Men under the knife

Plastic surgery is becoming more attractive to
men looking to recapture their youth

When it comes to looks, Bruce is on top of things. The
58-year-old SoCal professional has lived a good life, maintained his
physique and is pleased with his overall appearance. But, until
recently, underneath the veneer of attractiveness was something Bruce
felt self-conscious about — scars left over from an accident he’d had as
a teenager.

felt self-conscious about — scars left over from an accident he’d had as
a teenager.
At the time, he said, doctors were
more concerned with saving his life than preserving his skin. He was
left with noticeable surgery scars that went through several layers of
tissue on his chest and back. For 40 years he kept them covered whenever
possible, though the gruesome reminders of his childhood misfortune
were always with him.

Facelift Performed While You’re Awake – Today on “The Doctors”
Non-surgical procedures have seen a boost in recent years largely
because many fear the long recovery period associated with cosmetic
surgery procedures. There are some physicians who have found a
happy medium for their patients that balances the more dramatic effects
of surgery while minimizing pain and downtime.
Facelift
is a very popular surgery amongst those looking to remove fine lines
and wrinkles and restore skin’s youthful tightness. However,
traditional facelift procedures involve some uncomfortable recovery and
significant swelling and bruising. Often several weeks pass before a
patient is really able to see the full results. New advances in
facelift technique are minimizing that recovery period and patients are
seeing their results sooner than ever.
Recently featured on The
Doctors, Beverly Hills cosmetic surgeon Dr. Nicholas Nikolov has
developed what he calls a Nick-Tuck procedure. This facelift is
performed while the patient is awake, with only local sedation.
Additionally, Dr. Nikolov uses a fibrin glue to help adhere the skin
flap back to the underlying tissues. He says that this technique helps
reduce some of the signs of surgery such as bruising, swelling, and
discomfort. Dr. Nikolov also uses a smaller incision than with
classical facelift, so that the patient has less scarring as well.

Women have more help aging naturally

Women have more help aging naturally
by Laura Elder
Victoria Homann is a firm believer in aging
gracefully. She exercises, eats nutritious foods and makes regular
visits to the League City practice of Dr. Elena Geppert, a plastic
surgeon.
But Homann, 48, isn’t ready for anything as drastic as a full face-lift. She hopes to avoid that for some time.
So
Homann, a grandmother who sells nutraceutical supplements for a living,
visits Geppert’s Harbour Plastic Surgery, 3033 Marina Bay Drive, for
minor procedures. Those include laser skin resurfacing and injectables
such as Botox, and hyaluronic acid fillers that help plump her face and
fill in lines. Homann said her favorite procedure is Sculptra
Aesthetic, a polylactic acid approved last year for cosmetic use, to
correct lines and folds. Sculptra is commonly referred to as the
“liquid face-lift.”
The recession hasn’t stopped U.S. consumers
from seeking professional help to turn back time. In 2008, doctors
performed 12 million plastic surgery procedures. But the economy has
changed the type of procedures in demand, observers say.

The Look of Silicone with the Safety of Saline: The Ideal Implant
November 24, 2009
There are many options in breast augmentation
to consider such as what type of implant, whether to place it above or
below the muscle, and where to place the incision. Traditionally women
had only two options in their implants – saline or silicone. Several
doctors around the country are participating in an FDA investigation
into a new implant called The Ideal Implant.
