Breast implants in San Diego help to make any bathing suit, tank top, or cocktail dress look that much better. Nationally, more and more women are undergoing plastic surgery in order to fulfill their desire to achieve beautifully-shaped breasts. For instance, from 1962 to today, between five and ten million women with less-than-full breasts have undergone breast augmentation in order to achieve a more attractive look according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

As many women are already aware, breast implant surgery in San Diego requires upkeep and implants, and no matter how new or old they are, they need maintenance.

Recently, many women scrambled to talk to their plastic surgeon in San Diego when it was discovered that silicone implants by Poly Implant Prosthese (PIP) had a high case of ruptures. Fortunately, many women who underwent the breast augmentation surgery in San Diego were not likely to have received these types of implants as they were primarily used in Europe.

Nevertheless, most all breast implants need maintenance of some kind – and according to Reuters, a rupture risk is typically low and found in all breast implants. Most women need breast implant revision surgery in San Diego about once every ten years according to U.S. regulators, however, a consultation with a specialized breast implant surgeon is always recommend in order to understand each unique case.

“If a saline-filled implant breaks, its contents are harmlessly absorbed by the body within hours. A definite change in the size of the breast is clearly noticed. The implant may be removed and replaced if desired,” says the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery on its website. “If a silicone implant is used, a rupture may not be immediately obvious.  You may notice that your breasts seem to change shape, feel different, or start to have capsular contracture.  A ruptured silicone implant should be removed and if desired, replaced.”

For women who want to have an overall youthful appearance, earlobe surgery is just the ticket. While many women focus on facial features like crow’s feet, nasal labial folds, and forehead lines, others are realizing that youth is in the details…  earlobes to be exact.

Ear surgery in La Jolla can be corrective procedure sometimes referred to as “pinning back the ears” for men and women who desire a more sleek appearance. But now, earlobe surgery has taken women by storm since the procedure can fix sagging, droopy earlobes – a tell-tale sign of both wisdom and age.

“It is no secret that more women are having what could be called a ‘lobe job’.” BeautyInTheBag.com’s Wendy Lewis recently told The Daily Mail newspaper according to Surgery.org. “Gravity takes its toll on earlobes – they droop like chins and breasts do, and can make you look older.Years of wearing heavy earrings also cause the lobe to get stretched out of shape. An earlobe reduction is a simple [operation] that reshapes the earlobe to a better proportion.”

While the United States is close on its coat tails, the women of the British Kingdom are calling upon their plastic surgeons to perform this much-desired surgery. Some London-based plastic surgery centers are even using injectable fillers in the ears to produce a youthful and sleek look.

“It’s quick, easy and relatively pain-free,” a representative from the clinic told The Daily Mail.

It’s in the details: cosmetic surgeon in La Jolla focuses on the ‘finer things in life’

Procedures like earlobe surgery, wrinkle-erasing, and injectable fillers all contribute to the fine details that matter when assessing youth and beauty. If you’re considering less-invasive procedures, these cosmetic enhancements can make all the difference between a youthful look and a truly radiant appearance.

Liposuction in Riverside can be the answer to achieving a flat stomach

There’s no doubt that a flat stomach is one of the most prized body features for both men and women. Sexy abs can be flaunted in a revealing top, a bikini, or at the gym – and while many want a hard, flat stomach, not all are so lucky to actually have it unless diet, exercise, and/or Riverside plastic surgery are considered. In fact, as Surgery.org reports, very few women over the age of 25 are actually able to achieve the dream of having flat stomachs. But as New York City personal trainer Leandro Carvalho explains, getting flat abs can be “the easiest part of your body to change….much easier than trying to reshape your legs or behind.”

With that in mind, Allure magazine took up Cavalho to the challenge by enlisting staff members to his care in order to achieve the endlessly-sought flat stomach.

One staff member complained of a muffin top – the undesirable fat that can often spill over on the side and the front of a well-meaning pair of jeans. But after spending 25 minutes using a medicine ball two to three times a week for six weeks, she was able to trim off 4 pounds and 2 inches.

Another Allure staff member was put on a rigorous 90 minute routine, three to four times per week. Although she lost 4.5 inches, Carvalho told her to stop eating food favorites like cheese, potatoes, and pasta. The staff member said she will try to accommodate the new diet, but that the exercise routine would likely take a backseat.

An editor who said she was diligent at exercising daily still complained of stomach excess – no flat stomach for her. After starting an exercise program of abs classes and weights, the woman was able to shed off 3 inches and five pounds without the intervention of liposuction or other plastic surgery methods.

When exercise is not enough: liposuction in Riverside

Some women are able to achieve a flat stomach and great results with an exercise program in place and diet modification. But for those who need more help than diet and exercise alone, many women turn to liposuction for the body sculpting results they want.

Learn more about how to achieve a flat tummy with these popular procedures.

Liposuction in Riverside

One of our most popular body contouring procedures is liposuction.  Many women opt for this surgery to remove excess fat in stubborn areas like the abs, legs, and buttocks. SmartLipo is a great alternative for women who want a quicker solution to removing excess fat. However, for more advanced body contouring, some women turn to more advanced procedures in order to achieve the desired look.

Tummy Tuck in Riverside

Abdominoplasty is often referred to as a “tummy tuck” is an advanced surgical procedure that can remove excess fat and sagging skin while gently rearranging the underlying muscle structure. The result is a beautiful, flatter stomach. Many women turn to tummy tuck surgery in San Diego since it can completely transform the way the midsection appears including a reduced appearance of stretch marks.

Plastic surgery blog:Sex and the overweight population

February 2nd, 2012

overweight couple Plastic surgery blog:Sex and the overweight population Few media outlets have dared to cover the subject of obesity and sex; however, a recent CNN news report broached the subject rather tastefully and educationally. According to the article, nearly 34% of American adults are obese, according to the CDC, and many more are overweight. It’s not surprising that people who are carrying extra pounds may find themselves grappling with the effects on their sex lives. It is about more than just the physical act which can be difficult when one or both partners are morbidly obese. The way a person feels about themselves has a lot to do with their perceived sex appeal. The article suggests couples become creative and make a joint effort to focus on the best options for enjoying a healthy and satisfying sex life. Dr. Stuart Kincaid often consults with patients who are slightly overweight after giving birth. These women confide in Dr. Stuart Kincaid and let him know that they feel unattractive because of loose and lax skin on their abdomen and sagging breasts that have lost volume. Along with excess skin there is usually a concern over weight as well. Dr. Stuart Kincaid explains that abdominoplasty will allow him to remove the excess skin, tighten the muscles that bulge after pregnancy, and create a flatter abdomen. Typically he will combine liposuction to contour the sides and the lower back creating a total waist enhancement. For the breast, Dr. Stuart Kincaid will usually recommend a breast augmentation which is sometimes combined with a breast lift to restore fullness in the breast as well as lift the breast to a more aesthetically pleasing position. Provided the patient is healthy, these procedures can be performed in the same surgical procedure. Most patients are thrilled with their results and feel much sexier with their partners after surgery  Become a Fan on Facebook                                    Follow us on Twitter       More on Dr.Kincaid

Plastic surgery blog:Solitude does not have to be loneliness

February 1st, 2012

woman doing yoga2 Plastic surgery blog:Solitude does not have to be loneliness

 

It is often frowned upon when a woman spends too much time alone. If she is single it could be misconstrued as loneliness and she could be perceived as an” old maid”. These are very negative stereotypes and far from the truth. According to a recent Psychology Today article there are very good reasons for women to carve out quiet time in their lives. According to the article among other reasons solitude gives a person the opportunity to reboot their brain and re-energize their body. It also helps people to concentrate and focus once their body and mind is completely rested. Solitude also gives some people the opportunity to find their own voice especially if they spend the majority of their time in group activities. These are only some of the excellent points made in the article, but reiterating the importance of feeling good goes hand-in-hand with what Dr. Stuart Kincaid believes about looking good. Dr. Stuart Kincaid is committed to helping his patients understand the balance between their appearance and the way they feel  as the most effective way to live life enjoyably. Patients who consult with Dr. Stuart Kincaid sometimes are initially nervous and are pleasantly pleased to learn that he embraces not only their concerns and desires but also their feelings and thoughts. This helps Dr. Stuart Kincaid to make better overall plastic surgery recommendations, because understanding the patient is the key to providing patients with well managed expectations. Patients who are considering procedures that are noninvasive such as Sculptra,  and Restylane, as well as those who are considering larger procedures such as facelift, or abdominoplasty are all treated with the utmost respect and consideration for their feelings. Dr. Stuart Kincaid certainly understands the value of a patient who has a well-rounded existence and therefore is likely to have an exceptional plastic surgery experience.

Plastic surgery blog: Board certification, Say What?

January 31st, 2012

doctor photo10 Plastic surgery blog: Board certification, Say What?

Plastic surgery and board certification first came under fire would medical doctors began to perform plastic surgery procedures which were outside of their scope of expertise. Initially explaining to patients the difference between an experienced ASPS board certified plastic surgeon and an MD who called himself a cosmetic surgeon was not very difficult. As the marketplace became more competitive and patients looked for lower cost alternative they became more willing to look the other way if the doctor was not board-certified. If you fast forward to today, many patients treat or certification like the white elephant in the room. If the doctor that they want to use is not board-certified they look the other way or pretend not to know. According to recent industry article in order to receive board certification on one of the 24 boards in the American Board of Medical Specialties (including plastic surgery with ASPS), doctors are required to complete a minimum three-year residency in their chosen specialty, and they must also pass an intensive set of oral and written examinations, according to the New York Times article. These extensive requirements are in stark contrast to rival organization, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (AACS), which is made up of doctors who aren’t board-certified in plastic surgery. Dr. Stuart Kincaid is proud of his ASPS board certification expertise and training. He never takes the seriousness of the accomplishment for granted. Patients considering a wide range of procedures including breast augmentation, facelift and abdominoplasty can rest assured the Dr. Stuart Kincaid comes with among the highest qualifications for plastic surgery. The ASPS not only requires expertise in the field but also requires ongoing training to ensure that their members are in good standing and current on not just trends but also solid scientific material. In this day and age there is little reason for patients to accept surgery from a surgeon who lacks specific training and expertise in plastic surgery.     Become a Fan on Facebook    Follow us on Twitter   More on Dr.Kincaid

Plastic surgery blog:Young women are less likely to notice new pounds

January 30th, 2012

Young woman brushing her hair1 Plastic surgery blog:Young women are less likely to notice new pounds

Most people are familiar with the term the” freshman 15″. This refers to the weight gain that occurs in order for many young women when they go off to college. A new study looked more closely at weight gain and young women and found that the freshman 15 was closer to 3 ½ not 15 pounds. That’s the good news. The bad news is that when women reported weight gain in many cases they underestimated it or did not acknowledge it at all. According to a recent online article  previous studies have found that college students in particular tend to underestimate their weight by 1/2 pound to 3 pounds. But the current study found that a significant number of women in their mid-20s didn’t recognize recent gains of between 4-1/2 and 9 pounds. It’s believed to be the first study to explore the accuracy of self-perception of weight gain. Dr. Stuart Kincaid explains to patients that weight gain can negatively impact their plastic surgery results. This includes patients who have had body contouring procedures such as liposuction or abdominoplasty as well as patients who have had breast augmentation procedures. If there is a significant amount of weight gain it  is possible for the patient’s  body contour to change, and no longer display the amazing results they had prior to the weight gain. After breast augmentation, if there is weight gain there is a chance that the patient may have a component of sagging due to the heaviness of breast tissue. If patients decide to maintain a healthy weight they should maintain the results of their plastic surgery for a lifetime.

Plastic surgery blog:Home births are on the rise

January 27th, 2012

newborn baby girl3 Plastic surgery blog:Home births are on the rise

We’ve all been told there’s no place like home. According to recent Channel 10 news story mothers-to-be appear tofeel the same way. According to the news story home births have been on a steady rise for quite some time. The number of home births in the U.S. jumped by 29% from 2004 to 2009. Although home births are still rare — they account for less than 1% of all births — this is a pretty rapid increase, said Marian MacDorman, statistician at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  Home births are most common among women over the age of 35 who have already had at least one child. The study doesn’t indicate exact reasons as to why there has been an increase; however, many experts believe it is due to increasing hospital cost. Homebirths are all about personal choice .”It’s difficult to have a normal birth in the hospital setting because of the culture of the hospital and interventions that are routine,” Eileen Beard, senior practice advisor for the American College of Nurse-Midwives said. Regardless of where a mother chooses to have her baby there are certain physical changes that the woman will experience that are inevitable. Dr. Stuart Kincaid consults with many women postpartum who are dissatisfied with the overall appearance of their body following childbirth. This is not to say that they are not happy about their decisions to become a mother. The two are not related and some women are made to feel guilty for pursuing plastic surgery after having children. Most women are dissatisfied with their stomach which often has stretch marks due to the increase in weight during pregnancy. Many women are also dissatisfied with the sagging component to their breast and the loss of volume. Dr. Stuart Kincaid typically recommends a breast augmentation combined with breast implants to help return shape and contour to the breast. For the stomach Dr. Stuart Kincaid may recommend abdominoplasty combined with liposuction to achieve better contour and a flatter abdomen for the patient. These procedures are sometimes called a mommy makeover. For healthy patients they can be performed at the same time and the results are to say the very least, enviable. Dr. Stuart Kincaid welcomes mothers to schedule a consultation to determine if the mommy makeover is a solution that makes sense for their specific situation.

How you sleep may determine your need for cosmetic surgery

January 27th, 2012
Capture4 How you sleep may determine your need for cosmetic surgery

Photo Credit: Surgery.org

Did you know that sleeping in a certain position can increase – or reduce, for that matter – fine lines and wrinkles?

It’s quite possibly true. The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is reporting that wrinkles, especially those found around the mouth, can be avoided by improving sleeping habits and the position in which one sleeps. In other words, the way you sleep can determine whether or not you may need plastic surgery in the future.

Experts believe that sleep position contributes most to how wrinkles develop on your face. For instance, if you sleep on your stomach or on your side, you may be pushing your face in ways that can produce wrinkles around your mouth. Over time, those positions can cause permanent wrinkles according to CBS42.

If you’re worried about your sleeping patterns and if you can already see the signs of aging, consider sleeping with a pillow tucked between the knees to avoid rolling around. Also, invest in good bedding material like a high-thread count sheet set, which may help lead to a better rest.

Facial rejuvenation in Riverside

If you’re considering minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures in Riverside, Dr. Kincaid has several options that can be completed in just a few hours. These procedures are just some of the options available. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Kincaid to find out which cosmetic procedure is best for you.

Chemical peels in Riverside

A chemical peel is a great way to rejuvenate facial areas that are not yet affected by deep wrinkles. If you’re just now seeing the affects of fine lines, or are concerned about sun damage or unevenly pigmented skin, a chemical peel will slough off the skin’s top layers, revealing a more youthful skin underneath.

Botox in Riverside

If you have fine lines and wrinkles that need a little more help, consider Botox Cosmetic – a safe way to help introduce a more youthful appearance. Botox is highly sought as a generally safe and easy way to reduce wrinkles while being minimally-invasive.

Juvederm in Riverside

For deeper wrinkles, many men and women opt for injectable fillers. If your sleep patterns have contributed to  deep wrinkles around the mouth, Juvederm is a generally great choice to reduce their appearance, contributing to a smoother and more youthful look.

Dr. Kincaid is a certified plastic surgeon in Riverside who can help you achieve a natural and long-lasting look through minimally-invasive procedures. Schedule a consultation now to determine which procedure is right for you.

Botox competitor “stings” the face cream market

So, what’s more effective – Botox or bee stings?

A new product is hitting the beauty shelves this month said to contain more than 10,000 bee stings – an ingredient that may make some cringe with the very thought. Maunka Doctor, the anti-aging cream that uses bee poison brought on by a sting, is unique — but the larger question is: does it work? The verdict is still out.

Meanwhile, Botox in Temecula is a tried and true method that is tested and approved by the Federal Drug administration as a safe cosmetic treatment. But the cream, while it has its share of fans, makes no such promise despite the buzz its garnered in the press recently. But according to the Huffington Post,  sales for the bee sting cream are up 3,000 percent, being dubbed “nature’s alternative to Botox.”

Few cosmetic beauty creams can stand up to Botox, however. And other injectables like Juvederm, Restalyne, and Sculptra – generally all of which provide long-lasting, natural results without the risk of the “buy and try” method – are also popular choices for men and women looking to reduce fine lines and wrinkles using a minimally-invasive approach.

As Surgery.org is reporting, Botulinum Toxin type A is the primary ingredient used in the Botox injectable. This primary ingredient is used to block nerve signals, thereby reducing activity in the facial muscles that often produce wrinkles. That’s why so many men and women turn to the proven results of Botox Cosmetic.
