You can get rid of hardness after lipo with compression garments and massages as advised by your surgeon. Restring salty foods can reduce the swelling to a certain extent.it doesn't mean you stop taking salt completely. Avoid chips and pickles

Hardness after lipo can last for several months up to a year, and swelling stays for around 6-8 months as it is the procedure's outcome.
Lymphatic drainage massage helps to reduce swelling and hardness of your skin where liposuction has been performed.
How to perform this Massage:
you should always gently tug and stretch the skin without rubbing it.
Use only mild touches; and avoid deep tissue massage.
The Massage should be done in the direction of the lymphatic system's flow, i.e., from wrist to shoulder and from the ankle to knee.

The hardness after lipo is due to the fact that the fat cells have been removed and the skin has been tightened. The best way to get rid of the hardness is to have a massage or to use a body brush.

Lumps and bumps are normal after liposuction and will usually go away on their own. Lumps can feel hard for several weeks after a procedure, but eventually, they dissipate, and the skin returns to normal.
Your surgeon may suggest some massaging techniques to smoothen it or lessen it.
However, tak to your plastic surgeon regarding sustained hardness.

Non surgical rhinoplasty always kyu ni h 3 years k liye hi kyu h

Female | 21

Non-surgical rhinoplasty isn't permanent. It changes your nose's shape using fillers. But these only last 1-2 years. Because your body breaks them down slowly over time. If you want a lasting change, you may need surgical rhinoplasty instead. This involves actual reshaping through an operation. So while non-surgical is quick, it's not forever. Surgery gives permanent results but requires healing too.

When can i sleep on my back after bbl?

Female | 43

After a BBL, you should not sleep face down on your back for several weeks in order to avoid pressure on the newly transplanted fat. Surgeons usually advise to sleep on your side or use a donut pillow, which minimizes the pressure against buttocks during early recovery. Follow your surgeon’s specific post-operative instructions and individual recovery progress. It is important to follow your surgeon’s advice in order for you to get the desired result with minimal risks of complications.

Female | 53

It's common to have concerns about post-surgery changes with eye bag removal. The eyes may appear different initially. Feeling numb or odd sensations in one eye after 17 days is normal. This occurs due to swelling or nerve responses. Be patient as it will likely improve over time. However, if you have persistent worries, consult your plastic surgeon for guidance.

Can i get a nose job at 14?

Female | 14

It is usually not recommended to get nose job at 14. It is advisable to wait until you have got the physical maturity. Thus, most surgeons recommend having a rhinoplasty in your late teens or early 20s. But still I advise consulting a reputed plastic surgeon in person for proper evaluation and assessment of your individual condition.

Taping nose 6 months after rhinoplasty, is it required?

Female | 32

Taping the nose six months after rhinoplasty is not typically necessary, as the majority of the swelling and healing process should have already taken place by that point. However, it's important to consult with your surgeon for specific guidance based on your individual circumstances.

In the early stages of rhinoplasty recovery, taping may be used to help support and shape the nose. It is often applied immediately after surgery and worn for a specific period of time as directed by the surgeon. However, after six months, the nose should have largely settled into its final shape.

If you have concerns about the appearance or shape of your nose at the six-month mark, it's best to reach out to your surgeon for a follow-up consultation. They will be able to assess your progress, evaluate any residual swelling, and provide guidance on whether any further interventions, including taping, are necessary.

It's important to follow your surgeon's recommendations closely, as they will have a comprehensive understanding of your unique case and can provide the most appropriate advice for your specific situation.

What to eat before bbl surgery?

Male | 40

To perform before a Brazilian Butt Lift BBL, focus on a balanced diet that is loaded with fruits vegetables , lean proteins and whole grain products to improve overall health as well as recovery post-surgery. Hydrate yourself well by drinking lots of water in the days preceding the procedure. Use lean sources of protein because they are essential for tissue repair. Avoid foods that are heavy or greasy in the hours leading up to surgery so you do not feel unwell while under anesthesia. Stick to any fasting restrictions given by your plastic surgeon so that you can have a safe surgical procedure. Always check with your surgeon for specific dietary recommendations based on personal health and unique needs of the BBL surgery in question.

Is scalp micropigmentation permanent?

Female | 38

No scalp micropigmentation is a semi permanent technique which lasts for a few months. As the pigment is deposited on the upper layers of skin, with time this layer gets naturally removed. So the procedure needs to be repeated.
