LIPOSUCTION
Liposuction is the most commonly performed cosmetic procedure worldwide.
Liposuction involves the removal of fat deposits that don't respond
well to dieting and exercise. Liposuction can be performed alone or
in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures.
Who
Is The Best Candidate?
Healthy individuals of all ages, with good skin elasticity and realistic
expectations, make the best candidates for liposcuction.
Note: Liposuction will not cure cellulite.
The
Surgery
Liposuction is performed in our fully equipped surgery center under
intravenous sedation. Small (½ inch) incisions are made near
the treatment area. A thin, hollow tube (cannula) is inserted and attached
to a machine or syringe that creates a vacuum. The cannula is strategically
manipulated under the skin to remove the fatty deposits. The doctor
determines the amount of liposuction needed by feeling and pinching
the skin throughout the surgery.
After
Surgery
Overall results of liposuction will likely be visible within 4-6 weeks,
but the full effect may not be evident for 3-6 months.
Liposuction is one of the most successful procedures in cosmetic surgery
today. Improvements in anesthesia and surgical instrumentation have
made liposuction a popular day surgery. For more information on liposuction,
please contact our office and book a complimentary physician consultation
for your liposuction surgery. You can also visit our website www.yorkvillecosmeticsurgery.com

FOREHEAD
/ BROW LIFT
As
the forehead / brow ages and the skin begins to lose its elasticity,
the upper eyelid and brow regions begin to droop. Patients complain
that they look old, tired, angry and fatigued. The forehead/brow lift
is a surgical procedure designed to correct these problems.
Patients who are healthy and have realistic expectations are good candidates
for forehead / brow lift surgery.
At your initial consultation for forehead / brow lift surgery, the doctor
will review the procedure, incision, anesthesia, pre/post operative
care, risks and results.
The forehead / brow lift surgery is performed at our fully equipped
surgery center under intravenous sedation. The incisions are placed
behind or at the hairline, running from ear to ear across the top of
the head. The muscles of the forehead are then released and the skin
of the forehead is lifted and trimmed. The wound is closed with a fine
stitch and a head bandage is applied for a few days.
Patients are up and mobile the day following forehead/brow lift surgery.
Patients are advised to take 7-10 days off work after a forehead / brow
lift procedure.
Forehead / brow lift surgery can improve the many signs of upper facial
aging and patients appear relaxed, refreshed, younger and more confident.
