Butt Enhancement in Dubai | Dubai Plastic Surgery | LCAS

Brazilian Butt Lift

Buttocks augmentation is an excellent method to enhance the shape and contour of the buttocks.

A well-proportioned body structure includes buttocks that are shapely and proportionally aligned to the upper body. For women, a well-rounded and curvy buttock is something achievable with core training and surgical injection to the buttocks.

Butt Enlargement or BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) is an excellent method in enhancing the shape and contour of the buttocks through fat injection. It uses one’s fat; thus, serious side effects are virtually eliminated.

BBL consists of two methods: The collection and The Injection

THE FAT COLLECTION

Firstly, Dr Maurizio and Dr Roberto will collect the fat from an area in your body that has abundant of them, usually the tummy, love handles or thighs. It entails the introduction of tumescent fluid (a cocktail of fluid with anaesthesia) to the donor area.

They will then insert a blunt cannula, about 1-2 millimetres in circumference, and begin collecting the fat that eventually goes to a fat collection canister. This unique canister filters the fat from other impurities such as fluids and blood.

THE FAT INJECTION

Once they have collected enough fatty tissues, it is then filtered to remove excess fluids. Thus, the remaining tissues are what we call the “pure fat.”

The pure fat is what we inject to the buttocks to achieve augmentation. Small incisions are made along the crease of the buttocks, and once the incisions heal, they are not easily discernible by the naked eye.

Platelet-rich Plasma or Stem Cells

Also, Platelet-rich Plasma or Stem Cells may be added to the injected fat to improve fat tissue viability and result.

As we lose weight, we also tend to lose fat. Keeping a stable weight is vital following the fat injection to the buttocks.

Expected Result

During the first week, swelling is expected, which can last for 2-4 weeks. The result will be visible when the swelling has completely gone down at this time.

Forty to fifty per cent of fat will be absorbed initially. This is the reason why our surgeons will always inject more than the amount need. Likewise, multiple fat reinjections are needed to attain the best outlook that patients need to achieve their goal.

Here in Dubai, Butt Enhancement or Buttocks Augmentation is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Drs. Maurizio and Roberto Viel have over 25 years of experience in the field of cosmetic surgery industry and are known for their expertise in cosmetic treatments and surgeries.

MACS FACELIFT in Dubai
Dr. Roberto (left) and Dr. Maurizio Viel (right)

Q: Why MACS lift?

MACS (Minimal Access Cranial Suspension) Lift uses minimally invasive technique to lift the lower two-thirds of the face. Unlike traditional facelift that leaves patient with the “wind tunnel” look, MACS lift produces natural looking lift with a short scar.

Q: How is the MACS lift done?

Since it is minimally invasive, it is done under sedation – a type of anaesthesia that keeps patient asleep the entire procedure without the need for a General Anaesthesia. With sedation, patients are able to breathe normally and on their own with little assistance.

Q: What will I expect after the first week?

For the first couple of weeks, expect bruising and swelling around the face and neck areas. You will be required to wear a facial compression garment for the first week. This garment will help lessen swelling.

In addition, you will need to minimise facial movement especially around the mouth. Soft diet is recommended during this time period.

Q: When will the stitches be removed?

In general, stitches are removed 10 days after the surgery. By this time, the incisions have completely healed well.

Q: When will I see result?

On the first week, you will already see improvement in appearance, and will continue to improve more once the swelling has completely gone down.

Q: When is the best time to do a MACS lift?

MACS lift is ideal for both men and women in their mid-40s to late-50s experiencing mild loose skin on the lower two-thirds of the face and upper neck.

Here in Dubai, MACS FACELIFT is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

FAQ: VASER Liposuction – LCAS DUBAI

What is VASER Liposuction?

VASER Liposuction is an effective procedure to enhance the body contour. It uses ultrasonic technology to effectively emulsify fatty tissues for easy removal through suction.

Can Liposuction be done in men?

Yes! VASER liposuction is ideal for anyone who requires removal of excess fat, although it is not recommended for patients below 18 years old.

How is the Liposuction done?

The procedure is done as an outpatient surgery where patients can return home the same day. It is carried out under sedation and local anaesthesia.

What is Sedation?

Sedation is a type of anaesthesia where a cocktail of sedative medications and pain killers are introduced to the patient through an intravenous line (a line through the veins, usually in the hand or arm).

What is the difference between Sedation and General Anaesthesia?

The adverse effects associated with general anaesthesia is avoided with sedation. Similarly, patient undergoing sedation maintains physiological reflexes and are able to breathe on their own. In General Anaesthesia (GA), all reflexes are affected including spontaneous breathing. Thus, a breathing machine is necessarily during procedures under GA. The recovery with sedation is also faster compared to GA.

How long is the Liposuction procedure?

The length of the surgery will depend on the number of areas.

Here in Dubai, VASER Liposuction is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Liposuction Dubai | Best Plastic Surgeon | LCAS

liposcution in dubai — Liposuction in Dubai with Drs. Maurizio and Roberto Viel

If you are thinking of liposuction to remove stubborn fatty deposits, it is crucial to know the best possible option for you. Liposuction has been developed in the 1970s and has currently evolved in terms of patient safety and increase patient satisfaction.

The VASER is the latest among the liposuction technology. VASER liposuction uses ultrasonic sound waves to loosen and emulsify fatty tissues. Areas such as the tummy, love handles, arms and thighs are prone to localised fatty deposits even with the strictest diet and exercise regimen.

Italian twin plastic surgeons, Dr Roberto and Dr Maurizio Viel, discuss some important details on liposuction.

What is VASER Liposuction?

VASER liposuction is a special ultrasonic technology which emulsifies fatty tissues for easy removal through suction cannulae.

What is Traditional liposuction?

Traditional liposuction or the so-called “suction-assisted liposuction” or SAL is done by introducing a suction cannulae under the skin. This cannulae breaks down the fat tissues and suctions them out.

What are the advantages of VASER than traditional?

Bleeding in VASER liposuction is less since the ultrasonic technology specifically targets fat cells and keeping the other tissues like the blood vessels or nerves intact. With less bleeding, there is less bruising and pain.

How is VASER liposuction done?

VASER Liposuction is carried out in our Dubai Healthcare City clinic under sedation. Unlike general anaesthesia, patients undergoing a procedure with sedation can go back to their home the same day to recover. However, you need to arrange for someone to fetch you from the clinic and drive you since you are not allowed to drive for 2 days.

How long is the VASER Liposuction?

It depends on the number of areas, but generally, one hour per area.

How is the recovery with VASER liposuction?

As with all surgery, liposuction carries some risks and complications. The most common is pain, discomfort, bruises and swelling. The first week is the most crucial as the body starts to heal. A compression garment is worn at all times for the first week to minimise swelling and avoid complication.

Some rare complications are fluid collection and infection. Small fluid collection, especially on the abdomen is not a great concern. The body will eventually absorb the fluid and heal. However, for large fluids, aspiration of the fluid may be necessary. Likewise, an infection can be avoided by taking the antibiotics prescribed following the surgery.

Here in Dubai, VASER LIPOSUCTION is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Eyelid Surgery in Dubai | The Blepharoplasty Experience | LCAS

Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that is often performed to treat droopy eyelids and eyebags. It surgically removes the excess skin and fat, thus, achieving a more youthful appearance.

What causes droopy eyelids?

Various conditions can cause eyelids to droop, a condition known as ptosis. The most common cause is ageing. The skin around the eyes is more prone to looseness since it is naturally thinner than most skin structures on the body. As we reach past the age of 30, collagen production slows down. Collagen is naturally produced by the body and is responsible for skin elasticity. Collagen loss results in the gradual appearance of wrinkles and lines.

Although blepharoplasty is a common procedure done to restore a more youthful appearance, there are certain situations in which eyelid surgery is medically necessary. Time, as well as gravity, can add up to how droopy the eyelids can be. In some cases, the excess skin can physically obscure the field of vision. Through eyelid surgery, vision can be restored by the removal of the excess skin that drapes over the eyes.

The Blepharoplasty Experience

Blepharoplasty is carried out under sedation with local anaesthesia. Thus, patients undergoing this type of anaesthesia can go home the same day. Recovery with sedation is faster compared to general anaesthesia.

After the surgery, a small strip of dressing is applied on the incisions. Minimal oozing of blood may be evident until the first 24 hours. Intermittent application of ice pack and lying with the head elevated can decrease the risk of bleeding. If bleeding persists, the doctor should be informed.

Length of the Surgery

The surgery typically lasts from 1.5 to 2 hours. Patients need to recover a minimum of 2-3 hours at the clinic before they can go home.

Here in Dubai, Eyelid Surgery is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Breast Enlargement in Dubai | Breast Augmentation – LCAS

Breast Enlargement or Breast Augmentation is a surgical aesthetic surgery that enhances the size, shape and volume of the breasts through breast implants.

Breast implants have gained popularity during the 1960s in augmenting the breasts. Currently, there are different types of implants, but the most common is the cohesive silicone-gel implants which is also known as the “gummy bear” implants.

Cohesive gel implants have the advantage of retaining their form while providing natural breast shape, lessening the risk of rippling and providing a greater degree of safety in cases the implants lose its integrity. Unlike previous implants that “bleeds” out of the capsule when ruptured; cohesive gel implants retain inside the shell and does not circulate in the body.

In our Dubai Healthcare City clinic, Drs Roberto and Maurizio Viel use the highest quality breast implants. During your consultation, a 3D scan of the breasts is captured and the possible implant type and size are inserted virtually to give you an idea on how your breasts will look.

The Procedure and The Recovery

Breast augmentation surgery is relatively short – around 1.5 to 2 hours at most. The surgery is carried out as a day procedure under sedation. Patients under sedation recover a minimum of a couple of hours at the clinic and are able to go home the same day. Patients are advised to have someone pick them up at the clinic and stay with them for the next couple of days.

A bandage is wrapped around the breasts and is removed after three to four days. Once the bandage is removed, a support bra is worn for another 3 weeks. During this time, the breasts are somehow looking pointy and up. However, once the swelling has gone down, the breasts will gradually take its natural form and will settle down.

Also, caring for the breasts during the first month is critical. Avoid lifting heavy objects and stretching your arms higher than your shoulder length to minimise trauma to the stitches.

Follow-up Appointments

During the first month, you will be asked to come regularly at the clinic. Stitches are removed after the second week. You will be asked to come back on the first, second and third month following your surgery to see your progress.

Here in Dubai, Breast Enlargement using Implants is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

VASER Liposuction | FAQs | Dubai | London | LCAS

Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic procedure in the world, whereas the VASER liposuction is the most advanced technology for liposuction. The following are the most frequently asked questions about VASER liposuction.

What is VASER liposuction?

VASER liposuction uses ultrasonic technology to target fat tissues specifically. This technology spares adjacent structures such as blood vessels and nerves.

How is it done?

VASER liposuction is done as a day surgery case where patients can go back home after spending a few hours recuperating at the clinic.

How long is the liposuction?

The time for liposuction will depend on the number of areas to be done. But generally, an hour to an hour and a half per major area like a tummy or the back.

How is the recovery after liposuction?

The recovery after liposuction is pretty well-tolerated by most of our patients. The first two to three days are the most painful; however, the pain can be managed by pain medications.

A compression garment is worn immediately after the surgery and worn for a month. This garment will help with the swelling and maintain the shape after liposuction.

When will I see results?

Not immediate but you will see improvements in your shape once the swelling has slowly gone down. You may also experience minimal weight gain due to the swelling. Do not be alarmed as this will go away in due course.

Can liposuction be combined with other procedures?

Currently, VASER can be combined with J-plasma machine. J-plasma uses plasma from helium to help with skin tightening.

Here in Dubai, VASER Liposuction is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Male Breast Reduction | Best Cosmetic Surgeons in Dubai | LCAS

Male breast reduction is an effective procedure to reduce and reshape the breasts in males who experience gynecomastia (a condition in males where the breasts are abnormally enlarged). Gynecomastia is more common in teenage boys and older men. Also, it can cause chronic psychological stress to the individual, resulting in low self-esteem.

Fat tissues and excess skin are removed to recontour the breasts to achieve more masculine breasts.

The Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidates are male adults whose gynaecomastia condition has persisted over time. Those who have realistic expectations about what male breast surgery can achieve. Those who smoke are asked to stop smoking two weeks before until two weeks after the surgery.

How is Male Breast Reduction done?

Male breast reduction is the removal of excess fat, surgically and through a liposuction procedure – reshaping the breasts to a more masculine appearance.

The procedure is done under local anaesthesia with light sedation. Light sedation is a type of anaesthesia that keeps the patient in a deep sleep and pain-free procedure. The recovery with light sedation is much faster compared to general anaesthesia. Therefore, light sedation can be done as an out-patient day surgery where patients can go home the same day.

How is the recovery period?

Our patients pretty well tolerate male breast reduction. You may start to feel slight discomfort a few hours after the surgery (when the local anaesthesia wears off) until two days. This discomfort may be on and off, make sure to take the pain relievers as prescribed.

What happens after the surgery?

After the surgery, a compression garment is worn on top of the dressings. These dressings will be changed when you come for follow-up.

What are the signs you need to look out?

Oozing of blood from the dressing is normal. However, profuse bleeding that persists even after interventions (putting pressure or placing ice pack) is a concern. Call the office and make an appointment to see the surgeon at the earliest.

Just like with any surgery, swelling is expected. Bruising, which can vary from person to person, is also expected.

Around one week after your surgery, you may feel hard lumps on the breasts. These lumps are nothing to worry about and eventually soften after a few sessions of Endermologie massage.

Will the gynaecomastia return?

Yes, it can happen. Patients need to avoid medications that may increase breast size. They also need to maintain a stable weight following the surgery.

Here in Dubai, Male Breast Reduction is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Liposuction in Dubai | Liposuction 101 | Dr Maurizio and Roberto Viel | Dubai | LCAS

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess fat on areas of the body such as the tummy, back, flanks, thighs, neck and a lot more.

VASER liposuction is a modern technological advancement that specifically targets fat cells and leaving other tissues like blood vessels and nerves intact. Because of its specific target on fat cells, there is less bleeding.

Liposuction and Anaesthesia

VASER liposuction can be done under local anaesthesia with light sedation. This is not to be confused with general anaesthesia. Sedation provides relaxing anaesthesia where patients are in deep sleep and feels no pain. The recovery with sedation is also faster than general anaesthesia. Patients can go home the same day after two to three hours of recovery at the clinic.

What to expect after Liposuction

After the operation, a compression garment is worn for a month. This helps minimise swelling and keeps the targeted areas in position.

The extent of bruising and swelling varies from patient to patient. However, these will lessen and fade after a few weeks. Patients can return to their normal activities in a couple of weeks. Making sure that the compression garment is worn half of the day.

Sometimes, a collection of fluid known as seroma can occur. If the seroma is small, the body will eventually absorb them. However, if the seroma persists and gets bigger, aspiration may be necessary. Aspiration involves piercing a tiny hole and aspirating the seroma using a syringe. This may require multiple treatments until the seroma is managed.

RESULT

You may already see the result by the time the swelling has gone down, in a month. However, the final result will take around six months.

VASER liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure nor treats obesity. It is a body contouring procedure with the aim of removing stubborn fat that does not respond to exercise or diet. It is also important that in order to maintain the result, a healthy diet and lifestyle should go hand in hand after liposuction.

Here in Dubai, VASER Liposuction is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Rejuvenate with a Facelift! | Dubai | Best Cosmetic Surgeon

MACS (Minimal Access Cranial Suspension) lift is a minimally-invasive facelift technique which gives a natural effect, unlike traditional facelift techniques which leaves a wind-blown appearance because of too much tension and pulling.

As we age, facial laxity increases, facial lines appear and the skin texture dulls. A MACS facelift is a subtle way of lifting most especially the lower two-thirds of the face. Moreover, it lessens the appearance of the lines around the mouth and rejuvenates the overall look.

THE PROCEDURE

A MACS facelift is carried as a day surgery procedure under local anaesthesia with sedation, a type of anaesthesia where patients are in deep sleep and the recovery is faster than general anaesthesia. The procedure will take around 3.5 to 4 hours, depending on if additional procedures like eyelid surgery or laser resurfacing or liposuction to other areas are included at the same time.

Immediately after the facelift, a support compression garment is applied around the face. This is worn for a week to minimise swelling.

On the first day after the surgery, continue with the application of ice packs intermittently. There may be oozing of blood on the scars which is normal. Make sure to place a pillow or two on the head when lying down. Also, you may already feel discomfort by the second-day post-surgery, be sure to take pain relievers and antibiotics as instructed.

SIDE EFFECTS

The most common side effects are swelling and bruising. The swelling is most prominent around the cheeks, eyes and neck.

RESULTS

During the first month, the scars will be red and bumpy; it will flatten and will not be noticeable after a few months. Make sure not to scratch them. The extent of the recovery period is dependent on individual health status and age. However, you may see improvements by the end of two weeks to a month, when the swelling has gone down.

Here in Dubai, MACS FACELIFT is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Tips for Preparing a Tummy Tuck Procedure | Abdominoplasty with Dr Maurizio Viel | Dubai – LCAS

TUMMY TUCK DUBAI. A tummy tuck is a great option for people who have loose skin and excess fat that does not lessen despite rigorous exercise and strict diet regimen.

A tummy tuck involves a permanent scar from hip bone to hip bone. Usually, a tummy tuck will last from three and a half to four (3.5 to 4) hours and can be done as a day surgery procedure under sedation. During sedation patients have faster recovery from the anaesthesia compared to general anaesthesia, therefore, those who undergo procedures under sedation can go home the same day.

A great number of techniques have been published and planning a tummy tuck surgery is fundamentally important for effective results.

CONSULTATION WITH A BOARD-CERTIFIED PLASTIC SURGEON

Firstly, a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is necessary. A surgeon who has extensive experience and proven patient results may be able to advise on which possible approach is best suited. A discussion of the patient’s expectations, limitations of the surgery and the patient’s overall health are paramount detail to achieve a successful outcome.

PRE AND POST SURGERY CARE

Secondly, before and after preparation for the surgery are critical factors. Before proceeding with any type of surgery, laboratory test and pre-anaesthesia check and evaluation are necessary. Fasting is also required for the surgery. An antiseptic brush will be given for you to use on the night before the operation and in the morning of the surgery day. The antiseptic brush is prophylaxis for possible infection.

After the tummy tuck procedure, abdominal drains are attached and a compression garment is worn. The drains help minimise swelling by draining excess fluids that accumulate as a result of the surgery. The compression garment also lessens the swelling.

On the first couple of days after the operation, it is best to have someone help you at home. Mild to moderate pain and discomfort may be felt and can be managed by taking the prescribed pain medication.

Follow up appointments are crucial as these determine the overall progress.

COMPLICATIONS

Although complications may arise, these are usually minor and are self-limiting and usually improve after a few days or weeks. Some of the most common complications are swelling, bruising, accumulation of fluid (seroma), and numbness or under-sensitive of the surgical area.

At first, the scars will look a bit bumpy and elevated but will eventually flatten and lighten.

The tummy tuck is an effective body contouring technique for a flatter tummy, however, preparations are important for a successful surgery.

Breast Augmentation Dubai | LCAS | Dr Maurizio and Roberto Viel

BREAST AUGMENTATION DUBAI. Breast implants have been used for enhancement since the late 1970s. However, the implants that were used were shown to have adverse effects and major complications such as leaking and rupture tendency for the implants. Today, breast implants have been tested to last longer and are better and more advanced in terms of safety when compared to previously used implants from decades before.

THE SURGERY

The breast augmentation surgery is carried out under sedation as an out-patient surgery. This means that patients are not aware of their surroundings during the surgery and are also pain-free. Moreover, with sedation, patients recover faster compared with general anaesthesia and can also go home the same day. The surgery will usually take around half an hour to a couple of hours. After the surgery, patients are closely monitored before they are deemed safe to go home.

AFTER THE SURGERY

A dressing is placed around to support the new breasts, which is then removed after three or four days. It is also important to wear a non-wired cotton bra for one month. During the first few days after the surgery, the breasts will look pointy and swollen. This is a normal occurrence and will resolve after a few weeks. Most of the time, the new breasts will also look a bit high. This is also expected and the will eventually settle down to their normal position after a few weeks.

The scars which are located underneath the breast folds will be a little bit bumpy during the first few weeks and will eventually flatten after a few months.

Here in Dubai, Breast Augmentation is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located in Dubai Healthcare City.

Restore your tummy with a Tummy Tuck | Dr Maurizio Viel | Dubai | London | LCAS

TUMMY TUCK DUBAI

Bulging tummy. Loose tummy. These all happens as a result of pregnancy or significant weight loss. Furthermore, wearing a bikini can sometimes be a daunting issue and can affect one’s self-esteem.

A tummy tuck is a type of operation that removes these loose, bulging tummy through surgical removal of excess fat and skin. With a tummy tuck operation, it is important to note that a long surgical scar is expected and the recovery time is longer compared to some aesthetic operations like breast augmentation.

The tummy tuck surgery can be done in our Dubai Healthcare City Day Surgery Clinic under intravenous sedation, a type of anaesthesia that involves a cocktail of sedative medications and pain killers given through a vein. Sedation, when compared to general anaesthesia, involves fast recovery and can be done as a day case surgery. With tummy tuck under sedation, it does not necessarily require an overnight stay at the clinic.

The entire surgery will typically last from 3.5 to 4 hours. A compression garment will be worn immediately after the operation and may also involve the attachment of a couple of drains. These drains will help with the swelling by draining excess fluids. Usually, the drains are kept for a day or two until the drained fluids are less likely to cause any complications like seroma (the accumulation of fluid within the surrounding tissues.

During the first couple of weeks, it is crucial to be careful when moving or doing chores. Some individuals are moving up and about after the first week. Although this may seem so, it is still important to take everything at minimal until the first month.

The first couple of weeks, you may already feel tightness on the tummy as a result of the stitches made on the muscles. This helps achieve a flatter tummy and involves suturing the muscles together.

A full tummy tuck surgery involves transposition of the belly button. Moreover, a scar is expected on the same place as the previously positioned navel; while a mini tummy tuck only involves a horizontal scar along the bikini line.

A tummy tuck has been proven as an efficient operation in achieving a flatter tummy however, certain issues such as long recovery, permanent scars, must be considered.
