There are many methods of rhinoplasty, some of which require surgery, and others are done without any surgery and according to simple and appropriate procedures. Non-surgical procedures are used in several cases, such as raising the tip of the nose and concealing bony prominences, in addition to reducing and narrowing the nose and modifying the nasal tilt, leading to the correction of congenital deformities in the surface of the nose and treatment The problem of narrowed airways.

In this article, you will find a brief explanation of the most famous non-surgical rhinoplasty methods, how to do them and when to resort to each method, and in the end, it is necessary to review the specialist doctor and choose the most appropriate method for each patient’s case.

Nose job with threads

It is the best way for cases of lower nose edge and rhinoplasty without surgery. Here, a special type of invisible surgical sutures is used, which are made of nylon. The threads are inserted through special metal needles that are inserted into the cartilaginous tissue of the nose, and this process takes only 20 to 60 minutes. Under local anesthesia, the threads are not removed after the operation except in special cases, and the results can be observed immediately after the operation and last for a period ranging from 5 to 7 years.

As for the recovery period, the patient can return to the daily routine immediately after the operation.

Reducing the nose with fillers

This technique is usually resorted to in cases of a drop in the bridge of the nose, or there is a rise followed by a decrease in the surface of the nose. A filler is used to fill this down, which gives the optimal shape of the nose. It is a modern technique in which filler materials or special materials are injected into the muscle responsible for raising the descending edge. For the nose, these materials consist of hyaluronic acid, bovine collagen, Botox, or even fat from the person performing the procedure himself.

It can also be injected on the sides of the nose to reduce the nostrils, but it is not used to reduce the nose volume or treat a tilted nose.

The operation takes minutes and requires one session, but its results are not permanent and the patient needs to be re-injected again a year or two after the operation.

Reducing the nose with plasma

It is the first non-surgical method that is used for cases of nose reduction, and it is known as Plasma Energy or plasma. The basic principle of these puppies is electrical energy, which is converted into heat energy that works on cell contraction, which leads to skin tightening and noise reduction, as well as stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. The two most important substances in restoring the freshness and youth of the skin.

The Plasmag technique is performed under the influence of a local anesthetic and does not require hospitalization or special care, and the results can be seen after the operation a few days later.

Nose straightening 

It is considered the latest trend in the world of rhinoplasty. It is made of small plastic pieces whose principle of action is similar to that of orthodontics, and since the nose is made of flexible cartilaginous tissue, wearing these pieces can reshape the cartilage tissue and give it the perfect appearance.

This technique is mainly based on cases of mild deformities and the braces are worn for certain periods or permanently according to what the specialist doctor decides, but it should be noted that this technique is not suitable for treating huge deformities in the bones and cartilage of the nose or significantly reducing the nose.

Turkey has gained wide fame in the field of medical tourism, as it receives many people coming either for treatment or beauty, and Turkey is famous at present for the impressive successes of hair transplant operations in addition to the low costs compared to other countries, and performing hair transplant operations in Turkey is not limited to men. Only, but women resort to it to get rid of severe hair loss or the problem of alopecia, and here the following question is asked: Is it possible to dye hair after hair transplantation, and if possible, how long to wait, and we will answer these and other questions in the following article:

Can hair dye be done after a hair transplant?

Yes, the hair can be dyed after the operation, but it is necessary to wait for a specific period, as the transplanted follicles need extreme care and it is undesirable to use chemicals on the scalp for not less than one month after the operation, after which it is possible to return to the usual hair care routine.

It should be noted that hair dyes contain chemicals such as peroxide and others that can harm the newly transplanted follicles, as these follicles are sensitive to any substance and chemical change, and you should stay away from hairspray and tighten the hair roots when doing any hairstyle.

It is preferable if it is necessary to dye the hair before the hair transplantation process and to obtain the appearance that the woman wants, and at the same time, we ensure that the transplanted follicles are not exposed to any damage. The hair is dyed several days before the transplantation, due to the possibility of coloring the scalp with the dye, and thus the difficulty of opening channels for transplanting the follicles during the hair transplantation process.

How long should one wait after the transplant to do hair dye?

To obtain the desired results, it is necessary to adhere to the instructions of the specialist and to provide great care to the follicles that were implanted and not to touch them or touch the area in which the operation was performed during the first week until the wound heals and to ensure that no side effects occur that may hinder the process of digging the transplanted hair growth.

As for the issue of hair dyeing, it is necessary to wait for a period of at least one month from the date of hair transplantation to ensure the stability of the transplanted follicles and the complete recovery of the transplanted area, and in the end, this period may vary from one person to another as it can extend in some cases to six weeks, and Doing the first dye after hair transplantation by a specialized hairdresser due to his experience in the chemicals of dye and its products, thus avoiding any mistake that could occur during dyeing.

Botox injections are not only used in the cosmetic field and get rid of wrinkles, but are also used to treat several medical problems such as neck spasm, excessive sweating, lazy eyes, migraine headaches and overactive bladder.

Botox injections are resorted to in women who want to get rid of wrinkles and get a youthful appearance, as it works to prevent the contraction of the muscles responsible for facial expressions, as the atrophy of these muscles leads to the appearance of wrinkles.

Botox injections contain a toxin called onobotulinumtoxinA, which is produced by the microbe that causes botulism, and it is one of the types of food poisoning and here the muscle is temporarily prevented from moving, and Botox is known as the first treatment that contains botulinum toxin.

Why is Botox injection used?

As we mentioned previously, Botox injections are used to get rid of wrinkles in the forehead area and around the eyes, as Botox works to block certain chemical signals from the nerves that are responsible for muscle contraction, this process leads to temporary relaxation of the facial muscles.

Botox injections are used in the medical field and for several conditions such as:

• Cervical dystonia: In this case, the patient suffers from involuntary contraction of the neck muscles, which leads to moving the neck into an uncomfortable position or twisting the neck.
• Excessive sweating. Botox injections are used to treat excessive sweating, which is perspiration, despite the absence of a high temperature and no muscular effort.
• Lazy eye and its main cause is an imbalance of the muscles responsible for fixing the position of the eyes
• Eye twitching. Muscle contractures or twitching around the eyes can be relieved by Botox injections.
• Chronic Migraine: It is possible to relieve headaches with Botox injections, especially if the headache period exceeds 15 days continuously.
• Bladder dysfunction: Doctors have recently resorted to Botox injections to treat cases of urinary incontinence caused by an overactive bladder.
• Muscle contractures. Muscle contractures caused by some neurodegenerative conditions, such as cerebral palsy, that cause the extremities to recoil toward the middle of the body, can be treated.

Stages of the Botox injection process

Pre Botox 

First, an agreement is made with the patient about the area to be treated and the most appropriate for the patient is determined based on the skin, its thickness, and its texture, and then a local anesthetic ointment is placed on the skin, noting that general anesthesia may be needed in some special cases, and then the substance is injected. The patient informs the competent doctor of all the medications he is taking before starting any step.

During the botox injection procedure

The procedure takes about 10 minutes. A thin syringe is inserted under the skin of the face in the muscle line, then the substance is injected. Small bleeding may occur in the area of ​​the needle insertion, which stops within a few minutes.

Post procedure

It is possible to go home immediately after the end of the injection, and you can notice after signs of local bleeding and swelling in the injection area, which disappear within a few days, and you can feel some pain after the injection, and this is normal and is treated with some painkillers, but in the case of high temperature and severe bleeding Or purulent secretions or loss of facial sensation, here you should see a doctor immediately.

Many people who suffer from sagging skin resort to tightening certain areas of the body, including the arm lift operation, which is used to get rid of saggy skin and excess fat in the arm. As we age, this procedure improves the outer shape of the arm, in addition to relieving and preventing infections in the saggy skin area as a result of the accumulation of dirt and sweat in the area.

Persons eligible for arm lift surgery:

• People who have sagging skin on their arms as a result of being underweight.
• People who underwent liposuction.
• People who suffer from excess fat and skin on the arms.

Types of arm lift operations:

There are two main types of arm lift:

Full tightening: This procedure is used in cases of severe sagging, noting that sagging is in the upper and lower arm, and here a longitudinal and transverse wound is made.

Simple tightening: in cases of simple and specific sagging, in addition to the fact that sagging is concentrated in the upper arm only, and only a transverse wound is made.

Arm lift surgery:

Arm lift operation is performed under anesthesia, either local anesthetic or general anesthetic, and there are several ways to perform this operation, which are classified as follows:

Operation in the case of light sagging

Here, the sagging is confined to the upper arm only. In this case, a transverse wound is made in the upper arm, specifically in the armpit area, and then the excess skin is excised, especially in the inner area of ​​the arms.

One of the advantages of this procedure is that the surgical scar is hidden, and it disappears completely after a year, and this method works to tighten the arms by 50% to 70% only.

Operation in the case of medium sagging

One of the advantages of this method is that about 70% to 90% of the loose and excess skin is removed, and a wound is made here that extends from the armpit to the elbow from the inner side, but this scar does not go away and this scar remains visible and cannot be hidden.

Operation in case of severe sagging

Two incisions are made, a transverse wound in the upper arm, in addition to a longitudinal wound from the upper arm to the elbow, and then a tube is installed under the skin and works to drain fluids that may collect after the operation, and the process of withdrawing fluids takes a day or two until the amount of fluid decreases The exudate that comes out through the tube, is then pulled out, the wound closed and appropriately hidden inside the arm with cosmetic sutures.

This operation is performed under the influence of general anesthesia and takes one to three hours, and it is necessary to note that the patient needs a period of two or three days to be able to leave the hospital.

Post-operative steps:

The patient must follow the doctor’s instructions after the operation, which stipulate wearing a special corset for about six weeks, refraining from exercising for a minimum of 6 weeks, taking great care not to get water to the wound, and waiting until one day after removing the stitches, in addition to the obligation to refrain from Smoking for two weeks after the operation.

In general, the patient needs a recovery period of no less than ten days to be able to return to the routine of daily life, emphasizing the necessity of caring for the wound daily by the doctor, and returning to the specialist doctor when feeling increased pain or noticing redness or tearing or pus emerging from the wound, In this case, the doctor can prescribe the appropriate analgesic treatment.

Contraindications to arm lift surgery

If the patient suffers from obesity, in addition to patients with diabetes and heart patients, they are more likely to be exposed to complications of the operation.

Non-surgical methods of arm lift:

• Arm sagging treatment with golden threads: a very safe and painless technique, and results can be seen immediately.
• Laser arm lift: It is used in cases of moderate and simple sagging, and its advantages are that it does not leave any side effects on the skin and gives ideal results.
• Vaser: Ultrasonic cavitation waves are used, which work to break up the fat and thus safely obtain a tighter arm. The duration of the session is 50 minutes and requires 5 to 12 sessions until the results are complete.

The problem of baldness and hair loss is widespread today, as more than 50% of men over the age of fifty suffer from the problem of baldness, and 30% of the young generation suffer from early baldness and this problem is not limited to men only, Rather, many women who have reached menopause suffer from the problem of severe hair loss and thus baldness, and the causes of the problem of hair loss are multiple, where genetics plays the largest role in this area, and the genes inherited from parents control the sensitivity of hair follicles to the hormone DHT, and the causes of baldness and hair loss are also attributed to pathological factors such as anemia, or thyroid disorders, therapeutic factors such as exposure to radiotherapy or chemotherapy, pharmacological factors such as chronic use of some types of drugs, and finally psychological factors such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety and stress.

Modern science and medicine come as a solution to this problem, and many treatments and methods have appeared since 15 years to this day, the most important of which is hair transplantation, which is a final and permanent solution to the problem of baldness, which encouraged many people to undergo this procedure, specifically in Turkey, which is one of the first countries in the field of  Aesthetic medicine and medical tourism.

FUE hair transplant

It is the most common method in hair transplant centers in Turkey, and it is the oldest applied method, and the reason for its wide spread is due to the ease of application, ensuring the success of the operation and obtaining the expected results in addition to the mild side effects and an easy and short recovery period

Hair transplantation is carried out in three stages:

•  At first, local anesthesia is used and then the location of the hair follicles is selected, usually the posterior or temporal regions of the head are selected, then the extraction process begins from the donor area after the haircut.
• The stage of opening the channels in the balding area, and here it is important to be careful about the places of opening and distributing them in accordance with the natural distribution of the hair, which ensures a natural appearance of the hair.
• Finally, the extracted follicles are implanted into the previously opened channels.

Hair transplantation using Choi pens

This technique is characterized by good results and the absence of the need to open the channels using small wounds as in the rest of the techniques in addition to the very few side effects, and it is a modern technique that relies on the use of Choi pens that work to drop the follicles that must be implanted directly into the scalp, and it is the preferred technique for women as It does not require head shaving.

How is the lip filler done?

The process of lip injection with filler is quick and can be done directly in the doctor’s office. The filler is injected with very fine needles. Local anesthesia is used before starting the injection to relieve pain. Ice can also be used on the lips to numb the area and reduce the appearance of bruises and swelling. It is advised not to put any A lip product immediately after the procedure.

When will the final results of the lip fillers appear?

The results of lip injections with filler appear immediately after the operation, but you must wait until the swelling is gone for the results to appear completely clear, and in general, the results take about 4 weeks to fully appear, until the filler stabilizes and the results last about 6 months.

Types of lip fillers

The types of fillers differ according to the injection material, which is related to the chemical composition, the length of time they remain in the lips, and their ability to give the appearance of fullness:

Collagen Filler

It is the most used type in injections, due to the remarkable results obtained in terms of beautiful shape and freshness, and collagen works to moisturize the skin and lips, but this substance is defective in the short duration of the effect and the injection and renewal must be continued constantly.

There are many reasons and reasons for eyebrow beautification procedures, they can be for pathological, psychological, or aesthetic reasons, and in the end, the issue of hair loss in general greatly affects the psychological state of the person and negatively affects his appearance, and among these reasons we mention:

Congenital causes: In this case, the eyebrows do not grow at all in person, which is a congenital defect.

Pathological causes: where hair loss is caused by a specific skin disease or when suffering from an autoimmune disease and systemic diseases, but the disease must be treated initially before resorting to eyebrow transplantation.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder: Here a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder can perform harmful behaviors to the body, such as removing psychological hair from the head and eyebrow.

Accidents and burns: Exposure to a strong shock or a deep wound, or when exposed to normal burns or incendiary chemicals can lead to a lack of hair regrowth in the eyebrow area.

Other causes can be genetics or when chemotherapy for cancer patients causes complete hair loss.

How to perform the eyebrow transplant in Turkey 

The FUE technique for picking hair follicles is the best and easiest way to grow eyebrows, and the recovery period after the operation is faster and does not carry any effects or problems.

When comparing eyebrow hair transplantation with head hair transplantation, we find that it differs from it in terms of the number of extracted hairs and the diameter of the hair. When transplanting the eyebrows, it must contain a single hair of a small diameter, but when transplanting the head, it contains three or four hairs of a larger diameter.

As for the graft extraction area, the posterior (occipital) region was chosen because the hair in it is similar to the nature of the eyebrow stone.

In the beginning, it is agreed with the patient on the drawing of the eyebrows that suit the shape of his face. The process of eyebrow hair transplantation is simple and does not require general anesthesia, as local anesthesia is sufficient, and it takes place over three to four hours, during which the grafts are extracted from the head and transplanted into Eyebrows according to the agreed-upon drawing.

The operation requires extreme precision in the work and by a specialized and meticulous doctor, and in general cases, 250 hair follicles must be extracted to obtain good results.

The results of eyebrow transplantation in Turkey

Over the past years, Turkey has gained a wide reputation in the field of hair transplantation, whether for the head or eyebrows, and this procedure has a great success rate and does not carry any side effects, but the degree of satisfaction with the results can vary according to the patient’s condition and the test of a competent and skilled doctor and a reputable medical center And in the end, the location of the operation must be chosen carefully, because the process of an eyebrow transplantation is a sensitive site, and any defect in it will lead to a distortion in the shape of the face and it is difficult to avoid it in most cases.

Eyebrow restoration (Choi pens) technique

This technique is known as a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that does not require any kind of anesthesia, and this technique is used if it is not possible to perform eyebrow transplantation in pathological cases such as alopecia or scars and deep burns, and some women resort to this technique for purely cosmetic purposes to reach Beautiful eyebrow shape, and drawing is done over the eyebrow area with a gentle pigment on the skin, similar to the natural hair of the eyebrows. It is a technique with immediate results and does not need to wait for the recovery period to pass.

Turkey has gained wide fame in the medical sector and the field of cosmetic operations due to the quality of services, advanced technology, and low costs, and cosmetic dental crowns have occupied an important rank in Turkey because of the modern techniques and materials that give the smile a harmonious and natural appearance, which is strong and unobtrusive.

This procedure can be applied to people who suffer from tooth decay and when a large part of the tooth enamel is lost and if it is difficult to restore the tooth without a filling, and this procedure can also be used to compensate for the loss of some teeth without dental implants

What is coronation or dental crowns in Turkey?

It is an external mold that has the same shape, structure, and color as the teeth and is made of different materials such as zircon or porcelain. This procedure is used in cases of caries and to protect the tooth from falling, erosion, or staining of the teeth that cannot be treated.

The process of dental crowning is carried out in several sessions, the number of which varies according to the case of each patient in terms of the extent of tooth decay or the number of teeth desired to be treated, and this process requires local anesthesia. 

The second step is to install the covering in the right place. 

To ensure good and reliable results, careful selection of the specialist doctor and the location of the operation is necessary.

Veneers or zirconium for dental crowns in Turkey

Zircon

The dental crown technique in Turkey with zircon is characterized by several features that made it the preferred technique among dentists, and zircon is a precious metal of the silicate category used in several fields, including dental cosmetics, the manufacture of crowns and jaw bridges, and it is treated with a substance called Ethereum, which is a rare metal element.

It is a material that is resistant to breakage or damage and works to activate the process of merging the gums with the coatings, which reduces the appearance of gum problems and recurrent infections. It has a white color with high transparency, which makes it the best choice for cosmetic dentistry as it is compatible with the different colors of the teeth and thus obtaining a natural appearance for a smile.

Veneer

Veneers are made of porcelain and are in the form of a thin crust with bright white color and are installed on the outer face of the teeth, and this technique is used to change the size of the teeth, hide their defects or increase their whiteness, which gives the smile a beautiful appearance and within a short time.

The technique of cosmetic dental veneers is one of the best techniques because it does not require special care, and works to maintain a healthy enamel of the teeth, and the period of adaptation to the coating does not require a long period.

However, this technique is known to have a high cost in general, but in the end, the costs of installing dental veneers in Turkey are less than in other countries, and there are many centers specialized in this procedure.

Baldness and hair loss remained a preoccupation for many people, whether men or women, until the eighties of the last century, when the natural hair transplant technique was invented.

Recently, a new trend has emerged in the world of hair transplantation, which is the transplantation of long hair using artificial hair as an alternative to natural hair transplantation.

Long hair transplantation with artificial hair

The basic principle of artificial hair transplantation depends on the use of filaments made of unnatural materials such as polyester. This technique is of lower cost and does not depend on the ability of the donor area to cover baldness. The artificial hair also comes in different colors and lengths according to the patient’s condition.

Stages of long hair transplantation with artificial hair:

In the first stage, the patient’s condition is studied and the appropriate hair type, color, and length are selected.

The area where the artificial hair will be implanted is numbed using local anesthesia.

The hairs are held by a special needle and then the synthetic hair is fixed superficially on the scalp.

This technique is faster than the process of natural hair transplantation, as it does not include the stage of picking the follicles from the donor area and extending for three or four hours.

As for the results, they can be previewed immediately after the operation, as the artificial hair that was implanted is what is required.

One of the advantages of this technique is that it is low in cost, in addition to that it does not require a return to the ability of the donor area until the possibility of performing it is determined.

Long hair transplant with natural hair:

This method relies on the use of the slice FUT technique and it is a kind of technique in which the natural hair of the same person is used, and the procedure begins by taking a thin slice from the patient’s donor area and then the follicles within it are sorted, and then channels are opened in the area where the hair is to be transplanted to receive Grafts, and the follicles are installed within the horrific area according to certain coordination and density.

The length of the transplanted hair is between 2 to 8 cm, depending on the area to be transplanted, and the slide technique in hair transplantation can lead to the appearance of a thin linear scar in the donor area, but it does not appear to be covered by hair.

Advantages of long hair transplantation with the slide FUT technique

This technique does not require haircuts, which makes it the preferred technique for women, as, for men, hair can be shaved with a length of two centimeters

The short recovery period, which lasts about two weeks, after which the patient can return to the daily routine

Long hair transplantation helps to hide the effects of the operation, and wigs can be used during the rest period, as the transplanted hair falls out in preparation for hair growth in its final form.

The rapid appearance of results, which begins to appear clearly after about six months of the operation, as for the final result, can take a period of one to two years after the operation.

The process of hair transplantation with the slide technique has a high success rate and it is unlikely that the transplanted hair will fall out in any case, except when an immune disease or a specific accident occurs that causes hair loss.
