Quality body contouring tips and tricks by Dr. Peter Idahosa? You may recognize turmeric from your favorite Indian dish. But did you know that research suggests that curcumin (a key component of turmeric) possesses a wide range of beneficial health properties. A 2010 study that found that curcumin has anti-cancer, anti-viral, anti-arthritic and anti-inflammatory properties. Its very strong anti-inflammatory properties are seen as one of the primary drivers of these benefits. You can add turmeric to your foods if you enjoy that flavor or find a curcumin supplement that delivers around 500 miligrams daily.
The first step will be to infiltrate a solution made of epinephrin that will act as vasoconstrictor and lidocaine into the areas that will be treated. This will make the area tumescent (swollen). The epinephrine works, reducing the blood loss during the treatment hence dropping the risk of bruising. The next step will be to make the incisions and insert the cannulas linked to the vacuum device connected to a collection system; the cannula will be moved across the area to treat to remove the fat tissue, and no stitches are needed thanks to the incision size, these are only a few millimeters. Tylenol is indicated to manage the discomfort even if the anesthetic injected usually reduces the pain for the next 24 hours after the procedure. Ambulation is recommended as soon as possible to increase the recovery process, but exercise can be started one week after the procedure is done. Improvement will be noticeable in the new weeks, but the full result can take up to six months. A compression garment is worn usually 1-2 weeks following the procedure to aid in recovery.
Before you got your surgery, you almost certainly looked at a before, and after book to make an informed decision. Be sure to pass this favor on. Even if you feel uncomfortable about showing your body. This will help other people to make an informed decision about their own surgery. Rhinoplasty is a surgery that reshapes the nose. This surgery is just about the most common cosmetic surgery. The Seattle facial plastic surgeon makes the nose bigger or smaller or totally changes the shape of the bridge or the tip of the nose. It can correct an injury, a birth defect or a breathing problem. Equally as important is for your plastic surgeon to have great reviews, years of experience, before and after pictures that showcase his work, and patient testimonials. The consultation is your chance to find out if you and your cosmetic surgeon are the right fit. During the consultation, each doctor will go over your options in detail and answer any questions you may have about the breast augmentation process. We like to tell our patients to come with a list of questions written out. That way you can make sure you remember to cover all your concerns during the consultation.
While the surgery only took three hours, the weeks following the procedure were very painful. I couldn’t get out of bed by myself as I was so sore. Amazingly, within a few weeks of the operation I lost another 9kg by committing to healthy eating habits. Then, two months after my surgery I went back for a tummy tuck to remove the loose skin and lost another 4kg. Before the operation, I hated looking in the mirror, but now, as I saw my body begin to shrink before my eyes, I loved admiring myself in the mirror. With diet and exercise I continued to get smaller and I started to feel a lot better. Before I knew it, I was down to 70kg and fitting into a US size 10 dress. Waking up from surgery I’d never felt happier in my whole life.
This is the latest addition to my body care routine and while I wasn’t sure what to expect at first, it is such a good step to have. The body serum is a fragrance free, hyaluronic acid, daily hydration treatment for your skin after you shower. It’s super easy to apply, it’s a gel texture similar to your favorite hyaluronic moisturizer for your face. A couple of pumps and it melts into your skin. It does feel a little sticky after each application, but it’s not uncomfortable and it’s not a deal breaker for me. It’s been so important for me these days to actually pay attention to all that’s in my skincare and body care. Less is more for me. I should have started years ago, not that I had a horrible routine or anything, but it really makes a difference and when I think about housing and growing children and even what I’ll put on their skin, it’s nice to know there is a brand I can really trust to make clean products.
