Lip Lift Ameliyatı Sonrasında İz Kalır mı?
Burun tabanıyla dudak bileşkesi hizasında ince bir iz kalacaktır. Bu iz erken dönemde daha taze ve kızarık, uzun dönemde ise belli belirsiz bir iz gibi olacaktır. Ancak o bölgede hayat boyu kalacak bir iz olduğunu unutmamak gerekir. Yaşlı, açık tenli kişilerde yara iyileşmesi daha iyi olacağından iz neredeyse hiç belli olmayacaktır. Deriden kabarık iyileşmeye meyilli, keloide yatkın hastalarda ise bu ameliyat yapılmamalıdır.
