Colorado Oral & Maxillofacial/Craniofacial/Cosmetic Surgeon Speaks at Sky Ridge Medical Center in Lone Tree, Colorado
Denver, CO (ContentDesk) August 14, 2006 Dr. Randolph C. Robinson will be speaking at the Grand Rounds at the Sky Ridge Medical Center in August, 2006.
He will be presenting Orthognathic Surgery and Correction of Facial Deformities and Clefting and discuss his research and findings in the area of orthognathic surgery.
Dr.
Robinson is an expert in reconstructive surgery of the face caused by skeletal growth problems, as well as craniofacial syndromes and cleft palate.
Many children with facial deformities require orthodontic treatment in order to align the teeth in the bones. Follow up skeletal surgery allows the doctor to place those bones into the correct position, which ultimately will improve dentition and facial proportions.
Facial appearance is very important in communication and interaction in society. Children with facial deformities are often handicapped in their ability to speak, eat, and be accepted socially.
Even though the correction of these facial deformities can be life altering and affect a patients future medical and health patterns, major medical insurance is trending towards excluding coverage even in the most severe deformities.
Dr. Robinson will explain these trends, as well as the fundamentals on how facial skeletal surgery is performed. His presentation will also include the recovery process and possible complications.

Copyright 2006 Park Meadows Cosmetic Surgery
What makes a doctor a plastic surgery specialist? Does it take special requirements, or is it an easy process?
It starts with education and training. If a doctor chooses to become a plastic surgery specialist, he should focus his education and skills on this specialty. The surgeon should have completed an accredited residency program in plastic surgery, and have a number of years of intensive training and experience covering the full spectrum of reconstructive and cosmetic procedures. Typically, when a doctor chooses to become a plastic surgery specialist, he or she will also become board certified to enter the field of plastic surgery. Certification requires rigorous qualifications and strict membership requirements.
Once a doctor chooses to become a plastic surgery specialist, he must turn his training into experience.
If he has performed your procedure dozens of times, he'll understand every...

Child hernia surgery restrictions & advises
Hernia surgery is a very simple surgery that succeeds in almost all cases. But doctors recommend parents not to delay their child's operation because some complications can appear in this situation. Next follow some useful facts about the surgery.
The operation lasts for about one hour and the child can return home the same day the surgery was performed. Overall the child must spend around five hours in the hospital, but if any complications appear at least one day of medical supervision is required.
No visible scars will remain on the child's skin because all the work is done under the skin. Also there are no stitches that need removing but there is going to be a covering tape over the incision, but it will fall or it can be removed after a few days from the surgery.
In some cases dried blood gathers under the tape but that will also be gone.
At many children who suffered a hernia surgery the scrotum has swallowed a little and it was also bruised...

"Extreme" Cosmetic Surgery -- Study Finds No Extra Complications with Combined Procedures
Los Angeles, CA (ContentDesk) August 13, 2005 -- There is no denying the continued popularity of cosmetic surgery and procedures: Americans are very interested in looking the best they can. As technology and surgical procedures improve, elective surgery has become a viable option for more and more people. Often, when people begin to consider cosmetic surgery they become interested in several procedures that would mean multiple operations. Now, as highlighted in many television shows, news segments and magazine articles, more people opt to combine procedures into one operation, saving costs and healing time periods as well as seeing the final results more quickly.While multiple procedures in one operation saved time and money, it was important to determine if there were drawbacks. Traditional surgical thinking believed prolonged anesthesia could increase risks or complications, but definitive data did not exist.
Dr. Grant Stevens, director of Marina Plastic Surgery, began to study...

“Vanity Tax” on Plastic Surgery is Unworkable, Says Dallas Surgeon
Dallas, TX (ContentDesk) April 12, 2006 -- Under pressure to increase tax revenue, a growing number of states across the US are considering a so-called vanity tax that would levy a sales tax on plastic surgery procedures.New Jersey has enacted a 6% tax on cosmetic procedures. Washington, Illinois and several other states are considering similar measures. In Texas, Governor Rick Perry has proposed expanding the state sales tax to include elective cosmetic surgery as part of an effort to boost school funding.But such taxes are a bad idea, says Dallas plastic surgeon Dr. Fred Hackney (http://www.hackney-plastic-surgery-clinic.com).
While I can see how this might appeal to people, says Hackney, its based on a misconception that most plastic surgery is elective. Hackney says that any tax on plastic surgery would be unworkable because of the difficulty in determining what surgery really is elective...
