors in Mumbai.

How to get rid of fibrosis after lipo?

Female | 51

The treatment after liposuction of fibrosis is a blend procedure. Massaging the affected areas regularly will break down scar tissue and enhance skin elasticity. In some instances, specialized treatments like lymphatic drainage massage or radiofrequency therapy can also be suggested to treat fibrosis. With proper hydration, balanced diet and regular exercise a healthy lifestyle can sustain the overall healing process. There must be strict adherence to the post-operative care instructions given by your surgeon and make sure that you attend all follow up visits for a thorough evaluation of how well you are recovering. If concerns continue, seek advice from your surgeon regarding the management of fibrosis subsequent to liposuction.

I'm 18 and just had a septoplasty surgery two days ago and I'm struggling to manage the pain but I also have some questions about the splints placed inside my nose

Female | 18

It is common to have pain following septoplasty. The splints inside your nose are meant to support the healing process. Due to them, you might feel discomfort, pressure, or blocked-up sensation but do not try touching or removing them all the same. Follow the doctor’s advice for managing the pain and keeping the nose clean. In case of any concerns, do not hesitate to contact your healthcare provider immediately.

I think i am suffering from man boobs gyno but not sure that it's chest fat or gyno but can't go for surgery and can't visit person tell me exercise to reduce and the food diet should not increase more and tell me when will it be normal as it's not permanent i searched and even ready to share images

Male | 17

If you think you have gynecomastia (man boobs), but can't go for surgery or visit a doctor, focus on chest exercises like push-ups and bench presses. Avoid high-fat foods and sugary drinks; eat lean proteins, vegetables, and whole grains. Gynecomastia might improve with exercise and a good diet, but it's best to consult an endocrinologist for proper diagnosis and advice.

The discomfort might come from your previous Gynecomastia surgery. One side of the chest could have pain because of inflammation or collection of fluids. It would be best if you saw a doctor about this who can advise on what treatment may be needed and any further tests that need doing.
