A. Recovery time depends on the type of procedure:

• Botox or fillers for instance are normal procedures that take a short time and the patient usually can return to normal business after the procedure.
• Cosmetic surgery – operations that do not require large incisions (eg, blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty) take about 1-2 weeks to heal.
• Some operations including the facelift, tummy tuck, or liposuction may take a week or two before the patient can get out of bed, but full recuperation can take a few months.

A. The outcome of the majority of surgeries done at VG Plastic Surgery Clinic is permanent, or at least the permanency is for a lifetime unless influenced by factors including aging, lifestyle, and genetic predisposition. For example:

• Eyelid surgery and rhinoplasty, as well as other facial surgeries, can be expected to give lasting enhancements.
• Some of the body shaping procedures which include liposuction or tummy tuck if done correctly, give permanent results when the appropriate weight control measures have been put in place.
• Cosmetic surgery treatments like Botox and fillers are temporary, they last for 6 months to 1 year and need maintenance.

A. Preoperative instructions will depend on the type of surgery, but generally, patients should:

• There are prohibitions on smoking for several weeks before the operation and on alcohol use.
• Prevent the use of specific medicines (e.g., anticoagulants) which may cause bleeding.
• Read and adhere to diets ( fasting before undergoing surgery if anesthesia is going to be used).
• Organize follow-up care and help in performing activities of daily living during the recovery process.

A. VG Plastic Surgery Clinic ensures that patients benefit from its process by employing the latest technologies in surgery to make scaring not easily seen. For instance, rhinoplasty and facelifts usually have cuts made along the lines of the facial skin or behind the ear as this will not show. In surgeries such as liposuction and V-line jaw surgery, scarring is also minimized by inserting a small cut that cannot easily be seen.

A. Any surgery is associated with certain risks and these include the development of infection, bleeding, scarring or undesired results. However, VG Plastic Surgery Clinic has a stringent security measure and the surgeons do the operations experts to reduce such incidences.
