A medical presenter walks through six common plastic surgery procedures: upper blepharoplasty for drooping eyelids, otoplasty to reshape ears, gynecomastia reduction for men, mommy makeovers, facelifts, and preservation rhinoplasty.
Hey, Dr. Barrett, surgeries explained. Yeah. Upper bleph. Uh, removes the extra eyelid skin. Otoplasty. Upper eyelid. Uh, otoplasty, uh, typically brings the ears in if they're prominent. If they stick out, brings it in. Male gynecomastia. Uh, reducing the glandular tissue of a male chest that's, that's too large. Not just fat, but glandular tissue. Mommy makeovers. Um, combination of everything that happens to a woman's body after having kids. So breast rejuvenation, tummy rejuvenation, and sometimes a buttock rejuvenation. Facelifts. Basically, you— proper facelift is you go underneath the skin and you tighten up all the muscles that sag with aging. Preservation rhinoplasty. A different way to do rhinoplasty that doesn't cause a lot of surface abnormalities. It goes deeper down. So think of like foundational work versus like, you know, resurfacing just the top.
