 Hair Restoration

Before and after 1 year Neograft Hair Transplant 2500 Grafts

#1 NeoGraft FUE Hair Transplant–Hair Restoration is the most common Aesthetic procedure for men globally.The best part is that with NeoGraft is also ideal for all skin tones and ethnic backgrounds and women and men can equally benefit from NeoGraft. Of course a donor site with healthy follicles is required for the procedure to be possible.  NeoGraft is performed under local anesthesia, and the grafted hair usually grows for a lifetime. There are no scars to be seen, it’s virtually painless, and the results look completely natural. Downtime is just a few days.

Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation 

#2 Fillers—More and more men turn to Fillers (volumizers)–to fill lost volume and the depressions of the face that occur with aging. Typical fillers are: Juvederm products, Restylane products, and Sculptra or Voluma. Fillers can be  very effective in turning back the clock for men and women.  Men may prefer a stronger jawline and chin which can be accomplished with fillers. Other than the possibility of bruising and minor swelling, one can go back to work that day or the next. Improvements can be dramatic if performed with skill. 

Minimal Invasive Fat Reduction and Skin Tightening 

Before and after neck liposuction and Renuvion for skin tightening

#3 Liposuction of the hated “love handles” and/or the lower abdomen. Local anesthesia can be used, and recovery time is minimal. For skin laxity (loose skin) we offer radiofrequency treatments with Virtue RF microneedling and Renuvion which is an internal probe often used in conjunction with liposuction. Renuvion is the only FDA cleared device approved with liposuction or as an alone standing treatment for loose skin. Both Virtue RF and Renuvion are effective for the right candidate. . If the skin is too excessive, surgery may be necessary.

Blepharoplasty 

#4 Upper and/or lower Eyelid Surgery–often done under local anesthesia. Great care must be taken to avoid the appearance of feminine eyes. Sutures are usually removed in five days, and there is some bruising and swelling following surgery. A lower eyelid lift usually involves removing the “bags” and can be done with the upper lid surgery or alone. Alternatively, non-surgical eyelid bags can be removed, and skin tightened with VirtueRF, which is very popular.

Male Breast Reduction 

#5 Gynecomastia–enlarged breasts in men. All of us have witnessed an older man with enlarged breasts, but this does not always just happen to old men. Gynecomastia can occur during puberty, weight gain, and/or at an older age when testosterone diminishes, and estrogen levels increase. This is very common and often embarrassing. The treatment involves liposuction and/or removing breast tissue through a small incision just below the areola generally performed under local anesthesia if desired. Men having had this procedure are elated with the result. 

Neck Rejuvenation 

Before and after 5 weeks of neck liposuction and skin excision on the neck.

#6 “Turkey Gobbler ” surgery—excess skin and/or fat in the neck. Men are often plagued with double chin or excessive skin on the neck and hate it. This condition can often be treated with liposuction and Renuvion. Facelifts are less commonly used, but also include the neck. Many men prefer something simpler and more direct, such as a direct excision of skin in combination with liposuction. This is uniformly successful. There is a faint vertical scar in front of the neck, but the  more obvious Turkey-gobbler is gone.

In Conclusion 

The latest alternative to minimal or non-surgical procedures mentioned above, are the Renuvion to tighten skin virtually anywhere followed by VirtueRF microneedling (no downtime),  both are radiofrequency devices which emit heat to tighten  skin, produce collagen and promote elastin fiber production. Both are often used simultaneously with a laser such as the CoolPeel CO2 laser. Combination therapy appears to be the future for effective non-surgical procedures with minimal recovery.
