Breast surgery in Michigan

Also known as augmentation mammaplasty, breast augmentation involves using implants to fulfill your desire for fuller breasts or to restore breast volume lost after weight reduction or pregnancy. Breast augmentation does not correct severely drooping breasts. If you want your breasts to look fuller and to be lifted due to sagging, a breast lift may be required in conjunction with breast augmentation. Breast lifting can often be done at the same time as your augmentation or may require a separate operation. Your plastic surgeon will assist you in making this decision.
The success and safety of your breast augmentation procedure depends very much on your complete candidness during your consultation. You’ll be asked a number of questions about your health, desires and lifestyle. Your plastic surgeon will also discuss where your procedure will be performed. Breast augmentation surgery may be performed in an accredited office-based surgical center, outpatient ambulatory surgical center or a hospital.
If your breast augmentation is performed on an outpatient basis, be sure to arrange for someone to drive you to and from surgery and to stay with you for at least the first night following surgery.
The decision to have breast augmentation surgery is extremely personal and you’ll have to decide if the benefits will achieve your goals and if the risks and potential complications are acceptable.

Breast Augmentation with a Breast Lift

The breast augmentation breast lift combination procedure has become more commonly requested in recent years. The trick in the decision for the breast augmentation breast lift combination procedure is based on the anatomy of the breasts. Many women have the desire to increase breast size, but may not consider that adding weight to the breasts will produce a greater amount of sagging. For this reason, some breast augmentation candidates require a breast lift. Breast lift procedures address many types of changes that women may desire. The breast lift may be required to lift the breasts, create upper pole fullness in the top portion of the breasts and/or improve the appearance of asymmetrical breasts.

The breast lift is a procedure that may also be performed without a breast augmentation should breast size increase not be a factor in breast augmentation. Plastic surgeons may reposition existing breast tissue to enhance the appearance of breasts in a breast lift procedure. Repositioning of the breast tissue can create more upper pole fullness in the breasts, improve asymmetry and present an enhanced appearance in clothes.

Nose Surgery by Dr. Piro

Rhinoplasty, or surgery to reshape the nose, is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper lip. It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems.

When rhinoplasty is performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, complications are infrequent and usually minor. Nevertheless, there is always a possibility of complications, including infection, nosebleed, or a reaction to the anesthesia. You can reduce your risks by closely following your surgeon's instructions both before and after surgery.

In the days following surgery, when your face is bruised and swollen, it's easy to forget that you will be looking better. In fact, many patients feel depressed for a while after plastic surgery-it's quite normal and understandable.

Still, healing is a slow and gradual process. Some subtle swelling may be present for months, especially in the tip. The final results of rhinoplasty may not be apparent for a year or more.

Dr. Piro’s Liposuction techniques

Fluid Injection, a technique in which a medicated solution is injected into fatty areas before the fat is removed, is commonly used by plastic surgeons today. The fluid — a mixture of intravenous salt solution, lidocaine (a local anesthetic) and epinephrine (a drug that contracts blood vessels) — helps the fat be removed more easily, reduces blood loss and provides anesthesia during and after surgery. Fluid injection also helps to reduce the amount of bruising after surgery.

Large volumes of fluid — sometimes as much as three times the amount of fat to be removed — are injected in the tumescent technique. Tumescent liposuction, typically performed on patients who need only a local anesthetic, usually takes significantly longer than traditional liposuction (sometimes as long as 4 to 5 hours). However, because the injected fluid contains an adequate amount of anesthetic, additional anesthesia may not be necessary.

The super-wet technique is similar to the tumescent technique, except that lesser amounts of fluid are used. Usually the amount of fluid injected is equal to the amount of fat to be removed. This technique often requires IV sedation or general anesthesia and typically takes one to two hours of surgery time.

Ultrasound-Assisted Lipoplasty (UAL). This technique requires the use of a special cannula that produces ultrasonic energy. As it passes through the areas of fat, the energy explodes the walls of the fat cells, liquefying the fat. The fat is then removed with the traditional liposuction technique.

Life after weight loss surgery

As a leading expert on face, breast and body contouring for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery or massive weight loss, Dr. Hoefflin performs all varieties of body contouring procedures. Patients can be confident that Dr. Hoefflin is dedicated toward patient care and providing his patients with natural and beautiful results. In patients who have lost massive weight, they are frequently left with inelastic and excessive skin that no longer can conform to their desired shape.

Patients that have lost large amounts of weight, either as a result of bariatric surgery or through diet and exercise demonstrate residual excess skin around their thighs, buttocks, and abdomen. In patients who are primarily concerned about their outer thighs and buttocks, Dr. Hoefflin performs lower body lift procedures to improve their appearance. If patient’s concern extends to their abdomen, then a belt lipectomy may be necessary. The result is a re-contouring of one’s tissues, thus restoring a more youthful and attractive appearance.

In cases where an individual has undergone dramatic weight loss, he or she may be left with loose, sagging skin on the upper arms. This is a common, though unfortunately unattractive side effect of significant weight loss. Brachioplasty, or arm lift, can help improve the appearance of the arms by a careful removal of excess skin beneath the arms and a tightening of the flabby tissue. Dr. Hoefflin’s team has extensive experience helping patients after successful weight loss look and feel better in their skin.

Contact Dr. Hoefflin's office today for your consultation.

Liposuction in Beverly Hills

The best candidates for liposuction are normal-weight people with firm, elastic skin who have pockets of excess fat in certain areas. You should be physically healthy, psychologically stable and realistic in your expectations. Your age is not a major consideration, but older patients may have diminished skin elasticity and may not achieve the same results as a younger patient with tighter skin.

Improvement will become apparent after about six weeks, when most of the swelling has subsided. After surgery, you may experience some fluid drainage from the incisions. To control swelling and to help your skin better fit its new contours, you may be fitted with a snug elastic garment to wear over the treated area for a few weeks. The Doctor may also prescribe antibiotics to prevent infection.

If your expectations are realistic, you will be very pleased with the results of your procedure. You may find that you are more comfortable in a wide variety of clothes and more at ease with your body. By eating a healthy diet and getting regular exercise, you will be able to maintain your new look for the rest of your life.

Together you will determine what specific procedures will be performed. A neck lift is often performed in conjunction with other procedures such as a face lift and chin augmentation to enhance the balance of the patient's facial features. Once your goals have been determined, you will set a date for this procedure in Santa Monica and will be given instructions about how to prepare.
