However, marketing has abused concepts as \u00abnon-invasive\u00bb or \u00abminimally invasive\u00bb in promoting certain esthetic techniques, and has caused confusion in many people who think that anyone who performs these procedures does not need a medical license.<\/p>\n

\u00abMany people are confused and even enters into treatments with people who are not qualified,\u00bb says Franklin Pe\u00f1a, plastic surgeon of the Centro de Cirug\u00eda Pl\u00e1stica Espaillat Guerra.<\/p>\n

The also specialist from the Clinica de Medicina Familiar, of San Pedro de Macoris, notes that the procedures like the application of Injectable Dermal Fillers (BTX) or hyaluronic acid are less invasive than surgery, but they are still invasive.<\/p>\n

Warning \u00abIt\u2019s not a surgery but, as a product is being infiltrated into the body, it\u2019s already invasive,\u00bb clears up Pe\u00f1a. \u00abPutting someone an injection is an invasive procedure. What is non-invasive? Putting on cream. \u00bb<\/p>\n

Therefore, although the risks are minimal compared to an operation, the application of Injectable Dermal Fillers (BTX) or of hyaluronic acid can only be performed by plastic surgeons or dermatologists because, as Pe\u00f1a warns, you have to know facial anatomy and muscles of the face.<\/p>\n

COSMETIC PROCEDURES<\/strong>
\nWithin the plastic and cosmetic surgery, Dr. Franklin Pe\u00f1a remembers, there are surgical procedures (surgeries) and cosmetics.<\/p>\n

Among the cosmetic procedures are injecting Injectable Dermal Fillers (BTX) and hyaluronic acid, dermabrasion, laser and chemical peels. From that list only the dermabrasion, laser and chemical peels are noninvasive.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1617654656123{margin-right: 15px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;background: #07397e url(https:\/\/www.drfranklinpena.com\/mywp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/banner-bg6.jpg?id=6176) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}\u00bb][vc_column css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1518646975951{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb][vc_row_inner equal_height=\u00bbyes\u00bb content_placement=\u00bbmiddle\u00bb css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1519134969446{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 3% !important;}\u00bb][vc_column_inner css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1550261994491{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb offset=\u00bbvc_col-lg-7 vc_col-md-7 vc_col-xs-12″][vc_custom_heading text=\u00bbREADY TO PLAN YOUR SURGERY?\u00bb font_container=\u00bbtag:h1|font_size:1.5rem|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff|line_height:1.2em\u00bb use_theme_fonts=\u00bbyes\u00bb css_animation=\u00bbfadeInLeft\u00bb css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1550257770023{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1550262009091{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb offset=\u00bbvc_col-lg-3 vc_col-md-3 vc_col-xs-12″][vc_btn title=\u00bbGET A QUOTE\u00bb style=\u00bbcustom\u00bb custom_background=\u00bb#e80e97″ custom_text=\u00bb#ffffff\u00bb shape=\u00bbsquare\u00bb align=\u00bbcenter\u00bb css_animation=\u00bbfadeInRight\u00bb link=\u00bburl:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.drfranklinpena.com%2Fen%2Fconsult%2F|||\u00bb el_class=\u00bbfrontcta\u00bb css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1617654975427{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]Cosmetic procedures to improve the image. Injectable Dermal Fillers (BTX) is the product most used in the world to eliminate wrinkles. It is injected into fine lines and frown lines, crow’s feet, the forehead and eyebrows, and produces a partial paralysis of the muscles, giving the face a more youthful appearance.<\/p>\n

For deep grooves like those presented in the nasolabial area, hyaluronic acid, which is a filler product is used.<\/p>\n

\u00abThese are, according to the plastic surgeon Franklin Pe\u00f1a- the only two products which are studied and that over time have proven to be safe.\u00bb<\/p>\n

Besides, you can use the same fat of the patient as filling material. In this case, however, it no longer would be a fast and simple procedure.<\/p>\n

Using fat from the patient involves investing at least half an hour to get it from the abdomen using local anesthesia, prepare it and then place it as if it were a filler, the plastic surgeon explains.<\/p>\n

The threads. The expert ensures that virtually no plastic surgeon uses threads, very popular method in years passed, to stretch and rejuvenate facial expressions, \u00abbecause they have proven to be ineffective.\u00bb<\/p>\n

The threads, he warns, may have the desired effect for a few months, but produce in some patients fibrosis difficult to correct.<\/p>\n

\u00abBecause its use is not safe it is advisable not to use it either in the the face or gluteus,\u00bb advises Pe\u00f1a.<\/p>\n

LIFTING TO STRETCH THE FACE<\/strong>
\nplastic surgeon Franklin Pe\u00f1a indicates the lifting as the face stretching technique most effective and with results tested for over 50 years.<\/p>\n

\u00abWhen a patient is between 30 and 45 you can perform a palliative treatment with Injectable Dermal Fillers (BTX), but when you have so much flaccidity in the tissues of the face, you can\u2019t correct it with a thread, but the excess skin must be removed and the flaccidity corrected\u00bb, Pena said.<\/p>\n

However, this procedure is not of the least invasive: you can\u2019t make it in a consultation the same as the application of fillers.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RYtwWzt7o_8″ align=\u00bbcenter\u00bb css_animation=\u00bbfadeIn\u00bb][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
