AESTHETIC TREATMENT OF VASCULAR LESIONS OF THE VASCULAR LASER SKIN

One of the most common indications for laser treatmentof cutaneous vascular lesions are, who have had a big impact as a therapeutic option for its effectiveness, safety, tolerability and outcomes.

The application is through the skin, why use different physical media (gels cold, cold air, etc.) To cool the skin without adversely affecting the tissues and adjacent structures. The method is slightly painful, so that in some cases require the use of analgesic creams, the patient can resume their activities after the end of session.

How does the laser vascular

The indications of the laser in the management of vascular lesions based on the theory of selective photothermolysis, which verifies the capacity by a specific wavelength to be absorbed and destroy a specific chromophore without damaging the collateral or underlying structures. In the case of vascular lesions, the target chromophore we will discuss is the pigment in red blood cells known as hemoglobin. Thus, the glass surrounding it absorbs enough energy and coagulated.

In other words, the laser causes a temperature increase inside the treated vessel, which produces blood clotting with subsequent collapse of the walls of the vessel and its disappearance by gradual absorption by the body.

Lower extremity vascular dilatations. Sometimes the vessels to be treated are of the highest caliber. This is especially common when dealing with the cosmetic treatment of vascular dilatation of the lower extremities. Sclerotherapy has traditionally been regarded as the technique of choice for treatment, but the Nd: YAG long pulse in percutaneous application has gained popularity for treatment, including those with the highest caliber. With this laser treatment of persistent clearances are achieved over 70% of vessels over 80% of patients after several treatment sessions depending on the type of vessel, obtaining clearances for more than 50% of the vessels after a single session treatment. Among the vascular lesions can be found from the more superficial and smaller caliber such as telangiectasia or spider veins to the highest caliber and the deeper leg veins and reticular veins.

The number of sessions used are variable depending on the type of vascular injuryand the extent of it. The evaluation of response to treatment should be at least 2 months of each session because this is the minimum time required to produce the reabsorption of these vessels treated during this period. It is essential to strict photoprotection of the treated areas to prevent post-inflammatory pigmentation.

This system is used to treat safely and effectively various additional vascular lesions as rosacea, hemangiomas, reticular veins, etc …

Vascular laser results

The results are starting to look after 2 months of the first session, still needed an average of between 4 and 6 sessions. The time between sessions must be at least 2 months, obtaining clearance results up to 90% depending on the type of lesion.

Cosmetic surgery is usually performed to correct a physical abnormality or to enhance a feature of the body and improve your appearance. The cosmetic surgery is a broad field which may offer options such as reconstructive surgery for a patient after a burn or other physical trauma, but also can be used to remove wrinkles, the breast augmentation, or reshape the nose. In a not too distant past, this was limited to operate, something that was absolutely necessary for the health and welfare of the patient, such as skin graft surgery for severe burns, the reconstruction of a displaced eye, repair a broken nose or jaw, remove scars and even to treat a birthmark on his face. Cosmetic surgery was used regularly after the First World War, as the treatment of wounds brought back hope to the young soldiers.

For almost 50 years the rich and famous opted to choose the elective cosmetic surgery when he was still considered taboo. Celebrities and professional models and then disappeared for months appeared much younger, prettier and thinner. Over time it has made ??known the evolution of cosmetic surgery , which has been accepted and even encouraged in some circles.

The tummy tuck or cosmetic surgery of the abdomen, is a cosmetic surgery operation greater than dry skin and excess fat from the middle and lower abdomen while encircling the abdominal wall muscles.

This plastic surgery can substantially improve the appearance of an outgoing abdomen.

The aesthetic surgery of the abdomen is an important procedure that requires careful preparation by the patient. Once the plastic surgery of the abdomen, recovery takes several weeks to allow the body to heal incisions and recovery of muscle manipulation.

However, cosmetic surgery of the abdomen offers patients many benefits, which include improved appearance and in many cases, a higher level of confidence.

If you are thinking about getting a cosmetic surgery of the abdomen, try to explain who can hacérsela and what results you can expect.

THE BEST CANDIDATES FOR A Tummy Tuck

The best candidates for cosmetic surgery of the abdomen are women and men who remain in good physical condition, have a localized fat deposit or loose skin at the height of the abdomen. This cosmetic surgery is especially beneficial for women after multiple pregnancies have been a stretch of your abdominal muscles which is irreversible to the gym.

Patients who are planning a reduction of weight should postpone cosmetic surgery , as well as women who are thinking about becoming pregnant again. In these vertical muscles in the abdomen can be separated again, losing some of the effect achieved with the intervention.

TYPES OF ANESTHESIA IN A Tummy Tuck

Your surgeon may choose general anesthesia, where you will sleep throughout the operation, or an epidural which leaves no feeling the bottom of the body. In partial cases, the cosmetic surgery can be done under local anesthesia with or without the addition of intravenous sedation.

The tummy tuck can be performed with general or local anesthesia. If you decide to undergo the procedure under local anesthesia, stay awake as long as the plastic surgery of the abdomen.

The aesthetic surgery of the abdomen can last up to five full hours, depending on the extent of the job you want. Stay awake during a surgical procedure performed so long has advantages and disadvantages, but most surgeons will recommend sedation through general anesthesia.

Although being sedated for long periods of time involves some risks, many surgeons agree that a cosmetic surgery of the abdomen with the patient is fully sedated a safer procedure.

This is because when the patient is unconscious, the abdominal muscles are completely relaxed, allowing the surgeon to complete the procedure with greater speed and convenience, but their task is hindered by a sudden movement or body muscle.

Occasionally, the surgeon will use local anesthesia while performing the mini tummy tuck , which usually lasts about an hour and a half.

I think interesting to explain the differences between a good result, an unsatisfactory outcome, bad outcome, complications and sequelae.

A good result
The good results delighted both the patient and the surgeon . No matter that may be needed later to carry out some minor retouching to improve a scar, or some other minor detail, essentially, is that both are happy. There is no doubt that the results depend to a large extent, existing initial conditions, ie you can not expect the same of a facelift in a man 40 years in one of 70, or the tummy of a obese woman or a fine. When you have pinpointed the prospects of the operation, both the former and be satisfied.

On the other hand, can be distinguished from major surgery or previously planned in several surgical (first make a lift to the top of the face and then the bottom) than it is to be finished. For example, rhinoplasty is not uncommon for the need to tweak the initial surgery. The causes are multiple and include the peculiarities of the healing, the limitations of the patient’s own tissue, the lack of understanding between what the patient or the like, and what the surgeon proposes, and of course, depends on skill of the surgeon himself.

An increasing number of male patients who resort to cosmetic surgery to improve their image. Fewer prejudices which involved the male alien to the needs of caring for the appearance of your body.

Unlike the vast majority of medical specialties, cosmetic surgery is not directed to the patient, but to healthy individuals who carry them out of their own volition.
The Cosmetic Surgery or Cosmetic Surgery is beautifying the body shapes and face, recover the beauty of youth or adjust physical characteristics or ethnic considered unsatisfactory by the patient.

Make your flaws your greatest virtues!
With this maxim we expose what we see as the ideal of experience of our own body, ie the relationship with ourselves. When this is impossible for us, which is quite normal, and altered physical conditions or characteristics to a greater or lesser degree our existence, we can look and find the solution in plastic surgery.

It is important to note that the intensity of the defect is usually not proportional to the seriousness of the problem is, so it’s fair to accept the subjectivity of the assessments we make about ourselves.

It is quite common in the consultation meeting a patient who seems most natural and even aesthetics a grotesque nose and scratching it, however, greatly concerned about a small and subtle detachment of part of an ear … However, we believe the best position is to respect those forms that do not cause problems to the patient and try to remedy that if it would cause problems. Moreover, we believe that our main function is to assist the welfare of human beings (we operate to the patient). However, for the plastic surgeon to study the degree of reality of complaints using their ability to analyze and weigh the risk-benefit factor (do not operate all that the patient wants but what we believe will be beneficial).

After this prologue, and to provide information about a body part that concerns you personally or has an interest, we offer this method of searching both the problems and their possible solutions.

If something does not support cosmetic surgery is mediocrity. The most exciting of Cosmetic Surgery is the pursuit of perfection. Michelangelo said that small things make perfection, but perfection is no small thing. Two characteristics define cosmetic surgery: the importance of detail and the need for a sense of aesthetics. Mastered the technique, it is the latter who distinguishes two surgeons, and also the aesthetic sense is not studied
