Question: Are there any clinical advantages to Breast Reduction surgery other than simply reducing the size because they look too big for my body?
Answer: Breast Reduction surgery can improve one’s overall appearance AND help alleviate recurring symptoms that women with large breasts often experience.
Some of those include rashes underneath the breasts as well as shoulder, neck and back pain. Deep grooving in the shoulder area can also happen when bra straps dig into the skin. In addition, overly large breasts can cause premature sagging of the skin, causing the nipples to point downward. All of these effects can be corrected, […]

There is nothing as effective as surgery to remove unwanted fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Unfortunately, it can’t stop there. What makes the outcome ‘successful’ longterm is when a patient continues to maintain proper nutrition, daily exercise and adequate sleep. Maintaining one’s diet and workout routine along with surgery will definitely contribute to long-lasting results that all patients (and doctors) want!
What I do is work with my patients pre-surgically and post-surgically to try and identify healthy lifestyles that will help maintain their liposuction results.
These patterns could be
1. Eating the wrong foods (excess of foods that are high in […]
Why is it significant that the FDA approved Sculptra for cosmetic use? What is it & why is it different from a filler?
The good news is that the FDA has now given Sculptra it’s official stamp of approval for cosmetic use based on solid, consistent evidence that it works cosmetically and effectively! Sculptra has been used for the correction of wrinkles and facial aging for years with an FDA approval pending.
This is a long lasting treatment that offers reliable facial volume for flat, deflated cheeks that can lead to a “jowl-y appearance” of the lower face. By using Sculptra in […]
Question: How long does cosmetic surgery last?
Answer: This question comes up frequently in consultations and it should! It is important!
What I tell patients is this:
For many surgeries, the results can last for years, as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle (healthy diet, routine exercise and adequate amounts of sleep).
No matter how good a cosmetic surgeon is, bodies and faces will continue to age. And they will also be exposed to the elements (sun, wind, etc.), not to mention biohazards and carcinogens such as smoke and pollution.
Think of yourself as the owner of an exquisite, intricate very expensive machine. (You […]

Have you heard of the cosmetic surgery tax which was part of the recent Senate Health Reform bill?

However, the bill states that even insurance covered procedures may be taxed! Will our senators and representatives also tax breast reconstruction and the opposite breast for procedures that help […]
