Dear Valued Patients, We hope you are well and are keeping safe by staying home and minimizing contact with others. As you are all aware, we are facing a true world pandemic with this coronavirus that has caused many deaths, especially in the older and debilitated populations. The numbers of cases are increasing presently, but we hope we will see a peak and then a drop within the next month. All elective surgery cases are suspended in order to save resources for the patients affected by the virus. It is recommended that we all stay home and avoid contact with [...]
I just sent this email to all the members of my tennis club. I am going to chair the social committee this coming season and I thought everyone should be aware of certain precautions. I am sharing that email here for the benefit of my patients. Like many of you, I can’t wait to start our tennis season including the socials and round robins. Unfortunately, we are facing a viral epidemic around the world that started in China and is rapidly spreading. We are all closely following the developments and the epidemiology of this virus. I think it is [...]
Dr. Rafizadeh uses multipple breast reduction techniques in Morristown N.J. There are essentially 5 different ways to reduce a breasts depending on the size, composition of the breast tissue, and how much of an uplift is desired by the patient. First there is a scarless reduction that works with breasts that are more fatty than glandular. This is essentially liposuction of the breast. With this technique there is considerable reduction and some shrinkage of skin, but less or no correction of the sagging breasts. All the other technique will result in more and less scarring. Reducing skin excess will [...]
​Recently a patient with slight breast asymmetry and true drooping on the left asked if they were a candidate for a Benelli lift. This is the answer: Let us do a quick analysis of your situation based on three photos. On your right side, you have a pseudo ptosis as your nipple seems to be at or above your infra mammary fold. On the left, you have true ptosis. With the nipple below the fold. Both areole are large, but the left is larger. Therefore you would need a stronger lift on the left. The advantage of the vertical scar [...]
The effort to make a scar shorter is part of every surgical decision that I make. I try to make the shortest scars in my facelifts, breast reductions, breast lifts and tummy tucks. In a TT we are challenged by the dog ears. The challenge is, how short one can make the scar and still avoid a dog ear. If the scar is too short the ends can be loose and produce a raised loose area that is called a dog ear. In many cases the loose skin extends to the sides and needs to be removed for the best [...]
