[x_video_embed]The swelling experienced after a tummy tuck procedure will present a little differently for each person, but generally, will appear then resolve in a few stages. A tummy tuck is a relatively invasive and extensive cosmetic surgery and as such, it requires adequate time to recover and see settled results. Tissue induration or firmness can last up to 6 months as inflammation slowly leaves the body.
Immediately post-procedure, abdominal tissues will tend to swell over the first few days- peaking roughly day 3-5. Many patients will describe a sensation of tightness and bloating. Your limbs may retain a little fluid for […]
Cosmetic surgery requires a significant financial investment and it is very reasonable to ask how long you can expect the results from your procedure to last. Abdominoplasty, in particular, is one of the more invasive cosmetic procedures and the emotional, mental, and physical impact can be significant. Naturally, patients want to know, can I count on my great results lasting a lifetime and what kind of maintenance, if any, is required?
Unfortunately, results from a surgical procedure can never be guaranteed 100%. This is because there are many factors at play including the patient’s body, ability to heal well, and the […]
[x_video_embed]Many people underestimate the full extent of a tummy tuck procedure and don’t realize that not only is excess skin removed, the remaining tissue is then stretched and repositioned entirely.

This makes it impossible to say exactly how you will feel after surgery. There are a few concepts that can be discussed, however, that will give you a better idea as to how you may feel after an abdominoplasty procedure.
Just like each recovery is unique, each tummy tuck […]
Blepharoplasty—or eyelid surgery as it’s more commonly known—is a highly effective cosmetic surgery that focuses on enhancing a patient’s eyelids and the area just surrounding the eyes. This kind of procedure isn’t always strictly cosmetic either, as it can have both medical as well as cosmetic applications. Many patients benefit from both corrective goals. Many people experience an excess of skin drooping down from the upper eyelid, which can impact their field of vision—an eyelid surgery can correct this. However, it can also correct cosmetic issues such as bags or puffiness underneath the eyes which lead to a constantly tired […]

There are three words which should guide you in your search for the best plastic surgeon in Toronto: “evidence of excellence.”
To elaborate, the plastic surgeon with whom you choose to work with should be able to demonstrate that he or she is the best possible person for the specific kind of cosmetic surgery that you wish to have. Of course, different plastic surgeons have different specialties, and you are very unlikely to find a “one stop shop” for everything, assuming you’re considering a number of different procedures.
However, in the event that you would like to become the patient of a […]
There are still some people out there who don’t believe in any type of cosmetic surgery and even go so far as to judge those who get it. What they don’t realize is that many of the people who seek nose jobs are not doing so out of vanity.

The potential benefits of Rhinoplasty have a strong emotional component. A well-performed nose job can benefit in a variety of ways relating to both social relations and personal satisfaction.

If you plan on having liposuction performed, you are probably curious as to how long it will take to see results from the procedure. While it would be nice to see immediate results, it is not going to happen and you must be patient while you wait for them.
