What are the hazards of cosmetic surgery? What preparations should I make for cosmetic surgery?
With the improvement of material life, people have higher and higher requirements for their own appearance. So many female friends will choose plastic surgery to make themselves more and more beautiful. Plastic surgery is to correct a defective part or make a part more and more perfect through surgery. But any operation is dangerous, so what are the hazards of cosmetic surgery? What preparations should I make for cosmetic surgery?

1. What are the hazards of cosmetic surgery?

1, liposuction can lead to fat embolism.

Liposuction seems simple, but it may be life-threatening. After the fat is sucked out, the damaged fat drops enter the blood along the ruptured venules, causing organ embolism, resulting in "fat embolism syndrome", which is related to the excessive liposuction area. Although liposuction technology is mature at present, and the incidence of "fat embolism syndrome" is only1/200,000, we must pay attention to the risks before operation.

2. Eyelid ectropion may occur in pouch surgery.

Eyelid ectropion may occur in pouch surgery, and there are even cases of compression of arteries causing blindness in clinic.

Injection is a high-risk cosmetic surgery.

Injection beauty is very risky. For example, botulinum toxin can temporarily eliminate wrinkles, but there will be adverse reactions such as headache, allergy, diplopia and unnatural expression.

4. More than half of V-shaped face operations have facial anesthesia complications.

Double chin surgery, also called V-face surgery in Korea, is to achieve a perfect face effect by adjusting the position of the upper and lower jaws. The biggest effect is to create a "small V face" like Zhang Mingxing. However, this operation is more difficult. According to the investigation, bimaxillary surgery will be accompanied by many complications, including permanent facial numbness and even facial paralysis. According to a survey released by AFP recently, South Korea, which is famous for plastic surgery, performs an average of 5,000 double chin operations every year, and about 52% of them have neurological problems such as facial numbness after surgery.

Bijaw surgery is to correct the problems caused by jaw development by adjusting the position of upper and lower jaws, such as "floor cover", buck teeth, midface depression and other problems that affect chewing and speaking. However, due to the great improvement after operation, it can be improved into a perfect face shape, so it gradually shifted from therapeutic repair surgery to cosmetic surgery. Strictly speaking, bimaxillary surgery is a kind of functional repair surgery, not cosmetic surgery, which may lead to high complications.

5. I've always wanted plastic surgery or "body deformation"

Why do some people have a good appearance but have repeated plastic surgery? In the eyes of others, they are not bad; In their own eyes, they feel that their bodies and faces are "deformed". It turns out that these people suffer from a mental illness called "body deformation", which is manifested in the crazy demonization of their own image. Such patients pay too much attention to the "defects" in their body image and feel ugly in the mirror, which leads to great psychological pressure, depression and anxiety, and the risk of suicide may be 45 times that of normal people.

6. Minors cannot have plastic surgery.

From the medical point of view, minors are in the stage of physical development, and the various systems of the human body are not fully developed. If cosmetic plastic surgery is performed at this time, the postoperative effect may deviate from the expected requirements. Blind cosmetic surgery is also easy to cause developmental disorders of plastic parts, and the effect is often counterproductive. Congenital deformities such as cleft lip and palate and microtia are excluded. Or it is a deformity caused by a disease that should be corrected by surgery./kloc-minors under 0/8 are generally not recommended for plastic surgery.

Second, what preparations should be made for cosmetic surgery?

1. painkillers prescribed by doctors

Doctors usually prescribe some painkillers and antibiotics before surgery. The pharmacy only takes medicine by prescription, so it's best to ask the doctor to give you a prescription in advance to avoid being in a hurry on the day of operation.

2. Disposable gloves

Disposable gloves are mainly for your nursing staff, but many people tend to ignore them. Some traumatic plastic surgery (such as abdominal plastic surgery, face lift surgery) need drainage after surgery, and there may be accidental bleeding or vomiting caused by anesthesia. Disposable gloves prepared in advance can provide convenience for your caregivers. Besides, it would be better to bring some gauze.

3. Reusable gel-like ice packs

Ice packs are mainly used for postoperative cold compress to reduce swelling and congestion, but it is best to choose gel-like ice packs with smooth edges instead of ice. Because the gel-like ice pack is softer, it will be more comfortable to apply it to the anesthesia part of blood stasis. Of course, make sure the ice pack doesn't leak.

4. Antibiotic ointment and vaseline oil

Plastic surgery will cause some trauma more or less. Vaseline oil and antibiotic ointment can moisten the wound and prevent infection.

5. Juice and soda

When taking medicine, juice and soda water are mainly used to relieve bitterness, and ginger juice and diluted juice are better.

6, light soup food

If the operation adopts general anesthesia, it will affect appetite early after operation. At this time, the diet should be based on light and chewy food. If you are doing facial plastic surgery, you should also try to avoid brittle foods, such as biscuits.

7. Flexible straws

It is difficult to sit up after plastic surgery under general anesthesia. When you are lying down, straws can make it easier for you to drink water.

8. pillows of different sizes

The first night after the operation is the hardest. At this time, you can put pillows of the right size under your knees, under your head and on both sides to reduce discomfort.
