Nip This Tuck That

Beverly Hills is, has and always will be a travel destination for people from all over the world who are seeking to improve their appearance with Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery. here are the main reasons why:

Beverly Hills remains the entertainment capital of the world and someon has to keep all those beautiful people at their absolute best….Beverly Hills Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeons.

Because the entertainment industry is so aesthetically demanding, the level of skill and expertise, in my opinion, of the Beverly Hills Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon is above all others. I had a practice in London for about 8 years and I felt my level of skill and training were hands and shoulders above my british counter parts and I believe the same about others countries.

Beverly Hills Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeons perform many Rhinoplasty (nasal surgery, nose jobs), Belpharoplasty (Eyelifts, Eyelid Surgery), Brow Lifts, face Lifts, Neck Lifts, Cheek Implants, Chin Implants, Lip Augmentation, Breast Augmentation (Breast Implants Saline and Silicone), Tummy Tucks, Liposuction, Otoplasty (ear re-shaping), Botox Injections, Radiesse Injections, Perlane Injections, Restylane, Juvederm and IPL skin treatments….so they are not only highly trained but have the experience as well.

The recent change in exchange rates have made it a bit more costly to come here to beverly Hills for your plastic and cosmetic surgery however, the cost still remains a bargain if you look at the comparison costs for anesthesia and operating room expenses that often run between 5 to 10 times higher in the UK and other countries when compared to Beverly Hills. That’s because here in beverly Hills, we do our plastic and cosmetic surgery in our own accredited surgical facilities not in hospitals like plastic surgeons do in other countries. This allows us to keep costs lower. Remember this, paying the same or a bit more for the best is always better than having to pay for a second or third plastic and cosmetic surgery to correct the first. The celebrites seeking plastic and cosmetic surgery know where the world’s best plastic and cosmetic surgeons are…right here in Beverly Hills.

A newly relased study found that 50% of women carry a gene that makes caffeine able to decrease the size of the breasts and also lower the risk of developing breast cancer. Read the full article :

I know the trend continues towards women seeking Breast Augmentation but in either case this is an interesting article. if you are interested in Breast Implants to increase the size of your breasts, there is a 1 in 2 chance that you carry the gene mentioned. In that case, you should consider avoiding 3 cups of coffee a day and other potent sources of caffeine.

We perform Rhinoplasty and revision Rhinoplasty and have done so in our beverly Hills practice and in our London practice (1994-2000). After almost 2 decades of performing Rhinoplasty, I find it still to be the most challenging aesthetically and technically difficult plastic and cosmetic surgery procedures…not Face Lifts, Neck Lifts, Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty), Browlifts, Cheek Implants, Chin Implants, Hair Replacement, Breast Augmentation, Lip Augmentation, Tummy Tucks, Liposuction, Botox Injections, Radiesse, Juvederm, Micrdodermabrasion, Restylane or IPL treatments . Nasal Surgery is the most difficult. The Celebrities seeking plastic and cosmetic surgery know the best plastic and cosmetic surgeons are in Beverly Hills and know you know their secret. The following is a testimonial from a happy Rhinoplasty patient:

I recently had Dr. Palmer do some work on my nose and I couldn’t have been happier about the result. I have never really been happy with my nose. There were several things that bothered me when I would see pictures of myself or as an actor on film. But I was too embarrassed with the idea of doing something about it and also didn’t want to drastically change my appearance.

Our “Celebrity Lift” is gaining more and more popularity worldwide as the next generation of face lift procedures. The Celebrity Lift is a minimum incision face and neck lift that uses small well-hidden incisions, limited but highly effective tissue dissection and muscle tightening coupled with an aesthetic (cheeks and nasolabial fold) three dimensional sculpting. The result is a natural, youthful more feminine or masculine (depending on gender) version of your self all within about 90 minutes with or without anesthesia. There are no stitches to remove and many of our patients return home after several days back to Paris, London, Madris, Zurick, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, China and all parts from around the world.

Those of you that are interested in feather lifts, thread lifts, prong lift, suture lifts, mini face lifts, full face lifts or in making yourself look more youthful and attractive, you should learn more about our “Celebrity Lift”.

If you have been paying attention to the news lately, you may have seen some disturbing photos of movie stars whos faces looked distorted and certainly not more attractive after their face lifts. I suspect these types of face lifts were sub periosteal lifts (mid face lifts) that promise no incision on the face but in my opinion cause an un-natural and aesthetically displeasing distortion to the face, so what’s the point. The corners of the mouth and the eyes are pulled to the point of being hysterical, but I’m sure it’s not amusing to the poor people whos face appears distorted. So beware of face lifts promising no incisions on the face. In my opinion, technology is not currently advanced enough to allow for 2, 3, 4 inches of skin to be removed from the face and or neck without a facial incision…which by the way with our “Celbrity Lift” is hidden well within the contours of the ear.

Second to popularity behind the “Celebrity Lift” are facial shaping techniques that include:

Radiesse or Perlane to shape the cheeks, chin and jawline. Read more here:

Cheek Implants, Chin Implants that permanently augment and shape the face. Read more here:

Lip Augmentation using Alloderm which last about 7 years and produces significant increase in lip volume through a simple procedure.

Soft tissue fillers to plump up the borders of the lips and fill in the nasolabial folds using Restylane or Juvederm.

Breast Augmentation to fill out and shape the breasts using saline or silicone breast implants with or without breast lifting.

Abdominoplasty or Tummy Tucks remain popular for women who have had children and want to regain the tone and flat abdomen they had in youth.

Rhinoplasty, Closed Rhinoplasty, Open Rhinoplasty and revision Rhinoplasty remains one of our most popular plastic and cosmetic surgery procedure with more questions posted here on this blog than any other plastic surgery procedure. Most likely because we’ve performed Rhinoplasty and complicated Revision Rhinoplasty surgery for over 20 years, so we know what’s what.

Eyelifts, Botox Injections, Liposuction, Otoplasty (ear re-shaping), Browlifts, arm, thigh and buttock lifts are more and more poular each year as people search out ways to re-shape their face and body. Now you know what the celebrities and the rich and famous have known for years as they seek out the best of the best plastic and cosmetic surgeons here in Beverly Hills.

Because we have always had an international clientele, we offer the convenience of e-mailing us photos of the area you wish to improve, the face, nose, breasts etc. We review the photos and will respond via e-mail. If you would like further discussion, we offer a telephone consultation where you can discuss my specific recommendations. Call the office at 310-652-9583 to schedule. We of course encourage scheduling in person consultations

The “Celebrity Lift” continues to gain popularity because of what it isn’t.  It isn’t a large incision like the traditional Face Lift Surgeries.  It isn’t the large amount of tissue dissection that occurs with traditional Face Lifts or some of the so-called non-invasive mini lifts that go through incisions inside the mouth and scalp dissecting the entire midface off the facial bones which is a very large dissection indeed.  It isn’t the swelling, bruising and discomfort that many other types of face lifts and Mini face lifts can create.  No, on the contrary,  The “Celebrity Lift” is designed to have limited incisions, limited but highly focused and effective tissue dissection (including the muscle layer) and because of these two factors, the “Celebrity Lift” has a very rapid recovery.  Many of our patients fly home to New York, Chicago, Miami, Houston, Dallas, Sand Diego or to Milan, Florence, Lndon, Paris, Istanbul, Dubai, and all over the world in a matter of days…not weeks.

I like to think of the Clebrity Lift as a way for my patients to look 10 years younger in 90 minutes or less without anesthesia…although that is certainly still an option at our fully accredited surgery center where we perform Rhinoplasty, revision Rhinoplasty, Face Lifts, Eyelifts (Blepharoplasty), cheek implants, chin implants, hair transplants, botox injections, soft tissue fillers like radiesse, Perlane, Restylane and Juvederm, Lip Augmentation, Brow lifts, Breast Augmentation, Breast Lifts, Tummy Tucks, Liposuction, skincare and skin resurfacing using chemical peels.
