2013 Wish List for Self-Improvement
January 4th, 2013
As we look forward to 2013 with optimism and anticipation, the first of the year is often a time of renewal and making personal resolutions. Cosmetic surgery is tops on the list for self-improvements. Telephone calls and website inquiries start pouring in to schedule cosmetic surgery consultations right about now. Both men and women tend to consider self-improvement at the start of the New Year. Cosmetic surgery and a variety of do-it-yourself improvements like teeth-whitening, along with diets and working out, are at the top of the list for personal changes. In my own practice, breast enlargement, liposuction and tummy tucks, followed by facelifts have been the most popular surgery requests soon after the Holidays. I see the trend for New Year’s cosmetic surgery requests to continue this year.
Lipo Fat Transfer: New Advances in Anti-aging
December 13th, 2012
Body-sculpting or contouring is an effective technique that often eliminates the need for more substantial anti-aging facial surgery. These new advances in anti-aging have marked a steady rise in the popularity of fat grafting in my practice, or sometimes referred to as lipo-grafting in the media. More of my patients chose contouring, following their consultations to evaluate facial rejuvenation options in our Contouring Clinics. Quick recuperation, along with an added benefit of minor liposuction to harvest fat cells is quite appealing to patients. The non-surgical facelift creates new options.
Nipntuck Naturalâ„¢ is my specialized fat grafting procedure in which aspirated (liposuction) fat tissue is first taken from a donor site, then carefully injected someplace else. Typical donor sites for women include areas of the abdomen, buttocks or flanks. Fat grafts naturally contain a lot of adipose cells. The regenerative cells are particularly effective for this procedure, because they have the natural ability to become a living part of the adjacent tissue. Significant anti-aging benefits for the face are now possible, omitting the need for any facial incisions. Fat grafting is or sometimes called fat transfer, but is essentially the same technique used in regenerative medicine today.
