Anti-aging Refresh for the Holidays
November 23rd, 2019
Anti-aging quick fixes or minor nipntucks usually do not offer permanent changes. However, a short clinic visit for Botox® and facial fillers, the minimally invasive procedures can offer facial rejuvenation with minimal downtime and quick recovery just in time for the Holidays. Recent advances in fat grating techniques, can also give patients a more permanent solution.
Fat grating or lipo-transfer utilizes liposuction and repurposing the fat to plump sagging faces, minimize lip wrinkles and more. Fat is removed from areas like the abdomen or thighs and the concentrated fat cells are injected and sculpted into targeted areas for facial rejuvenation.

Dr. Bashioum’s Patient Review
November 5th, 2019
Darcy B. writes, I know that Dr. Bashioum is a technically astute surgeon, but he also has an artist’s eye for beauty! I am a CRNA (provider of anesthesia) and for 15 years I have been at the head of the operating room table, having a great view of the work of numerous surgeons. From my vantage point, it seems that many surgeons struggle to place implants evenly on the chest, have nipples fall in the appropriate place, and even leave a neat incision. I chose Dr. Bashioum because I knew he was skilled. He placed my implants in 2003 and the symmetry, proportion and placement are the best I have ever seen. He sculpts like an artist and, from my perspective, this is indeed a rare talent among his peers. Renaissance man? Possibly.
Dr. Bashioum replies: Good Morning Darcy, I am honored to be reading your review this week and I am humbled by your praise. I especially appreciate your comments given your perspective as a CRNA and strive to create that aesthetically balanced result for all my cosmetic surgery patients. My practice is devoted to giving patients a natural result, and after 30 years as a surgeon, it is wonderful to know that the attention to my surgical approach is respected. Thank you for taking time to share your comments with our Nipntuck.com Blog readers.
