Yesterday, I took you to a journey to the plastic surgery department at West China Hospital.
Then I received messages like these:
"What I’m concerned about is whether I can feel any pain in the surgery."
"Can you tell me how they perform surgery on XX?"
“How long does it take for a nose/eyes surgery?”
“Is there a hidden danger?”
To answer your questions,
I took them to the plastic surgery professor one by one!
• Before surgery: Complete sterilization!
Does the doctor wash everything before the surgery, as is shown on TV?
Before the surgery, different sterilization is performed. Surgical instruments, doctor's own sterilization, aseptic condition of the surgery room... all surgical supplies involved need to be sterilized.
In cosmetic plastic surgery, do I have to get undressed of my own clothes, wear the surgery clothes, as in other surgeries we know?
It depends. It is required in such cases as nose infilling from rib substance. But most surgeries are all minimally invasive, so do not be too nervous.
• In surgery: Repeated confirmation for perfection
Doctor, in this surgery... rib infilling nose, will I feel any pain? How do you fill it?
Anesthesia is performed on the patient, who will not feel much pain.
Step1: Upon careful preparation, about 3 cm rib will be taken out from the patient. It will be it is necessary to carefully take the ribs of the operator, and then take the removed ribs on a sterilized table where it accurately polished them into the most suitable shape for the nose of the patient.
Step2: After the rib is shaped, cut the interval separating the left and right nostrils from the middle, and then gently peel off it like a mushroom, and place the carefully shaped rib in the interval.
The surgery itself is not complicated, but it involves the removal and insertion of the patient's own nasal tissue, so it requires extremely high precision. It will not be stitched until repeated confirmation for perfection.
• After surgery: Repeated advice like a mama.
What else is needed after surgery?
After confirming the satisfaction, we will sew up the cut and immediately take a post-surgery photo for comparison before the surgery, after surgery, and in recovery. The medical staff will be reminded of post-surgery attention, and then the anesthesiologist will come to wake up the patient. That's the end of a surgeon’s job.
Is the wound left by this surgery is very visible? Will there be any scar?
The cut at the rib removal is about 1.5 cm long with small outer wound, because the wound is mainly inside. This is also in line with the advantage of cosmetic plastic surgery. After a satisfactory surgery, there is no sign of cut or sewing up.
