Losing weight is great for our health, helps to boost our confidence, and makes us feel more attractive, but it can also have a downside. When you lose weight, it can leave you with loose skin. Exercise can help, but sometime you need face or neck lift surgery to get rid of sagging skin.

How to Tackle Loose Skin After Weight Loss

If you can take the time to lose weight slowly, your body will have more time to adapt to the change. It can also help to be patient after you’ve reached your target weight, as sagging skin can grow tighter in time, particularly if it‘s youthful and elastic. You can help it along by keeping slim and using muscle-building exercises to tone your body.&nbsp;Try to avoid exercises that strain the platysma muscles that run from your chin down along your neck. Strengthening these muscles can make them stand out as neck bands. If you have loose skin around your neck, this can make it more obvious as it will create a wattle or “turkey neck”. If this happens, it can be corrected with neck lift surgery at a cosmetic clinic in the UK.

Take Your Time

Although it is possible to minimise the loose skin left behind after weight loss, it isn’t always possible to avoid the problem completely. If you have lost a lot of weight, if you were overweight for a long time, or if your skin lacks elasticity, you could still be left with some sagging skin. This can be particularly upsetting when it is around your face and neck, as it can be very ageing.&nbsp;Surgery is available in the UK to help to remove this excess skin to leave you with a smooth, taut surface. Different types of surgery can target the areas where you are affected. You might want to consider a tummy tuck, facelift, or neck lift surgery at a UK clinic.&nbsp;

<h2>Cosmetic Reasons for Rhinoplasty</h2>Reduction <a href="rhinoplasty-london">rhinoplasty</a> can remove cartilage and bone to reduce the size of the nose by:<ul><li>Smoothing out a bump on the bridge of the nose</li><li>Reducing the size of the tip or the nose as a whole</li><li>Narrowing the nose or making it look more balanced</li></ul>Augmentation rhinoplasty is less common in London, but it is popular with patients from certain ethnic backgrounds who have smaller, flatter noses. It involves reshaping the nose, often by adding bone or cartilage taken from elsewhere in the body.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Adding Bone or Cartilage may:</h2><ul><li>Build up the bridge of the nose</li><li>Enhance the tip to create a more balanced appearance</li><li>Increase the width or overall size of the nose</li></ul>Other kinds of rhinoplasty can help to reshape the nose, rather than to alter its size. The nose might be made more symmetrical or the angle between it at the upper lip may be altered.Whatever the reasons for having a cosmetic rhinoplasty, the procedure will always be tailored to each patient’s needs. The aim will usually be to achieve the desired effect in a way that fits and balances with the rest of the face. It is also usually important to preserve the patient's individuality along with their gender and ethnic identity.&nbsp;<h2>Correcting Deviated Noses</h2>Sometimes there are additional reasons for having rhinoplasty. Surgery can help to correct structural issues, including those caused by childhood or sports injuries. The surgery may be able to help with breathing problems or even to prevent snoring by repositioning the bones or cartilage.

Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in London, but the reasons for having this operation can vary.

Common Reasons for Having Rhinoplasty

A facelift can have a dramatic effect on your appearance, but the full facelift isn’t right for everyone. If all you need is a slight lift in a few parts of your face, a mini facelift at the London clinic might be a better option.

Is the Mini Facelift Right for You?

Although many people have a rhinoplasty for purely cosmetic reasons, your surgeon can also use the opportunity to clear any blockages or to correct a deviated septum.
