Fat Grafting Procedure
As we grow older our face become more and more affected by the sun, gravity and use of expression muscles (chewing, smiling, etc). Deep tissues loose the ability to maintain a young look and expression marks appear on our faces. Fat grafting can help you fill the defects and regain younger appearance. It can be used to fill expression folds, sunken checks, scars and lips. This procedure is not sufficient to treat deep defects like multiple grooves around the mouse of heavy smokers. It can be done as isolated treatment or as a combination with laser, facelift and botox.
During the procedure the surgeon performs a liposuction from various body parts like thighs, tummy and buttocks and then injects the fat into selected areas needs to be filled. After disinfection of the donor and recipient areas, they are being sedated using local anesthetics. Sedative drugs also can be used, if so you may need an escort to avoid driving under their influence. For liposuction the surgeon uses wide needle or canola. After a short treatment the fat is injected to the desired site. The recipient area is usually bandaged. In order to fill sunken chicks often over filling is required because of absorption process of some of the fat injected. This can make your face appear over swollen immediately after the operation.
If the area treated is extensive it is advisable to restrain from activities after the treatment. Although most of the patients can go back to their daily activities right away. There might be redness, swelling and small hemorrhages around both the donor and the recipient sites. The severity of those symptoms usually depends on the magnitude of the procedure. It is advisable to avoid sun exposure until the above disappear (after approximately 48 hours). There is no limitation to use make-up. The swelling can last for weeks especially if the area is large. Every operation has its ricks. The fat being taken from the patient's body doesn't cause allergic responses. There is a small chance of infection.
You must remember that the effect of the injection is only temporary. Due to their biological nature the injected materials disassemble by the body. The duration of the effect depends on genetics, age, skin quality, life style and the area being filled. There are selected cases where the results lasted for a year, but in most cases half of the effect disappears after 3-6 month.

Bulgaria Get in No visa is required for entry for citizens of the EU, US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
However, foreigners (except for EU citizens) have to register at the police within 72 hours. If you have booked with a travel agency, this will be taken care of. If not - usually, your hotel will handle the necessary paperwork (ask). If you do not stay in a hotel, you will need to go to the police and take the tedious task of registering on your own. Especially for US citizens, Bulgaria is really cracking down on this. Failure to register might mean a 2000 Leva fine (about $1200 US). Also unless you are an EU citizen take care that you have an entry stamp in your passport, otherwise your exit could be quite troublesome.
Bulgaria By car If you want to reach Bulgaria from Western Europe by car, you either can take a ferry from Italy to Greece, or you will have to pass through either Serbia (make sure you took a green card from your national insurance company) or Romania.
Travelling from Greece you have to go from Thessaloniki towards Serres and then to Promahonas. Besides the sticker (see end) you need to pay the Bulgarian authorities health insurance (2 euros per person for 3 days, slightly more for more days) and car disinfection costs (4 euros for a standard car). Beware. It is common that while Bulgarians do get a receipt naive foreigners don't! Expect long queues on certain days!
The security situation regarding car theft shouldn’t be overrated. In small villages or the country, leaving your car should be safe, but in the big cities or the tourist spots it is advisable to improve your odds by parking either on the major streets or on guarded garages, where fees range from 6 lvs a day to 2 lvs an hour. If you plan to spend more time in one city, it might be better to get an abonnement, which on the average costs 60 leva a month. Most of the hotels have an own parking, and even at private lodgings it is often possible to park the car in the garden or so, just ask.
Plastic Surgery News...
- Following serious concerns raised about Staffordshire Ambulance Service NHS, the Healthcare Commission launched an investigation covering the period April 2004 to June 2007. In particular, there were concerns about the trust’s management of risk, its use of medicines and its community first responder scheme. Some of the findings of the investigation were as follows:
1. Ambulance staff and volunteer community first responders were supplied with drugs that they were not legally supposed to possess, such as diazepam and midazolam.
2. Medicines in the trust’s stations regularly went missing or were unaccounted for due to poor recording and monitoring.
3. Patients were sometimes given larger packs of drugs than they needed and told to dispose of the excess themselves.
4. Community first responders were allowed to drive at speed using blue lights and sirens, without the necessary advanced driving training.
5. The doctors employed in the out-of-hours GP service, provided by the trust for south Staffordshire were not always GPs, nor were they approved by the relevant PCTs.
6. The ambulance trust introduced new equipment without guidance on which patients it was appropriate for or evidence that it was beneficial or cost effective.
7. Delays in transferring patients from ambulances to A&E were not well managed.
The Commission stresses that West Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust (WMAS), which took over Staffordshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust in October 2007 has already made progress on addressing these issues, such as introducing a new system for supplying medicines to community first responders and ambulance staff; and formal pharmaceutical advice is now available to the trust. The Healthcare Commission is also calling on the Department of Health and the Home Office to improve guidance to trusts on licenses to possess controlled drugs.
