As we age gravity causes the eyebrows (brow) to move downwards. We compensate for this by contracting the muscle which raises the eyebrows. Contraction of this muscle causes wrinkle lines across the forehead. Eventually the muscle relaxes and the eyebrows become lower. This typically makes you look slightly sad and tired. It can also increase the fold on the upper eyelid making it difficult to apply makeup.

Brow lift treatments are aimed at elevating the eyebrows. This widens the eyes and makes you look less tired. After surgery people are often asked if they have been on holiday as they look refreshed. The effects are subtle and most people will not be able to pinpoint the exact change in you but will notice that you look fresher.

The eyebrow in females should be gently arched with its’ highest point lying 2/3rds of the way out from the centre. In men the eyebrows are usually flatter and raising them is not usually appropriate as this can make them look slightly surprised.

Brow lifts can be performed with an operation. This procedure is normally carried out by keyhole surgery. Small incisions are made within the hairline and the tissue is gently separated allowing the eyebrows to rise. Most people recover quickly from the procedure and are back at work within 10 days.

More recently injection techniques have been used to lift the eyebrows. Selectively weakening the muscles which pull down the eyebrows will result in them rising. The muscles which pull down the inner part of the eyebrows cause frowning in the centre of the forehead. The muscles which pull down the outer part of the eyebrows cause the crows-feet smile lines which occur on the temple on the side of the eye.

Injections to weaken these muscles can be performed as an outpatient procedure at the Gatehouse Clinic in Northampton. Many people have the treatment during work breaks or at the end of the day. The effects are not immediate with most people noticing a gradual decrease in the frown and crows feet wrinkles a week following treatment. This effect last between 4-6 months and will need to be repeated. Usually after a 3 treatments in a year the muscles relax more permanently and the effect last for longer and longer.

It is important to remember that every bodies face is different and it is often worth having a consultation to assess which treatment is most suitable for you. This starts with a complementary skin analysis and discussion of the treatments available. The Gatehouse Clinic combines the experience of specialist Plastic Surgeons, Nurses and specially trained beauty therapist to ensue you receive the best possible treatment and advice.

Medical advancement will allow for much safer cosmetic surgical procedures; faster recovery can also be expected and you will not have to wait for a longer period of time in order to observe the positive changes when it comes to your appearance. There are a growing number of invasive and even non-invasive treatments available. Many minimally invasive treatments may be performed in the outpatient facility, rather than the ordinary hospital setting. The outpatient facilities can lower the cost of entire cosmetic surgery.

The emphasis on such safer, option-laden Lifestyle Lift is attracting more and more people from various walks of life. In the past, such cosmetic surgery has reached the white female elite demographic but the field is experiencing a growing interest when it comes to the minorities that are interested in the latest revolutionary procedures that can change the way they look in a positive manner and without wasting their time and money.

Another new trend in the current cosmetic surgery involves the genuine combination between various treatments. With such a well developed understanding of the beautiful human body, the cosmetic surgery practices are likely to put an end to the Lifestyle Lift problems because the latest procedures are safer and even more convenient. They can also be comprehensive because gone are the past days of lengthy surgical procedures and difficult recovery periods. There are plenty of cosmetic surgeons are enlisting the treatment plans for the Lifestyle Lift problems; they try to develop the necessary plans that can help every patient to prioritize what he would like to change about his present appearance.

Such treatment plans are likely to incorporate some timeframes ranging from months to several years. The emerging trend can impress every person who is interested in regaining his or her self esteem in no time and without having to pay a fortune. Such highly professional treatment plans in cosmetic surgery are likely to open the doors of communication between you and your doctor.

Still, you have to be perfectly aware that making the right decision to undergo such a cosmetic surgery procedure is to be regarded as an intensely personal decision. You must weigh all the possible medical risks and side effects that may come along because such aspects are involved by every cosmetic procedure and they may come against the personal benefits. People tend to consider having the cosmetic surgery if they are really unhappy with some aspect when it comes to their present appearance. But they have to be aware that the cosmetic surgery is a genuine medical procedure and that their decision should not be taken lightly.

Patients are likely to experience a stronger sense of self esteem and self confidence soon after the successful cosmetic surgery procedure. Actually, it is true that the way a person looks on the outside affects the way that he feels on the inside. Increasing the self confidence is the best thing he can do in order to succeed in his life and such cosmetic procedures can do the job because they may lead to more successes in personal and professional life. But it is highly important for you to try and understand that such a cosmetic surgery is not to be regarded as a sort of miracle panacea for fixing your every problem in personal and professional life. Actually, it is a tool that can help you achieve your most important goals.

Face Lifts are often associated with other procedures, including blepharoplasty (eye lid surgery), otoplasty (reduction of the earlobes), forehead lift (brow lift), neck lift, chin and cheek implants. Minimally invasive procedures that may be accompanied with a face lift are chemical peels or laser treatment for the lips, eyelids and crows feet. These procedures performed simultaneously enhance the results of the face lift.

Dr. Blau utilizes the advancements made in plastic surgery for face lifts to apply his surgical skills to the SMAS fascia and the platysma muscle. This allows for results that do not appear to put tension on the skin, producing more natural post surgical results than offered in the past.

Face lift incisions are located in front or inside of the ears and sometimes, on the back of the ears. The goal is to produce minimal scarring through inconspicuous incision locations and aids for scarring. Every patient heals differently. Therefore, scarring will appear differently among face lift patients.  Face lift patients commonly require neck liposuction. Further treatment to the neck may involve platysmoplasty in which the neck muscle’s fascia is sutured together. This is incorporated with tightening of the SMAS fascia.

Face lifts require serious consideration in the initial consultation. It is important to review the surgeon’s credentials and type of board certification and understand every aspect of the face lift surgery before undergoing the procedure.

When in consult with the Plastic surgeon Dr. Blau will assess the possibilities of what can be done to improve facial lines, wrinkles, jowls and sagging skin. There are alternative procedures to consider in conjunction with facelift surgery to help with the forehead lines, crow’s feet and bags which can not treated with a facelift.

Breast lift, also referred to as mastopexy, is a fairly simple cosmetic procedure. It removes extra fat, skin and tissue to elevate the breasts back on the chest wall for a more natural look. This procedure addresses breast ptosis, which is the sagging or drooping of the breasts. Ptosis of the breasts is a natural occurrence in the aging process of the female body. However, many factors can contribute to the rate in which breast ptosis occurs such as pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Many women from all over the world of different social status are interested in undergoing breast lift procedure to enhance the appearance of their breasts. In New York City, for instance, there are women who are uncomfortable with the thought of introducing foreign materials, such as breast implants, into their bodies. In such cases, a breast lift surgery is more favorable than a breast augmentation procedure. This could be the reason why there has been a surge in the number of patients looking to have a breast lift in New York (NYC).

If you are considering having mastopexy, here are some facts about the procedure that you need to know.

The Pre-Operative Preparations

Breast lift and other breast surgeries may not be as serious as bypass surgery, but it is still a procedure that needs a lot of preparation. Women who opt to have a breast lift procedure must not have any underlying medical conditions. Before the operation, the patient must be able to provide the breast surgeon with a full history of her health. The surgeon will also request various physical examinations and other laboratory tests such as a mammogram. The cosmetic surgeon may adjust the patient’s current medication regime and advice smokers to stop smoking at least eight weeks prior to the operation date. Once the patient and the surgeon have scheduled a date for the surgery, the surgeon will give the patient instructions to follow for the day of the surgery. Instructions for recovery and post operation will also be given by the surgeon. He or she would strongly advice that the patient has enough help during the recovery period.

The Procedure

Breast lift procedures range from minimally traumatic to highly invasive. This ultimately depends on the type of breast lift procedure that is right for the patient, which will be determined by the breast surgeon during consultations. The procedure is performed in a sterile room under general anesthesia. In general, an inverted T or an anchor-shaped incision is made for a full breast lift – a circular cut around the areola and going down from the areola to the crease area. This incision allows the breast surgeon to remove excess fat, tissue and skin, elevate the breasts, and reduce the size of the areola. The incisions are stitched once the procedure is done and the patient will be placed in a tight surgical bra or bandage. In breast surgical terms, a breast lift is a relatively quick operation to perform.

The Post-Operative Precautions

The patient is advised to wear a special bra or a tight bandage immediately after the operation for a couple of days, depending on the instructions of the breast surgeon. After the bandage is removed, the patient will be fitted to a soft support bra, which she will have to wear at all times during recovery. The surgeon will prescribe some pain relievers for any pain or discomfort that the patient may experience post operation. Two weeks after the operation, the patient needs to meet with her surgeon to have the stitches removed and to have her healing evaluation.

The Rights of The Patient

While breast lift is a simple surgery, it is still a major operation and women who wish to go through it should consider only a highly skilled, certified surgeon to perform the operation. Many women in big cities like New York City assume that it is safe to just walk in at any random New York breast clinic for their procedures. They fail to do their research on both the clinic and the surgeons. The best thing to do is to contact the American Board of Plastic Surgery or your local hospital or clinic for referrals. A cosmetic surgeon accredited by the ABPS is certified to be skilled and experienced. While there are still risks of unfavorable results, a certification from the ABPS ensures that the cosmetic surgeon can provide the best surgical outcome possible.

Breast ptosis is the medical term for degeneration of the breast tissue, leading to a hollow, stretched out, elongated or flat appearance.  Depending on the size and shape of the breasts, these changes might be minor or may be extreme, but are always noticeable to the affected woman.  Larger breasts are more prone to complete degeneration of the tissue, leading to an overall downward projection of the entire breast mound.  Smaller breasts might be less affected and the smallest might only suffer ptosis of the nipple/areola complex.  Degenerative breast tissue changes are the result of age and activity, but can be hastened by breast size, genetics, pregnancy, breastfeeding and lifestyle factors.

This ptotic process is normal and is not painful or damaging to the health or function of the breasts.  However, ptosis definitely affects the body image, self worth and inner confidence of many women who see the changes as a defect in their physical bodies.  Ptosis can have wide ranging effects including lack of sexual interest, depression, anxiety, feelings of inferiority, changes in social interactions and even the development of psychosomatic conditions such as gastrointestinal concerns, headaches, back pain and other repressed stress related syndromes.

Ptosis in itself is enraging to the inner self and is insulting to the id.  In general, women are very sensitive to age related bodily changes and some women are absolutely devastated by the cruel alterations enacted by the never ending passage of time.  Ptosis is not any less serious than any other bodily change and might be even more injurious; since the breasts are one of the primary symbols of the female gender identity and help to define every woman as the person she truly is, inside and out.

Breast lift comes in a variety of forms, ranging from minimally traumatic to ultra-invasive.  The goal of every lift is to optimize the aesthetics of the breast by improving the placement of the breast mound, firming the underlying tissue and raising the nipple position.  Overall, these changes lead to a higher, more youthful looking and feeling breast which is pleasing to the eye and hand…

Traditional full breast lift (also called wise pattern or keyhole lift) is typically performed using an anchor incision, which is actually a set of 3 incisions which completely resculpt the breast mound.  This technique is known for being able to create huge changes in breast placement, appearance and feel, but does so at the expense of sometimes noticeable scarring.  A popular and more enlightened technique is the vertical mastopexy (also called lollipop or LeJour lift), which eliminates the large and noticeable inframammary incision from the full lift.  Modified breast lifts come in even less invasive varieties, such as the Benelli lift (also called the donut, concentric or areolar mastopexy) or the least intrusive crescent lift (also called periareolar mastopexy). 

Breast lift may be performed as a stand alone procedure or might be combined with breast augmentation for a total breast rejuvenation surgery.  Using breast implants to enhance the lift technique is ideal for women who have lost a significant amount of natural tissue after breastfeeding or women who simply want to be bigger and anatomically lifted.  The best part about a combined augmentation/mastopexy operation is the surgical synergy enjoyed by the doctor and patient.  Incisions can be used for both procedures and anesthetic and operative risks can be shared; which is always preferred, when compared to 2 individual surgeries.

Deciding on the best breast list procedure for you is a matter of individual tastes and circumstances.  The size and general condition of your breasts will help your cosmetic surgeon to recommend the best technique to meet your needs and expectations.  It is crucial to research all your options carefully so that you understand exactly what you are undertaking and what you should realistically expect from the surgery.  Most important of all, you should choose your surgeon very carefully, since no single factor will influence your final surgical results more than your choice of doctor.  If planned and executed with forethought and understanding, a breast lift can make a huge positive change in any woman’s life.  The physical change might be the most noticeable, but the psycho-emotional effects will undoubtedly be the most valuable…

Any woman who has ptosis, or sagging of the breasts, is a candidate for breast lift. Conditions that contribute to the ptosis of the breasts include:

Aging: As women age, there is a gradual reduction in skin elasticity, as well as the stretching and elongation of the Coopers Ligaments, which are responsible for holding breast tissue up against the chest wall. The breast tissue itself also changes with age from mostly firm, fibrous milk glands to fatty tissue, which is soft and saggy. This change accelerates with menopause, and the gradual reduction of estrogen levels.

Pregnancy and Nursing: enlargement of the breasts during pregnancy, followed by their deflation after the end of breast feeding, also stretches the Coopers Ligaments, reducing fibrous tissue, breast volume and leading to ptosis.

Large Breasts and Implants: The tissue and skin of inherently large breasts, or those that have been augmented with implants, stretch out from the breast weight, resulting in sagging.

Weight Loss: Rapid weight loss or dramatic fluctuations in body weight also cause the skin’s elasticity and breast tissue to decrease.

There are a variety of “litmus” tests to determine if the degree of sagging in your breasts is advanced enough to warrant a procedure. Many lay persons define breast sagging by how far the breast tissue descends on the chest wall. Plastic surgeons, however, define breast sagging based on the position of the nipple in relation to the breast mount or Inframammary Fold.

Degrees of sagging, each defined specifically by plastic surgeons are: Mild Ptosis, where the nipple is at the level of the Inframammary Fold; Moderate Ptosis, where the nipples have dropped below the level of the breast crease, but are still higher than that of most of the breast mount; Advanced Ptosis, where the nipples have dropped below the level of the inframammary fold and are just at the level of the maximum breast projection; and Severe Ptosis, where the nipples have dropped below the level of the inframammary fold, and below the breast mount, so they are pointing to the floor.

Other “tests” for sagging include “The Pencil Test” that defines sagging breasts as those which hold a pencil in place under the breast under-fold. While many women consider some degree of sagging as normal and natural, The Bra Test determines that breasts which fall upon removal of the bra are Ptotic breasts.

Together, you and your plastic surgeon will determine which kind of Breast Lift procedure is best for you. During a Crescent Lift, the cosmetic surgeon removes a crescent-shaped piece of tissue above the areola and restores the tissue to a higher position. This creates a minor lift for patients who have Mild Ptosis. One risk of this technique is a slight egg-shaped areola for patients who have heavier breasts and do not wear good quality supportive bras following surgery.

During Concentric Mastopexy, also known as the Benelli Lift, the plastic surgeon makes circular incisions around the areola, and removes the doughnut-shaped skin between the two incisions. The plastic surgeon then moves the nipple and areola upward and stitches surrounding skin around the areola. The Benelli Lift works best in women with smaller breasts and minimal sagging. A variation of this is the Benelli-Lollipop, which has straight incisions from beneath the areola to the mammary fold, rather than the circular ones. This is considered appropriate for women with medium ptosis.

Anchor-Shaped Mastopexy is the most common, and also the most invasive, Breast Lift procedure. Your cosmetic surgeon will make an incision above your nipple, in the shape of an anchor, with a circle at the top. The nipple is placed in the circle at the top of the “anchor,” forming the shape of the new breast. The lines at the bottom form the lower contour of your breast. The plastic surgeon sutures the skin around the areola, vertically down to the chest, and side to side along the newly created bottom fold.

Sometimes, breast lift is combined with a breast augmentation (with an implant) procedure to restore breasts to a fuller and enhanced appearance. At other times, breast Lift is combined with breast reduction surgery, with the aim of lifting the breasts while reducing their size to a more proportionate one. One alternative to a breast Lift is a nipple lift alone. While this will not raise the breast itself to the fullest extent possible, it has the advantage of leaving a scar only around the upper half of the areola.

Over twenty thousand Americans have suffered a total body lift after massive weight loss. Many people have massive weight loss after surgery, dieting, pregnancy mass. Due to the sudden loss of weight of their body can produce excess skin on the body, which are unattractive to the person.

On the other hand, the excess skin can cause discomfort by producing rashes and infections and the chances are higher if the skin on the patient lack of elasticity. It can also prevent the person from wearing clothes that they like. Much plastic surgery can make post-bariatric surgery and use a variety of different body techniques. They can lift the whole body, sculpture, or remove the skin behind.

Whether it is through bariatric surgery or diet and exercise, weight loss often results in massive areas of loose, excess skin. If you lose a significant number of weight through changes in your eating habits or activities, loss of weight after cosmetic surgery procedures such as lifting a body in May be a good option to remove any excess skin. The choice to undergo body after weight loss is a great way to discover your new slim figure.

There are several steps that you can consider sending after bariatric surgery. For example, many choose to get liposuction, which removes small amounts of adipose tissue. Others get a Tummy Tuck, which removes excess skin, but can strengthen the muscles around the abdomen. This may create a thinner, flatter belly.

Some choose to make an arm or leg lift smooth thighs and arms after the surgery. With one end lift, cosmetic surgery reshapes the ass. Finally, many people choose to have a chest to restore the natural slope of the volume of the chest.

There are several risks and complications that can occur with a body lift. For example, in May you have surgical scars, which are permanent. Usually, these alerts will disappear within eighteen months, but there are people who scar worse than others.

Many patients also experience bleeding during and after surgery, which in extreme cases may require a blood transfusion. Usually, mild cases can be treated by aspiration or drainage of the surface. To reduce the risk of massive bleeding, it should not take blood thinners.

There is also a chance to develop an infection, although most physicians prescribe antibiotics to prevent infections from occurring. There will certainly be some pain and nausea, swelling and bruising. To minimize bruising, patients should wear a support all the time for three weeks. You should also massage the area daily.

Before surgery, be sure to choose a plastic surgeon you can trust. Understand all the risks and side effects before undergoing a plastic surgery procedure.

The cosmetic surgery trends, too, are shifting the focus from one procedure to another. There was a time when the breast used to rule the chart. Recently, it’s the butt. Celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian have boosted the popularity of ‘Brazilian Butt Lift’ procedure to ‘a never seen before’ level.

Reportedly, Cosmetic Harmony, a medical tourism company specializing in cosmetic surgery and travel packages to Columbia, has been witnessing a dramatic increase in clients requesting the ‘Brazilian Butt Lift’ procedure.

“Butt is quickly becoming the most scrutinized body part. Even the prehistory talks about how the attraction of a curvy woman’s rear helped spread the human race. There was a time when breast implants used to be our most common procedure and now the ratio of ‘Brazilian Butt Lift” to ‘Breast implants’ in Cosmetic Harmony is on a 3 to 1 basis. This procedure is performed by injecting the fat which is collected from other areas of the body by liposuction, into the buttocks. The fat is processed and purified before it is re-injected. Interestingly, the procedure also calls for a fairly artistic eye that can carve bodies, and the hands that will know the exact spot to inject the fat for the most satisfying results,” says Anthony Giudice, Cosmetic Harmony Sales Supervisor.

“The Colombian surgeons have been, successfully, performing the procedure for many years for thousands of patients from across the globe. Their success stories, actually, wards off the fear of being put under the inexperienced hands. Though, ‘Brazilian Butt Lift’ procedure is fairly new, it is as common to breast augmentation procedures for Cosmetic Harmony’s surgeons. Hence, our clients get the best lift, the Brazilian Way,” quips Giudice.

Paying attention to how well your bra fits, and selecting a bra that support you well rather than ones that merely look pretty can also go a long way to holding back the effects of time and slow the development of sagging breasts . However, there comes a time where for some women, these treatments and measures are simply not enough, and individuals must either accept their breast shape, or consider a more drastic option.

Provided that we want to reverse these effects of time and gravity enough and are willing to pay for it, we can elect to have a form of cosmetic surgery designed to lift our breasts and visibly return them (almost) to the way the used to be in our teens and twenties. It would seem that as cosmetic surgery is becoming increasingly ’socially acceptable’ and affordable, growing numbers of women in the UK are resorting to the surgeon’s knife and undergoing breast lift surgery every year. If this is a choice you decide to make or at least actively consider, then the next step is perhaps more difficult. Choosing your cosmetic surgeon!

So how can you go about finding an expert cosmetic surgeon?

In an ideal world, the recommendation of a friend who has had breast uplift cosmetic surgery would be a first place to start. Even better would be to ask the recommendation of an expert and qualified medic. However, although many more women are electing to undergo cosmetic surgery few of us may personally know someone who has had breast lift surgery. Furthermore, a great many GPs may be unwilling to make a specific recommendation to a named private cosmetic surgeon. Fortunately there is a way to get past this conundrum, by using a reputable plastic surgery provider such as the Landauer Cosmetic Surgery Group.

In contrast to other plastic surgery providers, Landauer Cosmetic Surgery Group do not use nurse assessors for their free initial consultation, nor are they tied to only a handful of hospitals in a few locations across the UK. When you contact Landauer, you will be offered a free initial telephone consultation with an expert consultant cosmetic surgeon, so that your needs can be discussed in the comfort of your own home. Once your initial consultation has been completed, Landauer will direct you to the best BAPRAS or BAAPS registered cosmetic surgeon in your area, and one who is particularly specialised in carrying out breast

uplift surgery at your nearest private hospital. Landauer do not use clinics as providers, as they do not have the full compliment of services and equipment on hand if it should be needed during your surgery or recovery period. This gives you confidence and peace of mind that you will get the best possible care during your cosmetic surgeryfrom start to finish.
