Adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) is rich in growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor, hepatocyte growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, and insulin-like growth factor. Vascular endothelial growth factor controls hair growth and follicle size through angiogenesis. Hepatocyte growth factor is involved in the cyclic growth of hair follicles. Platelet-derived growth factor induces and maintains the anagen phase of hair follicles. Insulin-like growth factor controls the hair growth cycle and differentiation of hair shafts. In treatment with adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned medium, each growth factor seems likely to activate hair follicles and contribute to increasing the number of hairs in patients with alopecia. 

Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) has been shown to have numerous growth factors. PRP therapy involves collecting the candidate’s blood and spinning it down into a concentrate of plasma that has a high platelet concentration. This is then injected back into the candidate’s scalp. Studies have reported enhanced growth after hair transplant surgery and increased hair counts when used in male and female pattern hair loss. 

For the procedure, approximately 15cc of fat is liposuctioned in the abdomen area (minimally invasive) that is then liquefied and mixed with 15-16cc of super concentrated PRP.

Turtlenecks should keep your neck and lower face warm-not hide it from view. An undesirable neck and jaw appearance can

Liposuction targeted to the submental area which is located beneath the chin and jaw.

A submental liposuction procedure can cost anywhere from $2,000 to $10,000. The actual cost of submental liposuction is dependent upon location, board certified plastic surgeon, and length and involvement of the plastic surgery.

Submental liposuction is a plastic surgery procedure to reduce excess fat deposits in the submental fat pad which lies below the chin and jaw. This cosmetic surgery can be used to reduce the appearance of a double chin, remove unwanted fat, and contour the chin, neck, and jaw.

Submental liposuction is typically performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia and only uses small incisions. Some candidates choose to pursue a neck lift or facelift as well to further enhance results. 

An alternative to this facial plastic surgery is Kybella®, an FDA-approved injectable to reduce excess fat in the submental area.

Submental Liposuction

Enhances and tightens the neck by eliminating excess tissue and fat that forms as we age.

A direct neck lift is essentially the combination of a cervicoplasty, which removes excess skin, with a platysmaplasty, which tightens the underlying muscles in the neck. A facelift will help tighten the lower half of the face but a neck lift will further define the facial contour and profile by creating an aesthetically pleasing angle from the chin to the chest.

During a direct neck lift, an incision will be placed underneath the chin where the resulting scar can be easily hidden. The skin of the neck will then be elevated to expose the underlying fat. The fat will either be removed by direct excision or with liposuction. Once the fat has been removed the underlying platysma muscles will be tightened and bound with sutures, creating structural support and the new neck angle. Any excess skin will then be removed, cutting away the appearance of a double chin or turkey wattle. The incision will then be closed with sutures. A compression garment must then be worn for several weeks after the surgery to assist in healing.

Direct Neck Lift

A direct neck lift is a plastic surgery to enhance and tighten the neck eliminating a double chin, chubby chin, turkey wattle, or wobbly neck.

Combines skin tightening and fat melting properties of laser treatments to improve the contours of the neck and jawline.

Sagging skin under the neck and chin can cause an individual to be self conscious about the way they look. Loose, hanging skin and submental fullness can change the contours of a once youthful face. Whether caused by age or genetics, PrecisionTX can improve the appearance of a double chin during a minimally invasive in-office procedure. Results are dramatic and are sometimes compared to neck lift and facelift results. 

PrecisionTX uses laser energy to not only melt away stubborn fat pads under the chin, but also encourage collagen production to tighten loose skin. PrecisionTX is unique in that it is a side-firing laser. Instead of the tip of the probe emitting laser energy to all tissues, the PrecisionTX laser only directs heat in one direction. This allows for targeted fat melting and skin tightening in the sensitive face area.

During treatment, only local anesthesia is needed although a mild sedative may be given to the patient for increased comfort. No more than 3 incisions are made during a PrecisionTX treatment to access the entire neck and chin area. Small incisions will be made beneath each ear as well as beneath the chin. The PrecisionTX probe will be inserted just beneath the skin and inserted back and forth in a fanning motion. The first pass of the PrecisionTX laser is meant to melt unwanted fatty tissue which will then be removed with an aspirating cannula. The patient will hear loud popping noises during the procedure which indicates rupturing fat cells. 

Once the fat is melted and removed via a short liposuction procedure, the PrecisionTX laser will be reintroduced beneath the skin to tighten the tissue. The side-firing laser is directed in a more upwards position to ensure a targeted treatment. The procedure is typically completed in less than 1 hour, requiring no stitches. Patients will need to wear a compression garment around the face and neck for at least 1-2 weeks. Improvement is noticeable almost immediately after surgery.

PrecisionTx®

PrecisionTx® is a fat reduction and skin tightening procedure targeted to the neck, chin, and jawline for improved contours and definition.

An awake neck lift refers to the type of anesthesia used during surgery — local instead of general anesthesia.

An awake neck lift procedure can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $8,000. The actual cost of an awake neck lift is dependent upon location, board certified facial plastic surgeon, and length and involvement of the plastic surgery.

An awake neck lift refers to the lack of general anesthesia used during the Neck Lift surgery. Depending on the candidate, anesthesiologist, and plastic surgeon, an awake neck lift may be an alternative for patients who do not wish to have general anesthesia.

There are various types of anesthesia, however, they can be broken down into general anesthetics versus local anesthetics. General anesthesia is an intravenous sedation. In the awake neck lift, a patient undergoes "conscious sedation" or twilight anesthesia with regional or local anesthetics. 

As in traditional neck lift plastic surgeries, excess skin, excess fat, and underlying muscle (usually the platysma muscle) is altered to create natural appearing results. The “awake” component means local anesthesia is used. Specifically, tumescent fluid-a combination of epinephrine, local anesthetics like lidocaine, and saline-is used to anesthetize the area to be treated.

Awake Neck Lift

An awake neck lift refers to the type of anesthesia used during surgery — local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia. The surgical technique utilized for the neck lift will be similar to that used in a direct neck lift.

NeckTite™ is a non-surgical RF energy treatment to reduce excess fat and tighten skin of the lower face and neck.

A NeckTite™ procedure can cost anywhere from $2,000 to $8,000. The actual cost of NeckTite™ is dependent upon location, board certified plastic surgeon, and length and involvement of the plastic surgery.

NeckTite™ is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure to reduce fat deposits and tighten skin via radiofrequency energy. NeckTite™ is part of the BodyTite™ family of procedures, which also includes FaceTite™. NeckTite™ uses RFAL for facial contouring, and fat pocket reduction (like liposuction). This non-invasive procedure can correct sagging skin, jowls, loose skin in the neck area, and poor jawline definition. There is minimal downtime associated with the procedure when compared to the recovery times of facelifts and neck lifts.

One of the most undoubtedly effective treatments available for eliminating loose, aging, or sagging skin.

Tightens the underlying neck muscles to provide patients with a more defined neckline and chin region.

A platysmaplasty tightens the lax neck muscles that cause neck banding and an ill defined neckline. It is common for a platysmaplasty to be combined with a cervicoplasty to remove excess skin and fat, often referred to as a direct neck lift. 

The platysmaplasty begins by making a small, discreet, 1cm incision underneath the chin. An endoscope will be inserted for better visualization. The platysma muscles will tightened and sutured together to reduce the appearance of neck bands and create a single layer of muscle, called a midline platysma plication.

Platysmaplasty

A platysmaplasty is a plastic surgery neck lift procedure to alter underlying neck musculature for a more defined neck and under chin appearance.

Removes excess skin from the chin and neck area while muscles under the chin are left intact.

A cervicoplasty is a common procedure performed to give patients a more defined profile in the neck area. Aging skin can create folds of overly lax skin and in situations of extreme weight loss, excess skin can hang off of the neck creating the appearance of a double chin. If patients also have apparent neck bands, a cervicoplasty is often combined with a platysmaplasty to tighten the underlying muscles. 

During a cervicoplasty the patient will lay on their back for the duration of the procedure. The area will be thoroughly infiltrated with a liquid solution combination of lidocaine and epinephrine. This lidocaine in the solution numbs the area while the addition of epinephrine allows for larger doses of numbing to be administered while simultaneously elongating the effects of the anesthesia and reducing bleeding. A z-plasty cut is made on the neck, which will look like a "z" but will be closed as a seamless straight line. Excess skin and fat will be removed. No muscle tightening will be performed.

Cervicoplasty

A cervicoplasty is a plastic surgery neck lift procedure used to remove excess skin and excess fat from the chin and neck area for a rejuvenated and refreshed appearance.

A semi-automated hair transplant system which facilitates the harvesting of follicles during an FUE hair transplant.

Forehead Shape & Size

Neograft uses a partly robotic method of follicular unit extraction which seeks to reverse hair loss created by thinning hair, bald spots and receding hairlines. Other options for hair transplant include the entirely robotic ARTAS system or the strip harvesting method. The NeoGraft hair procedure is a one-day, outpatient procedure that requires only local anesthesia. Most patients experience very little or no discomfort during and after surgery. The scalp will be treated with a local anesthetic, and if needed and previously discussed, the hair in the donor area will be cut short before the procedure begins. Patients rest comfortably, watch TV or nap during their hair procedure.

The extraction procedure is simple but may take some time. Using a wand powered by pneumatic pressure, the Neograft removes donor hair from the back of the head. This is the area where the hair follicles resist falling out if male pattern baldness is the problem. For females, the hair is typically extracted from other areas where it can safely be harvested. The surgeon will create recipient sites in the proper orientation, angle, and direction according to the hair transplantation plan, which would be individualized during the consultation. Finally, the follicular units are carefully separated by size before transplanting the grafts into balding or thinning areas of the scalp. Each extracted graft is meticulously harvested and individually implanted to ensure the best results.

NeoGraft

If you are suffering from male or female pattern hair loss, permanently regrow your hair through hair grafts.

Hair Transplant

Hair transplants represent methods of permanent hair restoration for patients suffering from hair loss that can be reversed in a number of ways. Male and female pattern hair loss can be treated using hair transplantation procedures that transplant hair follicles from strips of scalp or individual hair bulbs into balding areas. Some procedures manually extract hair grafts and cut them into micro-grafts while others extract several or individual hair follicles using robotic technology.

Hyaluronic acid fillers are injected into the nipple to correct nipple inversion or to keep the nipple erect.

Mommy Makeover

Nipple Shape & Size

The nipple is a small mound on the center of the breast surrounded by the areola. The nipple can change its projection based on temperature or stimulation. For some, the nipple height when erect is subjectively small, or may be inverted. Others who have undergone breast reconstruction may desire more prominent nipple projection. Others still desire their nipples to be constantly erect simply for aesthetic purposes. To increase the height of the nipple, hyaluronic acid based fillers, the same injectables used for lip augmentation, can provide a temporary increase in the amount of projection as well as improve the appearance of inverted nipples. 

During treatment, dermal fillers will be injected into the nipple as well as around the base of the nipple. While hyaluronic acid based filled are commonly used, collagen and poly-L-lactic acid based fillers have also been successfully used without having an affect on future breast imaging. The procedure is completed in less than 15 minutes and patients are able to resume normal activity immediately with the exception of strenuous exercise. Results are immediate however 1-4 treatments may be necessary to achieve desired projection.

Nipple Augmentation

Correct nipples that are too big, too small, or inverted with surgery or dermal fillers.

Nipple Correction

Certain conditions may cause both men and women to feel self-conscious about the appearance of their nipples and surrounding pigmented skin. From cosmetic concerns about the shape and size of the nipples, to functional problems like inverted nipples that affect breastfeeding, most issues can be corrected with surgery or injections of dermal fillers.

Nipple augmentation is done by injecting fillers into the nipple to increase projection or correct inversion. Here is a quick guide for what to expect before, during, and after a nipple augmentation procedure.

A nipple augmentation enhances nipple protrusion and can serve as a nipple correction surgery with the use of injectable hyaluronic acid based fillers.

A condition present since puberty in males and females. Inverted nipples can be pulled back to a normal position.

Nipple inversion severity is evaluated on a scale of 1 to 3. The level of inversion will be assessed by your physician, during an initial consultation, before deciding on the best course of action.

Level 1: sometimes referred to as ‘shy nipple,’ Level 1 is the most minor level of inversion. It is assigned when the nipple responds to stimulation — it may protrude temporarily before returning to an inverted position.

Level 2: the nipple remains inverted at all times, but can be pulled out without too much resistance.

Level 3: this is the most severe level of nipple inversion. The nipple will remain inverted despite attempts to stimulate it. This is usually a result of scarring or tissue constriction.

Patients who are having inverted nipple surgery in order to breastfeed can have a procedure designed to partially preserves the milk ducts. Inverted nipple repair with partial preservation of milk ducts usually involves a local anesthetic and a sedative before surgery. An incision is typically placed around the areola (the dark-skinned area surrounding the nipple), followed by the nipple and areola tissue being lifted from the breast and stitched into a new shape. The lifted nipple and tissue is not disconnected from the breast with this technique.

Inverted nipple surgery with milk duct detachment is typically reserved for patients who are not planning to breastfeed. The procedure can be performed using a local anesthetic in combination with a sedative. An incision is made at the base of the nipple, detach the milk ducts, and reshape the nipple for the desired results.

Both inverted nipple surgery techniques generally take only about an hour to complete on an outpatient basis.

Inverted Nipple Repair

An inverted nipple repair surgery corrects the typically benign condition of the nipples being pulled in or flattened on the breast.

Reduction of the size and shape of the pigmented skin around the nipple.

Commonly referred to as the nipple, the areola is actually a separate part of the breast that consists of the pigmented area around the nipple. Areolae are typically several shades darker than the surrounding skin but can be much darker, lighter, or the same color as the breast. Size and color of the areolae generally does not indicate any health concerns, as areolae can come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. For some, the areolae can be a cosmetic area of concern. Some men and women are born with areolae that are asymmetrical or are subjectively large. Areola characteristics can also be affected in adulthood by pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight gain. For those who desire a change in the areola, a reduction procedure can be performed for permanent results. 

During the procedure the patient will be placed under local anesthesia, typically with a sedative as well. Patients who are combining an areola reduction with another procedure such as a breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction, general anesthesia will likely be used. The patient will be marked preoperatively with 2 concentric circles around the areola. The inner circle will denote the new size of the areola. The outer circle will be made at the edges of the areola, with the area between the inner and outer circle representing the tissue that will be excised. If the patient would like the areola to sit at a higher position on the breast, more skin will be removed at the upper portion of the areola instead of removing an even amount of tissue around the nipple. 

The skin around the areola will then be infiltrated with a local anesthetic. Incisions will be made as per the preoperative markings and the excess tissue will be undermined and removed. Next, the wound will be closed, typically with a dissolvable circular stitch that closes with a “purse string” effect. It is common for additional permanent stitches to be placed to reduce tension and future stretching of the areola. The nipple will then be covered with a simple dressing. Most patients return to work within 1-2 days of the procedure and should avoid strenuous or sexual activities for 7-10 days.

Involves decreasing the size of protruding or disproportionately large nipples and balancing the breast.

The size and shape of the nipple, while not typically an indicator of a health concern, can cause aesthetic distress for some individuals. The nipple is cylindrical in shape with a curved top, however nipple hypertrophy occurs when the projection or diameter of the nipple is overly tall or wide. Nipple hypertrophy can be present during puberty but can also be caused by pregnancy, breastfeeding, or trauma to the tissue. 

When performing a nipple reduction, the focus is more commonly on the projection, or height, of the nipple. The diameter, or width, of the nipple can also be corrected during the procedure. First, preoperative marks will be drawn on the nipple. Depending on the preference of the patient, a circular mark will be made at the base of the nipple as well as between 6-8mm from the base of the nipple, delineating the new nipple height. If the diameter of the nipple is being reduced, additional rectangular or wedge markings will be made on the top and bottom of the nipple, equaling the amount of tissue to be removed. 

Only local anesthesia is necessary during a nipple reduction procedure. The base and trunk of the nipple will be infiltrated with lidocaine. Incisions will be made following the preoperative markings. Extra skin will be dissected and removed. Sutures will be used to attach the nipple to the base, reducing the height. If the width of the nipple is being reduced, the skin on the circumference of the nipple will be sutured back together as well. A bandage will be placed over the nipple and areola. Most patients are recovered 2 weeks after the procedure.

Incorporates a non-wounding laser to remove layers of skin and minor skin blemishes over several courses of treatments.

Scars

Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Acne Scars

Facial Skin Laxity

The lasers used in this procedure are non-ablative, meaning they are non-wounding and less intense than their ablative counterparts. The fractional nature of the procedure delivers the lasers on a focused treatment area as opposed to non-fractional lasers, which administer across an entire section. The fractional approach results in a lessened recovery period and reduces procedure complications. The cost of fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing ranges from approximately $1,031-$1,144 depending on the amount of skin treatment.

Fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing utilizes non-ablative lasers, which are non-wounding beams of direct heat. The lasers are used to stimulate collagen growth and tighten underlying skin. The treatment in effect eliminates older pigmented skin and therefore, stimulates collagen remodeling. In fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing specifically, multiple sessions may be required. 

Examples of non-ablative fractional lasers include the 755nm Picosure Focus, the 1410 nm Fraxel re:fine the 1440 nm ND:YAG Affirm and StarLux, the 1540 nm StarLux and Icon and the 1550nm Fraxel re:store and Fraxel re:storeDUAL.

Depending on the laser, a topical numbing cream may be used for the patient's comfort however some laser devices will have a cooling element built directly into the handpiece. The laser will then be expertly applied to the treatment area, targeting uneven skin texture, irregular pigmentation, fine lines, and other skin imperfections. The provider will closely monitor the skin to ensure an effective but comfortable session. Once the skin has been thoroughly treated, a soothing serum or ointment will be applied and a bandage may be put on the skin.

Fractional non-ablative  laser skin resurfacing is a technique used to remove older, pigmented skin layer by layer to reveal new skin underneath. This is the least aggressive form of laser skin resurfacing. Here is a quick guide for what to expect before, during, and after non-fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing. 

Fractional Non-Ablative Laser Skin Resurfacing

Non-ablative fractional laser skin resurfacing is a technique that incorporates a non-wounding laser to remove layers of skin as well as minor skin blemishes such as dark spots and fine lines. This treatment targets skin imperfections over the course of several treatments with shorter recovery times and has long lasting results.

Preserves the skin's outer layer which results in faster healing but with less dramatic results.

Melasma

Uneven Skin Texture

In non-ablative resurfacing the endpoint is coagulation of the tissue, whereas in ablative resurfacing the endpoint is vaporization of the tissue. Either can be performed in a fractional technique, which delivers energy to the dermis to stimulate collagen remodeling through many narrow columns called microthermal treatment zones (MTZs). The epidermis at these sites is coagulated and destroyed, but the areas between these MTZs remains intact, leading to much faster healing. Each MTZ is one-tenth the size of a hair follicle. The energy deposited in the dermis then acts to tighten skin and stimulate collagen remodeling beneath a mostly intact epidermal layer. Remember that this energy is less than a full ablative technique and therefore multiple treatments are likely to be required.

Non-Ablative Laser Skin Resurfacing

Non-ablative laser skin resurfacing preserves the skin's outer layer, which results in faster healing but with less dramatic improvements.

Used to remove older, pigmented skin layer by layer to reveal new skin underneath without wounding the skin.

Non-ablative non-fractional laser skin resurfacing is a procedure used to treat loss of skin tone and to improve the general complexion of the skin. The lasers used in this procedure are non-ablative, meaning they are non-wounding and less intense than their ablative counterparts. The non-fractional nature of the procedure delivers the lasers across a wide treatment area as opposed to fractional lasers, which administer on a focused section. The non-fractional approach can result in a more prolonged recovery period. The cost of non-fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing ranges from approximately $1031-$1144 depending on the amount of skin treatment.

Examples of non-ablative non-fractional lasers include the 1319nm pulsed energy laser Thermascan, the 1320 nm Nd: YAG laser CoolTouch CT3Plus, Harmony XL the 1450nm diode laser Smoothbeam and the 1054 Nd:YAG Laser Genesis.
