Importance of consultation:

The only approach to get the outcome you desire is by scheduling a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon. The first consultation is when a rapport is built between a doctor & the patient.

At
the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, we treat you with the highest degree of professionalism & care, from your initial consultation to your entire surgical experience. During the course of your consultations, veteran doctors converse your apprehensions, priorities and motivations for pursuing plastic surgery.

At our advanced surgical institute, we believe that pre and post-operative drawings and photographs can be very beneficial for the patient to envisage some of the concepts the doctor is trying to exemplify. These drawings also help to answer all your queries regarding the surgery. Lucid and brief, written estimate for surgical costs and financial matters will be discussed during these consultations. During consultations, medical aspects of the plastic surgery procedure desired, the various techniques and possible complications are then discussed.

At
the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, we understand that every individual requires a different approach and each patient is of utmost importance in cosmetic art’s attempt to create a favorable aesthetic result.

Our experienced plastic surgeons have successfully carried out rhinoplasty, breast reduction, tummy tucks, nose lifts, breast augmentation and face lifts at our surgical centers in Beverly Hills & Los Angeles.

Men and cosmetology:

Once considered a women’s forte, now the relation between men and cosmetology has become official.

Though 87 percent of all cosmetic surgery patients are women, 1.2 million procedures were performed on men in 2004, which is 16 percent increase since 2000, according to a research last year.

Men are getting increasingly conscious about their health & this has led to an escalating increase in cosmetic surgery to bring out the changes desired.

The top five male cosmetic surgeries in 2004 were nose reshaping, hair transplantation, eyelid surgery, liposuction and breast reduction. When it comes to minimally invasive procedures, men - like women - choose Botox injections, as well as chemical peels, collagen injections and microdermabrasion.

While the stability of cosmetic surgery lures many men to enrich their image, offering them a fresh look that may benefit their lifestyle and meet their goals.

It is the craving to retain a juvenile look in today's spirited work world that coerces many men to the Plastic Surgery Institute of California at Beverly Hills & Los Angeles, under the advice and guidance of experts in the field of cosmetology.

Botox & Men:

Botox is a simple & non-surgical method used to reduce lines over the face.

Botox, the brand name for botulinum toxin type A, was the most common non surgical cosmetic procedure for men in 2005 and 2006, according to a recent research. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Botox is used to paralyze some of the muscles of facial expression, which results in less obvious lines and wrinkles. Botox treatments are mostly used in the area between the eyebrows to reduce frowning on the sides of the lower eyelids, to reduce crow's feet, the depressors of the lower lip, and the neck muscle bands.

Men tend to be very private when they have any kind of cosmetic work done. Botox is a swift and speedy process, without any divulging signs. Botox demands new treatments every 4 to 6 months, before the earlier injection results fade out.

With more men becoming conscious about their health, Botox is just an extension of health and wellness.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, Botox is a result of sincere dedication combined with expert, to produce the best results for a satisfying experience to our clients.

CONNOISSEURS OF SURGERY:

Plastic surgery is the knack of the connoisseurs of plastic surgery.

Prices for plastic surgery have dropped down terrifically & the easy access to surgery has increased the no. of people opting for plastic surgery significantly. However one must be very careful while choosing the surgeon and the place for surgery.

There are a lot of local surgeons available, who are ever-ready to do a surgery for bargain basement priced but that is because they are not skilled, have no gradation, no proper devices and equipment and will never be able to compensate for the harm, if any caused to you during surgery, which is the case most often.

Research done on 362 patients, including 61 patients (17 percent) who were taking antidepressants at the time of their surgery showed a significant drop 31 percent, or down to 42 patients, six months after surgery. 98% of patients believed that plastic surgery had distinctly enhanced their self-esteem.

Men under the knife:

Pectoral implants for men refer to the procedure to augment the form and size of the pectoral muscles, created by the results of heavy pectoral exercises. Pectoral implants procedure gives men an option to visually augment an area of the body through surgery when other alternatives fail.

Men who strive exercising, but cannot achieve the desired results often turn to Pectoral implant surgery as an alternative. The surgery can give the existing muscles a toned, enhanced look. For patients with congenital defects or loss of muscle in an accident or injury, the pectoral implant procedure can often reproduce a natural, even and symmetrical chest area.

Pectoral implant surgery usually takes between one and two hours to complete. Doctors most often begin pectoral implant surgery by making a small incision in the armpit, and then insert the implant endoscopically. After incision, the surgeon places the implants under the pectoral muscle. The incisions are then sutured and the surgery is complete. The implants are held in place by the overlying chest muscle or by sutures that are temporarily visible through the skin. A circular elastic bandage is placed around the chest for about one week, and then physical exercise is permitted progressively.

Pectoral implants can help to build aplomb in individuals who once were mortified by their facade.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, under the supervision of a skilled plastic surgeon, result is the athletic, natural appearance of a balanced torso.
