Cosmetic Surgery and Skin Care News
Cosmetic surgery is booming in America. As more physicians
become involved in this new area of medicine, the public all too
often becomes confused with advertisements and claims as to
truths and realistic expectations in post-treatment results.
Along with this concern comes the bewildering and at times
critical comments about which specialty and training program
produce the best cosmetic doctors. In truth, there are multiple
academies, societies, and certifying boards which encompass some
degree of training in cosmetic medicine. Within each specialty
there exist areas of training and innovations that are not seen
elsewhere. Consequently, no organization can claim that members
are the best trained physicians to treat any or all aspects of
this rapidly growing science. In truth, medical education is a
continuing responsibility. Initiated with basic residency
training, proceeds with specialized fellowships, and progresses
it to a Board certification process. This provides the cosmetic
surgeon with the basic background tools, but certainly not the
finished product. From there, experience, continuing workshops,
meetings, seminars, visitations with authorities in the field,
and even more clinical experience make up the fine tooling of a
cosmetic specialist. Board certification implies that the
physician has met the specific requirements of training and
experience and has passed a written and oral examination on
specific medical and surgical topics. While a critical detail in
any potential surgeon's resume, Board certification alone does
not guarantee excellence in clinical practice. No matter how
prestigious the training and how vigorous some egomaniacal claims
of superiority, Board-certified cosmetic physicians still must
deal with risks and complications and should provide patients
with realistic informed consent at the time of preoperative
counseling in cosmetic medicine, a significant overlap exists
within different specialties.
Choosing a cosmetic surgeon can be frustrating and possibly
hazardous to your health. Health care has become quite
specialized, and cosmetic surgery is no exception. Today, in
addition to qualified cosmetic surgeons, some gynecologists,
otolaryngologists, family physicians, dermatologists, and
dentists may be performing some cosmetic procedures. None of
these specialists is qualified to perform ALL cosmetic
procedures. Therefore, it is essential for the patient to be
proactive. Use all resources available to you in order to learn
about the specific procedure you will undergo as well as the
professional best suited to perform that procedure.
Mini face lift threads yield, smaller incisions, and undetectable scars
The lunch-time facelift procedure is achieved by placing aptos or anti-drooping suturing threads underneath the skin surface. These face threads serve as a truss to elevate a drooping jowl, brow or sagging cheek pad. The cosmetic plastic surgery procedure thread has bi-directional knot-like barbs that hook tissue and lift it into place with more stability than conventional sutures. Depending on the number of facial areas to be treated the procedure takes about 30 minutes. The mini-face lift technique is a safe procedure, can be combined with other face lift procedures, laser resurfacing, and has the long-lasting benefits of a 'classic' facelift in a patient without excessive neck sagging.

Cosmetic Surgeon Presents "Scar less Facelift"
Many Americans fear the potential scarring and other visible signs of cosmetic facial surgery. The "Scar less" facelift procedure uses hidden incisions behind the hairline and inside the mouth-eliminating many of the telltale signs of more facial surgery techniques, such as shortened sideburns, step-offs in the hairline, pixie ears, and wide, visible scars behind the ears. |

Cosmetic Surgery Financing
Prospective clients usually apply for the loans at the doctor's office and the loan is offered
for work done by that cosmetic surgeon only. Many of these companies offer credit to people who would have otherwise not qualified. Don't get too excited because there is always some kind of catch here |
Breast enlargement from liposuction
A women's breasts can naturally enlarge from one to two cup sizes following the efficient removal of fat in other areas of the body using tumescent liposuction. Eric Finzi, MD, PhD, a board certified dermatologist surgeon with a specialty in tumescent liposuction, conducted the study after a number of patients returned to his office for their post-operative cosmetic surgery exam with the unexpected result from the body liposculpture procedure. Significant breast enhancement occurred in 43% of female patients who underwent one or more tumescent liposuction surgeries. Heavier patients who received more total fat removal were more likely to experience breast enlargement. . |
