There are other double lumen implants that have silicone gel in the inner compartment and saline in the outer. What extent breast can be enlarged? Though there are limitations with regards to the extent the breast can be enlarged, most patients’ wishes and desires can be usually fulfilled. It is limited by the amount of skin available. Is there any side effect of breast augmentation surgery? As the implants are placed behind the breast tissue and the muscles, there are usually no problems in breast examination after enlargement. Also, there are no problems in breast feeding after this surgery. To-date, there is no recorded evidence of increased risk of breast cancer after silicone implant surgery. What about Surgical procedure? This surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The surgery takes approximately 2 to 3 hours. The patient usually goes home the same day or another day. An incision (cut), approximately two inch long is made just above the lower breast fold. A cavity is created behind the breast area/muscles. A satisfactory size implant is placed in the cavity and wounds are sutured in many layers. A snug dressing is applied and left in place for 5 to 6 days. The stitches are absorbable and no need of stitch removal. If there is excessive sagging of the breasts, breast tightening with uplift (mastopexy) could be done at the same time as breast enlargement. What happen after the surgery? There may be some discomfort during the first few days post-operatively. This will be similar to a muscle pain after strenuous physical activity. What is Post Operative Protocol? Wear a support bra for about 6 weeks until the swelling and bruising subsides. Avoid any straining, bending and lifting for a minimum of four weeks following the surgery. The scars from the incision will disappear over time. Women often return to non strenuous activity within two to three weeks of surgery and start returning slowly to their normal routine after four weeks of surgery.

Female genital rejuvenation procedures are mainly aimed for reshaping or reducing the external appearance of the vagina. It can boost self-esteem and enhance sexual life. Various factors contribute to your femininity, confidence and sexual life but one of the most important things is your private part, which is appearance of your genitalia. Why do you need labioplasty? In women asymmetric, large, or irregular genital labia (lips) can occur naturally or it may develop with age, childbirth, hormones, or even from sexual intercourse. In most women, the labia minora (inner genital "lips") are seen only when the legs are kept apart, however in some women, large labia minora are visible even when the legs are not separated, causing discomfort, embarrassment, self-consciousness, and distances in relationships. Enlarged labia may also be noticeable in tightly fitting clothes, and might cause discomfort during intercourse or bicycle riding. For these reasons, many women with asymmetric or large labia choose to make the labia smaller, more defined, and/or more symmetric through a procedure known as Labioplasty or labia majora/ minora reduction. How long the labioplasty surgery takes? Usually, this procedure takes between 1 to 2hours and is performed with local / regional anaesthesia. Some patients prefer even general anaesthesia. Do I need hospitalization? It can be done as day care procedure but sometimes a day stay can be offered if General anaesthesia is given. How is the postoperative period recovery? There will be mild swelling and discomfort that will settle in 1-2 weeks time. Oral medications will be prescribed for the same. The sutures will be absorbable so need to give further pain for stitch removal. The final result will be appreciated in around 2 months’ time once the oedema disappear completely. What are the complications of labioplasty? As these areas are more prone for infection, so patient are advised to maintain hygiene and cleaning of part regularly. This is a minor procedure and like any other wound there is slight chance of bleeding, infection.

Periorbital Rejuvination Periorbital rejuvenation is one of the most important areas of rejuvenation of the aging face these days.

Diabetes may cause your nerve damage that takes away the feeling in your feet. Diabetes may also reduce blood flow to the feet, making it harder to heal an injury or resist infection. Because of these problems, you may not notice a foreign object in your shoe. As a result, you could develop a blister or a sore. This could lead to an infection or a non-healing wound that could put your health at risk for an amputation. To avoid serious foot problems that could result in losing a toe, foot or leg, follow these guidelines. Inspect your feet daily. Check for cuts, blisters, redness, swelling, and nail problems. Use a magnifying hand mirror to look at the bottom of your feet. Call doctor if you notice anything. Bathe feet in lukewarm, never hot water. Keep your feet clean by washing them daily. Use only lukewarm water the temperature you would use on a newborn baby. Be gentle when bathing your feet. Wash them using a soft washcloth or even sponge you can use. Dry by blotting or patting and carefully dry between the toes. Moisturize your feet. Use a moisturizer daily to keep dry skin from itching or cracking. Cut nails carefully. Cut them straight across and file the edges. Don't cut nails too short, as this could lead to ingrown toenails. If you have concerns about your nails, consult your doctor. Wear clean, dry socks. Change them daily. Consider socks made specifically for patients living with diabetes. These socks have extra cushioning, do not have elastic tops, are higher than the ankle and are made from fibers that wick moisture away from the skin. Wear socks to bed. If your feet get cold at night, wear socks. Never use a heating pad or a hot water bottle. Ulcer Treatment People with diabetes develop foot ulcers because of neuropathy (sensory, motor, and autonomic deficits), ischaemia, or both. The initiating injury may be from acute mechanical or thermal trauma or from repetitively or continuously applied mechanical stress. Patients with clinically significant limb ischaemia should be assessed by a vascular surgeon to determine the need for angioplasty, stenting, or femorodistal bypass. When infection complicates a foot ulcer, the combination can be limb or life-threatening. Infection is defined clinically, but wound cultures reveal the causative pathogens. Tissue specimens are strongly preferred to wound swabs for wound cultures. Antimicrobial therapy should be guided by culture results, and should aim to cure the infection, not to heal the wound. Alleviation of the mechanical load on ulcers (off-loading) should always be a part of treatment. Neuropathic ulcers typically heal in 6 weeks with total contact casting, because it effectively relieves pressure at the ulcer site and enforces patient compliance. The success of other approaches to off-loading similarly depends on the patients' adherence to the effectiveness of pressure relief. Surgery to heal ulcers and prevent recurrence can include tenotomy, tendon lengthening, reconstruction, or removal of bony prominences. However, these procedures may give some complicated results like- secondary ulceration and other complications. Ulcer recurrence rates are high, but appropriate education for patients, the provision of posthealing footwear, and regular foot care can reduce rates of re-ulceration.

What is polydactyly? Polydactyly is a deformity in which the hand has one or more extra fingers in any of three places of the hand: on the small finger side most common (ulnar) on the thumb side, also called thumb duplication less common (radial) in the middle of the hand least common (central) What are the different forms of polydactyly? skin and soft tissue the simplest to remove skin, soft tissue and bone but no joint more challenging to remove/remodel skin, soft tissue and bone with joint (closer to a fully-formed finger most challenging to remove/remodel) Is this is a hereditary problem? Yes but some time it present non hereditary. What causes polydactyly? During normal embryonic development (while the baby is still in the womb), the hand initially forms in the shape of a paddle, and then at about the sixth or seventh week of gestation splits into separate fingers. Polydactyly results if there's an irregularity in this process: An extra finger forms when a single finger splits in two. How is polydactyly diagnosed? Polydactyly can be seen by ultrasound prenatally, and after birth by clinical examination. How is polydactyly treated, and at what age? The extra finger can be removed surgically, when the child is between 1 and 2 years old, young enough that he won't miss developmental milestones such as grasping (prehension), but late enough that he can tolerate anesthesia and surgery well. What are the Complications of surgery? Major complications after surgery are rare but often minor like scar formation, stiffness, instability, and late deformity. Most cosmetic or functional deformities can be addressed in later corrective surgery. What is the outcome of polydactyly surgery? Most of the young patients have full hand function and an improved appearance of the hand. It is possible that in a severe case, may need additional reconstructive surgery to recover full function and improve the hand's appearance.
