Apart from ensuring positive aesthetic outcomes, breast enlargement through breast augmentation surgery can considerably improve the self-confidence and self esteem of women. A number of different procedures are used to aesthetically improve the shape and size of the breasts, to achieve a better-contoured body figure. Approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) in 2006, silicone breast implant is one of the popular procedures that augment the breasts for natural-looking, enhanced results.

Achieve the Desired Aesthetic Results

Silicone breast implants comprise silicone shell filled with silicone gel, which is implanted into the breasts for breast augmentation. Depending upon the needs and preferences of the patients, the silicone breast implants can be placed in a variety of positions, either behind or in front of the chest muscles or behind the breast tissue.

It appears that the global recession is forcing many to give their spending a reshuffle and cut out the things that do not constitute a necessity. This may see many niche sectors suffering as people will inevitably cut back to the essentials, refraining from spending on those little extras that had become the norm before the destabilisation of the finance industry and every sub-sector that is now feeling the knock on effect.

Many will be unable to spend the money on cosmetic surgery operations such as breast enlargement and augmentation, under eye surgery and the well known facelift. Will this end up in a nation of people looking old before there time? This shouldn’t be the case, many of these surgical procedures cost less than the amount you’d spend on say a used car (much less in most cases) or a luxury family holiday and it is certainly an amount of money you can save over a relatively short space of time if you are committed.

All is not lost though it seems, some companies appear to be lowering their prices in a bid to keep the customers coming in. At this time of financial uncertainty this means for those with a fatter than average wallet now is the time to opt for those surgical procedures you’ve been planning.

Plastic surgery
has been growing worldwide. However, Beverly Hills undoubtedly is the most frequently mentioned place when in comes to plastic surgery. Recent television shows have popularized such plastic surgery procedures as Beverly Hills nose surgery, Beverly Hills breast enlargement, Beverly Hills tummy tuck and others. Beverly Hills now has the highest concentration of plastic surgeons. Perhaps in the past primarily rich people and movie stars turned to Beverly Hills for plastic surgery.

Today studies show that most plastic surgery patients are middle class people. Beverly Hills attracts not only Americans but also people from all over the world. Many Europeans find it less expensive to have plastic surgery in America as value of dollar has declined. Plastic surgery and a vacation in the United States has become a popular combination for many Europeans. Typically, a patient will contact a plastic surgeon via email for an internet and/or telephone consultation. The surgeon will review the photographs to formulate a preliminary plan prior to meeting the person in the office. (more…)

Aesthetic Book Survey Results

For you to enjoy your greatest amount of patient satisfaction, it’s imperative you know what your patients want. It would also be helpful to know what they think about you and your staff and how best to set expectations so your patients are happy with their results.

To help you discover the inner workings of the aesthetic patient’s mind, I personally interviewed many aesthetic patients who had had minimally-invasive as well as surgical procedures to enhance their appearance. My results are compiled in my book, Your Aesthetic Practice/What Your Patients Are Saying http://www.cosmeticimagemarketing.com/book.php. I wanted to learn, first-hand what they were looking for when searching for an office and physician to perform cosmetic enhancements. The majority of those interviewed were female with the medium age being 44 years old and they were scattered throughout the US.

My objective was to determine trends and commonalities in the aesthetic patient so here are some of my findings:

- The main reason both genders were considering cosmetic procedures was to improve their looks so they felt better about themselves. So, in essence, they were buying hope. Hope that you would make them look better so they would feel better;

- 90% of the time, the confidence in the physician’s ability and positive staff interaction were more important than price;

If we look at our own naked body in a full length mirror, one thing will immediately come to mind for most of us. We are fat. The fat that we notice is usually not generalised fat distributed over the whole body, but usually over specific areas that we feel do not conform to what we consider the ideal image of our body parts. Thus we have fat cheeks, fat buttocks, fat abdomen, muffin tops (love handles), saddle breeches, fat arms and thick thighs, to name but a few problem areas. These may have been there for years, coming on insidiously and slowly but surely increasing in size with regular indiscriminate high calorie good eating and lack of exercise.

Getting rid of these problem areas, however, is not a simple matter of reversing the process of fat accumulation via dieting and exercise. The major challenge that we face is how to get rid
of the fat that we have accumulated in specific problem areas, fat that has accumulated so
easily with no conscious effort on our part. It is a known problem that when we lose weight, we lose it all over the body, and not just in the specific body parts that bug us such as a big
belly, or big fat buttocks. This would not be so difficult a problem to solve if certain body
parts whose size we wish to maintain did not look so good with that extra fat, whether it was
originally there or whether it came on with a general increase in body fat. The most obvious of these areas is the breast size, and in some cultures, the buttock size. Losing fat here as part of a generalized fat loss program is a definite no-no, as this makes the person feel less attractive to members of the opposite sex.

SmartLipo MPX – the future of laser body sculpting – is the newest advancement in laser assisted liposculpture from Cynosure, a leading developer and manufacturer of a broad array of laser-based aesthetic treatment systems. If you have stubborn fat that remains and seems impossible to remove, even after following a healthy diet and regular exercise programs, the SmartLipo MPX is the best technique to consider.

By combining the benefits of dual wavelengths with MultiPlex technology, this procedure liquefies stubborn fat and tightens skin to accomplish body contouring. It is the MultiPlex technology which enables the blending or sequential firing of two wavelengths for incredible results. The two wavelengths – a 1064 nm wavelength and a 1320 wavelength — can also be used individually, or with MPX mode and each possesses unique characteristics.

Superior Aesthetic Outcomes

SmartLipo MPX uses 20 watts of 1064nm and 12 watts of 1320nm. The 1064nm wavelength is most favorable for skin tightening and 1320 nm wavelength is highly concentrated with minimal scatter, and is better absorbed by water bringing about more efficient destruction of fat cells. The blending of wavelengths promises superior aesthetic outcomes, shortened procedure times, minimal downtime, and a better and faster recovery.
