Hope Exisits: Revision Rhinoplasty Can Help
March 18th, 2012Summary: We all go into our cosmetic surgery procedures hoping for amazing results. Most of the time we achieve them, but sometimes doctors don’t give you those perfect results after the first surgery. Nothing is your fault, and you do not have to suffer in silence. Revision rhinoplasty procedures are extremely common and can perfect mistakes left by primary nasal surgeries, as well as fix that over-worked look you may have gotten from having too many corrective surgeries.
Taking That Leap
The risks associated with cosmetic surgery is one of the scariest parts of the decision making process. While our results usually turn out exactly as we wished for, there are sometimes that doctors just don’t get it right the first time. Whether your surgeon took too much during your first procedure, or several corrective procedures have left you with an over-worked look, revision surgery can and will help. Cosmetic surgeons are trained to fix even the worst mistakes, and giving up never has to be an option. When your nose is in the right hands, you can rest assured that you will look better. Don’t live with the imperfect initial results of your plastic surgery disaster. The results of one (or more…) bad nose jobs can almost always be corrected.
Perfecting Those Imperfections
Revision surgeons can fix the damage done to your nose, regardless of what has been done to it by prior procedures. Below is a list of common blunders that revision rhinoplasty can help to repair:
- Repairing abnormal, twisted, or pointy nasal tips
- Restoring over-operated noses back to a more natural look
- Altering profiles after bad results from a primary surgery
- Many other plastic surgery mistakes…
The Right Questions are Critical
The key to having the perfect revision surgery is finding the perfect revision rhinoplasty surgeon. It seems like an impossible task, but armed with the right questions you can sort through the candidates and find the doctor that is perfect for your needs. Some of the most important questions to ask include:
The perfect revision surgeon is the best bet at getting the perfect revision results. The task of finding them may seem daunting, but by asking the right questions your search for the doctor who will bring you the results you desire will be easier than you think. Below are some critical questions you must ask:
- How often to patients return to you with concerns about their results?
- What types of revision work have you done in the past?
- What is the average rate of revision after your cosmetic surgeries?
- Do you have before and after pictures of your revision work?
Great surgeons will give you modest answers to these questions. No Manhattan plastic surgeon performs perfectly every time, and the most important trait in a cosmetic surgeon is that you trust them and feel comfortable and safe in their hands. Reviewing their before and after pictures, as well as finding out stats about their previous procedures, will set you up for success with your own revision surgery.
Revisions Bring Hope
Doctors can almost always fix your prior surgical mistakes. Sometimes they may say that they can’t do anything because of the scarring left behind by several other procedures. This is only true in very rare instances. Once you find the right doctor to perform your revision procedure, you can rest assured that you will get the results that you deserve. Cosmetic surgeons who specialize in revision surgery are dedicated to giving you beautiful, lasting results. Don’t suffer anymore thinking that your last results have to be your final ones. Even those who have had several corrective procedures can still have a beautiful nose. Hope is here.
It’s All About the Booty
February 10th, 2012Summary: Wafer thin used to be a popular look in the world of celebrities, but things are changing and GROWING! Take a look around… big butts are in. If you don’t have one naturally, don’t worry: implants might be your new best friend.
Celebrity Backsides
Kim Kardashian claims she didn’t. Nicki Minaj won’t say either way. Countess Vaughn is out and proud about hers. What are we talking about? Butt implants, of course! In other words, big booty’s! Implants aren’t just for breasts anymore. As the backside takes Hollywood by storm, more and more women are seeking out buttock augmentation to increase the size of their booty. If you want to look amazing, round, full, and famous, you’ve got options, girl!
Implants Are the Answer
Products have come out recently to temporarily give you a lifted, bigger backside. Unfortunately, it is basically like sticking a pillow down the back of your pants. Besides, who wants a temporary fix when a permanent one is so highly effective! No one wants to take their butt off at the end of the night. Or more embarrassingly, have some grab at it and get a handful of foam. Buttocks implants make your butt bigger, the same effect breast implants have on the chest, and they can give you a rounder look that appears more natural and feels better to the touch.
Basic Facts
What doctors refer to as “gluteal implants,” you will refer to as a beautifully bigger butt. Your buttock implant consultation will take many factors into consideration. Every cosmetic surgery is tailored to your specific desires and individual story. In the case of butt implants, ethnicity is deeply considered. What may be desirable for a Caucasian woman may not be the same as what may suit an African American or Hispanic woman. This is why the implants come in all shapes and sizes. The ones you select will ultimately be decided by how big you want to go. Buttock implants are not like breast implants in this way: they are solid silicone instead of gel filled pouches. Because of how much pressure you put on your backside when sitting, the safest bet was to make the implants unable to be popped.
You Know You Want To
You know that you want to have an amazing backside, and making yours bigger may be the key to getting that celebrity look. Below is a list of the Hollywood bums that most requested by cosmetic surgeons:
- Jennifer Lopez
- Kim Kardashian
- Pippa Middleton
- Jessica Biel
- Britney Spears
- Shakira
- Beyonce
- Eva Mendes
- Eva Longoria
- Jessica Alba
- Many others…
These women are beautiful, rich, famous, and have another thing in common: a round, beautiful shape. If you want all of these things and more, butt implants are your best option. They are a permanent cosmetic fix and will give you the look you most desire.
Ask Your Doctor Today
Miami Butt Augmentation procedures have seen a recent boom in popularity due to a climate shift in Hollywood about what is considered sexy. It is very important that you make sure your cosmetic surgeon is a professional with a lot of experience with this form of implant. Discuss things with your doctor like average healing times, risks and complications, potential side effects, and how much experience he has performing butt implant procedures. Asking to see before and after pictures is a fantastic way to see what kinds of results are possible with this and other cosmetic surgeries. The better equipped your doctor is, the better equipped your backside is soon to be.
Chin and Cheek Implants: Longer Lasting Results
February 3rd, 2012Summary: In some cases, patients want to achieve a permanent alteration to their face that leaves them looking younger forever. When this is the desired result, chin and cheek implants are often used because of how long they last.
Implants are a Great Choice
Chin and cheek implants are a great way to permanently alter the appearance of your face. Injectables, fillers, and even face lifts can sometimes have only temporary effects- but much like a breast implant which can enhance your bust for decades, chin and cheek implants can improve the look of your face indefinitely. In life we don’t necessarily always want to commit to huge changes… but when it comes to having a more balanced, fuller, more youthful looking face, most of us want to sign up for something that will last for the long haul.
Step by Step
A typical facial implant procedure is routine and follows a few easy steps:
- Anesthesia: Anesthesia is almost always administered during a cosmetic procedure for your own wellbeing. Your doctor will recommend whether an intravenous sedation or general anesthesia is best for your particular case.
- The Incision: Incisions made for a chin implant may be made inside of your mouth, or they may be made externally right below your chin. For cheek implantation, most often the incisions are made internally. This will depend on where the implant will be resting in association with the jaw and cheek bones, however. Doctors will discuss this with you before your procedure.
- Closing Your Incisions: Your surgeon will close your wounds using absorbable sutures or stiches that will then be removed a few weeks after your surgery. This is a critical part of the recovery process.
- Results: Your amazing results will be able to be seen almost immediately, but your final results will be visible only after the swelling from the procedure has gone down.
Most procedures follow these 4 easy steps. Discussing the process with your doctor will help you to know exactly what will be happening to you when you go under the knife. This conversation is particularly important if you are being put under with a general anesthesia.
Things to Consider
The downside of permanent implants is the risks and side effects associated with general cosmetic surgery. Any time you introduce anesthesia of any kind into the mix, you run the risk of some major complications. Those are so rare, however, with the perfect cosmetic surgeon. An A+ cosmetic surgeon will help you reduce the side effects that may occur with an implant surgery. Side effects like bruising, scarring, swelling, bleeding and infection are often unavoidable, but will be mild or minimal with the right care. Most patients of chin and cheek implants believe that the temporary downside is nothing compared to the amazing permanent results achievable with an implant procedure.
The Good Outweighs the Bad
Benefits of an implant over injectables, fillers, and lifts are overwhelming in those scenarios where patients know what they want and know they want it forever. Younger patients who have a few mild lines and wrinkles often love the temporary effects of products like Restylane and Botox, but women who have hit the age where fullness of the face has been lost and sagging is starting to occur, permanent implants work wonders. Your final results will be a fuller face and a more youthful look that will stand the tests of time.

Beautiful Face without the Trauma
January 8th, 2012Summary: One of the more negative side effects of getting a traditional facelift has to do with how invasive the procedure is. Now, a new technique called the Silhouette Lift can give you the same results faster and easier.
New and Improved
Silhouette Lift is a facial rejuvenation technique that produces the same results as a traditional facelift without the harsh risks and side effects. It is a much less invasive procedure, and the advanced techniques eliminate the need for general anesthesia and large, permanent scarring. The results of the lift will be immediate and there is hardly any recovery time! These days, the best bet for cosmetic surgery is to look into the most current and advanced techniques and technologies. Silhouette Lifts are your best choice.
Benefits of the Lift
Silhouette Lifts are really great for a number of reasons. Below is a list of just a few of the amazing benefits:
- Works for both men and women
- Best for those between the ages of 40 and 70
- Volume is redistributed so your face looks fuller and more youthful
- Stimulates the renewal of your natural collagen
- Procedure requires only local anesthesia (meaning less risk!)
- Smoothes wrinkles and other signs of aging
- Reduced side effects from procedure = faster recovery time
Faster, Faster, Faster
The reduced recovery time is probably the number one benefit of the Silhouette Lift. With traditional surgeries the recovery time is lengthy because of bruising, swelling, and scarring— never mind the scary potential of complications from general anesthesia! With this new procedure that is minimally invasive, you will see a reduction of all of these risks and effects. While facial movements should be limited for about 2 or 3, normal activities like walking or sitting at a computer can be done almost immediately. You will see your beautiful results in an instant!
How it’s Different
Traditional facelifts involve a lot of big incisions and is an overall harsh and invasive procedure. Silhouette Lifts uses special suture threads that give that lifted look without a lot of cutting and scarring. Because of this minimally invasive new technology, you can undergo the procedure while under a simple local anesthetic. Bruising and scarring is minimalized and the whole thing is a lot less time consuming. Your relaxed and refreshed appearance will match your mood because you will feel so much more relaxed knowing that you’re making a safer, easier choice.
Best Choice, Now
The best candidates for this procedure are those who are of good health and have a skin thickness that is of average consistency. If you have had a facelift in the past and are still experiencing sagging skin and jowls you may also be a good candidate. Young people make great patients as well because they are usually in great physical shape and recover very quickly. Discuss with your doctor any prior procedures you’ve had and the results that you’re hoping to achieve with your Silhouette Lift. Chances are it’s the best choice for you! Less invasive, technologically advanced ways of going about cosmetic enhancement are always the safest choice and a decision that can be made with the most confidence. You don’t want to risk it- get an amazing new face with Silhouette Lift!

Kids and Otoplasty: The Perfect Ears Early On
January 8th, 2012Summary: Cosmetic surgery is sometimes a controversial topic when it comes to procedures involving children, but armed with the right questions you will rest assured knowing that otoplasty/ear surgery has great benefits for your son or daughter!
The Big Boom
Cosmetic surgery on children and teens is a booming part of the industry. Whether it be for cosmetic reasons or for health benefits, more and more parents are electing to allow their kids to go under the knife. Otoplasty, a general term for any cosmetic procedure done to the ear, has become extremely common because of its incredible results. The ears are a unique area that can have a lot of deformities- but these imperfections are not ones that kids need to live with their whole life if you seek out cosmetic surgery early.
Armed with the Right Questions
Ears are sensitive areas that need to be handled with ease and care. The number one most important factor of an otoplasty procedure on a child is having a top notch surgeon. There are questions that everyone should ask their doctor before undergoing a cosmetic alteration. These questions become even more imperative when the patient is a child.
- What is the success rate of this procedure?
- How long/difficult will the recovery be?
- What are the risks associated with this surgery?
- What forms of anesthesia, if any, are most commonly used?
- What is the ideal age for a candidate of this procedure?
After asking these questions you should feel confident enough to make a decision on which surgeon is best suited for your child’s otoplasty surgery. It is still very important to look at a doctor’s credentials and past procedures before going ahead with any arrangements.
Go Under, Wake Up With Perfect Results
Imperfections to the aesthetics of the ear are complex, but if it fairly easy for doctors to correct them. Whether your child suffers from shell ear- an abnormality where the typical folds and definition of the ear are missing- or the ears just need to be pinned back- on children and teens doctor’s will often suggest surgery including a general anesthesia. Kids have a tendency to be uncomfortable in medical settings and any movement or reaction may negatively affect the results of their procedure.
Weighing the Facts
Because of the general anesthesia needed for the otoplasty surgery, there are some risks you need to consider. The lifelong negative effects of an ear deformity on a child, however, can be even more painful. As with any Chicago cosmetic surgery procedure, the pros and cons need to be weighed. If you’ve found a fantastic doctor you will find more often than not the good outweighs the bad with otoplasty.
Do It for Your Child
Plastic surgery and children can be a controversial mix. As a parent who’s armed with all the right questions and the latest facts and statistics you can be sure you are making the best decision for your child. Deformities of the ear can be devastating in this age of bullying and otoplasty cosmetic procedures can correct these issues before the patient reaches adulthood. Consider all of your options and speak with your doctor today. The best bet for your child’s future is more than likely an otoplasty surgery!
Rhinoplasty: Cure the Internal and the External
December 9th, 2011Summary: Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular procedures in the cosmetic surgery world. Corrections can be made to the nose for purposes of aesthetics, as well as being able to cure some pretty major problems due to a trauma or injury to the face. Nasal plastic surgery will give you incredible results, no matter what your motivation!

It is a highly individualized procedure because the final results can be incredibly dramatic to the overall look of your face.

No matter what the rational may be, rhinoplasty is one of the most common alterations available and it can and will work wonders on your nose and face.
So Many Reasons
Rhinoplasties are often done for both cosmetic and corrective purposes. They follow the same procedural steps- all that varies is the reasons behind the rhinoplasty. Listed below are examples of why a patient may choose this cosmetic procedure:
Cosmetic:
- Ethnic rhinoplasty cases are often due to the nose being disproportionate to the face. Corrections are made to the nose to make a more aesthetically balanced overall look.
- For those cases that are primarily cosmetic, rhinoplasty is an extremely common surgery. Often times the nose is the feature we dislike the most on your face, and because size and shape can vary so dramatically, nasal surgeries have become incredibly popular to alter the appearance of the face.
Functional:
- Nose surgery can correct complications resulting from facial trauma or injury. If an accident has left you with a broken nose, cartilage can be taken from other areas to reconstruct your nose back to its natural shape.
- This procedure can be used to correct a whole lot of issues associated with breathing and sleep. Rhinoplasty can open your air waves and fix a deviated septum. Often times this can improve several issues- including eliminating sleep apnea.
Collecting All the Data
Whether it is for matters of form or function- cosmetic alternations to your nose can leave you with the results you’ve been wishing for but never thought were possible. If you are looking for cosmetic improvement, you may want to choose a doctor based on his beautiful final results. If you are undergoing a rhinoplasty procedure for purposes that are more functional, your physician may be able to recommend a good plastic surgeon known for corrective surgery. Rhinoplasty can improve your nose’s shape, size, overall function- as well as curing some health concerns associated with nasal deformities. Because of this, doctors have diverse backgrounds when it comes to the surgery. Doing your research with insure that your results are what you’ve been dreaming of.
