Palmer Celebrity Lift

around lunchtime of May 31st, 2006

I am trying to bring you a TV segment on the “Palmer Celebrity Lift”.  It’s a new procedure that is a combination of our mini lift, geometric designed neck lift and Radiesse Injections to shape the cheeks.  It can be done under a Novacaine-like injection without general anesthesia and has little or no recovery time.  […]

12 million Plastic andCosmetic Surgeries were performed last year in the US alone!

in the early evening of May 30th, 2006

 Over 12 million Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Procedures were performed in the US last year!  That’s an increase from the previous year….and no wonder Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery is everywhere these days.  What were the most popular Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Procedures?  Liposuction and Rhinoplasty.  Women still account for almost 3/4’s of all Plastic and Cosmetic […]

Facial Implants (Cheek and Chin)!

in the early evening of May 30th, 2006

 Cheek and Chin Implants require a keen aesthetic eye and experience with shaping the face.  I saw a patient today that wanted a Chin Implant removed that was placed by another surgeon.  From the pre-op pictures provided by the patient….I’m not sure he ever needed the Chin Implant in the first place. 
 I agreed to remove the […]

Breast Augmentation this summer!

mid-afternoon of May 26th, 2006

One of the most common Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Procedures this Spring has been Breast Augmentation.  Women, this time of year, start to think about how they’ll look in swim suits and some of them make the decision to have Breast Augmentation with Breast Implants.  Although, the overall trend is towards somewhat smaller Breast Implants, […]

Open Revision Rhinoplasty

just before lunchtime of May 25th, 2006

 Open Revision Rhinoplasty is one of the most technically difficult Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Procedures.  Often the nasal cartilages have been operated previously to a point that something must be used to regain a normal looking nasal tip.  What I have found works best, in my over 16 years of performing Rhinoplasty Surgery, is the […]

Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty!

 Beverly Hills Revision Rhinoplasty and Primary Rhinoplasty (Nasal Surgery).  Saw 2 young actresses…and no, they didn’t know each other or know the other was ever here….for Rhinoplasty follow up.  One was 1 week after a very difficult Revision Rhinoplasty..the other after a slick procedure for a primary Rhinoplasty.  Both are very sweet…and looked fantastic.  I get […]

Beverly Hills Celebrity Lift!

mid-afternoon of May 18th, 2006

 Beverly Hills remains the hub of Plastic Surgery because of the entertainment industry.  The celebs need to look fantastic and they are no stranger to the knife and suture.  Beverly Hills Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery is a mind set as I go about my daily routine of lift, Nip, Tuck, Fill and Plump.  My latest […]

Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery can’t always give you want you want!

in the early morning of May 17th, 2006

 Turned down 2 Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery cases yesterday!  One patient wanted more Radiesse Injected to sculpt the face….but she had an autoimmmune disease…that’s a real No-No in my book and she already had Radiesse injected elsewhere several times and the shape of her face was aesthetically not right…in my opinion using my “Palmer Beauty Principles”.  […]

 Cheek Implants for Cheek Augmentation case on an out of town patient….just out of the OR!  She, like many out of town patients, has been communicating with Robyn (our patient coordinator) over the past several months.  Patients e-mail us pictures for me to evaluate.  I use my “Palmer Beauty Principles” as a gauge to make […]

Another TV Show!

at around evening time of May 10th, 2006

 I was contacted by a producer for a TV show.  I liked the premise of the show which is for me to use my Palmer Beauty Principles to evaluate the female host of the show.  It should be fun and entertaining..isn’t that what TV is all about? 
 As we were chatting in my office, the producer […]

Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty!

in the early afternoon of May 8th, 2006

 Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty.  I just wrote about out of town patients coming to see us here in Beverly Hills for Revision Rhinoplasty last week.  Did another case this morning.  Had to break the nasal bones, trim down the nasal bridge and refine the nasal tip….with a closed Rhinoplasty technique.  Did some Radiesse to make the […]

Revision Rhinoplasty (nose jobs) take a different approach!

in the early morning of May 5th, 2006

 Revision Rhinoplasties are redo Rhinoplasties (nose jobs) where the nasal surgery is being performed a second time.  In some Revision Rhinoplasty cases, I have performed the 10th nasal surgery.  This thankfully does not happen often as the tissues can be quite difficult to deal with after so many previous surgeries….and that’s one of the reasons […]

Skin Care that really works!

in the early morning of May 4th, 2006

 Winter’s over and thoughts go to being outdoors in nicer weather.  Skin Care is an all-season affair with added dangers, this time of year, from increased sun exposure.  UV exposure is not….your friend.  You may like the golden brown color but your skin is loosing elasticity, tone and uniform color/texture as you bake in the sun.  […]

Radiesse to shape the face…even the nose without Facial Implants or Rhinoplasty!

around lunchtime of May 3rd, 2006

 Radiesse injections can be used to shape the face without the need for facial implants (Cheek, Jaw or Chin Implants).  I’ve even used Radiesse to build up the bridge of the nose and define the nasal tip without Rhinoplasty Surgery. 
 Is this a miracle?  Well, sort of….I have used facial implants to shape the face for […]

 Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Surgery shows are still hot!  Seems people can’t get enough of the Plastic Surgery biz……  My agent, at William Morris, called today with a follow up on our show proposal.  I think you’ll really like this show and what it has to offer.
 I have another idea for what I think would […]

Beverly Hills Facelift and Blepharoplasty!

in the early afternoon of May 1st, 2006

Just stepped out of the OR.  Did a Facelift with Browlift, Blepharoplasty and Radiesse to shape the cheeks.  She’ll look amazing and about 15 years younger.  Radiesse is terrific at shaping the face without the need for facial implants.  This patient traveled to Beverly Hills from out of state and will be here for about […]
