Medical Travel Vacations Now Include Body Lifts
Scottsdale, AZ (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) October 28, 2005 -- Demand for body lifts, a new cosmetic surgery procedure that is almost a necessity after massive weight loss from gastric bypass surgery, is growing fast. People are especially interested in having the procedure done in Thailand as part of a medical travel vacation. Our clients save 50% to 80% of the cost of the same procedure in the U.S. by having it done by our surgeons in Bangkok, Thailand, says Julie Munro, CEO and Chief Medical Concierge at Cosmetic Surgery Travel LLC, Americas leading medical travel planning service. For instance, one of Munros clients went in for a consultation at a well-known Chicago clinic and received an estimate of $80,000 for a two-stage body lift procedure.
It included a belt lipectomy, abdominoplasty, breast lift and implants, brachioplasty (upper arm reduction) and a lower body lift. In Thailand, her body lift will be completed by a top plastic and reconstructive surgeon in Bangkok in two 3-week stays for a total cost of less than $25,000 including surgery, hospital stay, all accommodations, plane fare and supervised recovery. Both plastic surgeons, in Chicago and Bangkok, had exactly the same approach, says Munro.Another Cosmetic Surgery Travel client from New York, NY had her first stage body lift done in August and is returning to Thailand in December for the second stage. Total cost will be about $20,000 because she is using frequent flyer miles.Most body lifts are done in two or three stages, three to four months apart. Only a few women are suitable candidates for a one-stage full or total body lift that costs $40,000-$50,000.To learn more or book this procedure, visit www.cosmeticsurgerytravel.com/bookNow.htmlCosmetic Surgery Travel LLC is a U.S.

The Liquid Facelift Has Arrived
Austin, TX (ContentDesk) April 21, 2004 -? Dr. Gregory Nikolaidis of Westlake Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery is one of only a few select physicians in Texas chosen to use Sculptra, a product created by Dermik Laboratories.
Already commonly used throughout Europe, Sculptra is known as the "liquid facelift."
Patients are able to safely and non-surgically receive the benefits of traditional facelifts through the product's effect of plumping up the skin.During the Sculptra procedure, a patient is numbed with topical numbing cream and given a series of injections in the desired area.
The material used in Sculptra is lactic acid, the substance that is naturally produced by muscles during exercise.
This acid stimulates the skin to produce more collagen, thus producing a plumping effect.
Dr. Nikolaidis believes that "this product will transform the field of cosmetic surgery."
Unlike other fillers, such as Restylane and Cosmoplast, which last...

"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...

Where's The "Plastic" In Plastic Surgery?
Don't be looking for the Dupont Company sales rep the next time you visit a Plastic Surgeon's office because, despite popular belief, there's no "Plastic" in Plastic Surgery. The name is taken from the Greek word "plastikos" which means to "mold or shape." Initially plastic surgery procedures were limited to facial and body reconstruction caused by accidents, trauma, illness or birth defects. As people began to see the purely cosmetic possibilities, many surgeons expanded their services to include facelifts, rhinoplasty (nose jobs), breast augmentation and liposuction. It's important to know the difference between plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery, especially if you're planning on having your insurance company foot the bill for your procedure. Cosmetic surgery is performed solely to improve a person's outward physical appearance and self-esteem by correcting naturally occuring conditions that the patient is unhappy with.
Cosmetic surgery may be performed by either a Plastic...

Cosmetic Surgery
Cosmetic surgery is done by qualified surgeons to visually improve any part of the body. Usually, many people undergo cosmetic surgery to better their appearance. It is also referred to as elective surgery, since the patient chooses to undertake surgery although it is not mandatory.
Cosmetic surgery can be broadly classified into body contouring, facial cosmetic surgery, non-invasive treatments, and facial rejuvenation. According to recent figures published by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, women were not the only ones undergoing cosmetic surgery. Men accounted for 11 percent of the total cosmetic surgeries performed in 2005.
Whether a patient is considering a face-lift, liposuction or breast implants, cosmetic surgery should not be viewed frivolously.
Many surgeons are of the opinion that certain factors in the patient's life could be influencing their decision to undergo cosmetic surgery, and they may choose to delay the operation...

Chef Hats
Chefs wear distinct hats known as the toque blanche or, in more popular words, a chef's hat, while working in kitchens. One of the main reasons to wear a chef's hat is to stop any stray hair on the chef's head from falling into the dish being prepared at that moment. Many chefs wear a head net that covers the entire head and then put on the chef's hat on that. This locks the hair in place and provides no chance of that hair falling into one of the dishes about to be served to a customer.
