Liposuction Popularity to Rebound
    CHERRY HILL, NJ, April 27, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Evan Sorokin, a board-certified plastic surgeon at Delaware Valley Plastic Surgery, says he is seeing a turnaround in the demand for liposuction in New Jersey as advancements in technology lead to a new generation of liposuction methods.

Even though there has been a nationwide drop in the use of liposuction in recent years, the number of liposuction procedures performed in the United States rose slightly in 2011. Liposuction was the third most common cosmetic procedure in the United States last year - behind breast augmentation and nose reshaping. Recent statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons show the popularity of liposuction had decreased 42% since 2000, but it increased by 1% between 2010 and 2011.

"This is the beginning of a trend," Dr. Sorokin says. "As new methods such as Smartlipo and VASER Lipo become more available, we will begin to see an even greater increase in the use of this procedure."

Dr. Sorokin was the first plastic surgeon to offer the Smartlipo method of liposuction in South New Jersey. Smartlipo uses laser energy to assist in removing fat, as well as tightening skin in the targeted area and encouraging collagen production. VASER Lipo uses ultrasonic waves to treat troublesome fat deposits.

"I understand how frustrating it can be to have areas of stubborn fat that detract from an otherwise toned body," Dr. Sorokin says.

This is why he chose to specialize in ultrasonic and power-assisted liposuction and was honored to have Cynosure, the maker of Smartlipo, select Delaware Valley Plastic Surgery as an official training center for other physicians.

"Smartlipo can even be used on fat deposits that are too small for traditional liposuction methods," he says, "and the added benefits of skin tightening and collagen stimulation, all in one treatment, makes it an ideal solution for many liposuction candidates."

Dr. Sorokin says his practice is also seeing a high demand for other cosmetic surgery procedures that are popular nationwide, including rhinoplasty and breast augmentation. New Jersey women are coming to Dr. Sorokin in increasing numbers for all types of breast surgery.

"Breast augmentation is one of the most popular procedures at Delaware Valley Plastic Surgery," Dr. Sorokin says. "Whether you want a sexier look, increased self-confidence, replacement of breast volume lost during pregnancy or reconstruction following a mastectomy or an injury, I can design an individualized breast procedure that is right for you."

Dr. Evan Sorokin is a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in a full selection of cosmetic surgery procedures such as short-recovery breast augmentation for New Jersey women. Dr. Sorokin earned his MD from Hahnemann Medical College in Philadelphia before training extensively in both general and plastic surgery at the University of Texas - Southwestern. He has earned recognition from both professional and lay organizations for his contributions to cosmetic surgery in New Jersey. Dr. Sorokin is board-certified by the America Board of Plastic Surgery, the only plastic and cosmetic surgery board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties.

"I've been seeing more breast augmentation patients at my practice because of a number of factors," Dr. Silverman says. "I attribute the increase in Ottawa, and elsewhere, partially to advancements in breast implant options and surgical techniques, which are creating more personalized results."

Dr. Silverman uses the latest in breast implant surgical techniques and offers his patients the newest in highly cohesive round gel implants, the INSPIRA line, which is part of Allergan's NATRELLE collection.

Dr. Silverman also recently travelled to Sweden to observe renowned Swedish plastic surgeon Dr. Charles Randquist, as part of Allergan's initiative to advance breast augmentation skills for top surgeons utilizing their devices.

Not Surprised by Whitney Houston's Breast Implants
    PHOENIX, AZ, May 02, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Remus Repta of Advanced Aesthetic Associates says he's not surprised that the Los Angeles County coroner found scars associated with breast implants on Whitney Houston's body, since breast augmentation in Phoenix and across the nation is extremely common.

What Dr. Repta finds interesting is the spin the media put on the results of the coroner's report, which indicated there were small scars associated with breast implants on Houston's breasts.

"Whitney Houston's tragic death was covered by news sources across the nation, but I was shocked to see that evidence of breast implants was considered by the media to be a 'surprising detail'" Dr. Repta says.

"While she may not have been overly open about having had cosmetic surgery, breast augmentation is very common and continues to be the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure in the United States."

American Society of Plastic Surgeons statistics show that breast augmentation is the top cosmetic plastic surgery procedure in the country, with more than 300,000 augmentations recorded in 2011 alone.

"Breast augmentation is also one of the most popular procedures at our Phoenix plastic surgery practice," Dr. Repta says. "It has become the most common cosmetic procedure because it can be such a positive change in how a woman looks and feels about her body. When performed properly, breast augmentation is a straight-forward and safe way to create a natural-looking enhancement that helps women feel more confident and better about themselves."

Dr. Repta and the other board-certified plastic surgeons at Advanced Aesthetic Associates pride themselves in providing personalized solutions for each of their patients.

"People may have been surprised to discover that Houston had breast implants at some point in her life because she did not look like she had had cosmetic surgery," Dr. Repta says. "With modern techniques, natural-looking results are easy to achieve through plastic surgery in Phoenix and across the nation.

"Advances in technology continue to help patients look and feel their best, and I hope Whitney Houston had a positive experience with her procedure, as well."

Dr. Remus Repta, Dr. Lewis Albert Andres, Dr. Pablo Prichard and their excellent staff at Advanced Aesthetic Associates take pride in being at the forefront of plastic surgery in Phoenix. They offer patients safe and effective techniques for attaining beautiful results. Each surgeon is skilled in reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgery procedures for the face, body, breast and skin. They provide an exceptional level of patient care, treating each patient with respect and empathy. Through open communication and plenty of face-to-face time, they are able to develop an individualized treatment plan for every patient.

'Bed-of-Nails' Implant Could Deter Breast Cancer, Surgeon Says

Implant Could Deter Breast Cancer, Surgeon Says
    IRVINE, CA, April 27, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Andrew Smith says a new breast implant under development at Brown University may have an immensely positive effect for patients undergoing breast reconstruction at his California practice.

According to a recent news release, researchers from Brown University have created a breast implant that could help prevent cancer cell growth. The implant attracts healthy endothelial cells for breast tissue while inhibiting cancer cells from being able to collect vital nutrients.

It has been nicknamed the "bed-of-nails" implant because of its bumpy outer surface, which appears to prevent cancer cells from growing and thriving.

"The 'bed-of-nails' implant is a promising example of how reconstructive surgery techniques are developing," Dr. Smith says. "It is always my goal to help patients during this challenging time by using the most advanced techniques, so I look forward to this new implant becoming available."

The new implant is made of a federally approved polymer. The surface texture of the implant is made up of very tiny bumps that are thought to discourage the regrowth of cancer cells.

"This specially designed texture could inhibit new cancer cells' ability to flourish," Dr. Smith says. "In addition, researchers are finding that it also may help promote the growth of healthy cells."

Dr. Smith says that although this technology is still under development, it could have great benefits for his Orange County breast surgery patients if it becomes available in the future.

"There's no questioning that the new implant could positively influence breast cancer recovery patients," Dr. Smith says. "While this science is new, it does provide an exciting glimpse into how the future of reconstructive breast surgery might look."

Dr. Smith offers a range of options in Orange County for breast implants, and he customizes each procedure to meet the specific needs of the patient. He is dedicated to providing personal service and to helping women have a smooth and speedy recovery from surgery.

Andrew Smith, M.D., FACS, is a board-certified plastic surgeon whose patients come from Orange and Riverside counties and all over Southern California. Dr. Smith earned his medical degree from George Washington University and has years of experience in addition to residency training in both cosmetic and reconstructive procedures. He is certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery and The American Board of Surgery, and he is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons.

Plastic Surgeon Discusses Revealing of First Breas
    NASHVILLE, TN, May 02, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Jack Fisher is discussing the recent revealing of the first patient to have breast augmentation with implants. Esteemed among plastic surgeons in Nashville, Dr. Fisher says it's interesting to see how this woman's procedure in 1962 positively affected her life.

MailOnline.com recently published an article on Timmie Jean Lindsey, an 80-year-old woman who was the first patient to have breast implants, taking her from a B to a C cup.

"It's fascinating to see how breast augmentation has evolved since Timmy Jean's first procedure," says Dr. Fisher. "While this patient is still happy with her results, there have been a number of innovations that have helped people achieve beautiful and natural-looking results.

Dr. Fisher offers breast augmentation patients in Nashville a variety of options for implants, including size, type and profile.

"I seek to personalize breast augmentation procedures, so patients can have results that are customized to their body types and cosmetic goals," says Dr. Fisher. "I assist patients in learning the benefits of silicone and saline breast implants in Nashville, as well as how incision placement options can affect a person's results."

As of this May in Vancouver at The Aesthetic Meeting 2012, Dr. Fisher becomes President Elect of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

Dr. Fisher says that one of the keys to beautiful results is choosing a qualified specialist with enough experience to create the intended results.

"Although Timmie Jean was the first breast augmentation patient with implants, it appears that her surgeons were extremely committed to providing safe results," says Dr. Fisher. "This commitment to optimal care is important regardless of the procedure in question.

"As a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, I use my skills to help people feel and look their best," says Dr. Fisher. "It's great to see that Timmie Jean is 'delighted' with her results and thinks it's 'awesome' to be the first patient with implants."

Dr. Jack Fisher is a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in breast enhancement, body contouring, and facial enhancement, as well as non-surgical skin care treatments. Throughout the country, Dr. Fisher is a well-known and respected surgeon. He has been invited to speak at a number of surgical conferences throughout the world, particularly on breast and aesthetic surgery. He is also an Associate Clinical Professor of Plastic Surgery at the prestigious Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN. Dr. Fisher received his medical degree from the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, completed his internships and residencies in general surgery at George Washington University Medical Center and his plastic surgery residency at Emory University Affiliated Hospital. Following his residency, he was on staff at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, from 1981 to 1986 as attending plastic surgeon.
