The Cheeks can be augmented and their shape imroved aesthetically by using Cheek Implants ( I prefer soft silastic ones…no screws or fixation sutures) or with various materials that are injected into the skin over the cheek area. Of the latter, I prefeer Radiesse because I have found it to highly predictable and effective in […]

Aesthetic medicine I define as the business of making people more attractive and business is booming in this multi-billion dollar industry. In the US alone, last […]
Rhinoplasty remains one of the most commonly performed plastic and cosmetic surgery procedure with hundreds of thousands performed each year in the US alone. Such a common plastic surgery procedure, so why are there soo many unanswered questions about Rhinoplasty before and after the surgery? Truth is, I’m not sure. I’ve been performing Rhinoplasty and […]

If you want to be happy after your plastic and cosmetic surgery, you may need to check your unrealistic expectations at the door.
This business is rife with patients that have unrealistic expectations. This makes them, in my opinion, poor surgical candidates. What’s the problem? Probably a lack of knowledge and a true understanding about the […]

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 […]
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 […]

If you’re not in the entertainment biz…the word hiatus probably doesn’t have the same meaning. For those on the small and big screen, but mostly TV shows…hiatus is a time when the TV production takes a break. It’s also a time when celebs might want a little something….something to improve their appearance.
I have said, many […]
Did an Upper Blepharoplasty today under local infiltration and no anesthesia. A Blepharoplasty is when skin and fatty tissues are removed from the eyelids. An incision is made in the upper eyelid crease, the tissues are removed and the incision is closed with a dissoveable suture. The whole thing takes about 30 min….all using Novacaine-like […]
I’m off to the OR to do a case that I refer to as “Around the World.” Facelift, necklift, eyelift (blepharoplasty), Browlift, Rhinoplasty, Chhek Augmentation and lip augmentation with Alloderm….oh and let’s not forget Botox to lip lines. Yikes, I’ll be tired after this but she’s going to look amazing. Why is it called around the world……I […]
Exciting day here today. VIP surgery (celebrity, public figure, roaylty, captain of industry?) and then did a case with a TV film crew. From the VIP case where secrecy is paramount…to the oepnness of doing surgery with a film crew filming everything.
As the VIP is leaving…the film crew is setting up in another portion of […]
Breast Augmentation in Celebrities has been in the news lately.
Did several Breast Augmentations today. It’s amazing how nice the patients look after the surgery. I prefer placing the Breast Implants below the muscle if at all possible….it looks more natural and allows for more options in the future.
Breasts are making a huge comeback…no pun intended. We […]
I saw a tummy tuck, for a psot-op visit and started to remove some of the stitches. The stitches around the belly button are removed about 9-10 days after the surgery. I’ve been using dissolveable stitches for everything else. She has some numbness over the entire abdomen, which becomes completely normal at about 3 months postop. […]
This is a further update on my post a couple of days ago regarding counterfiet Botox and other Plastic & Cosmetic Materials like Restylane. A lady in Monterey died from fake Botox that was injected by her hair stylist! I warned you that it was “Buyer Beware” out there in the beauty business, but when hair […]
I know that I have frequently written posts on my Custom Mini Facelifts but geez…I am doing them an unbelievable amount. Seems people are more interested in looking better right now, with little downtime, than in looking 15 years younger and a larger surgery. I’m serious…I’m doing 5 Minilifts in the next 2 days. These […]
WOW! I have to make major decisions on several key entertainment items that, I believe, will have significant impact on my career. It’s so strange that it’s not enough to be a highly trained, skilled, experienced Plastic & Cosmetic Surgeon…you have to be media savvy and camera ready as well.
I actually have taken the role […]
Tag this one under ” Buyer Beware”… Had lunch with the Beverly Hills area Restylane sales rep at a very trendy sushi restaurant and during our conversation he mentioned that bootleg Restylane was found in the US. Now for those of you unfamiliar with Restylane, it’s a great soft tissue filler that’s injected into facial […]
March 7, 2006: I saw the lady that had the Tummy Tuck yesterday…see that post…for her first post-op visit. She has 2 bulb drains under the skin over the abdomen to remove any excess blood and serous fluid. These typically remain in for 3-4 days after the surgery. She’s also wearing an abdominal binder. It’s like a girdle […]
