As the warmer weather quickly returns, many are reminded of this by the increased sweat in their underarms. I am certainly no exception when it comes to this. Many associate Botox or Dysport with a wrinkle reduction treatment on their face. However, there is another treatment that can equally revolutionize the way you feel, particularly the way your underarms feel.
I finally decided to have Botox applied in order to stop the underarm sweating. I tell my patients all the time about the benefits of Botox and Dysport as not only as a relaxer of the lines on the face, but […]
The tummy tuck procedure is one of the few procedures that that enhances both the visual and physical aspects of your stomach. The procedure is designed to create a more visually appealing abdomen, and it accomplishes this by physically tightening the tissues of the abdomen.
The abdominal muscles can become worn and stretched, causing the abdomen to bulge outward. During the tummy tuck procedure, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Troy Pittman will suture the abdominal muscles closer together as a way to tighten the abdominal wall. This will create a tighter abdomen that you can actually feel.

Aging and the effects of gravity can leave you with unwanted lines and wrinkles around your mouth. These wrinkles may have you worrying over what to do about your appearance.
One of the best ways to treat lines around the mouth is by restoring volume to fill them in.
Restylane is an incredibly effective cosmetic dermal filler that can be injected into the area around the mouth to erase wrinkles, rejuvenating the appearance of the face. The procedure is quick, and no downtime is required once treatment is complete.

I’m very proud to be one of the first injectors in the country to offer Juvederm Vollure, the newest addition of dermal fillers. It is FDA approved for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles, such as the nasolabial folds, in adults. The nasolabial folds, also known as “Smile Lines”, can be reduced by adding volume to the cheeks and midface.
Many people have been asking what makes Juvederm Vollure different. Vollure is within the same family as Juvederm Volbella and Voluma and uses Vycross technology. The improved crosslinking of Vycross combines both low and high molecular weight Hyaluronic acids to […]
Many people don’t pay much attention to the appearance of their ears, because the majority of people properly developed ears that look natural and don’t stand out too much. However, some people have malformed or disfigured ears as a result of genetic factors or due to damage done to the tissue of the ear.
Otoplasty provides these individuals with a way to reshape their ears for a more natural appearance. This include resizing and reshaping the ear, as well as adjusting the amount of projection the ear has. Otoplasty can be performed on older individuals and on children as young as […]
The facial plastic surgery landscape is constantly evolving. And in the interest of educating my patients and anyone else who’s interested, here’s small post highlighting 5 trends for facial plastic surgery I’ve noticed recently.
1. Combination Therapies For Facial Rejuvenation
Facial plastic surgeons are becoming experts at combining nonsurgical therapies for facial rejuvenation. This includes the most popular treatment of dermal fillers plus neurotoxins to smooth wrinkles. Other treatments include raising and lifting sagging tissues plus laser skin resurfacing to get rid of excessive hyper-pigmentation. I believe that using combination therapies are the best way to get the most consistent results amongst his […]
Gynecomastia is a medical condition that produces oversized breasts in males. This is a common aesthetic issue among males going through puberty. Males who have an excess amount of body fat in their chest also have oversized breasts, but this issue is significantly different from gynecomastia.
Many men who have excess fat in their chest have found great success through dieting and exercise. This is not the case for males who suffer from gynecomastia. The primary cause of oversized breasts in males with gynecomastia is not excess fat – it is the presence of excess glandular tissue. This tissue must be […]
People seek a revision rhinoplasty for a variety of reasons. In my practice, there are 2 main reasons people come for a revision rhinoplasty consultation.
The top reason is that they have an aesthetic or cosmetic concern from their previous rhinoplasty. The nose is the focal point of the face and one of the first things that someone looks at when first meeting someone or looks at themselves in the mirror. Because of this, it should be no surprise that individuals notice certain irregularities and shadows that they may consider unsatisfactory. In many instances, a revision rhinoplasty can provide a refinement to these areas […]
Breast augmentation is all about giving the patient their ideal breasts. You are the ultimate source of knowledge when it comes to your aesthetic needs. The best way to provide you with beautiful results is to make sure you have control over the key aesthetic aspects of your procedure.
The size, texture, type, and amount of projection your breast implants will have will be discussed and determined during your consultation. There also are multiple options for the incision location for you to choose from, and the benefits of each will be thoroughly explained prior to your surgery. You will also have […]
When it comes to facial rejuvenation, surgery is not your only option. Before you consider something as dramatic or intensive as cosmetic surgery, consider the amazing results that non-surgical facial rejuvenation options can provide.
Botox can be incredibly effective at reducing the presence of fine lines and wrinkles on your face. A facelift can also correct these issues, but if your wrinkles are mild then a facelift may be too extreme an option. Juvederm, Restylane, and Perlane are all excellent fillers for treating those deeper facial lines. Voluma can restore any facial volume you have lost as a result of aging.
