Rhinoplasty (Nose Job Surgery) Before and After Photos

Posted on February 8, 2014 by adminpsi

Rhinoplasty (Nose Job Surgery) Before and After Photos – Atlanta

Nose surgery, nose job or rhinoplasty is a procedure performed by a cosmetic surgeon to improve the appearance, shape and size of the nose and make it more proportionate to the face. In some cases, the procedure may be performed to correct functional anomalies in the nose. If the nose has suffered aesthetic or functional abnormality following an injury or a previous surgery, rhinoplasty may help improve the condition. Dr. Paul McCluskey is an experienced plastic surgeon providing rhinoplasty treatment to patients in Atlanta, GA and surrounding areas.

What are Rhinoplasty Before and After Photos?

Before and after photographs refer to the set of pictures that show a patient’s appearance prior to the plastic surgery procedure and after the procedure. These pictures are used by the cosmetic surgeon to explain various aspects of a surgical procedure to a new patient. Rhinoplasty is a highly nuanced procedure, and it can be difficult for a patient to visualize how it will impact the facial appearance, profile, and facial harmony.

See before and after Rhinoplasty photos

With the help of before and after pictures of a previous patient, the surgeon will be able to show the real outcome that can be expected with rhinoplasty. It helps a patient make an informed decision regarding whether to go ahead with rhinoplasty or not. Dr. McCluskey provides rhinoplasty before and after photos to his patients in Atlanta, GA and other areas. As a committed plastic surgeon, his first goal is to educate his patients about the procedure as far as possible so that they understand what rhinoplasty can or cannot do for them.

Realistic Expectations

Rhinoplasty before and after photos can help a new patient understand what kind of changes can be achieved with nose implants, reducing the size of the nasal tip, altering the shape of the nose bridge, and other alterations. However, this is not the only benefit that is achieved with these pictures. Many patients have only a vague idea of what rhinoplasty may be able to achieve in terms of facial aesthetics for them.

Sometimes a patient may misinterpret what the procedure can achieve, and then feel disappointed with the final outcome even when the results are actually very desirable. This situation can be avoided by the cosmetic surgeon with the help of before and after images. The patient can understand exactly what the nose job surgery can or cannot do to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the face. Dr. McCluskey tries to ensure that the latest rhinoplasty before and after photos are made available to his patients in Atlanta GA during the initial consultation.

Online Before and After Photos

Sometimes a plastic surgeon may also make the before and after photos for various procedures, including rhinoplasty, available at the practice website. Digital versions of these pictures can be provided on the website, which are freely accessible by everyone. A potential patient can simply view the pictures online within the comfort and privacy of their home or office, and obtain a better idea about the overall procedure. This can place the patient in a better position to make an informed discussion with the surgeon during the initial consultation.

We know you’ve heard us talk about the absolutely amazing results that our tummy tuck patients receive before, but it’s they’re so great we just can’t help ourselves!

The procedure involves removing excess, sagging skin from the abdomen, tightening the abdominal muscles, and performing liposuction to sculpt the waist. You can see Dr McCluskey explain each step of the procedure here, or you can watch the procedure from Dr McCluskey’s point of view here!

Mini Facelift Before and After Photos

Posted on January 27, 2014 by adminpsi

The mini-lift or mini facelift is my favorite procedure for facial rejuvenation!

Through a small, nearly invisible incision that falls in the crease of the ear I can lift the cheek and jowl, providing dramatic & long-lasting improvement of the jaw line, the chin & sub mental region. Using a small incision beneath the chin I can combine the mini facelift with liposuction of the neck and a neck lift.

What I love about this procedure is that it can be performed under local anesthesia (with mild sedation) in an office setting, the incisions are small and well-hidden, the results (as you can see below) are beautiful & they stand the test of time, and the downtime & recovery are minimal.

Amazing Liposuction Before and After Photo

Posted on January 27, 2014 by adminpsi

If you have seen our video of an abdominal liposuction then you already know the amazing results this relatively simple procedure gives. I performed liposuction of the tummy & waist on this patient. She took it a step further, lost a couple more pounds through diet & exercise, and now she’s ready for the beach! She even wore a bikini bottom for her after photo.

We absolutely love when a procedure helps to inspire a patient to take a proactive stance on their health and body image. Whether it’s helping to shift some problem areas or even just the confidence boost that a patient needs to regain control of their lifestyle, one procedure can be the beginning of a healthier, happier and more confident you.

Exercise After A Tummy Tuck

Posted on January 22, 2014 by adminpsi

Flat tummy, beautifully tapered waist, tight abdominal muscles – these are results that patients enjoy after a tummy tuck. In one operation the excess fat and skin are removed, the 6-pack muscles are tightened, and the love handles (muffin-tops) are sucked away via liposuction. Once they heal, tummy tuck patients are eager to show off their new figures & buy new form-fitting clothes. They’re also very inspired to start exercising to maintain these dramatic results.

What do I tell post-tummy tuck patients about exercise? I want them walking the evening of surgery. I don’t want them just lying in bed and I want family members to help them but also to make them walk. As their body heals and the discomfort improves I want them increasing their activity and within 2-3 weeks after surgery I have no problem with brisk walks, or elliptical machine type exercise (low-impact!). Within 4-6 weeks the tummy tuck patient may resume her typical workout or exercise activities.

The most common exercise-related questions I get relate to situps or crunches. When should patients resume situps after a tummy tuck? Do patients need to do situps after a tummy tuck? Can abdominal exercises hurt or “mess up” a tummy tuck?

Here’s my answer: The patient will see a dramatic difference in her tummy before & after surgery. The entire torso is flatter & more trim after abdominoplasty. In the first few weeks after surgery there is not a need to resume situps or crunches after tummy tuck. Patients may resume these exercises many weeks after surgery without any adverse effects. After a few months performing abdominal exercise will help support and even improve the tummy tuck results.

Otoplasty (Ear Surgery) Before and After Photo

Posted on January 22, 2014 by adminpsi

Sometimes a subtle change is all that is needed to boost a patients confidence. Ear surgery can correct a range of aesthetic issues. The appearance of large ears, not in proportion to the face and prominent ears which protrude too far from the face can both be dramatically improved through a relatively simple office procedure which is performed under local anesthesia Prominent ears can have a huge negative impact on a person’s self esteem – I’ve seen patients go to extreme measures to hide prominent ears. Otoplasty surgery, or ear-pinning, is a safe procedure with beautiful results that patients love to show off.

The procedure involves making a small, well hidden incision behind the ear. The cartilage in the central part of the ear forms a bowl, and part of this cartilage is removed to lessen the protrusion of the ear. Specialized suture techniques are used to then “pin” the ear so that it sits flatter against the head. The incision behind the ear is closed with absorbable sutures and after the procedure the ear is bandaged and a headband is placed to help hold the ear in the pinned-back position while it heals.

Mommy Makeover Cost in Atlanta

Posted on January 21, 2014 by adminpsi

Mommy Makeover Costs

Becoming a mom is certainly a beautiful experience, but the drastic physical changes that come with it are not that flattering. Be it sagging breasts from breast-feeding or unwanted fat around the tummy, the body undergoes noticeable changes post-pregnancy which take away the youthful demeanor of the body. While women earlier, learned to live with these changes as a natural course that the body takes, the advanced surgical procedures available these days have allowed moms to enjoy the best of both worlds!

Common mommy makeover procedures

The range of body contouring surgical procedures offered today can help you bounce back post-pregnancy with as much ease as most celebrities do. Unlike the never-ending grueling weight loss programs, a plastic surgeon can sculpt your body back to its youthful shape real quick. Here are some popular procedures that moms today opt for:

Liposuction: In this procedure, tiny incisions are made in the skin so that a surgical tube can be inserted. Various methods are used to break down the fat cells in this region. Few stubborn fat cells present in the area are physically removed through the hollow tube. This helps in sculpting the body to the desired shape. It can be used to tone down the fat in the abdomen, waist, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck): More commonly referred to as the “tummy tuck”, this procedure involves repairing the muscles that are separated out by stitching them together. It also involves removing excess tissues in the tummy area so as to tighten the skin and give it a smoother and firmer look.

Breast lift: Sagging breasts, stretched areolas and disproportionate breasts are a common occurrence post-pregnancy. A breast lift procedure helps in correcting all these changes. It involves removing the excess tissues and tightening the loose skin to give it a fine contour. The position of the breasts and areolas are lifted during this procedure. Many a times, it is combined with breast implant procedures to add more volume to the breasts.

Breast reduction: A woman’s breasts swell up during pregnancy. While they naturally reduce in size over time in most cases, some of them continue to be oversized. This can cause a lot of discomfort. Breast reduction procedures involve removing the excess fat tissues and tightening the skin. This improves the patient’s skeletal stability, lung function, physical functioning and sleep patterns.

How much does a mommy makeover cost?

The expenses that come with these procedures vary across different facilities. The nature of surgical procedure, plastic surgeon’s experience, nature of the surgical facility, are few of the factors that affect the overall cost. Geographical location can play a major role in determining the cost of the procedure too. The aspects that are to be considered while narrowing down on procedural expenses are:

Cosmetic surgeon fee
Anesthesia fee
Prescribed medication costs
Hospital facility costs
Medical tests fee

Most women feel that the cost of these makeover procedures is a small price to pay to revive their youthful state and happiness.

Exercising With Your New Breast Implants

Posted on January 15, 2014 by adminpsi

After breast augmentation surgery, like any surgery, it’s always important to take it easy and follow your surgeon’s recovery instructions. But, once you are fully recovered, healed, and ready to get back to your work out routine (check with your surgeon about just how long you should wait) what precautions should you take? After all, you could now be jogging with large breasts for the first time in your life!

You’ve probably seen photos of bodybuilders who have undergone breast augmentation so you know they aren’t skipping their workouts! Of course, while you get used to your new assets things are going to feel strange. The extra weight on your chest and the movement of the implants, particularly during arm exercises. Low-impact cardio is a great way to ease back in to exercise while you get used to your new implants.It is important to wait before resuming any chest exercises though, particularly with implants placed sub muscularly the muscle is healing so it is important to treat it as such.

From Dr McCluskey: Many breast augmentation patients are told by their doctors to avoid exercise during the first few weeks after surgery. I actually encourage patients to resume low-impact exercise (walking on treadmill or elliptical) within a few days after surgery. I find that the most active patients feel better, have less pain, recover faster, and resume normal activities faster. That said, I prefer for breast augmentation patients to wait a few weeks before resuming upper body workouts, particularly if they use heavy weights. The pectoral muscles are partially released during breast augmentation surgery and this area needs to heal before strenuous exercise is resumed. So the take-home message is that I want my breast implant patients to get out and walk or do light exercise very soon after surgery, but hold off on upper body weight lifting or pushups for a few weeks.

Facelift Cost Atlanta

Posted on January 14, 2014 by adminpsi

Cost involved and the right candidates for facelifts

A surgical procedure which is carried out to provide the face with a much younger look is known as facelift. Technically, facelift is called rhytidectomy. This sort of cosmetic surgery enhances the shape and size of the face by getting rid of the excess facial skin. Certain kinds of facelift procedures also tighten the underlying tissues. To attain the best result, it is frequently combined with other additional procedures which address the eyes, cheeks, forehead and brows. Research shows that facelifts are quite popular among both women and men.

People who can go for this surgery

A facelift is a procedure that can only be performed through surgery. Facelift surgery is an extremely personalized procedure so you should talk to your cosmetic surgeon to understand how it will change your appearance.

You are a good candidate for a facelift surgery if:

You do not have any physical ailment.
You do not have the habit of smoking.
You have a positive attitude and pragmatic expectations in mind for the improvement of your looks.

How well does it work?

Undergoing a face-lift procedure will definitely make you look younger. You will keep on getting older, but a face-lift will ensure that it does not show on your face. For many people, this may lead to an increase in self-confidence and would reduce the anxiousness of getting older. A face-lift can cut back signs of growing old to a large extent. To achieve the best results, you might want to get a face lift done first and then go for the treatment of your skin. The safety and success of your face-lift operation depends a lot on the experience,skills and past successful surgeries of your plastic surgeon.

Costs of undergoing a facelift

Cost will always be a factor to consider when it comes to cosmetic surgery. Facelift prices can deviate depending on the location and experience of the surgeon. There are plastic surgeons who offer their patient financing plans, so make sure that you check those in detail. Given below are the various types of costs involved in a typical facelift surgery done by an experienced cosmetic surgeon:

Anesthesia fees– It includes the fees of the anesthetics.
Hospital and surgical facility cost- This includes the fees of using the hospital premises for the operation.
Medical tests– The fees of the various tests conducted before the surgery.
Post surgery garments
Prescriptions for medication– The medicines that you need to have to recover from the surgery.
Surgeon’s fee– It contributes to the major part of the fee and varies from surgeon to surgeon.

So, you must be careful and make sure about the authenticity and experience of the surgeon before taking the plunge. You will be able to find a lot of qualified surgeons who are specialist in the area of cosmetic surgery in and around Atlanta.
