Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes between one and two hours to complete. During the procedure, the plastic surgeon makes incisions inside the nostrils or on the base of the nose. The surgeon then reshapes the bone and cartilage of the nose to achieve the desired results. In some cases, the surgeon may add tissue to the nose to achieve a more natural-looking result. Once the procedure is complete, the incisions are closed with sutures and the patient is given a nasal splint to wear for several days.

No, they are not harmful. However, the cause might be harmful, such as sudden weight gain.

Fortunately, hair loss can be corrected with a number of different treatments, including: Scalp ointments and solutions, oral medications, scalp injections.

It is an innovative treatment that relies on the body’s own regenerative abilities. Let’s start at the beginning: platelets are one of the blood’s four most critical components. They promote cell regeneration and growth to heal tissues from within. Treatment starts with a simple blood draw; we then place that sample into a centrifuge to separate the platelets and obtain a concentration that is five times greater than mere blood. This concentration is key because platelets also secrete growth factors that, when injected into the scalp, target hair follicles to promote growth.

Scars comes in many forms, so both your skin type and the type of acne you are dealing with will determine how your skin scars after acne. As a note, while some scarring may fade by itself, such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, most scars don’t go away on their own and will require treatment. Some common scars include: *Hyperpigmentation *Dark spots *Enlarged pores *Icepick scars *Rolling scars *Boxcar scars

Dark spots, similar to hyperpigmentation, are areas of increased pigmentation on the skin. Dark spots are generally flat and can range in color from red to brown, depending on the individual’s skin tone and the stage of healing.

Rolling scars create a wave-like or undulating texture on the skin. These scars are characterized by broad depressions with sloping edges, which give the skin a rolling or wavy appearance.

Boxcar scars are broader depressions with well-defined edges, resembling the appearance of chickenpox scars. These scars often result from inflammatory acne and are characterized by their box-like shape.

Textured scars can be several skin layers deep and make the surface of the skin feel and look bumpy.

Chemical peels remove the topmost layer of skin cells from the skin surface, which is why peels are an ideal solution for treating dark spots and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Chemical peels can also be extremely useful in managing or controlling acne, as well as shrinking the size of enlarged pores.
