Finding a Plastic Surgeon to provide cosmetic enhancements
should be a process. First you educate yourself about the plastic surgery
procedures you want. Next you have a consultation with a qualified Board
Certified Plastic Surgeon. There are several certifying boards, American
Board of Facial and Plastic Reconstructive Surgery, American Society for
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery,
American Association of Plastic Surgeons. When going for a consultation,
find a surgeon that you feel listens to you. Not all people communicate
the same way. There are several different recognized communication styles.
If you have a different style, and your surgeon doesn't recognize this, then you
may perceive that you are not being heard. Part of the cosmetic process is that
your expectations are heard, and that you hear the reality of what can be done.
Failure to maintain coherent communication styles leaves you feeling like you
don't have a good doctor. This is usually far from the truth, as many Plastic
Surgeons have spent years developing their skills, and they are truly artist
with the human form. They aren't perfect though, and they don't
create perfection. Therefore it is vital for a patient's satisfaction that
they have expressed themselves, been heard, and reciprocally have heard what to
realistically expect from their cosmetic surgery.

What is
BOTOX ® Cosmetic treatment? BOTOX®
Cosmetic is a registered trademark of Allergan. BOTOX ® Cosmetic
injections are utilized to help reduce lines and furrows in the
skin. The solution injected is actually a purified form of
Botulinum Toxin A. BOTOX® Cosmetic
injections work by blocking nerve
terminal release of a neurotransmitter to the muscle. Then the
muscles that normally contract in a certain area underlying a
line, crease or furrow are blocked from action. This
allows the overlying skin to return to its smooth wrinkle-free
state. This is not a permanent effect and needs to be
repeated approximately ever 6 months. Injections need to be
performed by an experience medical professional.

Microdermabrasion has been developed
as a less aggressive treatment and is often performed on people
that can afford the recovery period required from full
dermabrasion procedures. Microdermabrasion is often
referred to as the "lunch time face lift" because of
the tightening and smoothing of the facial skin.
Microdermabrasion is an exfoliation is
accomplished inactive particle or “sand” that is
sprayed against the skin and vacuumed up, with the resulting
particles collected and disposed of. Conditions that can
be treated are keratosis, mild hyperpigmentation, surgical
scars, acne. Situations where the procedure is contraindicated
is in those with herpes simplex, excessive numbers of
small broken blood vessels, severe hyperpigmentation, or open
wounds.
The procedure is not painful, and the procedure creates results
that are similar to a mild sunburn. Moisturizing lotions are
used after the procedure to help reduce dryness.
