Extraction of Biopolymer
Safe Path to a Natural Appearance
Why remove biopolymer?
Biopolymers, also known as liquid silicones, are non-biodegradable and can cause numerous problems, including deformities, swelling, pain, inflammation, and even tissue necrosis. Our procedure for removing biopolymers reduces lip volume, eliminates lumps and deformities, restoring a more natural appearance and texture to the lips.
Preparation and procedure
Preparation for biopolymer removal
Preparation for biopolymer removal involves a thorough examination and laboratory tests, which are included in the cost of the surgery. It’s necessary to avoid certain medications and quit smoking to ensure optimal recovery.
Procedure for biopolymer removal
The operation is performed under local anesthesia or short-term intravenous sedation. Incisions are discreetly placed to ensure scars are minimally visible, through which scar tissue and biopolymers are removed. The procedure lasts from 45 to 90 minutes, and biodegradable sutures are used, facilitating easier postoperative recovery.
Recovery after biopolymer removal
Recovery involves temporary swelling and taking antibiotics. Dietary recommendations and oral hygiene focus on minimizing infection risks. Most patients can resume their normal activities the next day, with their first follow-up appointment scheduled for the second day after surgery.
What are the risks of biopolymer removal
As with any surgery, there are risks of allergic reactions to anesthesia, bleeding, and infection. However, these risks are minimized when the procedure is performed in a completely sterile operating room and conducted strictly according to protocol by an experienced surgeon.
