Cosmetic Surgery - Popular Procedures


It seems that cosmetic surgery can now offer a solution to almost any problem we can perceive with our appearance. Whether we wish to alter something about our appearance or simply turn back the hands of time there seem to be so many options available to us and in this article we'll take a look at a few of the most popular.

o Facelift surgery - used to treat sagging facial contours and skin caused by loss of elasticity as we age and suffer the effects of gravity. Under a general anaesthetic an incision is made from the ear to the hairline at the top of the head and the excess skin and tissue is trimmed away and facial muscles tightened to give a more fresh faced and youthful appearance.

o Weight loss surgery - There are a couple of widely used methods available; lap band surgery whereby a band is placed around the stomach to make a new smaller pocket meaning you feel fuller more quickly. Secondly; Gastric Bypass surgery whereby the stomach is again made into a smaller pouch and a large portion of the small intestine bypassed in order for you to absorb less nutrients.

o Breast enlargement surgery - with a choice of incision sites now meaning you can have virtually invisible scars and safe medical grade silicon or saline implants this procedure has advanced much in the last decade. Breast enlargement surgery can help tackle asymmetry and sagging boobs and give you back a more youthful and fuller shape in this area.

o Eye bag removal surgery (Blepharoplasty) - The area that can give the game away, many people suffer from lower eye bags which are composed of fatty deposits. During this simple procedure the excess skin and underlying fatty tissue is trimmed away giving a much tighter and less tired appearance.

So there you have it, some of the most commonly opted for plastic surgeries available today and, with many more available, there really isn't much you can't change about your appearance.




If you are considering cosmetic surgery procedures in the UK such as weight loss surgery you should seek an accredited surgeon who is registered with BAPRAS or BAAPS to ensure this plastic surgery runs smoothly.
