What is the best sunscreen to protect my facelift scars from sun exposure?
The Biocorneum Scar Treatment solution will act as sunscreen and scar treatment
Jun 28, 2022
For the first six months after surgery, we advise patients to limit their exposure to the sun. In addition to wearing your hat while you're on vacation, you should opt for a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least 30 that offers UVA and UVB protection in order to prevent your scar from darkening. The Biocorneum Scar Treatment solution contains SPF 30, which shields your skin from UV rays. Additionally, it can soften already-existing elevated hypertrophic scars, flattening them, and reducing...
I smoke two cigarette 4 days before rhinoplasty, can I still do the surgery? I know it can delay healin
Smoking is not recommended
Jun 28, 2022
The majority of medical professionals advise quitting smoking at least 4 weeks before and after a rhinoplasty procedure. Since a healthy blood flow is necessary for rhinoplasty surgery, smoking can have several undesirable side effects that could jeopardize your recovery. This can affect both healing of the skin and cartilages. We worry about the blood flow to the skin in patients that have been smoking. Make sure you disclose that you have been smoking to your physician, who will then...
Is it safe to have undergo the aesthetic component of a rhinoplasty assuming there is a sinus infection
Varies case by case
Jun 28, 2022
When sinus surgery is done with rhinoplasty, the risk of infections could rise. For this reason, in particular sinusitis conditions, rhinoplasty and sinus surgery shouldn't be combined. However, in cases of non-purulent sinusitis, a septorhinoplasty can be done simultaneously with sinus surgery while using antibiotic prophylaxis. This is particularly the case when a septorhinoplasty is required to get enough access to the sinus system. It would be best to consult your plastic surgeon of...
Rhinoseptoplasty and filler. Will the filler be an issue if I go under the knife?
Filler would definitely need to be dissolved!
Jun 28, 2022
The actual anatomy of your nose can be seen once the injectable filler has worn off, making rhinoplasty surgery more precise. In most parts, hyaluronic acid fillers stay for several months, but frequently longer in the nose. Asking the doctor who performed the filler about the dissolving time would be best. In general, having had filler in your nose at any point makes healing more unpredictable.
If I’ve had rhinoplasty, would my nose get bigger during pregnancy?
Your rhino result is designed to last during and after pregnancy!
Jun 28, 2022
The body produces extra blood and fluids during pregnancy, which can result in swelling, even in unexpected locations like the nasal passages, and even thickening of the nasal walls. In certain women, the nasal passages and sinus cavities become more congested and produce more mucus. The good news is that the results of your rhinoplasty are designed to last both during and after pregnancy. Although the interior of the nose may start to expand and the appearance of the nose may be puffy or...
