Liposuction Aftercare: Promote Healing and Lasting Results

Despite concerted efforts to improve their diet and stay active, many men and women still struggle with stubborn pockets of fat around the midsection, arms, and legs. Fortunately, liposuction can be a helpful and effective way of removing fat deposits and contouring the body. During your consultation, your plastic surgeon will review the procedure with you, including how to prepare for and recover after your surgery. Following your surgeon’s aftercare tips can help to promote a full and safe healing and to ensure lasting results.

• Wear a Compression Garment: If your surgeon recommends it, be sure to wear a compression garment after your procedure. When worn, these garments promote safe draining at the incision site in order to reduce post-operative swelling and other causes of potential discomfort.
• Receive Lymphatic Drainage Massage: When performed within 14 days after surgery, a lymphatic draining massage can help to reduce swelling and increase circulation, both important factors in promoting a speedy and safe recovery. Another massage is recommended approximately 21 days following liposuction and again at 30 days.
• Get Active, Stay Active: Staying physically active can not only help you to look and feel your best, but it also plays an important role in prolonging your surgical results. Without maintaining a healthy lifestyle, fat can return and reverse the appearance of your results. Once your surgeon grants you the clearance to begin exercising, start slowly and work your way up to more rigorous activities.
• Follow Your Surgeon’s Instructions: Depending on your unique needs and situation, your surgeon may provide you with a list of specific recommendations to help you achieve optimal results from your procedure. If you have any questions about liposuction aftercare, be sure to ask your surgeon during your follow-up appointments.

The Non-Surgical Face Lift: How the Contour ThreadLift Works

As the skin ages, it can lose its elasticity and start to sag, resulting in a tired and aged appearance. To reverse this process and restore youthful vitality to the face, Dr. Scott Yarish of Town & Country Plastic Surgery offers a variety of safe and effective procedures. One of these advanced facelift options, known as Contour ThreadLift, has the ability to provide immediate results in less than one hour. Read on to learn more about how this non-surgical technique works.

How Does Contour ThreadLift Work?

Contour ThreadLift utilizes a patented suture anchoring technology called Contour Threads™ to lift and fix the skin in a more youthful-looking position. Contour Threads™ are made of polypropylene, a completely safe material that has been used as suture material for decades. To position the skin, these threads are fitted with specialized barbs that self-attach to the tissue below the skin, or subdermal tissue. Once affixed, the threads are suspended to provide immediate, lifted results.

What Are Its Benefits?

Unlike other facelift procedures, the Contour ThreadLift provides a minimally-invasive alternative to rejuvenating facial skin. This approach results in less scarring and allows for reduced recovery time. In fact, patients are able to return home shortly after their procedure, as no general anesthesia is required. Patients are able to return to their daily activities sooner and with more immediately visible results than with traditional facelift surgeries.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Contour ThreadLift?

Ideal candidates for this facelift procedure are between the ages of 30 and 60 years old and are looking to improve the appearance of sagging cheeks, nasolabial folds, or other facial tissues.

Cosmetic Rejuvenations for Changing Skin: Resources for Further Reading

While aging and life changes can cause inevitable changes to the skin, you don’t have to live with fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin. With the help of breakthrough technologies and a qualified plastic surgeon, patients can turn back the time on age, pregnancy, and hormones. Learn more about the cosmetic tools available to treat changing skin, and schedule a consultation with your doctor or medical spa today.

• As the skin ages, it begins to slow the production of  pigments, collagen, and oils, which in turn cause the thinning, sagging, and drying of skin. For more information about how aging impacts the health and appearance of your skin, refer to this medical guide on how skin changes over time.
• While you may notice visible changes to your skin over time, the full story of your skin’s health often lies just beneath the surface. With the VISIA Complexion Analysis System, your plastic surgeon can create a clear and thorough portrait of your skin from the inside out, helping him or her to create a treatment plan customized to your skin’s unique needs.
• When topical treatments or injections are not enough, talk to your plastic surgeon about the surgical procedures that can restore a more youthful appearance. For patients with deep wrinkles and facial folds, your doctor may recommend a facelift or brow lift. Learn more about facelift surgery, its benefits and how it is performed with this guide from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
