How Painful is Liposuction?

Liposuction isn’t particularly painful, as you’ll most likely be under general anesthesia for the procedure. However, you may feel a considerable amount of discomfort after you wake up from your surgery. This pain usually subsides after about two to three days, but you may need prescription pain medication from your plastic surgeon to feel more comfortable.

How Long Does It Take to Recover from Liposuction?

While every patient is different, most patients can expect to return to work after about one week of recovery. Full recovery from liposuction surgery takes about three to four weeks; at this milestone, patients are usually cleared to return to their normal activities.

What to Expect When Recovering from a Facelift

Admit it: You’re interested in a facelift procedure.

Maybe you’re tired of spending lots of money on skin-tightening creams and serums that don’t deliver results. Or maybe you’ve tried out dermal fillers, but they don’t quite address the sagging skin you’ve started noticing in the bathroom mirror.

Whatever the case may be, you’ve looked into undergoing facelift surgery, but there’s one thing stopping you: the facelift recovery.

What can you expect when recovering from facelift surgery? And how long does it take you to start looking normal again? View More Patient Results

What to Expect From Facelift Recovery

During the first few days of facelift recovery, you’ll notice considerable bruising, swelling, and pain. We highly recommend that patients take this time off from work, as these side effects – combined with general anesthesia after-effects – make it so that patients need to get as much rest as possible.

After the first week, you’ll start to feel yourself again. At this time, some patients are able to return back to work. Additionally, patients are usually able to wear makeup around Day 10, which can be extremely useful for covering any residual signs of bruising.

Patients are […]

What is a Blepharoplasty?

A blepharoplasty procedure is more commonly known as an eyelid lift. This popular surgery is an excellent choice for candidates who have signs of eyelid drooping, sagging skin, bags under their eyes, and more.

Blepharoplasty surgery is commonly divided into two categories: an upper blepharoplasty and a lower blepharoplasty. Here are the differences between the two:

Upper Blepharoplasty: This surgery is designed to correct bagginess around the upper eyelid, as well as the eyebrow region. The upper blepharoplasty surgery can also address skin folds, wrinkles, and lines that may make the patient appear as though they’re constantly tired or half-focused.

Lower Blepharoplasty: This procedure focuses on correcting common aging problems around the lower eye region, including undereye bags, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Lower blepharoplasty surgery is a great choice for candidates who […]

Get a Six-Pack with Liposuction Surgery

Liposuction surgery can help you get six-pack abs because there are specific methods that actually sculpt the six-pack shape in the remaining fat tissue left behind.

While you’ll still get all the body-contouring benefits traditionally associated with liposuction surgery, a procedure that’s focused on delivering a six-pack leaves behind a small amount of fat over the abdomen, which allows the plastic surgeon to sculpt out the shape. The results are visible through the dermis almost immediately, with final results appearing about six weeks after surgery (once swelling and […]

You definitely count yourself as among the growing population of men interested in surgery. But when it comes to the male neck lift, how much will it impact your wallet? Exactly how much does a male neck lift cost?
