What is multiple lipomatosis?

The symmetric multiple lipomatosis It is a rare disease that presents the symmetrical growth of lipomas (fatty tumors) in areas such as; neck, chest, arms and shoulders. The signs and symptoms vary greatly from person to person. In general, the accumulation of fatty tissue increases over time and can lead to difficulties in mobility of the neck and a greater perception of pain. The lipomas they can cause physical deformity and peripheral neuropathy, when they compress a nerve. In most cases, the disease does not cause cancer; however, in very rare cases, lipomas can become cancerous.

It is a condition characterized by the appearance of multiple lipomas on the trunk and extremities. They usually occur in more than one family member. Lipomas, although they are not very painful, aesthetically and functionally affect the person who has them. Patients with multiple lipomatosis generally received some type of surgical treatment and present unsightly scars, which is why they hesitate to continue with the removal of the rest.

Symmetrical multiple lipomatosis treatment

He Dr. Ricardo Hoogstra developed a technique that allows the removal of lipomas leaving minimal scars. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia, sometimes associated with sedation.

Many lipomas can be removed in a single intervention, sometimes reaching more than 30. Frequently, the removal of multiple lipomas in a single session is requested by foreign patients who travel to the country for the sole purpose of performing this treatment.

Length of stay in Buenos Aires for this type of procedure: 48 hours. Patients can immediately continue their activity. It is recommended to use compressive lycra garments and elastic bands.

Clinical picture

Ectropion is an alteration in the position of the eyelids in which it everts and moves away from the eyeball, in such a way that the inner surface (conjunctiva) is exposed. In most patients, ectropion occurs on the lower eyelid.

Symptoms

Dry and painful eye, tearing, redness of the eyelid, conjunctivitis.

Causes

It occurs in elderly patients, due to a weakness of the myoneural plate of the orbicularis oculi muscle.
It is also seen very frequently in eyelid surgeries that dry out the skin and approach the adipose bags through the orbicularis oculi muscle.
Other causes are facial paralysis, burn sequelae, etc.

Complications

If ectropion is not resolved in time, corneal ulcers and eye infections can occur, both of which can affect vision.

Prevention

Perform aesthetic surgeries that do not cause damage to the orbicularis oculi muscle and, if possible, do not dry out the skin of the eyelid.

Treatment

An ophthalmological assessment by a lacrimal duct specialist is recommended to determine their status prior to surgery. In some cases, lacrimal duct intubation with silicone stents may be necessary.

These procedures are performed under local anesthesia and sedation, so the patient can go home that same day. The duration of the procedure is approximately 30 minutes. The stitches are usually removed between 10 and 14 days after surgery. The first 48 to 72 hours there is usually edema and hematoma in the periocular region that improves with local cold and rest.

Increasing of buttocks

Auto graft of fat in the buttocks. It is a procedure designed to increase and give volume, roundness and projection to the buttocks.

Buttock augmentation is a procedure that reshapes and improves the shape of the gluteal area, providing a profile of the raised and projected buttock.

The buttocks are one of the most attractive parts of the female body. In the past ten years, this procedure has become increasingly popular worldwide as well-shaped buttocks are a symbol of femininity and sensuality.

The gluteal fat grafting improves the balance of the figure and molds the body contour, producing an effect in increasing self-esteem and self-confidence.

Intervention

The most frequent method to shape the buttocks is through the fat obtained from the patient's own body. This procedure is a good alternative for its safety and optimal results, in order to obtain the desired harmony.

Reasons to consider a buttock augmentation treatment

  • Lack of volume or buttocks too small for your body structure.
  • Buttock shape too flat and without curves.
  • Flaccidity due to weight loss or aging.
  • If the clothes and swimsuits do not fit correctly in your figure.

Lipo fat transfer or auto grafting in the gluteal region produces results that are immediately visible, although the definitive results must be evaluated at 6 months.

We can obtain naturally rounded buttocks both in texture and appearance.

In order to carry out an adequate fat auto graft in the gluteal region, it is essential that the patient has abundant fat in the abdomen and lower limbs.
