Concerning eyelid surgery?

I have puffiness under my eyes and somewhat loose skin above. I have reasearched eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), but the examples they show are not giving me that good of an idea what to expect. I am only 35, and many if not most of the pictures are of 60+ year olds. Also, I want to go to a good surgeon who will offer reasonable prices. Does anybody have experience with this? What is your recommendation?

Answers:

The first thing to do when considering cosmetic surgery is to find a qualified, experienced plastic surgeon who is board certified in plastic surgery. he will have pictures of his previous patients and those pictures can give you an idea of what he can do for you. if you don't feel confident that he can do a good job, find another surgeon. some plastic surgeons prefer not to post their patient's pictures on their website since they want to preserve their patient's privacy. you may get them to send you some pictures by email though. if you are on a budget, you may also consider medical travel to other countries, but always check on the credentials of the surgeon and make sure he is board certified in plastic surgery. in asia, plastic surgeons often do blepharoplasty on younger patients who want to have double eyelids.

The reason most of the pics are of older people is because loose eyelids is a complication of cataract surgery. i know this cuz my mom had both surgeries. her insurance paid for it because it wasn't considered cosmetic but medical because it was interfering with her vision. i know she always looked tired but after the procedure she looked 100% better.

India is the leading provider of healthcare to foreign nationals; be they from neighboring countries, lacking in facilities and standards, or from the West, circumventing waiting times, high cost private healthcare or private health insurance premiums. The Indian medical industry is now poised to move into a new area of "medical outsourcing," where it serves as an extension to provide services to the overburdened medical care systems in western countries.

There are numerous foreigners that are flying to India and desperate to do so. It is not to see the backwaters of Kerala or the beautiful beaches of Goa but to get much cheaper surgery in Indian Metros. It’s not just the cost that you should consider. You should look into the surgeons and the anesthetist’s credentials as well.

Important Points to Ask about the Surgeon and The Anesthetist who would be operating you-

What professional memberships, training and qualifications do they hold?
Have the surgeon and anesthetist worked together before?
Will the anesthetist perform a pre operative evaluation?
And a postoperative evaluation?
How much recovery time will the procedure entail?
How long will you be hospitalized?
How soon after the operation you can fly home?
Ask to see credentials and ‘before and after’ pictures.

Pills, Excersice,Plastic Surgery or a breast lift? What do you think of breast lift?

hi after i had my daurghter i boobs sag. I need help! they were so prky and firm now there just like pancakes. Im really turning towards plastic surgery of a breast lift. Does any1 knw where i can get done breast lift surgery cheap n good quality?



Answers:


You will probably have to go with surgery because the pills are all gimmicks and exercise strengthens the pectoral muscles under the breast, but does nothing for the breast tissue itself. If you are considering having more children; I would wait on breast surgery as you will have the same problem again and if you breastfeed, it is almost impossible to do as surgery cuts through your milk ducts and reroutes everything.

Many patients travel from UK, Ireland, and Scotland to get low cost Breast Lift Surgery in India. One of the most frequently asked questions when considering Breast Lift Surgery is the price of surgery in India.

But you should consider some other factors as well such as-

a) Check whether after the Breast Lift Surgery you will stay in the hospital or be discharged and taken to a hotel; ask about special care or assistance after the Breast Lift Surgery and about contingency plans in case of complications during the procedure or recovery time.

b) Do they recommend having a close friend or family member travel with you to provide support for Breast Lift Surgery In India.

c) Find out when the India’s high season is so that you can avoid exorbitant flight prices and enjoy more moderate weather.

d) Read up on local costs, the price of meals, transport and hotels, how easy is it to travel around and whether it is considered safe to do so.

The reasons for choosing to travel abroad for Breast Lift Surgery are different for everyone but with lengthy NHS waits and concerns about MRSA advantage of affordable, high quality private healthcare in India, and combining it with a tropical, cultural or relaxing holiday saving thousands of pounds compared with having the treatment done privately in the UK.

I checked out the website of Tour2India4Health –which is the premier most medical tourism company in India offering Breast Lift Surgery in India to International Patients. They have served more than 400 International patients from across the globe (especially US and UK) to get low cost affordable surgery in India at the best Hospitals and Medical Institutions. I think this could be of help for you as well.

Surgery is your only options. If pills were available, don't you think every women would take them?I think if a breast lift would make you feel better about your body, and you are well educated about the risks involved, and you find a good board certified surgeon that you are comfortable with, then GO FOR IT!
Good Luck!
