One of the most widespread false myths about cosmetic surgery is that which sees summer as a season
not recommended for anyone wishing to undergo aesthetic surgery.
The truth is that there is no scientific evidence regarding the contraindication of this type of surgery
aesthetic in summer.
Rather, some practical measures remain unchanged which we will see later and which will be worth it
take into consideration if you decide to choose summer as the time to treat yourself to a
new, more beautiful and toned body.
Many patients prefer this season because it is a time when they can count on holidays
working. This definitely helps planning a surgery taking into account
also of the post-operative course.
Despite the higher temperatures and more humid climate, in summer it is always possible to access the
cosmetic surgery.
And even if these interventions allow for rather free planning over time, it is worth it
show off the look you have always wanted, especially in view of the holidays!
Cosmetic surgery in summer: facial procedures
Almost all cosmetic procedures involving the face can be performed without it
problems throughout the year.
Even in summer, therefore, green light for otoplasty, ear improvement surgery, etc
to nose rhinoplasty.
Apart from these, filler and botox can be performed without any particular problems.
Their peculiar filling and reshaping action on facial features will allow you to obtain a
more uniform complexion, as long as you wait a few weeks before exposing yourself to the sun.
The interventions to which we should pay more attention are those aimed at rejuvenation
of the gaze, such as blepharoplasty.

to the surgery which in this case the post-operative period may be a little longer and
characterized by swelling and bruising which will have to completely reabsorb.

In fact, even when it comes to aesthetic interventions for the body, there really are limitations
few and mostly concern the post-operative period.

even in summer.
Increasingly less invasive intervention techniques allow for short recovery times.
The only precautions are those regarding exposure to the sun, where it is appropriate
remember to always apply a cream with a very high protection factor to avoid irritating the skin
scars.
Butt reshaping operations can be carried out without problems even in summer,
because also in this case it is similarly to what we said for breast augmentation
modern intervention techniques allow the desired results to be obtained in a minimally invasive way
for the patient. With consequent limitation of post-operative problems and discomfort.
Liposuction and body remodeling operations deserve a separate discussion
body.
In these cases the major problems related to the summer season are certainly not due
to the intervention, which in itself has no contraindications in the summer period, as for the fact that
subsequently it is necessary to wear the appropriate containment sheaths for a period
quite long.
These particular garments are designed to compress and avoid sagging skin
following liposuction, which is why they can be uncomfortable to wear during the procedure
hot season.
At this time of the year we tend to sweat more and sweat can be a problem for
correct tissue healing.
Apart from this consideration, it is good to remember that liposuction can also be done
carried out without problems in summer and which your surgeon will be able to specifically advise you on
what are the post-operative peculiarities of this aesthetic procedure.
