RECONSTRUCTION PROCEDURES
Unilateral/Bilateral Cleft Lip and Nose/Cleft Palate
Cleft lip and cleft palate are congenital deformities caused by abnormal facial development. This condition occurs in 1 out of 1500 babies here in the Philippines, making it one of the most common birth defects in our country.
Fortunately, clefting is highly treatable; with professional help, reconstructive procedure can be done within 45 minutes, leaving patients to achieve a normal lip and nose after recovery. Our plastic surgeons are highly proficient in this reconstructive technique, which can permanently remove the burden that comes from having this unfortunate deformity.Traumatic Injuries/Scars
Traumatic injuries are physical wounds or shocks that come from external sources, as opposed to illnesses or diseases that grow from and thrive within the body. When injuries are serious, they normally leave lasting scars that are impossible to remove permanently.
However, various techniques can be applied to make them less noticeable. Our team has the expertise to make traumatic injuries/scars look like they aren't even there! Burn Injuries
A burn is an injury that occurs when the skin gets too much exposure and/or comes into direct contact with sources like heat, electricity, chemicals, light, radiation and friction. Normally, burns only affect the skin, with only the worst types of burns affecting deeper tissues like muscles, bones and blood vessels.
It is very important to manage burns as they cause grave pain, and can even result to permanent disfigurement and scarring. With our reconstructive offerings, we can help you manage and conceal your burn injuries.
Contracture Surgery
Scar Revision
This is a surgical procedure that aims to improve or reduce the appearance of scars, which can result from injuries wounds, or even previous surgery. Depending on the extent and amount of scars, treatment applied on the affected/disfigured area can restore its function and correct its appearance. The extent and amount of scarring is normally determined by factors like wound size, depth and location, as well as the person's heredity.
Keloid/Hypertrophic Scar Treatment
A keloid is a type of scar that develops some time after an injury. Unlike most scars, keloids do not subside over time and tend to spread to areas beyond the original wound site. It is irregularly shaped and usually has a smooth top and a pinkish to purple color.
Hypertrophic scars are normally mistaken as keloids, since they look similar-swollen, puffy and reddened scars that stand out from the surrounding skin. Unlike keloids though, these scars are confined to the wound site and can naturally subside after a long period.
Skin and Soft Tissue Tumors
Tumors are formed when neoplasm, a group of abnormal cells, forms a lump. These lumps are often benign and cause no real harm or danger, except aesthetically if they are located in areas that are open to casual view. Malignant tumors are called sarcomas, and they are far outnumbered by harmless benign tumors. When these malignant tumors develop on the skin, they cause skin cancer.
Tumor development on the epidermis can be removed to even out the surrounding skin. While there is a risk of scarring, this can be addressed by various scar treatments to make the surgical scar as unnoticeable as possible.
Soft Tissue Defect Closure
This technique involves the usage of flaps to cover and seal various soft tissue defects that may have resulted from recent trauma or chronic lesions.
Hand Surgery (Contracture, Soft Tissue Defect, Tendon Grafting and Repair)
Hand surgery involves both surgical and non-surgical treatments for various hand or upper extremity related conditions and problems. It can be performed to correct physical deformities for aesthetic reasons, as well as improve the hand's strength and functionality. The variety of surgical operations includes procedures like fracture repairs, injury reconstruction, tendon transfer and repair, and more. Microsurgical treatment may also be done to reattach amputated digits and limbs, reconstruct soft tissues, bones and nerves, and improve the function of paralyzed upper limbs.
Benign/Malignant Facial, Breast or soft tissue
Congenital/Birth Defects
Congenital disorders, or birth defects, involve abnormalities or defects that formed during the development of a fetus. These abnormalities on the structure, function, or body metabolism can lead to mental or physical disabilities, or even mortality among infants. Birth defects are caused by many factors, among them are genetic, environmental, or unknown ones. We perform a number of treatments to certain known curable congenital disorders.
Breast Reconstruction
Breast reconstruction is normally performed on women who have undergone mastectomy, or the surgical removal of one or both breasts as part of treatment for breast cancer. It involves the implantation of prosthetic material and autologous tissue from the individual's belly, back or buttocks to form mounds on the chest to replace the original breasts. Breast reconstruction normally takes more than one surgery, and extra steps may include adding areola or nipple, reshaping or resizing the reconstructed breast and operating on the opposite breast for a better match with the reconstructed one. Minus the sensation, the results show very natural-looking breasts.
Skin Grafting (for large defects and tumors)
A type of medical grafting, skin grafting involves the transplantation of a skin graft on an area of the body's skin that has been badly injured by extensive wounding or trauma, burns, extensive skin loss due to certain infections, and even specific types of surgeries. A skin graft is a patch of skin that has been surgically removed from one area of the body, called the donor section, to be transplanted onto another area that needs it. Doing this serves the purpose of a faster recovery process and improved function and appearance of the injured area.
Two types of skin grafts may be used: one is the more common type involving the removal of a thin layer of skin from the donor section, and the other one is the more risky type involving cutting the whole skin away for a full thickness graft.
Benign and Malignant Nevus Excision
Nevus excisions or mole excisions can be performed for both medical and aesthetic purposes. Moles that area benign can easily be removed within minutes, but excised moles need to be examined for any possibility of malignancy.
Closure of Large Scalp Defects
Scalp defects can result from a number of cases including traumatisms, tumor resection surgery, burns and infections, and necrosis or premature death of cells and living tissues from too much exposure to radiotherapy. Unlike soft tissue defects on the neck or head, scalp defects are more complicated to treat. The repair is based on the location, size and depth of the defect, and the flaps to be used must be designed to preserve the original hairline, allow acceptable redirection of hair follicles, and enable wound closure without excessive tension. The flaps may require skin grafts.
Trauma and Surgical Critical Care Management
Traumas are grave injuries that can cause permanent physical alteration on the affected part of the body. Treatment of trauma includes gradual therapy to improve or recover the function of the injured area. We have facilities to accommodate and provide critical care to victims of serious traumatisms.
PLASTIC / COSMETIC SERVICES - FACE
Facelift (Rhitidectomy)
A facelift, technically known as a rhytidectomy (literally, surgical removal of wrinkles), is a procedure in cosmetic surgery that is used to remove visible signs of aging on one's face. It usually involves the removal of excess facial skin, with or without the tightening of underlying tissues, and the redraping of the skin on the patient's face and neck.
Facelifts are helpful for eliminating loose skin folds on the neck and laxity of tissues in the cheeks, giving one a more youthful appearance. A facelift requires skin incisions; however, the incisions in front of and behind the ear are hardly noticeable, as they are hidden from casual view.MACS Facelift (Minimal Access Cranial Support)
The MACS Facelift (Minimal Access Cranial Suspension), also known as S-lift, soft lift or mini-lift, is an advanced technique for natural facial rejuvenation. It is a procedure that primarily provides results on the jaw line and elevates sagging cheeks.
The MACS lift is less drastic than the classic SMAS facelift, as it requires a smaller incision and guarantees lasting results after a quicker recovery process. The "mini" in mini-lift therefore stands for minimal scars and minimal recovery period!
Forehead Lift (Brow Lift)
Also known as browlift or browplasty, a forehead lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure used to improve "frown lines" or creases that develop across one's forehead with age. It is also done to elevate and improve sagging or drooping eyebrows for and give a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
Temporal Lift
The earliest signs of aging often manifest through the hooding or creasing of the skin around the eye. With a temporal lift, this can easily be corrected without the need to undergo major surgical procedures. Also called a lateral brow lift, this procedure can prevent early signs of aging and make you look years younger!, or the appearance of hooding or creasing of the outer eye. These are one of the earliest signs of aging, but very easy to correct
Blepharoplasty (Eyelid/Eyebag Surgery)
Upper Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure intended for reshaping upper lids that tend to droop, thus giving one a look of "sadness" or "tiredness." This drooping is caused by the excessive skin on the upper lid, which may inhibit one's peripheral vision and make simple daily tasks like driving or reading difficult. This procedure can also correct birth defects such as ptosis, a condition where the position of the upper lid is abnormally low, making the eye appear heavy and droopy.
Lower Blepharoplasty (Eyebag Removal) is a surgical procedure that removes puffy lower eye bags that normally result from the accumulation of fat deposits and loose skin on the lower eyelids. This procedure also reduces excessive skin on the lower lid.
Slit Eye / Deep Set Creation
Majority of East Asian people do not have eyes that manifest a natural upper lid crease, which some people consider to be an additional charm. Similar to an upper blepharoplasty, this procedure can address such a lack and create a natural looking upper lid fold that many women desire to have.
Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)
Rhinoplasty or "nose reshaping" is used to improve the function or appearance of the nose. This surgical procedure is performed with many variations and modifications, depending on each patient's cosmetic or reconstructive goal.
Appearance wise, this surgical procedure can improve the height and shape of the nose (tip and root), reduce the opening of the nasal nostril and ala (alar plasty or nose trimming) and lengthen the bridge of the nose (columellar lengthening).
Buccal Fat Pad Excision
This procedure removes the right amount of Buccal fat or "cheek fat," a packet of deep fat that enlarges the lower part of the cheeks, thus causing one to have chubby and round-looking cheeks. Removing these fat pads helps one to achieve a ," creatingnaturally-looking slimmer face and a more chiseled appearance.
Chin Augmentation/Reduction
Chin augmentation is a common procedure that is performed to improve the lower part of the face. This may be done as a reconstructive solution for congenitally (at birth) deficient chins, or as an aesthetic measure for the enhancement of the face's overall balance.
Chin reduction or mentoplasty addresses protruded chins by being performed with just the right amount of "chin removal" to create a more proportionate-looking face. is a common procedure that improve mentoplasty addresses rotrudamount of "chin-removal" he balance of the entire face
Dimple Creation
This procedure only takes a few minutes to give you natural-looking dimples you've always desired! No matter the type of cheeks you have, we can give you these features to enhance your smile. We create dimples the way they are naturally formed-creating a connection between the skin and the cheek muscle, so that the skin is pulled inward to form a dimple whenever the muscle contracts naturally
Cleft Chin Creation
Just like dimples, a cleft chin is another peculiar beauty mark that can be created using a simple surgical procedure. It involves a suturing technique that creates a dimple on the chin, giving one a unique look in just minutes!express yourself.
Mole Excision
Moles are dark spots on the skin that may appear at birth or develop overtime. Reasons for removing a mole may be varied, with one critical reason being the need for specialists to examine some moles for lly occurring. Some moles nule out any signs of potential malignancy.
Ear Hole Repair
Ear hole repairs are performed to restore earlobes that have been excessively stretched or torn. This can result from wearing heavy or large-holed earrings that exert pressure on the soft fatty tissue of the ear lobe to a point where it gets too stretched.
Hair Transplants
Hair transplants are performed on bald or balding body areas using a surgical technique that involves moving skin containing hair follicles from one part of the body to the area where hair needs to grow. Normally, this technique is applied to a bald or balding scalp, but it can also be used to restore eyelashes, eyebrows and facial hair. Primarily, aging men suffering from baldness will benefit from this type of procedure.
Collagen/ Soft Tissue Fillers
Injecting collagen or other soft tissue fillers is an easy and convenient way to enhance and give more volume to some parts of the face or body, including the lips and laugh lines.
NON-SURGICAL
Botox Injection
This is a very common non-surgical treatment for moderate to severe wrinkles and/or frown lines. People aged 18 to 65 can avail of this treatment, which has become popular among celebrities and ordinary people alike.
Botox is a protein complex derived from a type of bacteria called Clostridium Botulinum, which, when injected to the muscle, blocks transmission between the nerve endings and muscle fibers on the injection site, thus rendering muscles that are responsible for forming wrinkles and frown lines paralyzed.
IV Glutathione
Formally known as Intravenous Glutathione, this involves the direct injection of Glutathione through the veins, a procedure proven by experts to be the single most effective way of increasing Glutathione levels. Glutathione is one of the most powerful antioxidants found in the human body, and is responsible for strengthening our immune system as well as protecting our bodies' tissues and organs from harmful free radicals.
Nowadays, IV Glutathione is also being used by dermatologists as a whitening treatment for people wishing to achieve a fairer complexion. Unlike oral ingestion of Glutathione, IV Glutathione ensures faster visible results since the substance isn't destroyed by stomach enzymes and is directly absorbed by the body.
Fillers
Injectable skin fillers provide a quick fix to certain skin imperfections. They can be injected to the skin to increase tissue volume, reduce wrinkles, and improve the skin's overall contour without the need for surgery. Areas that are normally treated with dermal fillers include the lips, cheeks, nose, and wrinkles. These fillers can be administered to the facial skin safely and easily by professionals in our team.
Wart Removal
Warts area small rough growth resembling a cauliflower, which typically appears on hands or feet. They are caused by various strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV), which include certain strains that are known to cause cancer.
While some warts can disappear naturally over time, it is best to remove them immediately as they are unsightly developments. Wart removal by a medical expert remains to be the most effective treatment, and is preferable over certain over-the-counter and home remedies.Sclerotherapy (Varicose Veins)
This minimally invasive technique involves the injection of a special chemical (sclerosant) to shrink and eventually make enlarged veins on the legs disappear. The chemical causes the vein to collapse and stick together, stopping blood flow and triggering the body to reabsorb the vein. Patients may be required to undergo repeated sessions with numerous injections per session, depending on the extent of the varicose veins and the type of chemical used.
