Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon Dr. Vishal Kapoor let's you know what to expect when considering Plastic Surgery

Candidates for lip augmentation include individuals who would like to enhance the lip appearance. For those not ready to commit to permanent augmentation, an injectable filler providing temporary results may offer the ideal solution. Patients considering enhancement with collagen will need to undergo allergy testing prior to treatment. An initial consultation with Dr. Kapoor in his Beverly Hills office will help to determine if lip augmentation is right for you and which technique may best address your needs.

After the surgery is complete, a bandage may be loosely applied to the head and a drainage tube may be placed under the skin behind the ear. The drainage tube will be removed within one to two days after surgery, and the bandage within one to five days. The face is likely to appear pale, bruised and puffy at first, and the skin may feel tender and numb. The numbness should fade within several weeks to months, while the bruising should subside within about two to three weeks. Keeping the head elevated as much as possible during the first few days after surgery will help to alleviate the swelling. Patients may experience minor discomfort which can be controlled with prescribed pain medication. Patients should plan on taking it easy for the first week.

For patients in their late 30’s to early 40’s, a mini face lift is an appropriate treatment that will address sagging of the cheek and along the jawline. This usually involves a small incision along the front of the ear, through which the cheek and sagging tissue are lifted. This procedure takes approximately 1 and a half hours and is performed under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation or general anesthesia if preferred.
For patients in their 40’s to early 50’s, a Los Angeles Micro Face Lift will correct sagging of the cheek, the jawline and neck. This usually involves a small incision along the front of the ear that into groove behind the ear, through which the cheek, jawline and neck tissues are lifted. A micro lift provides the same benefits of a full facelift, but with smaller incisions and shorter recovery period. This procedure takes approximately 3 hours and is performed under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation or general anesthesia if preferred.

Candidates for Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty include men and women who are looking to improve the appearance and/or function of the nose. It’s also important that patients have realistic expectations since perfection is not always possible. Los Angeles Nose Surgery can be particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from a deviated septum, birth defect or injury to the nose. An initial consultation with Dr. Kapoor in his Beverly Hills office will help to determine if Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty is right for you.

Candidates for liposuction surgery include physically healthy men and women who are of normal body weight but have stubborn areas of excess fat. Common areas for improvement include the chin, cheeks, neck, upper arms, breasts, abdomen, the flanks or “love handles”, buttocks, hips or “saddlebags”, thighs, knees, calves, and ankles. The best results tend to be achieved on patients with elastic skin. Liposuction surgery is not recommended for individuals with certain health conditions such as diabetes, heart or lung disease, or poor circulation. An initial consultation with Dr. Kapoor in his Beverly Hills office will help to determine if liposuction surgery is right for you.
