Fear of surgery and concerns about recovery times have resulted in searches for non-surgical solutions. Although they do not take up as much space as surgeries in the practice of Plastic Surgery, various innovations are emerging every day.
Today, the most common non-surgical solution options are PRP (Platelet-rich plasma) and botulinum toxin (Botox). PRP is the concentrated form of the cells called platelets in our blood in a small amount of plasma. The alpha granules in these cells contain growth-accelerating substances. PRP applications are one of the solution options for problems such as facial rejuvenation, wound healing, hair loss, and joint pain.
Botulinum toxin applications are another option that works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles with a type of poison produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacteria. It can show a healing effect for 3-12 months, especially when used to correct superficial wrinkles around the eyes, forehead, and lips.
Fillers are another treatment method that can be used to prevent tissue loss in the aging face and to eliminate structural problems. These substances can be used to thicken the cheeks and lips, as well as to highlight the forehead and cheekbones. Fillers melt and disappear within 6 to 12 months, depending on their content.
One of the options that can be used instead of fillers is fat graft applications, where fat cells taken from the person's own body are subjected to a series of processes and injected into the desired areas of the body. The advantage over fillers is that it is natural, not synthetic, and can be permanent in the body despite some resorption.
