The Dangers of Thrombosis (DVT) after Surgery

Read more about News Offshore, Plastic Surgery, Treatments

Plastic Surgery or any surgery for that matter could be a lethal combination with long distance travel. According to The Coalition to Prevent DVT approximately 300,000 die annually of Pulmonary Embolism – a complicated form of DVT where the blood clot breaks loose and moves into the lungs, blocking the circulation to the vital organs. This is a life-threatening condition that is linked as one of the dangers of getting cosmetic surgeries offshore.

Thrombus simply means blood clot. Blood clot on deep veins is not dangerous in itself. It is when that piece of clot breaks off and travels downstream to the heart and into the pulmonary circulation system and positions in the lungs. Newly operated travelers are more at risk.

So how soon should you fly after surgery? Mark Gendreau, MD, of Tufts University School of Medicine advises patients to wait 10 to 14 days before flying if you’ve had an orthopedic, chest, abdominal, neurological, or ear, nose, and throat procedure. During the lengthy flight, stay hydrated by drinking fluids – water, please – and avoiding diuretic fluids like caffeine or alcohol. Be an opportunist and stretch your legs whenever you can. Wear compression stockings too!

Lipotourism: Surgery Away From Home

Read more about By Location, News Offshore, Plastic Surgery

Offshore operations is becoming a trend on cosmetic surgery.   Thailand, China, Dominican Republic are among the many countries hosting high-end procedures for breast Augmentation, liposuction, tummy tuck, face lift, breast lift, rhinoplasty, botox and restylane.  Most of these surgery packages offer lower costs on procedures plus vacations, spa treatments and wide list of adventures.  Just like any other fad or programs, cosmetic surgery has pros and cons.  It is always, always imperative to weigh the benefits versus the risks before you even fly out and get sliced.

If you are seriously considering getting surgery done offshore, it is practical to really make a list of your priorities.  Why are you going through this at all?  And for how long can you afford to be away to cover your recovery period? Because if the plan of action is not clear to you, you might just find yourself getting too stressed out travelling, take one flight after another.  After a series of operation, you can’t just fly back too soon.  And if you think  it’s a chance to bask in the sun, explore a jungle or dive to see the corals, think again. New York City Councilman Miguel Martinez was concerned because many New York City residents have been returning home after surgery and then complaining of boils, swelling and red splotches on their skin. In Eastern Europe, two patients who just had tummy tuck found their wounds reopened after the surgery. Our bodies are natural healers but it needs a support system. And what we do after the surgery contributes to the success of the procedure itself.

There are excellent Plastic Surgeons offshore, that’s for sure. So make sure you choose the most dependable surgeon in the land because coming home with a botched surgery is not what you are after. Remedies and repairs are much more difficult on surgeries gone wrong than it would on an inborn-not-so-perfect countenance. My suggestion is: do an extensive research.  Preparation is a key factor to avoid unpleasant surprises and enjoy the experience.  A specific step would be, check if the doctor is a local choice of the country’s leading celebrities. Considering the country’s cost of living, is the cost impossibly cheap? Or is it competitive enough?

Check if the package suits your body and your lifestyle. Always put your medical condition in perspective. Respect your body limits. Don’t sign in for skiing, diving, extended and long flights, swimming nor exercising when you still have fresh stitches. The best package would be one that will promote healing and rejuvenation above tourism and adventure. You deserve no less than an excellent medical care so make sure your decision is well thought-out.

Stopping Stupid Hair Growth

Our bodies are designed to protect itself from unwanted dirt and dusts… with hair.  The hair, no matter how good its intentions are, are just unsightly when it’s sprouting on body parts that we don’t mind to be exposed.  This has been my dilemma.  Different skin types require different methods of hair removal.  That is what I found out when I started waxing instead of shaving because the waxed area darkened.  It was a horrifying experience, not to mention painful.  I swore to myself shaving and waxing is just not for me.  I am yet to try cream or topical solutions like this product placed below:

If you’re looking for a quick, sure way of getting rid of unwanted body hair, then be with me on this quest.  The product claims to be a hair inhibitor that frees both men and women from the painful and costly process of waxing, electrolysis, sugaring or laser.  Sounds good to me.

1.  To achieve a healthy balance of weight and height.   Obesity leads to other complications and we don’t want that.

It’s mainly a list of what to eat, what to do and what to avoid.  So let your first day be today for a whole new you.

The Cosmetic Surgery Wave

What started to be a remedy for War-shattered faces of soldiers has now evolved into something most people are seeking after to cure unsatisfactory inborn facial features. We may used to believe that surgeries for cosmetic changes are all but for the rich and famous, just for the elite. But today cosmetic surgery moved into a wider range of market and a higher level of social acceptance. From reconstructing birth or circumstantial deformalities, the procedure has shifted now, more to conform to a person’s idea of beauty.

The Institute of cosmetic surgery toronto points out that having cosmetic surgery does not only change the person’s look but the person’s confidence as well. Any woman can freely get a nose surgery if she feels her nose does not seem to complement her other facial features. A man with droopy eyes may want to have it corrected with an eyelid surgery. Why not? Through media exposure and education, today’s society is becoming more and more open to the idea that there is nothing wrong in wanting to look as good as you feel. When you had a nose or lip done, you can freely speak of it and no one would get you wrong.

Cosmetic surgery is destined to move with the next wave. While today’s society is open to such changes, it’s important that we do not lose sight of how it should be used. Patients should have realistic and informed expectations of the process before going under the knife. Getting the best doctors with the best techniques and the best tools is the best option there is, always.
