In total, the specialist dispelled four myths.
Reconstructive plastic surgeon Sofia Kazaryan dispelled several popular myths about plastic surgery .
In an interview with Lenta.ru, the specialist refuted the belief that liposuction helps get rid of cellulite, noting that cellulite is a disease of subcutaneous fatty tissue, and liposuction only eliminates fat traps.
Kazarian also dispelled the myth that plastic surgery is only performed by older people. She emphasized that each patient has individual indications, and some types of operations, such as rhinoplasty and mammoplasty, are performed even at the age of 18.
“If the patient is dissatisfied with several parts of the body, the plastic surgeon divides the operations into stages. After achieving the desired result, the patient should leave satisfied,” noted Kazaryan.
Another common misconception is that plastic surgery cannot be done in the summer. Kazarian explained that in the summer, compression garments can be worn under light clothing, which is even more comfortable than in the winter, when compression garments are added to layered clothing, increasing the likelihood of sweating.
The surgeon also debunked the myth that breast implants can explode in aircraft or due to pressure changes. She assured that if implants are installed correctly, patients involved in extreme sports will not have any problems.
In conclusion, Kazaryan debunked the claim that it is impossible to breastfeed after mammoplasty. She explained that the implant is installed under the pectoralis major muscle: the mammary gland does not come into contact with it, which allows patients to continue breastfeeding.
