Breast Augmentation & Lift

(Before) (After)

One of the most common reasons for a breast augmentation is the sagginess that accompanies child birth. If you desire higher, firmer breasts the combination of a lift and breast implants Florida will help you achieve it. While in other states, this procedure can increase the risk of scarring due to the stretching of skin due to the implant and the tightening of skin due to the lift, your Boca Raton plastic surgeon may be able to reduce this with the innovative adjustable implant.

This technique uses a saline gel solution that is added to the breast over the course of 5 – 10 days after the operation. Saline is added through an injection port underneath the breast, which is easily removed via a small incision whenever the desired result is achieved. This allows you to choose the size and shape that you want your breast to be. The addition of more saline solution over a longer period of time allows for the breast skin to relax and stretch gradually, increasing natural appearance and symmetry.

If you are thinking about breast implants Florida and are worried about possible discomfort and scarring, don’t be. Adjustable breast implants are a way to improve the look and feel of your breasts after an augmentation and lift.

What to Expect After Breast Implants Florida


If you’re looking for breast implants Florida, and you have decided on a Boca Raton plastic surgeon, there are a few things you should know about your recovery time.

During the first day to two, you will experience a lot of pain and swelling. It’s best to have a close friend or family member by your side to aide you.

Your breasts will be very sensitive for the first few weeks after surgery. It’s important not to rush recovery as this can cause long lasting harm and diminish the results you finally expect to see. Physical activity and exercise can be resumed about a month after the procedure.

For the first six weeks, scars will remain firm and pink. While they will become less and less prominent, they will never leave completely. Depending on the augmentation, the scars will not be very noticeable, but be sure to follow the exact instructions of your Boca Raton plastic surgeon for rehabilitation.

For women after the age of 40, yearly mammograms are a good idea. Tell your doctor before the visit so that she can use special techniques to get more accurate readings.

Don’t worry too much about the process. When you are fully healed, you will have the extra confidence that made you decide to go through the operation. Good luck!

Thinking Rhinoplasty? See Your Boca Raton Plastic Surgeon



Rhinoplasties often get a bad rap due to the extreme changes we see in celebrity’s noses. But the nose job can also be much less dramatic and offer very pleasing results. Usually nose jobs are good if you feel like your nose is crooked, too big, or bumpy. But everyone’s nose is different and yours may provide character. If you’re laughing and shaking your head, then sure, it might be time to see your Boca Raton plastic surgeon.

If you feel like your confidence is lower because of your nose, and this is more than just an occasional sentiment, rhinoplasty is probably a good decision. The key to a successful nose job, however, is not to make the change too dramatic (think the Michael Jackson effect). You want to consult your Boca Raton plastic surgeon and ask how he thinks you could benefit from the procedure.

The final result can make you look like a different person. Most importantly, it will make you feel better and more confident with regard to your looks and your facial proportions, increasing the aesthetic harmony of your face. All of this in turn affects how you carry and present yourself, which is really the truest measure of beauty.

Sick and Tired of Looking Sick and Tired? Call Your Boca Raton Plastic Surgeon

My grandmother used to say that the eyes are the window to the soul. Whether you feel that way or not, eyes are definitely one of our best features. Our eyes and how they look are important to us. Look at all the makeup products, dedicated strictly to enhancing your eyes.

They’re one of the first things you notice about someone when you’re speaking to them, and one of the first things we begin to feel self-conscious about when we start to age.

If you’re unhappy with how your eyes look, you may want to talk to your Boca Raton plastic surgeon about Blepharoplasty.

Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery can be done on the upper or lower lids.

Upper eyelid surgery, involves removing the excess skin, fat and muscle that causes fullness in the upper eyelids, and in turn, that tired heavy-eyed look. Often paired with a brow lift, this surgery is a great way to look more youthful and energetic.

Lower lid surgery can involve laser surgery to correct fine lines, fat injections to correct hollowness of your lower lids, or even a cheek elevation.

If these sound like plastic surgery options you’re interested in, go to your Boca Raton plastic surgeon and see what he suggests would work best for you.
