Advantages of Plastic Surgery

Lots of people are availing and undergoing cosmetic surgery nowadays. It is much more widely available nowadays and its cost is also very affordable. Hence, this is no longer a thing of the rich people. Aside from that, it is also really popular because of the advantages of the procedures.
There are at least three (3) common and most popular advantages of undergoing cosmetic surgery. These are related to the physical enhancement, fast procedure as well as long-lasting effects and results.
Cosmetic surgery Enhances Physical Looks
On the one hand, the primary advantage and benefit of cosmetic surgery is that it is being done in order to enhance the physical appearance of your body parts. Unlike the plastic surgery procedures, different cosmetic surgical procedures are commonly intended for vanity and improving physical looks more than functional reasons. According to different reviews and success stories, this is actually considered as the most effective way to get rid of some unwanted marks and scars on your body. For example, if you notice some wrinkles on your forehead already, you can choose to undergo cosmetic surgery in order to resolve it.
Fast Procedures of Cosmetic surgery
On the other hand, another advantage of the cosmetic surgery is that this is actually regarded, not only the best, but also the fastest way to resolve your physical problems. This is because it will only take you several hours in order to complete the procedure and you will enjoy its results already immediately afterwards. This is unlike ordinary beauty products that will take you several weeks and even month in order to notice the results. There are even time when those ordinary products will only let you enjoy the results for couple of day and not permanently.
Long-lasting Effects and Results
Last, but I think not the least important and popular advantage of cosmetic surgery procedures, has something to do with its effects. Well, I am specifically referring to the long-lasting effects of results that you will be able to enjoy with this kind of cosmetic procedure. Unlike the other ordinary products for cosmetic and labeled to enhance the physical looks of your body, this one will let you enjoy almost permanently the effects and results of undergoing it. I have said this because its effects, last a very long period of time, if not permanently. Some procedures are even for a life time.

Breast Implants, Breast Lifts

Breast implants are still overwhelming choice for women, but since 2000 breast lifts are up 70 percent

New statistics released by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) show that breast lift procedures are growing at twice the rate of breast implant surgeries. Since 2000, breast lifts have grown by 70 percent, outpacing implants two-to-one. Breast implants are still by far the most performed cosmetic surgery in women, but lifts are steadily gaining. In 2013, more than 90,000 breast lift procedures were performed by ASPS member surgeons.
“Many women are looking for a youthful breast by using the tissue they already have,” said ASPS President Robert X. Murphy, Jr., MD.
According to the new statistics, women between the ages of 30-54 made up nearly 70 percent of the breast lift procedures performed in 2013.
According to the latest statistics from ASPS, fewer than 53,000 breast lifts were performed in 2000. Last year there were 90,006, an increase of 70 percent since 2000.
Breast augmentation remains the most popular plastic surgery procedure for women. In 2013, there were 290,224 breast augmentation surgeries performed by ASPS member surgeons. That represents a growth of 37% since 2000, just under half the rate of breast lifts.

Botox and Xeomin

What are they?
Denevervating agents (onabotulinumtoxina), available as Botox and Xeomin work by temporarily reducing muscle activity to inhibit wrinkle formation, specifically between-brow lines that resemble the number 11. By decreasing forehead furrowing, they eliminate wrinkles and fine lines that currently exist and also prevent new ones from forming, making them favorites of patients of all ages.
In addition to cosmetic applications, many of which are considered off-label (see below), Botox is also FDA-approved for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). Xeomin is approved to treat abnormal spasms of the eyelids (blepharospasm) in adults who have had prior treatment with Botox. Xeomin is considered a more purified version of botulinum toxin type A than Botox because it does not have any protein additives. Some say this may help lower the risk of allergy to the product, as they believe the allergy risk is associated with these proteins. Xeomin is also the first denervating agent that does not need to be refrigerated before use.
Denervating agents have played a major part in the age of injectables, and doctors continue to find new and novel uses for them, as well as innovative ways to use them in conjunction with fillers.
Uses: 

  • Eliminating wrinkles and lines caused by movement
  • Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
  • Creating wider-looking eyes *
  • Fixing scars *
  • Reducing pore size *
  • Lifting the top of the nose *
  • Lessening a gummy smile *
  • Treating migraines and TMJ *
  • Eliminating neck bands and cleavage wrinkles *
  • Temporarily improving the appearance of frown lines and crow’s-feet
  • Treating chronic migraines, defined as 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 or more hours
(*indicates an off-label use)
Treatments and ResultsJust like injectable fillers, a topical anesthetic may be applied to make treatment more comfortable. Then, over roughly 10 minutes (depending on how many areas are being treated), your doctor will strategically place several injections. 
Although the overall experience is the same as with Botox and Xeomin, the main difference is that Dysport kicks in quicker—the results can usually be seen in a day or two, whereas Botox and Xeomin typically take three to five days. The results of both are believed to last about the same amount of time: on average, three months. However, after a series of injections, Dysport may last up to six months.
Side Effects and RisksYou may be red or bruised at the injection site for up to a few days, and in rare instances, patients have reported mild flu-like symptoms after treatment. 
Please call The Paragon Plastic Surgery and Med Spa for more information on Botox and Xeomin at (817) 473-2120
