Vous trouverez ci-dessous les différents traitements que nous
offrons à Beautiful Holidays Si vous souhaitiez un traitement
cosmétique qui ne soit pas spécifié ici contactez-nous
avec une description de ce que vous voulez faire et nous vous re-contacterons
avec les différentes possibilités. Il pourrait s’agir
de varices, de l’effacement d’un tatouage ou d’une
opération de la main.
Nous ne pratiquons pas d’opérations de changement de
sexe ou les opérations dans ce domaine.
Dans certain cas nous vous demanderons une ou deux photos numériques
de bonne qualité afin que nos médecins puissent juger
de votre situation. Vous pouvez prendre une photo normale de vous-même
et nous l’envoyer par la poste si vous n’avez pas la possibilité
de numériser les photos.
Dans la section ci-dessous sur les traitements vous trouverez aussi
si un séjour d’une ou deux nuits à l’hôpital
est nécessaire. Pour la plupart des traitements nécessitant
une anesthésie, nous avons une procédure standard qui
inclue une nuit à la clinique. La plupart des cliniques dans
votre pays n’offrent pas de facilités pour passer la
nuit. Chez Beautiful Holidays nous comprenons que la chirurgie cosmétique,
spécialement lorsqu’elle réclame une anesthésie,
peut parfois être éprouvante et entraîner des réactions.
C’est pourquoi une ou deux nuits passées dans un environnement
médical vous rassureront.

LIPOSUCCION
Liposculpture
La liposculpture est particulièrement adaptée pour les
femmes et les hommes ayant un poids relativement normal mais qui ont
des poches de graisse isolées qui font que certaines parties
de leurs corps paraissent disproportionnées par rapport au
reste. Ces poches de graisse isolées peuvent être héréditaire
et en général ne disparaissent pas en faisant des régimes
ou exercices physiques. La liposuccion est souvent l’unique
façon de s’en débarrasser.
Bien qu’il soit possible d’avoir recours à la liposuccion
à n’importe quel age vous obtiendrez de bien meilleurs
résultats si votre peau a encore suffisamment d’élasticité
pour que vous obteniez un contour souple après que la graisse
ait été retirée. Si la peau n’est pas assez
élastique, comme chez certaines personnes âgées,
la peau ne se remettra pas correctement et un lifting de la peau sera
nécessaire. What it does do
Liposculpture flattens specific parts of the body What
it does not do
Liposculpture should not be considered as the only means of reducing
weight (although it can) or as a total cure for cellulite.
Body zones where Liposculpture is most effectively applied
Liposculpture success is variable.
It works best in the following areas:
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- |
Lower abdomen (tummy)
Hips
Outer thighs
Inner aspect of knee
Beneath the chin- as part of the face lift procedure
Breast- as part of reduction procedure
Male Chest
Love Handle
Stomach
|
-
-
-
-
-
- |
Upper arm
Lower back
Upper abdomen
Buttock
Inner thighs
Lower legs |
The procedure
Skin markings are made before the procedure.
Depending on the areas involved, you will have either a local (LA)
or general anesthetic (GA).
The surgeon uses a cannula to suction fat using a cannula via one
or more stab incisions.
You will have bandages or specialised sticky tapes applied to reduce
bruising.
You should expect swelling, bruising and some discomfort.
Duration of operation
45-120 min. depending on amount of fat removed Ideal age
Under 55 with good skin tone Length of stay in hospital
1-3 days depending on amount of fat removed Medications
Mild painkiller
Holiday Required
2-3 weeks depending on amount removed Length of time result
last
Permanent, provided no weight is gained Anesthesia
GA is preferred and recommended, although it is possible to receive
a LA with sedation. Caution
As Liposculpture can be performed at different zones around the body,
different zones require varying amounts of work and subsequently we
require you to be a specific as possible when making an application
to Beautiful Holidays for Liposculpture. At your intake consultation
with your surgeon when you arrive in Malaysia there may be some changes
made to your initial requests. Beautiful Holidays will provide you
with a new quotation that matches the surgeon's final recommendations.
You should come to the intake conversation prepared to discuss your
medical history. This will include information about any medical conditions
you may have such as diabetes, high blood pressure or heart disease.
Our surgeon will want to know about previous surgeries, medical treatments
and medications that you currently take. It is important for you to
provide complete information.
How much you currently weigh and whether you plan to lose or gain
weight in the future will be factors in evaluating you for liposuction.
Your cosmetic surgeon may ask you about the effects of prior weight
loss on the appearance of those areas which you have indicated for
contouring. He will assess the elasticity of your skin and estimate
the amount of fat to be removed for optimal results. Once you and
your surgeon have reached a conclusion we continue with your scheduled
surgery. |

ABDOMEN
Egalement appelée chirurgie abdominale, c'est une opération chirurgicale reconnue, qui consiste à retirer l'excès de peau et de graisse allant de l'abdomen central à celui du bas et qui retend également les muscles de la partie abdominale. Cette intervention peut considérablement améliorer l'apparence des ventres proéminents.
Le principe de cette chirurgie est de tendre la peau en réduisant
celle en excès et ensuite de la retendre. La peau et la graisse qui
sont en excès sont donc enlevées. L'incision est faite à travers l'abdomen
inférieur, parfois d'une hanche à l'autre, mais ne vous inquiétez
pas les cicatrices sont dissimulées par les vêtements. Cette opération
est pratiquée sous anesthésie générale. En général ce n'est pas une
opération qui nécessite un séjour à l'hôpital mais nous préférons
vous garder pendant 2 nuits afin de pouvoir vous laisser sortir avec
moins d'obligations dues aux soins post-opératoires. What it does
The tummy tuck removes loose lax skin and excess fat from the abdomen/
tummy. It also tightens the tummy muscles, giving a curvier waist
and flatter tummy. What it does not do
A tummy tuck should not be considered as the only means of losing
weight as the operation only removes 2-3 kg of tissue. The
procedure
The method of surgery is to tighten the skin of the abdomen by undermining
the skin and stretching it. Excess skin and fat is then removed. The
incision is placed across the lower abdomen sometimes from hip to
hip where clothing conceals any scaring.
-
-
-
-
-

The skin is marked before operation.
Operation is done under general anesthesia.
The procedure involves cutting tissues from the lower abdomen
and relocating the belly button.
Liposuction may be applied to help shape the waist.
Drains are inserted which will be removed 24-48 hours later.
You will come out from the operation theatre with the hips and
knees bent.
You will be left with a scar, which will be low enough to be
concealed under bikini line.
There will also a small scar around the belly button.
The scar will take some time to settle.v |
Duration of operation
2.5- 3.5 hours Ideal age
40+ Length of stay in hospital
1-2 nights. Often this procedure is an outpatient operation but we
prefer to have you stay in the clinic for 2 nights in order that we
can provide you with more comprehensive aftercare, thus reducing your
overall postoperative care requirements. Medication
Strong painkiller and antibiotic Holiday required
2-3 weeks Length of time results last
Permanent Caution
Patients who intend to lose a lot of weight should postpone the treatment.
Also, women who plan future pregnancies should wait, as vertical muscles
in the abdomen that are tightened during the treatment can separate
again during pregnancy. If you have scars from previous abdominal
surgery, your surgeon may recommend against the treatment or may caution
you that scars could be unusually prominent after a second treatment.
A tummy tuck can change your appearance and usually improves your
self-confidence. Before you decide to have the treatment think carefully
about your expectations and discuss them with your surgeon. |

MEMBRES
Lifting
des bras
A thigh lift is done to remove excess skin from the thigh and buttock
area. This excess skin is usually caused by weight loss. A thigh lift
can be combined with other treatments What it does
A thigh lift will remove excess folds of skin from the thigh giving
a slimmer thigh. What it does not do
A thigh lift does not slim down someone who simply has a large or
fat thigh. The procedure
Inner thigh lifts involve incisions made over the inner thigh, hidden
in the groin crease. Outer thigh and buttock lifts involve incisions
extending from the groin around the back. Sometimes a vertical scar
in the inner thigh is necessary. These scars are concealed under a
bikini line and all of these scars fade with time. This procedure
is done under general anesthesia. Duration of operation
1-1.5 hours Ideal age
Anyone who has lost a lot of weight Length of stay in
hospital
1-3 days. We prefer to keep you in the clinic for a longer period
because the operation requires a general anesthetic Medication

l’age, alors que d’autre y ont recours des 20 ou 30 ans
car ils ont hérité de traits du visage.. La plupart
des personnes sont satisfaites avec les résultats car ils touchent
à l’expression du visage. The procedure
Mastopexy involves lifting up the nipple, pulling up the breast tissue

Lifting du front
On a souvent recours à une opération pour retendre la
peau du front afin de traiter des conditions liées à
l’age. Cela peut-être fait en conjonction avec d’autres
chirurgies régénératrices afin d’obtenir
une plus grande harmonie du visage. Un lifting du front est aussi
approprié pour traiter des traits hérités. Certains
jeunes adultes ayant des sourcils bas ou qui ont déjà
des rides dues au froncement des sourcils, au stress ou une trop grande
activité des muscles faciaux, peuvent aussi bénéficier
de cette procédure.

Using simple breast implant
Using a balloon (tissues expander) to promote skin expansion,
then replace it with an implant
Using tissues from patients' back or tummy |
The procedure
The surgeon will decide with you which of the above methods is most
suitable for you depending on the type of mastectomy, breast size,
position of the nipple and whether or not a women has had radiotherapy,
which affect the way skin heals. Each method has its pros and cons
and this will need to be discussed in detail with your surgeon.
Duration of operation
This depends on which method is used, so the operation can be between
1-5 hours Ideal age
Any age Length of stay in hospital
A simple implant can be done as a day case; however, for more major
surgery, a week could be needed. Medication

Remodelage du nez
Les chirurgiens plastiques recommandent en général à
leurs patients d’attendre d’être au moins âgé
de 14 ou 15 ans, voir même plus tard pour les garçons,
avant d’avoir recours à la rhinoplastie. C’est
parce que plus jeune, le nez n’est peut-être encore pas
développé complètement. Il faut envisager cette
intervention chirurgicale prudemment. Le désir de changer votre
apparence devrait être basé sur vos sentiments personnels
plutôt que sur ceux de vos familles et amis.
La rhinoplastie, ou la chirurgie pour remodeler votre nez, est l’une
des opérations plastique les plus communes. La rhinoplastie
peut réduire ou augmenter la taille de votre nez, changer la
forme du bout ou de l’arête, réduire l’écartement
des narines ou encore changer l’angle entre votre nez et votre
lèvre supérieure. Cette chirurgie peut également
corriger un défaut de naissance ou une blessure ; ou encore
aider à corriger des problèmes respiratoires.
Parfois certains problèmes respiratoires liés aux structures
nasales internes peuvent être corrigés en même
temps qu’un remodelage du nez. Votre chirurgien sera en mesure
de déterminer si ces structures doivent être modifiées
en même temps que votre nez. Is my implant safe?
All implant consist bag containing silicone gel or normal saline or
Soya bean oil or hydrogel. There are lots of rumors on the safety
of silicone implants especially in the USA where lawyers make money
out of suing doctors. So far, there is no hard evidence to support
that silicone causes various sicknesses suggested. Furthermore, the
improvement is silicone manufacture in the past few years means that
there are virtually no complications that arise as a result of failure,
rupture or seepage.
Please see our links section for more information on the risks associated
with breast implants. The procedure
A preoperative consultation is important to discuss the procedure
and desirable size. One suggestion is that during your intake conversation,
bring along a bra you would like to fill and bear in mind the surgeon
can only estimate the size of implant needed. Typically, an implant
size ranges from 120 cc (small) to 450 cc (big).
The incision is made either on the armpit just above breast fold below
The prosthesis is usually placed under the breast tissues on top or
below the chest muscle
You will wake up with breast bandaged and you will be sore.
The procedure is done under general anesthesia Duration

Recollage des oreilles
La chirurgie de l'oreille, ou autoplastie, est généralement pratiquée pour replacer des oreilles proéminentes, en arrière et plus collées à la tête ; ou bien pour réduire la taille d 'oreilles trop grandes. Pour la plupart ces opérations sont pratiquées sur des enfants de 4 à 14 ans. A l'age de 4 ans les oreilles sont déjà quasiment complètement développées et plutôt l'opération est pratiquée moins l'enfant devra supporter de railleries. Pratiquer cette chirurgie sur les oreilles d'adultes est également possible, et il n'y a généralement pas de risques supplémentaires lorsqu'elle est pratiquée sur des personnes âgées.
The procedure
The procedure is to take out some tissues from the breast and reshape
it so as to create a natural looking breast.
The surgeon will carefully measure and mark out the breasts according
to the size desired
The operation will be done under general anesthetic.
Breast tissues will be taken out and the nipple moved to a new position.
Liposuction may be used to help shape the breast.
You will be left with a scar around nipple, a vertical scar below
the nipple and a transverse scar along the breast fold below. The
scar will fade over time. Duration of operation

RHINOPLASTY/NOSE RESHAPING
Vous trouverez ici une description générale des différentes
options proposées. Nous avons une section avec des photos avant
et après qui vous donne une idée sur les différentes
possibilités mais n’oubliez pas que les résultats
varient d’une personne à une autre.
| |
Augmentation de la poitrine
Beaucoup de femmes choisissent de se faire une augmentation
du volume de leur poitrine afin de satisfaire ce désir
personnel d’avoir une ligne de buste plus pleine. Votre
poitrine ne s’est peut-être pas développée
jusqu’à une taille vous satisfaisant, ou l’un
de vos seins est d’une taille significativement plus petite
que l’autre. Vous étiez peut-être satisfaite
de votre poitrine par le passé mais vous trouvez qu’aujourd’hui
elle est différente. Souvent après une perte de
poids, une naissance ou à cause de l’age, les seins
perdent de leur volume et changent de forme. Une augmentation
du volume de vos seins peut mettre en valeur votre taille de
poitrine et sa forme ainsi que vous donner une silhouette mieux
proportionnée. Lifting de la poitrine
Perte d’élasticité de la peau, gravité
et d’autres facteurs comme la perte de poids, une grossesse
et un allaitement affectent automatiquement la forme et la fermeté
de votre poitrine. Les patientes généralement
satisfaites avec la taille de leurs seins peuvent se faire un
lift de la poitrine pour la remonter et la raffermir, le résultat
donne des seins aux contours plus jeunes. Certaines patientes
ne sont peut-être pas satisfaites d’avoir perdu
une quantité significative de leur masse mammaire au
fil des ans, dans de tels cas l’insertion d’implants
avec un lift de la poitrine peut augmenter leur taille et en
même temps remettre en valeur leur forme et leur positionnement.
Réduction de la poitrine
Les patientes ayant recours à une réduction de
la masse mammaire recherchent en général un soulagement
des douleurs physiques causées par le poids excessif
des poitrines larges. De manière générale
la réduction de la poitrine peut résoudre ses
problèmes et aussi améliorer la taille et la forme
de la poitrine. Après la réduction de votre poitrine,
vos seins seront mieux proportionnés par rapport au reste
de votre corps et les vêtements vous iront mieux. |

What it does not do
Rhinoplasty will not dramatically transform your look, or give you
a 'designer' nose, based upon your favorite celebrity. The
procedure
The operation is usually done under general anesthesia although a
simple insertion of silicone implant is usually done under local anesthetic.
You will wake up with the nose plastered or taped, and sometimes a
nose pack is used which will be removed the morning after surgery.
Your eyes will be swollen and bruise, you are advised to sit up or
lie propped up most of the time to reduce swelling.
Any stitches will be removed in 5 days and the plaster will be removed
in about 7 days. Duration of operation
1-2 hours Length of stay in hospital
None to1nights Medication
None Duration of leaves required
2 weeks Length of time results last
Permanent Caution
Try to avoid sneezing, blowing the nose, very hot baths, hot food
and drink. Do not attempt to clean the nose and above all, do not
peep under the plaster to see your new nose, as it will be disappointingly
swollen.
After the operation your nose will feel numb, stiff and swollen. It
will take 3 weeks before you will be comfortable in public, however,
it will take several months before all swelling goes down and for
the nose to take the final shape. During this time, you must protect
your nose from sun, heat and trauma. |

EYES
Aesthetic eyelid surgery is performed on adults of all ages. Some
people have eyelid surgery to correct problems that are a result of
aging, while others have inherited traits that cause them to seek
treatment as early as their 20s or 30s. Eyelid tightening is popular
as it improves the expression of the face. |
| > Back

Doubled Eyelid Operation
Double eyelids are created by making cuts on the upper eyelids and
by applying stitches to create the fold; the result raises the eyelashes
giving the eyes a brighter look. The Procedure
The operation is done under local anesthetic.
Skin markings are done before operation.
A piece of skin is removed; stitches are applied to create the fold.
There will be some tapes applied to the wound after operation.
Stitches will be removed 5 days after the operation.
Yours eyes will be swollen; there may be some bruises, which will
be settled in a week. Duration of operation

Blepharoplasty / Brightening Up The Eyes
& Removal Of Eye-Bags
What it does
This surgery will remove bags from under the eyes and excess skin
from the eyelids.
Double eyelids are created if desired. What it does not
do
Creases, such as crow's feet, will not be eradicated, though the lines
will be softened.
The operation does not improve cheek bags The procedure
Operation is usually under local anesthetic.
For the upper lid, the surgeon will take away a long ellipse of skin
along the crease, bags are removed, double eyelids can be created,
and although this leaves a long scar, is not noticeable.
The same is done for lower eyelid except there will be less skin taken
away.
Following the surgery, you would expect swelling and bruising around
the eyes that would subside within 2 weeks.
Stitches are removed 5 days later; scars are to be protected from
sunlight for several months.
Eyes may water a lot and they may feel gritty, tight, itchy and swollen,
but this will subside in a few days. Duration of operation
1- 1.5 hours for 2 lids Ideal age
Any age Length of stay in hospital
None Medication
Painkiller Holiday Required

Brow Lift
There are two groups of muscles in the forehead - one that lifts the
brow and one that pulls it down. As muscles get weaker with age, our
eyebrows gradually start to droop, causing excess skin to collect
in the upper eyelids. A heavy drooping brow gives a sleepy and tired
look; this can be reserved by the brow-lift operation, which raises
the eyebrows by cutting the muscles responsible for pulling it down.
This operation is often done together with face-lift. The
procedure
There are two ways of doing the operation:
-
- |
Open method where the surgeon cuts
an incision from ear to ear, brow-lift is done via this cut.
This will cut off some of the nerves giving rise to a numb scalp
behind the cut; this however has no effect on health.
Endoscopic method (key-hole surgery) where the surgeon makes
3-4 small cuts in the scalp and the operation is done via special
instruments using camera and TV. LSC has the facility to do
the endoscopic method. |
The operation can be done under sedation and local general anesthesia.
Duration of operation

THE
FACE AND NECK
A facelift restores smoother, more pleasing contours to your face
and neck. It can help you look as good as you feel, and perhaps feel
younger than you are.
There are few types of face -lift operations, the older technique
of lifting the skin only as practice by older generation of plastic
surgeons gives an unnatural tight look, however newer techniques give
much more dramatic improvement, at the same time looking natural.
Two of the more modern techniques used are: SMAS Lift
The SMAS layer lies just deep to the skin; it is strong layer of tissues
allowing tension to be applied on, so that when it is tightened, the
overlying skin is tightened at the same time. This operation involves
cutting out the SMAS layer and pulling it up with stitches. This operation
gives patient a tighter and smoother face hence a younger look, it
also improves the appearance of a turkey gobble neck but has a little
effect on nose-to-mouth grooves |
| > Back
to top |
The Extended SMAS Lift (Or Deep Plane)
This operation involves dissecting the SMAS layer right towards the
nose, freeing it away from the cheek ligaments and then pulling it
up to improve the look of the middle of the face, perking up sagging
cheeks, flattening nose-to-mouth grooves and reducing jowls, as well
as tightening the neck. This operation may produce less swelling than
limited SMAS; fewer scars and recovery can be very quick.
What it does not do
Give you a different face
Stop the ageing process How to prepare for the surgery
You can do a lot to maximize the potential of a face-lift.
You should be at a desired weight before you undertake a face-lift.
If you need to, we suggest you lose weight before surgery.
Smoking impairs circulation hence impairs healing. So stop smoking
altogether if you can at least two weeks before the operation. Some
vitamin C helps in healing hence take it regularly one week before
surgery.
Alcohol makes bruising worse so cut down on it.
Aspirin interferes with blood clotting; so don't take any at least
two weeks before and three weeks after surgery. (Many painkiller and
flu remedies contain aspirin) The procedure
The surgery is more comfortably done under general anesthetic, however;
it can be safely done under local anesthetic.
After surgery, you would have bandages and drains, which will be removed
the next day.
Stitches are removed 5 to 12 days later.
Your face will feel bruised, swollen, tight, numb, and stiff for at
least 10 days, you may feel depressed and miserable because you will
look awful initially, although this will slowly subside by the day,
you will begin to appreciate what a change you have.
Sitting up or propping up helps to reduce swelling, and a cold compress
applied often speeds up healing process.
You can wash your hair a few days after surgery.
Make-up can be applied after the stitches are taken out on the 5th
day.
Most people will be able to face the world 2 weeks after surgery,
back to work 3 weeks after surgery.
During the first three months, you are advised to avoid sport, any
other strenuous activity or prolonged exposure to the sun
It is important to keep the skin well moisturized. Duration
of operation
5 hours Ideal age
40-60 Length of stay in hospital
1 night minimum, two to three nights maximum Medication
Painkiller, sedatives, antibiotics, steroids (reduces swelling)
Holiday required
2-3 weeks Length of time results last

Endoscopic Forehead And Face-Lift
This is the latest in face-lift surgery. With this method, the keyhole
surgery technique is used. A special camera, TV monitors and instruments
are used to perform the operation. The procedure
Three small cuts are made in the scalp above the forehead, special
instrument are used to lift the forehead with the help of the small
camera and TV monitor, in the process, wrinkles and frown lines in
the forehead are removed.
Small cuts are also made just above the ear in the temple and behind
the ear lobe; again special instruments and camera are introduced
to perform the face-lift and neck-lift.
With time, all this small scars will fade to almost invisible.
Complication associated with the endoscopic face-lift is less and
the patients can heal faster without the signs of having a face-lift
done. |

Chin, Jaw Line And Neck Lift
With aging, deep folds and wrinkles develop and make the chin, jaw
line and neck less well defined; double chin and turkey gobble neck
appearance makes a person look old. This procedure reverses the aging
process by reposition the sagging muscles and fat pads; some of the
fat is removed and the excess skin is removed by a clever cut which
is not obviously visible. Liposuction is often needed to remove the
double chin. The procedure
This procedure is often done together with a face-lift; hence what
has been described for face-lift applies. General or local anesthetic
may be used, however, if only liposuction is done to remove the double
chins and neck, only local anesthetic is required.
There will be swelling and bruises, which will subside in about 10
days. Duration of operation
1 hour Ideal age
40-60 Length of stay in hospital
No stay is required for liposuction of chin only.
If done as a part of a full face lift, 1 night minimum, two to three
nights maximum. Holiday required
2 weeks Length of time results last
Around 5-10 years |

Enhancement Of Lip, Chins & Cheek Bones
Lip
The lip can be enhanced through many ways.
1.
2. |
Too much or too little lip is shown-
this can be corrected by a small operation under local anesthetic
where a small wedge of tissue is removed.
The lip is too thin- we can make it fuller (and sexier) by adding
filler material such as collagen injection, fat injection and
dermal fat graft. |
Chin
The chin may be too small or big; this can be improved by performing
a surgery on the chin either to make it bigger or smaller. We may
use silicone implant to make it bigger with better definition to look
younger. Cheek
Adding bone or an implant can make a cheek look higher or stronger
hence a more youthful. |

EARS
Pinning Back Ears
Ear surgery, or Otoplasty, is usually done to set prominent ears back
closer to the head or to reduce the size of larger ears. For the most
part, the surgery is done on children between the age of 4 and 14.
Ear surgery on adults is also feasible. The procedure
This operation is done under general anesthesia for children; bigger
children or adults can be done under local anesthetic.
A piece of skin is removed from the back of the ears and the cartilage
is softened to allow it to fold back.
Your ears will be bandaged and this will be taken out 7 to10 days
later, meanwhile, your ears may feel sore or numb.
After the bandages are removed, your ears will look swollen and red
or bruise, this will settle in 2 weeks. They should be kept flat at
night with a headband. Duration of operation
1hours Ideal age
From 5 onwards Length of stay in hospital
None Medication
