Butt Implants: A Detailed Look
Butt implants are silicone implants surgically inserted into the buttocks to increase volume and projection. Similar to breast implants, they come in various shapes and sizes. The procedure typically involves an incision in the gluteal cleft.
Understanding and Managing Itchiness After Plastic Surgery
Recovering from plastic surgery is exciting, but post-operative itchiness can be an unexpected and uncomfortable side effect. This comprehensive guide, crafted with expert insights, explains why this itching occurs, how long it lasts, and, most importantly, provides effective relief strategies.
Why Does Post-Op Itch Occur?
After procedures like rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, or Brazilian butt lifts (BBL), your body undergoes significant changes. Many procedures involve fat transfer, which requires time for the transferred fat to stabilize and establish a new blood supply. This "fluffing phase" can cause tingling or itching as new blood vessels form. Scar healing, another natural process, can also contribute to itchiness. Inflammation, a common post-surgical response, releases histamines, further exacerbating the itch.
