The Nordström
Hospital for Plastic Surgery
We
Do the Following Aesthetic Operations:
The hair for transplantation is taken
from the area of the permanent hair growth at the back of
the head. We prepare the micrografts cut as follicular units
under the microscope and they often contain just one hair.
This state-of-the-art technique allows us to achieve the most
natural looking results.
Facelift
restores a youthful appearance to one's face and corrects
the visible signs of ageing
improving the various areas of loose, sagging skin and muscle
folds of the face and neck.

With
age the skin of the upper and lower eyelids becomes wrinkled and
starts drooping. Dark circles and bags under the eyes, sagging eyebrows and the loose eyelid
skin can make you look
constantly tired or sad. Eyelid surgery corrects
all these signs of ageing.
Liposuction
removes the stubborn areas of fat that will not go away even with
diet and exercise on a regular basis. Today the attention is drawn
not to the amount of fat removed but to the general improvement
of the body silhouette. This more advanced surgical procedure is
called liposculpturing and its goal is to sculpt a more attractive
body contour. Liposculpturing is a challenging procedure as it is essential to do it
right the first time as further correction can be tricky and sometimes
even impossible. As
the fat cells in the adult do not multiply, once fat is removed
it cannot be restored. Even if the patient gains weight after the
operation, there won’t be any localized fatty deposits or bulges
that existed prior to liposuction.
Multiple pregnancies and significant weight
changes affect the abdominal skin elasticity and muscle tone. A
tummy tuck, also called abdominoplasty, removes the excess fat and
loose skin and tightens the abdominal wall muscles.
At our hospital we always use a computer
planning prior to the nose reshaping operation. Rhinoplasty reshapes
the bone or the cartilage and the soft tissues of the nose.
Breast augmentation increases the breast
size and improves its shape. Breasts can be enlarged with various
techniques, mostly with silicone gel implants. The operation does
not prevent lactation and breast feeding.
Large, sagging breasts often cause back pain,
tense muscles, postural problems and skin rashes and can also interfere
with normal physical activities. All these problems can be corrected
with breast reduction. The operation does not prevent lactation
and breast feeding.
Laser skin resurfacing safely and effectively
removes wrinkles and acne scars, tightens the skin, improves the
skin colour and elasticity and stimulates the growth of new collagen.

Full
and plump lips have always been considered sexy and sensual
while thinning of the lips and radial lines become an unwelcome
symbol of ageing, giving a tense and angry appearance.
At our hospital we use several methods of lip contouring.
Quite often this minimally invasive procedure is performed
in combination with other facial operations. Patients are
pleased with this rapid and easy procedure giving an overall
freshening and rejuvenating effect.
At our hospital we use safe and effective
substances for correction of facial lines and wrinkles, e.g.,
Restylane, Perlane, etc. We use Botox injections for treating
horizontal forehead furrows, vertical lines between the eyebrows
and "crow's feet".
