Fancy Feet in Beverly Hills

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 16:57:00 +0000

Americans spend a great deal of time on their feet. As the Nation becomes more active across all age groups, the need for foot care will become increasingly important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Podiatrists treat corns, calluses, ingrown toenails, bunions, heel spurs, and arch problems; ankle and foot injuries, deformities, and infections; and foot complaints associated with diseases such as diabetes. To treat these problems, podiatrists prescribe drugs, order physical therapy, set fractures, and perform surgery.

About 20 percent of adults have flat feet. Flat feet don't cause disabilities or other problems as long as the foot is supple and the heel cord, or Achilles tendon, isn't tight. This is called flexible flat foot.

Plantar fasciitis and heel spur syndrome result from inflammation of the ligament like tissue (the fascia) that stretches from the base of the toes, across the arch of the foot, to a point on the bottom of the heel bone. It is sometimes associated with a heel spur, in which case it is called "heel spur syndrome." The condition can usually be successfully treated with conservative measures such as use of anti-inflammatory mediations and ice packs, stretching exercises, orthotic devices, and physical therapy

Many of the procedures that Beverly Hills Physicians offer directly impact our patient's quality of health. You may be surprised to know that these procedures are often fully or partially covered by your insurance provider. Such procedures include our weight managment, dental, lasik as well as podiatry services.

Breast Augmentation--Female Plastic Surgeon in Atlanta, Georgia

noreply@blogger.com (LYB42) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 20:23:00 +0000

The first question in consideration for breast augmentation is if you want to treat ptosis (dropping of the breast) or if you only want to increase the size of your breast. Ptosis can be treated with augmentation alone, if the patient is willing to accept the low position of the nipple‐areolar complex on the breast. However, if the nipple‐areolar complex is to be elevated then a Mastopexy (Breast Lift) will need to be combined with the augmentation.

Your doctor can be an invaluable resource, not only for information about the advantages and purposes of different techniques, but also for what you bring to the "table." You are unique physically as well as personally, and your body's build may translate into possibilities or limitations not applicable to others. Your doctor should help you to make the choices that are right for you individually.

Nose Surgery by Dr. Piro

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 17:13:00 +0000

Rhinoplasty, or surgery to reshape the nose, is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper lip. It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems.

When rhinoplasty is performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, complications are infrequent and usually minor. Nevertheless, there is always a possibility of complications, including infection, nosebleed, or a reaction to the anesthesia. You can reduce your risks by closely following your surgeon's instructions both before and after surgery.

In the days following surgery, when your face is bruised and swollen, it's easy to forget that you will be looking better. In fact, many patients feel depressed for a while after plastic surgery-it's quite normal and understandable.

Still, healing is a slow and gradual process. Some subtle swelling may be present for months, especially in the tip. The final results of rhinoplasty may not be apparent for a year or more.

Dr. Piro’s Liposuction techniques

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:52:00 +0000

Fluid Injection, a technique in which a medicated solution is injected into fatty areas before the fat is removed, is commonly used by plastic surgeons today. The fluid — a mixture of intravenous salt solution, lidocaine (a local anesthetic) and epinephrine (a drug that contracts blood vessels) — helps the fat be removed more easily, reduces blood loss and provides anesthesia during and after surgery. Fluid injection also helps to reduce the amount of bruising after surgery.

Large volumes of fluid — sometimes as much as three times the amount of fat to be removed — are injected in the tumescent technique. Tumescent liposuction, typically performed on patients who need only a local anesthetic, usually takes significantly longer than traditional liposuction (sometimes as long as 4 to 5 hours). However, because the injected fluid contains an adequate amount of anesthetic, additional anesthesia may not be necessary.

The super-wet technique is similar to the tumescent technique, except that lesser amounts of fluid are used. Usually the amount of fluid injected is equal to the amount of fat to be removed. This technique often requires IV sedation or general anesthesia and typically takes one to two hours of surgery time.

Ultrasound-Assisted Lipoplasty (UAL). This technique requires the use of a special cannula that produces ultrasonic energy. As it passes through the areas of fat, the energy explodes the walls of the fat cells, liquefying the fat. The fat is then removed with the traditional liposuction technique.

Liposuction in California by Dr. Frank Piro

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:37:00 +0000

Liposuction is recommended for patients who have excess subcutaneous fat, which is resistant to diet and exercise. If you wish to change the contours of your body. Commonly involved areas are the anterior part of the neck (under the chin), upper arms and armpits, male chest/breasts, trunk, abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, inner knees, calves, and ankles. Most patients are near normal weight and desire permanent contour changes.
Liposuction provides a permanent improvement in the contour and proportion of the treated areas. Creating a more flattering figure or physique, in or out of clothing. This procedure is done on an outpatient basis. General anesthesia is usually used for safety and comfort.

The best candidates for liposuction are normal-weight people with firm, elastic skin who have pockets of excess fat in certain areas. You should be physically healthy, psychologically stable and realistic in your expectations. Your age is not a major consideration; however, older patients may have diminished skin elasticity and may not achieve the same results as a younger patient with tighter skin.

If your expectations are realistic, you will probably be very pleased with the results of your surgery. You may find that you are more comfortable in a wide variety of clothes and more at ease with your body. And, by eating a healthy diet and getting regular exercise, you can help to maintain your new shape.

Feeling Stressed??? It Shows…

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 18:14:00 +0000

Did you know that the life you lead, and the lifestyle you have is without a doubt written on your face? It’s true; most people don’t realize that when you have had a lot of stress or poor habits in your life, it will show on your face. Factors like too much sun, smoking, hi-stress, anger, significant weight loss or weight gain shows up on the face with alarming results. You can reverse some of the signs of aging, or damages by having some simple procedures done, such as Botox injections, or a simple chemical peel.
With a few inexpensive procedures done, it can make you feel like a million bucks!

When You Select Your Plastic Surgery

noreply@blogger.com (LYB42) — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 18:06:00 +0000

TV's not the same animal it was just a few short decades ago. Do you remember the days described by comedian Jeff Foxworthy, when there were only three television channels? "And if the president was on, your night was shot"? It isn't just the number of stations that has exploded. The content those stations carry has expanded as well. Maybe it has more to do with where and when I was raised than I give it credit for, but what I recall of plastic surgery in the '80s had more to do with tut-tutting the latest changes to Michael Jackson's nose than any amount of TV coverage. There's a Plastic Surgery Channel, today. In the '90s there was the flap over whether silicone breast implants spelled Armageddon. Today, the proudly-augmented go on Oprah (and shows like it) where we learn that we, too, may be surgically immortalized.

Television and reality never have kept much company, least of all on "reality shows." In my experience, reality usually falls into the bland middle-ground between the highs and lows that producers see fit to broadcast. It's true that there have been exciting surgical advances, with greater promise ahead. However informative or even unbiased a media article (or blog post) may be, however, it can't provide the whole story because surgery, whatever its purpose or practitioner, is as dependent on physiology as it is on science. The only way to get the whole story as it applies to you is by getting in a room with a surgeon who can match up where you are with where you want to go. Preparation helps, too: bring along a list of specific questions to ask of your doctor. Listen carefully to and honestly consider his recommendations, especially the ones you did not anticipate. Remember that doctors are people, and if you consult with more than one, you may hear more than one recommendation, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. And don't be too insistent upon a particular procedure. As Michigan plastic surgeon, Dr. John Sampson, M.D., explains, "If you ask enough doctors to perform a cosmetic procedure that may be detrimental to you, eventually you will find one who will do it."

Breast Asymmetry

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 18:00:00 +0000

The decision to add breast volume or reduce breast volume to improve breast asymmetry depends on the goals of the individual. In either case, the outcome of balancing breast size between the breasts, breast surgery is enhancing and most patients are pleased with the results. The size and projection of the nipple may also add to an asymmetric appearance of the breasts. In addition, some women with breast asymmetry have breast droopiness which can further implicate the appearance of asymmetric breasts.

Facial Surgery in California

A Facelift is designed to lift, smooth, firm and reverse the visible signs of facial aging. By correcting sagging facial skin and muscles, removing excess fat, and restoring firmness, a Facelift can create a more youthful, rested, and vibrant appearance. If the signs of aging on your face bother you, an array of non-surgical and surgical treatments including laser and chemical skin resurfacing, injectables and fillers, contour threadlifts, microfat grafting, mini or "MACS" Cheek and Facelift, or a full "SMAS" Facelift, may be the right choice for you. When appropriately selected and applied, facial plastic surgery combined with adjunct treatments can result in a long-lasting, natural, and youthful look. For a Facelift in Beverly Hills consult Dr. Daniel Golshani.

For many people, the neck is the first area to show signs of aging such as weakened neck muscles that cause the appearance of "bands" around the neck. Frequently performed in conjunction with a Mid-Facelift or facial implants, a Neck Lift can improve an aging neck by significantly reducing the appearance of sagging skin under the jaw.

Over time, many patients feel that their eyebrows begin to look droopy, causing them to look sad, depressed, and even angry. Such droopiness or sagging usually occurs in conjunction with other signs of facial aging. Unfortunately, due to hereditary factors and signs of aging, the eyes may not be able to communicate as effectively as we mature. If your upper or lower eyelids have puffy, dropping, or excess skin that make you appear sad or tired, cosmetic eyelid surgery may be right for you.

Life after weight loss surgery

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 15:57:00 +0000

As a leading expert on face, breast and body contouring for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery or massive weight loss, Dr. Hoefflin performs all varieties of body contouring procedures. Patients can be confident that Dr. Hoefflin is dedicated toward patient care and providing his patients with natural and beautiful results. In patients who have lost massive weight, they are frequently left with inelastic and excessive skin that no longer can conform to their desired shape.

Patients that have lost large amounts of weight, either as a result of bariatric surgery or through diet and exercise demonstrate residual excess skin around their thighs, buttocks, and abdomen. In patients who are primarily concerned about their outer thighs and buttocks, Dr. Hoefflin performs lower body lift procedures to improve their appearance. If patient’s concern extends to their abdomen, then a belt lipectomy may be necessary. The result is a re-contouring of one’s tissues, thus restoring a more youthful and attractive appearance.

In cases where an individual has undergone dramatic weight loss, he or she may be left with loose, sagging skin on the upper arms. This is a common, though unfortunately unattractive side effect of significant weight loss. Brachioplasty, or arm lift, can help improve the appearance of the arms by a careful removal of excess skin beneath the arms and a tightening of the flabby tissue. Dr. Hoefflin’s team has extensive experience helping patients after successful weight loss look and feel better in their skin.

Fixing your implant failures in Beverly Hills

noreply@blogger.com (Suzie) — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 20:38:00 +0000

Los Angeles Plastic Surgery Dr. Hoefflin performs breast revision surgery by removing and replacing existing implants with either similar saline implants or converting to a silicone gel or cohesive breast implants. A deflated or ruptured breast implant can be caused by a variety of factors, including: underfilling or overfilling saline implants at the time of the original procedure, capsular contraction, external trauma or excessive external compression. When saline implants rupture, rapid deflation results. While the saline is harmlessly absorbed by the body, the deflated implant creates an aesthetic issue because of the discrepancy between the two breast sizes. However, rupture of silicone gel implants typically require an MRI or ultrasound exams to confirm the diagnosis.

Although it is a rare complication, “bottoming out” occurs when breast implants end up sitting too low on the chest wall and the nipples wind up positioned too high on the breast mound. At any time after surgery, a patient’s implants can move upward, downward, left or right; causing the need for a revision to move them back into the correct position. In general, the larger the implant, the greater the chance it will displace downward in time.

Synmastia is the result of excessive or over-dissection in middle portion of the sternum during her initial breast augmentation procedure. This allows the implants to come in close contact with one another, and can create the appearance of a single breast. Dr. Hoefflin performs complex breast revision surgery by performing a combination of capsulotomy and capsulorraphy techniques.

Visible wrinkling or rippling can occur anywhere on the breast after breast augmentation surgery. It can be caused both by the type of breast implant that is used, as well as the choice of where the implant is placed. Los Angeles plastic surgeon Dr. Hoefflin performs breast implant revision surgery by removing and replacing the implants with the newer silicone gel breast implants. In addition, he exchanges the position or plane to a submuscular or “dual-plane” location.

During your consultation, Dr. Hoefflin will discuss all the potential surgical options and associated benefits and risks associated with each. Using his expertise, he will determine the best advanced surgical technique and type of implant necessary to accomplish your aesthetic goals. You will be provided customized literature that discusses the procedure in detail. Lastly, pre- and post-laser photographs of similar patients will be reviewed with you.

Dr. Hoefflin’s body contouring procedures includes SmartLipo, a revolutionary new method of removing unwanted fat using a laser to liquefy or "melt" the fat away. It is intended for patients who do not have significant amounts of weight to lose, but rather desire sculpting to improve their contour or shape. Smartlipo™ has many advantages over traditional liposuction techniques. Using a carefully calibrated laser, the safe and highly effective method works to tighten or shrink the skin, creating a newly sculpted appearance. It is highly safe and effective, allowing the surgeon to typically remove more fat from a given area with less risk than traditional liposuction.

One of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures performed today, liposuction (also known as "lipoplasty" or "suction lipectomy") sculpts the body by removing unwanted fat from areas around the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, upper arms, chin, cheeks and neck. Although not a substitute for dieting or exercise, liposuction is highly effective in removing stubborn areas of fat that do are unresponsive to typical weight-loss methods. The ideal candidates are patients who are physically healthy with firm, elastic skin, and with realistic goals and expectations.

There are individual and gender differences that must be considered when performing either liposuction or abdominoplasty in male patients. During your consultation with Dr. Hoefflin, he will discuss how each procedure can be tailored to meet your individual needs.

In cases where an individual has undergone dramatic weight loss, he or she may be left with loose, sagging skin on the upper arms. This is a common, though unfortunately unattractive side effect of significant weight loss. Brachioplasty, or arm lift, can help improve the appearance of the arms by a careful removal of excess skin beneath the arms and a tightening of the flabby tissue. Dr. Hoefflin has extensive experience helping patients after successful weight loss look and feel better in their skin.
