Selfies and plastic surgery

There is a new trend in plastic surgery concerning selfies and the expectations of patients, especially the younger ones.

People used to bring photos in consultation, usually of celebrities, to show their plastic surgeon what they were looking for. Nowadays they show their modified, filtered selfies taken on social media and ask for a permanent solution.

The problem is that filters don’t represent reality. Filters change a face and its perception in an unrealistic manner that cannot be attained practically. Plastic surgery is real surgery with its limits and possibilities and people shouldn’t forget that before booking an operation. That is also the reason that some plastic surgeons don’t like the use of 3D simulation applications to show their patients what they will look like after surgery.

Be carefull when dealing with miracles and bargains in plastic surgery

I have recently heard about patients looking for some miracle improvement on their body and at an especially low price. Some of them visit plastic surgeons that come from abroad for a few days trying to sell these kind of treatments.

But dont forget that IT IS SURGERY we are talking about and even though they are rare ,complications can happen to anyone. It is not the wisest option to be treated by a surgeon from abroad that will leave Cyprus and will not be able to handle any problem.

Only a Cyprus Board Certified Plastic Surgeon working at a certified hospital can really offer you the results you are looking for in a safe environment using proven techniques and safety protocols.

AQUAFILLING: A new filler for buttock augmentation

Aesthetic buttock augmentation has been a new trend for past years. Plastic surgeons usually use silicone implants or fat transfers for these kind of demand.

But implants come with a high percentage of complications and pain and fat is not always present in a sufficient quantity

So a filler might be the best option most of the times. We now perform buttock augmentations using the AQUAFILLING gel which is an injectable filler for body augmentation. The procedure is very simple and performed under local anesthesia and the patient may return home immediately.

The result is immediate and lasts up to 5 years
