ORANGE COUNTY PLASTIC SURGEON
I recently read an article on British patients going to other countries for plastic surgery. The same phenomenon happens here as well. I have seen many patients travel to Mexico, South America, or even Middle East for plastic surgery procedures. I understand the primary reason is the cost. The same procedure in the United States…
Liposuction was initially introduced in the late 1970’s by a French Gynecologist. American Plastic Surgeons visited France and the technique was brought and further refined in the United States. Since this is an effective and safe technique (with current modifications) it has stood the test of time and the results are reproducible. The current technique…
Breast Augmentation is the most common aesthetic surgical procedure performed in the United States, with over 300,000 surgeries annually. The goal of breast augmentation is to enhance the size of the breast and mainly provide fullness to the upper portion of the breast. Currently, there are two types of implant available: saline and silicone. The implant can…
Rhinoplasty (nose surgery) is one of the most challenging, yet satisfying procedures in plastic surgery. Improving the shape of the nose has a dramatic and positive effect on the face. Yet, nasal surgery is not as simple as it seems. Many patients think that just “shave the hump and make my tip a little smaller” is…
Many patients are frustrated by the loose skin/stretch marks and protuberant (“beer belly”) appearance of their abdomen after pregnancy or significant weight loss. One can exercise 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but the loose skin and the weak abdominal muscle will remain. Only plastic surgery can address these issues. The abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)…
Prominent ears, also known as bat ears or dumbo ears are surprisingly common, if you look for it. I have noticed approximately 5% of the population have some form of “ears sticking out”. In fact, an actress in a famous, long running TV sitcom has prominent ears, and she always hides them by covering the…
Since opening my new office in Santa Ana more than a year ago, I have made some interesting observations. There are individuals who equate quality (or lack thereof) with location. I occasionally go to wine tasting events at a major wine store, and the topic of my new office came up. The person who was…
I know, it is a corny title, but I chose this title to illustrate a point. Don’t be fooled by “catchphrases”. Abdominoplasty is the correct medical term for tummy tuck, just as liposuction is the correct medical term for liposculpture. I have even seen the term neck shrink lift used for liposuction of neck. Ah,…
Mommy makeover seems to be the new catch phrase in plastic surgery. But what is it? The essence of mommy makeover is to improve the appearance of the breast and abdomen. Since these two areas are the most affected after a pregnancy, the term mommy makeover was coined for this combination procedure. Regarding the breast surgery…
Breast Augmentation is the most common cosmetic surgery procedure in the United States, with, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, over 300,000 procedures performed annually. Currently, there are two types of implants approved for breast augmentation: saline-filled and silicone gel filled implant. The saline (sterile salt water) implant is empty prior to insertion. The implant…
