FILLER RHINOPLASTY – SURGICAL RHINOPLASTY NEW JERSEY

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00July 23rd, 2013|Categories: News, Nose|

Trying to decide between surgical rhinoplasty and filler rhinoplasty? The first step is comparing and contrasting the procedures. There are many reason why filler rhinoplasty may be the right option for you. In the end, it all depends on your personal needs.  Surgical rhinoplasty can involve extensive, complex reconstruction of bone and cartilage, along with the implantation of grafts and synthetic implants. You can expect these procedures to last up to four hours. Filler rhinoplasty, on the other hand, is much less complex and only involves external injections. Because of this, the procedure can last as little as 15 minutes. Its lack [...]

NASAL COLLAPSE – RHINOPLASTY NEW JERSEY

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00July 1st, 2013|Categories: News, Nose|

If you’re having trouble breathing through your nose after a rhinoplasty procedure, a nasal collapse may have occurred. A nasal collapse is a situation where one or more parts of the nose have experienced a loss of structural integrity and may seem deflated or otherwise malformed.  Rhinoplasty involves reshaping and removing the cartilage of the nasal skeleton. Nasal collapses are usually a result of over-resection, which is when too much cartilage has been removed. The heaviness of the skin becomes more than the remaining cartilage can bear. Thus, people with thicker skin are more likely to experience this situation. Other reasons for [...]

ANGELINA JOLIE’S ANNOUNCEMENT: THOUGHTS FROM NJ

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00May 14th, 2013|Categories: Breast, General, News|

Angelina Jolie’s announcement of having had bilateral mastectomy for BRCA 1 mutation is really admirable. Celebrities have an incredible influence on public opinion and this will help millions of women at risk of contracting the breast cancer to consider a procedure that will help save their lives. Prophylactic mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction is extremely successful today because the skin of the breast and most of the time the nipples are spared. The use of dermal grafts (ADMs) and the better quality of breast implants make the results of breast reconstruction more natural. The advent of fat grafting is another [...]

ANTI AGING WHAT’S PROVEN TO WORK? SIRTUINS, NJ

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00May 5th, 2013|Categories: Healthy Living, News|

What’s new in anti aging and what is scientifically proven to work? This past Saturday at the New York a Regional Society of Plastic Surgery spring meeting I saw Ivona Percec, M.D., PhD Assistant Professor of Surgery Division of Plastic Surgery, Hospital of the University of Penn who presented the results of the latest research about anti aging medicine. This is an exciting area of research. The pharmaceutical and the nutroceutical industry is all over it. Many drugs and supplements are available or in the pipeline. The only thing that has a conclusive evidence behind it is that reduced caloric [...]

WHAT CAUSES CELLULITE? EXPLAINS NEW JERSEY PLASTIC SURGEON.

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00April 21st, 2013|Categories: Facial rejuvenation., News|

Cellulite is French word that means inflammation or infection in the subcutaneous fat. The word appeared in the English language in the 1920 s and became popular since 1960s. The condition now refers to the dimpling and rippling of the skin of the lateral thighs, hips and abdomen. It happens in women, but can also happen in men who suffer from androgen deficiency. So the female hormones play a role. Anatomically it is caused by the attachment of the superficial fascia system to the dermis when the superficial fatty layer grows and creates bulges in areas where there is no [...]

STEM CELL FACELIFT IN NEW JERSEY.

2013-04-05T22:42:47+00:00April 5th, 2013|Categories: General, News|

DON’T ALLOW MARKETING TO GET AHEAD OF SCIENCE Google the term “stem-cell face-lift” and you’ll get dozens of pages of results — including several for doctors advertising their version of the procedure. Here we definitely see marketing get a head of science. In May 2011, the task force (a collaboration between the American Society for Plastic Surgeons and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) issued a position statement on the topic. After going through thousands of peer-reviewed articles published in medical journals on the use of stem cells in aesthetic procedures, they found only about a dozen that provided [...]

PLASTIC SURGERY UNDER LOCAL ANESTHESIA IN NEW JERSEY

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00March 31st, 2013|Categories: News, Plastic Surgery|

We continue to have great success with plastic surgery procedures under local anesthesia and this is becoming a specialty of ours. To perform this type of anesthesia successfully, the surgeon has to have experience in the field block anesthesia and have an in depth knowledge of the local anatomy. Patient selection is critical, as there are patients who may not be ideal candidates. The patients need to get a perfect bill of health from their internist or cardiologist. The blood pressure has to be normal or perfectly controlled. The patient has to be emotionally stable and be able to handle [...]

FILLERS BELOW EYES. HOW TO DO IT SAFELY.

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00March 3rd, 2013|Categories: News, Restylane, Juvederm, Botox (fillers and neuromodulators)|

I received a question on my facebook page from a prospective: Do you do filler injection under the eyes? I would like to answer this question by this post to make everyone aware of the issues in this particular anatomic location and how this should be done safely and effectively with no bruising and little to now discomfort and recovery time. For years I was doing filler injections to lips, nasolabial folds and cheeks, but not to the area around the eyes because of concern about intravascular injection that could potentially lead to blindness. I was looking for a safe [...]

WHAT IS THE BEST BREAST IMPLANT ?

2017-01-22T19:44:19+00:00February 9th, 2013|Categories: Braest reconstruction, News|

WHICH IMPLANT WORKS THE BEST FOR MY BODY? The breast implants come in different shapes, are made by different manufacturers and they have different surface characteristics, but they all have something in common. They all have a silicone rubber shell that is filled either with saline or silicone gel. The old implants had a silicone gel that was more liquid and in case of implant rupture this gel would come out of the shell and in some cases out of the capsule that the body forms around the implant. The new gel is thicker and more cohesive. It keeps its [...]
