Ultherapy + Botox + Fillers = Non-Invasive Facelift!

Is a facelift too invasive for you but you would still like to experience dramatic results that you thought only a fountain of youth could acheive? Here at The Paragon Plastic Surgery & Medspa, you can receive a combination of Ultherapy and injectable wrinkle/filler treatments, such as Botox, Radiesse, or Juvederm, to create a fresh, vibrant new you. These treatments all offer a different course of action in providing a more youthful look for our patients, but when combined, they work synergistically to create a harmonious result that both works on a soft tissue and muscular level.

Before and After Botox & Juvederm Voluma


Botox, for example, combats wrinkles on a muscular level by minimizing muscle contraction and relaxing hyperactive muscles. Alternately, filler is used to add volume to designated areas on the face while Ultherapy works on a tissue-level to stimulate collagen, lifting and tightening the skin as a result. As you can see, this combination of preventing the muscle contraction that causes wrinkles with Botox, adding volume with Filler, and tightening the skin with Ultherapy, have the power to create a balanced and complete look that would not be achieved from just doing one treatment by itself.

Ultherapy - Face


How long you should wait in between each treatment, and in what order they should be done, is an opinion that varies from doctor to doctor. At our own Paragon Plastic Surgery & Medspa, Dr. Mark Bishara recommends waiting about two weeks after Ultherapy to receive any injections. This short wait time will give any swelling that may happen as a result of Ultherapy time to settle so that how much filler/Botox needs to be used can be determined. This incredible combination of treatments yields fabulous results that can be yours! Call us now to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mark Bishara to discuss this as an option for you.

“Knowing the difference between Botox and Xeomin”

Xeomin is taking on the Botox world with being the new neoromodultor out on the market today.   Xeomin is FDA approved in treatment for the glabellar lines, it is consider the next generation of neurotoxin.  Here at Paragon Plastic Surgery we off both Botox and Xeomin to our patients.
Getting down to knowing what exactly Xeomin and Botox consist of:
Xeomin has the same parent molecule as Botox which is the oncobotulinum toxin A, but Xeomin is manufacture in a way that the product is more purified. Unlike Botox, Xeomin does not have a preservative protein. Once Botox is injected, the botulinum molecule beginning freeing itself from the preservative protein before its free to bond with the muscles. Once bonded the muscle begins to relax then causing the wrinkle to fade away. Xeomin does not have preservative protein making it immediately available to the muscle receptors, binding immediately with reducing wrinkles at a steady and fast pace.
Botox and Xeomin have been reported to have a different feeling to each other. Xeomin has a much lighter feel and more natural than botox. Xeomin you can still maintain a little bit of motion in the facial features and eyebrows. Botox can be a bit stronger sometimes causing the frozen look, limiting muscle movement to a greater degree.
At Paragon Plastic Surgery and Med spa, Dr. Mark A Bishara has options to fit anyone desired results!   For patients that would like a little to no movement we would recommend Botox. It will have a feeling of a heavy sensation that some patients desired.  If you want a more natural movement with facial function with limiting the facial lines than Xeomin will be a great choice!
Botox and Xeomin both a safe for the face area, commonly utilized in the forehead, crows fee, around the mouth and additional around the next. Bruising usually doesn’t happen but we do provide arnica for the swelling and bruising if it does occur.

FILLER UP! with RADIESSE

BEFORE

Dear Friends,
As we age our skin tends to lose natural support structures that keep our skin supple and youthful. Collagen and elastin deplete within the skin, which causes unwanted wrinkles and creases. Lets talk a little bit about Radiesse, Radiesse is a wrinkle filler used to plump the skin. Radiesse filler is injected under the skin adding volume immediately. One great benefit of Radiesse is that it continues to stimulate your body’s own natural collagen over time. Results when using Radiesse have shown to last a year or more in many patients.  As with any injection while doing a Radiesse treatment, the injections can be a bit uncomfortable. Luckily, Radiesse is FDA approved to be mixed lidocaine to help reduce any discomfort. Radiesse also provides results with high patient satisfaction. When opting to use Radiesse the patient should inform Dr. Bishara about all medications they are taking. Blood thinners such as aspirin or any other medication that can interfere with the clotting of the blood can make it more likely to bruise or have more bleeding at the injection site. Radiesse is a viable option to help provide a long lasting natural look while smoothing wrinkles immediately.
Respectfully yours,
Mark A Bishara, M.D., P.A. Medical Director

Fat Transfer

 
126ac9f6149081eb0e97c2e939eaad52
Many of us have jokingly made the comment, “if only I could transfer this fat to another part of my body.” Well, you can! Many plastic surgeons like Dr. Mark A. Bishara have performed many liposuction with fat transfer procedures. The procedure is safe and provides natural looking results.
 

Who should consider a fat transfer?

 
According to smartbeautyguide.com, people who consider getting a fat transfer are patients who have facial areas that appear creased or sunken, people that want more permanent correction than what fillers provide, and people that would like to do body contouring and breast reconstruction. The most popular fat transfer procedure performed is the buttock augmentation because more and more people want to have a rounder and fuller buttock.
 

How to know if you are a good candidate

 
The first step for this procedure would be to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mark A. Bishara. During your consultation, you and Dr. Bishara will talk about what your goals are and he will evaluate and provide you with different options. Paragon Plastic Surgery & Med Spa will use different machines, such as the Vectra, which is a 3D imaging device that helps give you an understanding as to what your results will look like after the procedure.
 

How its done…

 
The fat being transferred is taken from areas such as the outer thighs, abdomen and flanks. Once marking the area, the fat will be taken from the area on your body using a cannula. Once the fat has been extracted, it goes through the purification process where the fat cells are transferred into small syringes. The next step will be the preparation of the area where the fat will be transferred. Using a needle or a cannula, Dr. Mark A. Bishara will then begin inserting the fatty tissues. The same process is repeated until the desired shape has been achieved.
 

After the procedure

 
After the procedure, swelling and bruising are common during the first week. On week 2, you will still have some swelling but bruising should start going away. Following the third week, you will notice that everything will start look normal. Instructions about drains and other symptoms will be reviewed with you after the procedure and written instructions will be provided as well. Following recovery, you may notice tiny scars that will fade with time but sometimes they are not visible.
