Facelift - facelift

To the price list Rhinoplasty is a popular plastic surgery among people of different ages to correct the external shape of the nose.

Often, it is the irregular shape or disproportionate size of the nose that becomes the cause of many complexes and dissatisfaction with one’s own appearance. The level of development of modern medicine and the extensive experience of plastic surgeons working in our Clinic make it possible to safely and in the shortest possible time correct such aesthetic deficiencies.

From a medical point of view, rhinoplasty is the most complex area of ​​plastic surgery, which requires an integrated approach to addressing issues of facial aesthetics and functionality. When changing the shape and size of the nose, it is necessary not only to improve the proportions of the face, but also to maintain and, if necessary, improve the functions of nasal breathing. Therefore, septoplasty is often performed together with rhinoplasty - correction of the nasal septum to restore nasal breathing.

Plastic surgeries for nose correction using modern anesthetic drugs are safe, atraumatic interventions that in most cases have no complications.

Indications for rhinoplasty:

• Excessive nose length
• Excessively large nostrils
• Crook in the nose,
• Thickened or too pointed tip of the nose,
• Saddle-shaped nose
• Deformation of the nose as a result of trauma,
• Congenital defects of the nose structure,
• Impaired nasal breathing caused by a deviated nasal septum or other reasons.

Circular facelift

Ridectomy is a classic surgical method of radical lifting. The operation is performed under general anesthesia and lasts 2–3 hours. The surgeon makes an incision in the temple area and leads it along the auricle. If correction of a double chin is intended, an additional incision is made under the lower jaw. The skin is separated; if necessary, the doctor removes excess tissue and subcutaneous fat. After this, the skin is tightened and the surgeon stitches.

A circular facelift is a rather traumatic operation that requires rehabilitation. During the first week, noticeable swelling, redness, pain, numbness, or tingling may occur. The sutures are removed after a week, but for some time you will have to wear an elastic bandage, which helps the swelling to resolve quickly. The final result can be assessed in about 2 months, although the timing of complete healing depends on the characteristics of the body. The effect of the operation lasts 7–10 years.

Preparing for surgery

Rhinoplasty is a full-fledged surgical operation, which is performed under general anesthesia, so approximately two weeks before the operation you need to undergo a medical examination: pass the necessary tests and examination by specialists

Anesthesia for rhinoplasty

For rhinoplasty, depending on the scope of the operation, 2 main types of anesthesia are used:

• General anesthesia
• Local anesthesia

Duration of rhinoplasty surgery

The duration of rhinoplasty depends on the planned volume of the operation and can range from 1 to 3 hours, or more hours for complex reconstructive interventions.

SMAS-plasty (space lifting)

This is a more modern technique that allows not only to eliminate wrinkles and sagging, but also to correct the oval and contour of the face. The essence of the operation is to tighten the skin, which is combined with the movement of muscle tissue. If a regular circular lift affects only the skin, then SMAS-plasty captures deeper structures, so the effect lasts much longer. In addition, after SMAS plastic surgery, the face looks natural, there is no effect of skin tension, changes in the line of the mouth and the shape of the eyes.

The technology of the operation is similar to a circular lift, but after the incision is made, the surgeon first shifts the subcutaneous fibromuscular layer, forming a tightened oval of the face, and removes excess fat. Only after the muscle tissue is fixed does the doctor apply sutures without stretching the skin.

The stitches are removed after 10–12 days. The result can be assessed after 1.5–2 months, and it lasts for at least 12–15 years.

Operations on the nose and septum

Note: services marked * (asterisk) may be subject to an increase in the cost of the service by factors of 1.5; 2.0; depending on the complexity of the procedures and operations performed. The increasing coefficient is set by the doctor individually.

Endoscopic facelift

Perhaps this method can be called the least traumatic. During an endoscopic facelift, the doctor makes small incisions along the hairline through which absorbable plates are inserted, through which the soft tissue is moved to the desired location and fixed. There are different types of structures for lifting different areas - forehead, eyebrows, cheekbones, etc. The long-term effect is explained by the fact that during the operation not only the skin, but also the muscles are tightened.

After the operation, drainage tubes are inserted into the holes, and a compression bandage is applied to the face, which will have to be worn for at least 2 weeks. As after any surgical lifting, swelling is observed after endoscopic surgery, but it will last a long time - up to 6-7 weeks. Sometimes slight swelling is noticeable even 2–3 months after surgery. Full recovery takes 3–3.5 months. Of course, this takes a long time, but the effect is long lasting - up to 15 years.

Important! An endoscopic facelift is often performed to lift the upper half of the face.

Endoscopic rejuvenation

A relatively new, but already proven method. A facelift is performed using an endoscope. A camera is connected to the device, through which the surgeon monitors the progress of the operation. The image is displayed on the monitor.

Endoscopic facelift is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which very small incisions are made. This allows you to minimize trauma, avoid significant blood loss, and shorten the recovery period.

Incisions are made in places that are not visible to prying eyes: the scalp, the mucous membrane of the eyelids, etc. Thanks to this, even minimal scars after surgery remain hidden from others. The result of the procedure - visual rejuvenation by 8-10 years - lasts up to 10 years.

Rehabilitation after a facelift

To speed up the rehabilitation process after facial plastic surgery, you need to follow a few simple rules that are mandatory for almost any plastic surgery.

• Avoid heavy lifting, exercise, or other activities that raise your blood pressure for one to two months. For the same reason, it is worth giving up sexual activity for a while.
• You should not take aspirin either before surgery or for two weeks after. Aspirin thins the blood, the clotting process slows down, as a result bleeding may begin, and the healing process will take much longer.
• You should forget about alcoholic drinks.
• You should absolutely not sunbathe or visit a solarium for two to three months.
• For a month we forget about a hot bath or sauna.
• For some time, cosmetic masks and peeling will replace ointments that promote the rapid resorption of bruises and swelling, and beauty salons will give way to a physiotherapy room.

Types of rhinoplasty

Open . It is carried out through an incision in the skin of the bridge between the nostrils. The main advantage of this method is the ability to visually monitor the progress of the operation.

Closed . It is carried out using incisions, as well as through the nasal mucosa. Allows you to avoid the appearance of visible post-operative scars.

Rhinoplasty is a piece of jewelry and an experienced specialist masters and uses both methods according to indications. The type of rhinoplasty is always chosen by the plastic surgeon; he is the one who plans the operation and knows what tasks on the tissues he will have to solve.

Septoplasty is a type of rhinoplasty that corrects the nasal septum. A deviated nasal septum may be the result of a birth injury, an inflammatory disease, or a nasal fracture (if the bones and cartilage have not fused together correctly). Septoplasty can be combined with plastic surgery of the external nose (rhinoseptoplasty).

Postoperative period:

• The first 1–2 days after surgery are under the supervision of doctors in the hospital.
• During the first days, antibacterial and painkillers are prescribed.
• Immediately after surgery, a fixation splint is applied to the nose. It will be possible to remove it only after 7–10 days.
• For three days (not always), tampons remain in the nose.
• Swelling and hematomas can persist for up to two weeks.

For two months you should not: sleep on your stomach or side, smoke, wear glasses, play sports, wear clothes with a narrow neck, sunbathe, visit baths and saunas, swim in open water (including a swimming pool), consume too hot or cold dishes.

At first, you need to visit a doctor for an examination and follow all his instructions. It will be possible to return to a more normal lifestyle (including sports) in just six months.

You will be able to see the approximate result of rhinoplasty in a few months, but you will be able to evaluate the final effect of the operation only after 1 - 1.5 years - by this time the soft tissues and the osteochondral complex will have completely healed.

The results of rhinoplasty are stable and long lasting.
