Rhinoplasty
As a rule, called “nose reshaping” by the patients, rhinoplasty is a highly effective surgical way of correcting nose shape and proportions as well as structural defects which in turn leads to impaired breathing. Thus, rhinoplasty is not just a tool to enhance facial harmony, but also very helpful concerning breathing problems. Basically, by correcting deviated septum breathing difficulties can be removed. Generally, the arc goal of rhinoplasty is to create facial balance and correct face proportion. Applying medical rhinoplasty, the following facial changes are reached.
- The size of a nose can be changed with respect to the facial balance.
- The width of a nose at the bridge or in the size as well as the position of nostrils can be corrected.
- Removal of nasal asymmetry.
- Large, wide, or upturned nostrils can be corrected.
- Correction of nose profile with visible humps or depressions on the bridge.
- Correction of nasal tip that is enlarged or bulbous, hooked, upturned, or bent.
It is also should be pointed out, that after the facelift surgery, the fundamental appearance does not change and the natural aging process is not stopped.
Facelift
In the overwhelming majority of cases, the youthful contours of the face are lost, due to the diversity of factors, such as thinning of the skin, loss of facial fat, sun damage, smoking as well as heredity and stress. As far as facelift surgery or rhytidectomy is concerned, it is a surgical procedure that ameliorates the visible signs of aging within the areas of the face and neck. Basically, the process of rejuvenation is undergone through the surgical intervention. As a result of the surgery, the following face and neck aesthetical corrections can be made.
- Sagging, which is reached due to the relaxation of the skin of the face.
- Deepening of the fold lines between the nose and corner of the mouth.
- Correction of fallen or disappeared fat.
- Removal of jowls, developed in the cheeks and jaw.
- Double chin caused by the loosed skin or excess fat can be removed.
It is also should be pointed out, after the facelift surgery, the fundamental appearance does not change and natural aging process is not stopped.
Facial Fat Grafting
During this surgery the fat from another part of body is transplanted to the face, thus the process can also be call as Fat Transfer, Lipoinjection, Autologous Fat Grafting/Transfer, or Fat Injection. Basically, the cleaned and undamaged fat is injected to the targeted area with a needle. As a result of surgery, scars related issues can be removed and more youthful appearance can be acquired. Most commonly this surgery is applied to the lips, the folds that go from the corners of the mouth to the nose, the under-eye areas, and the cheeks. It is also has to be pointed out that facial fat grafting can be performed simultaneously along with the facelift and eyelift surgeries. Generally, it takes about 2-3 hours to recover. Post operation bruising and swelling will go away in couple of days and 3-4 weeks respectively.
Chin-Jaw Shaping
Chin-jaw or jawline surgery is performed to reshape the jaw and chin. As far as jawline surgery is concerned, applying this surgery is aimed to either magnify and define jaw or reduce the size of the bone in order to make chin to look more slimmer and more proportional with overall face. If the lower face has wide or square shape it would be reasonable to apply jawline surgery to achieve a long-term solution. To get a more feminine jaw shape and a more egg-shaped face, the angle of the jaw bone is reduced and jaw muscles are modified. It is also rational to apply this surgery in cases of narrow lower face and not enough defined jaw. To get rid of this problem it is offered to use facial implants for jawline augmentation. It is not necessarily required to cut the bone, since the implants are initially designed to be added on the top of the bone beneath the jaw muscles. Swelling and bruising are expected gone in the first couple weeks.
