breast augmentation procedure.

17. • Buttock augmentation or gluteoplasty denotes the plastic surgery for the
correction of the congenital, traumatic, and acquired defects and

the proper healing of the surgical incision.
Rhinoplasty

21. • Liposuction or lipoplasty is a cosmetic surgery that removes fat from
many different sites on the human body. Areas affected can range from
the abdomen, thighs and buttocks, to the neck, backs of the arms and
elsewhere.
• Removal of very large volumes of fat is a complex and potentially life-
threatening procedure. The more fat removed, the higher the surgical
risk.
• The procedure may be performed under general, regional, or
local anesthesia. The safety of the technique relates not only to the
amount of tissue removed, but to the choice of anesthetic and the
patient's overall health.
• It is ideal for the patient to be as fit as possible before the procedure and
not to have smoked for several months.
Liposuction

22. • Side effects – bruising, swelling, varying sized scars, pain and numbness
• Complications –

Liposuction

23. • Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin A. They work by blocking the
nerves that contract muscles, softening the appearance of wrinkles.
• Botulinum toxin injections block certain chemical signals from nerves,
mostly signals that cause muscles to contract. The most common use of
these injections is to temporarily relax the facial muscles that underlie and
cause wrinkles, such as frown lines and forehead furrows.
• Other conditions are lazy eye, cervical dystonia, muscle contractures or
chronic migraine.
Botox

24. • Botulinum toxin injections usually begin working a few days after
treatment. Depending on the problem being treated, the effect may last
for three to 12 months. Tomaintain the effect, regular follow-up
injections should be done.
• Side effects includes headaches, bruising, pain at the site of injection,
and, in fewer than 1% of cases, drooping eyelids or eyebrows that return
to their natural position within a few months.

25. • A chemical peel is a technique used to improve and smooth the texture
of the facial skin using a chemical solution that causes the dead skin
to slough off and eventually peel off.
• The regenerated skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled than the old
skin.
• Possible complications include photosensitivity, prolonged erythema,
pigmentary changes, skin atrophy, and textural changes.
• Types -
o Alpha hydroxy acid peels
o Beta hydroxy acid peels
o Jessner's peel
o Retinoic acid peel
