MENTOR MemoryGel BOOST Breast Implant Breast Augmentation Baltimore

INTRODUCING MENTOR® MemoryGel BOOST™ Breast Implants! The Newest Implant for Baltimore Breast augmentation

No Comments, , , , , , ,
Baltimore breast augmentation specialist, Jeffrey Schreiber, is happy to offer these highly anticipated breast implants to his patients.

MENTOR®, the number one global brand in breast aesthetics, announced the FDA approved their new MemoryGel BOOST™ Breast Implant for breast augmentation in women at least 22 years old, and for women of all ages undergoing breast reconstruction.

Nearly 400,000 women undergo breast implant surgeries every year in the U.S. [1], and selecting an implant is a very personal decision and critical part of the journey. Each patient’s preferences and goals are unique, and that means providing them with a wide range of sizes and profiles to enhance their ability to individualize. While there are many options currently available, there’s been a need for an implant with increased form stability to help shape the breast, without sacrificing the soft, natural feel that patient’s desire.

“Our commitment to innovation is driven, first and foremost, by the needs of our customers and patients, and providing them with the highest quality products to achieve their desired outcome,” said Lori Tierney, Worldwide President, Mentor Worldwide LLC. “With this pivotal addition to our MemoryGel® portfolio, we are thrilled to provide a meaningful range of options to meet surgeon objectives and patient preferences, beyond what is currently available in the breast aesthetics market.”

According to a recent survey, Baltimore Breast Augmentation patients and surgeons both preferred the MENTOR® MemoryGel BOOST™ Breast Implant for feeling more like a natural breast versus another leading brand.

MemoryGel BOOST™ brings together Mentor’s proprietary highly cohesive gel, an innovative implant shell design and precision fill ratio, the combination of which provides an implant with increased form stability to shape the breast.

“Through science-based design and innovation, we are able to offer both increased form stability and a natural feel in the same product,” said Krasimira Hristov, Director of R&D, Mentor Worldwide LLC. “The MemoryGel BOOST™ Breast Implant is truly a unique innovation that satisfies an unmet need and expands the MemoryGel® product line.”

For more than 30 years, Mentor has been trusted and respected by surgeons and their patients, with over seven million women worldwide choosing Mentor® Breast Implants for their Baltimore breast augmentation and breast reconstruction journeys. Mentor also offers the industry’s best and most comprehensive enhanced warranty, and all MENTOR® Breast Implants are backed by the Mentor Promise Protection Plan, which provides free and automatic coverage for patients who qualify.

Viktoria DeAnn Peptides and Why You Need Them in Your Skin Care Routine

No Comments, ,

Peptides are a powerful product you should consider adding to your skincare routine.  When you buy a high-quality peptide, like the ones we carry from Viktoria DeAnn, you’re going to be able to reverse any skin problems you’re having. Then, you’ll be able to essentially slow down the body’s natural aging process when you use these products correctly. 

What is a Peptide?

A peptide is a chain of two or more amino acids joined together that build protein. Peptides in skincare are used to send a message to your skin to perform a specific function.

Why do we need them?

As the skin ages, it can forget to replenish itself at the proper rate.  There are a lot of factors that contribute to this happening.  Age, stress, diet, lifestyle choices and environmental factors like sun exposure are a few of the main culprits that comprise the skin’s ability to function properly.  As the skin is continually exposed to these things, collagen and elastin, which are the structures that hold your skin together, start to break down causing it to lose firmness and resilience.  When this happens you’ll start to notice wrinkles, saggy skin, and age spots. Adding a peptide to your skincare regime can help fix all this! We can reverse the damage that has been done.  And then, we can slow down the aging process going forward!

Why use Viktoria DeAnn Peptides? 

Not all peptides are created equal.  I researched many brands before deciding to use Viktoria DeAnn.  As a company, they have researched, developed and synthesized biological peptide messengers in their FDA inspected lab. The result is a line of peptides so pure that they are as close to what our body naturally would do.

What makes Viktoria DeAnn different than other products with peptides?

Other product lines have to purchase their peptides from suppliers. Viktoria DeAnn synthesizes their own.  So, they have full control over the formulas and quality. The result is they are able to deliver a higher concentration of actives at a reasonable price point.

Plus, they customize their products to create targeted solutions.  For example, Pepti-Lift was developed specifically to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and strengthen the skin tension to reduce the dreaded jowls. Pepti Correct was developed specifically to target and correct pigmentation caused by sun damage, melasma, or post-acne.  There is no one size fits all solution, which means great results for you. 

How do you use peptides?

Peptides should be used along with your other recommended skin care products and used twice a day as part of your skincare regime.

Who needs to use Viktoria DeAnn Peptides?

EVERYONE! We can’t stop the natural aging process, but peptides will help slow that down. I hear often clients want a change in their wrinkles and sagging skin. My first recommendation is always the Viktoria DeAnn Lift kit which has your essentials, Pepti-Lift, Pepti-Tone, Pepti-Eye and Rejuvenator. Clients have said they’ve seen a 5-10 year difference using the kit quickly and continue to use to keep up their results. 

Due to the unique nature of Viktoria Deann Peptides, they are not allowed to be sold online. These peptides are sold only by educated and licensed skin specialists. If you want to experience a facial rejuvenation Baltimore and would like to know more about the peptides or purchase them, please contact Baltimore plastic surgery directly and we’ll be happy to ship them or arrange product pick up.

Buttock Implants

No Comments, , ,

As surgical techniques improve, buttock (gluteal) augmentations are becoming more popular, and for good reason! Baltimore butt implants offer women and men a safe and effective way to increase the size and projection of their buttocks accentuating a youthful figure. 

What buttock augmentation surgery can do:

  • Increase fullness, roundness & projection of the butt
  • Improve the balance and asymmetry of your figure
  • Enhance your self-image & confidence

The Baltimore Buttock Implant Procedure

The Baltimore plastic surgery butt implant procedure itself is very straightforward, and only takes a few hours to do on an outpatient basis. However, placement of the buttock implants is critical and requires a skilled board certified plastic surgeon baltimore. Not everyone offering butt implants in Baltimore, MD can do this! Dr. Schreiber is able to combine procedures (tummy tuck, breast augmentation baltimore) to save you money and recovery time.

  1. During the procedure, the patient is placed in the prone position after induction of general anesthesia.
  2. A small incision is then made between the buttocks in the area hidden in the gluteal cleft between the buttocks. 
  3. Then, a pocket is made within the muscle for implant placement. Dr. Schreiber uses the intramuscular technique of buttock implant placement to help protect from infection and and contour abnormalities after the surgery. 
  4. The incisions are closed, the dressings are applied, and the butt implant procedure is complete.

Buttock Implant Surgery Recovery

Recovery from the Baltimore plastic surgery butt implant procedure lasts around 7-10 days, depending upon whether or not other procedures were done at the same time. Exercise can resume around 30 days after the procedure with heavy weightlifting resuming after 60 days. 

Dr. Schreiber provides his patients with his cell phone number and he can be reached 24/7 for any questions before or after the surgery.

While it is great to have an “ideal” bottom in mind before your consultation with Dr. Schreiber, understand that your surgery will be customized for your physique. Normally, the goal of a buttock augmentation is more than just creating a big butt; the procedure should enhance your overall figure.

Neck Lipo and Chin

No Comments, ,

plastic surgeon baltimoreAre you looking for ways to improve your neck and jawline to create a more youthful and healthy appearance? Neck liposuction and Chin implants are great options to enhance patient’s features by creating natural structure and contours.

Plastic surgeon baltimore Dr. Jeffrey Schreiber uses liposuction to make the neck look smoother and slimmer while accentuating the jawline. Because liposuction removes excess fat, but cannot significantly improve sagging skin, the typical neck liposuction patient will be younger, his or her 20’s through early 50’s, as younger patients typically have good skin elasticity, which is necessary for the skin to contract smoothly and evenly after liposuction.

For most of Dr. Schreiber’s patients, neck liposuction is a fairly quick procedure, and many times it can be performed using local anesthesia. Through 1 or 2 tiny incisions, concealed beneath the chin or behind the ears, Dr. Schreiber inserts a small liposuction cannula, removing excess fat and sculpting a natural contour to the chin and neck. Following the procedure, patients typically wear a special supportive chin strap for about 3 or 4 days, return to work within 1 week, and are ready to return to full activity after about 2 weeks. It is typical to experience some swelling and bruising after neck liposuction; this should resolve during the first 10 to 14 days after baltimore plastic surgery.

Neck Lift Benefits

  • Improves the appearance of a “double chin” or fullness underneath the chin
  • Results are permanent so long as a patient maintains a stable weight.
  • Refines the jawline to enhance the chin or bring balance to facial features
  • Patients with good skin tone will typically see the best results
  • Can be combined with chin augmentation or rhinoplasty to further enhance facial contours

 

Cheek and Chin Augmentation

Dr. Schreiber often performs neck liposuction in combination with a chin implant to deliver an enhanced appearance and profile.  Chin and cheek implants are very useful procedures to improve the shape and contour of the chin and cheeks.  Cheek implants can improve the projection and contour of the cheeks giving you those high cheek bones that you’ve always wanted.  Chin implants can help those with little chins on a profile or side view. They can also add width to narrow chins on the frontal view.  Men and women can both benefit from chin and cheek implants as this is a common aesthetic desire for both genders. The actual implants implant to be contoured to the desired shape and size to fit each person uniquely. 

Your plastic surgeon baltimore is pleased to offer his chin and cheek implant patients scarless options!  He can place the implants through small incisions hidden the gum lines.  This way, nobody will be able to see the scars from the procedure.

After the chin and/or cheek implant surgery, Dr. Schreiber recommends 5-7 days of recovery.  Light exercise can resume after 1 week with heavy weightlifting and cross training at 4-6 weeks.

 

Chin Augmentation Benefits

  • Minimize the appearance of jowls or a double chin.
  • Strengthen a weak, underdeveloped chin.
  • Change the appearance of chin dimpling.
  • Produce a more attractive triangular shape to the jawline.
  • Increase the height or width of the chin.
  • Bring balance to the nose and chin.

Deciding on a Nose Job

No Comments, , ,

baltimore plastic surgery

There are two main reasons patients decide to get rhinoplasty’s, to improve the aesthetic appearance and for functionality (breathing problems) or a combination of both.

During Consultation

Keep in mind that there is no such thing as a perfect nose. Surgery, though, can enhance facial features and emphasize your unique and natural beauty. At baltimore plastic surgery, Dr. Schreiber can describe the facial features that make you unique and tell you how changes would enhance your appearance.

He will evaluate the structures of your nose and other facial features. After this evaluation, he can tell you if your expectations are realistic.

Your plastic surgeon baltimore md, Dr. Jeffrey Schreiber, will review your history and physical during your rhinoplasty consultation.  He will review any breathing problems that might have as well.  During the physical exam, he will look inside your nose as well as outside to assess the entire nose and nasal structures.  Photographs will be taken, and then Dr. Schreiber will go over the plan in detail with you.  He will take as much time as you need answering all of your rhinoplasty questions.

Rhinoplasty: Step-by-Step

A nose job is usually done as an outpatient procedure, meaning there is no overnight stay. You’ll get general or local anesthesia. With general anesthesia, you’ll sleep through the operation. With local anesthesia, you will be sedated and your nose will be numbed so you are relaxed and unable to feel the pain.

The nose surgery will take about 2-4 hours, depending upon the work that needs to be done in order to meet your aesthetic goals and/or improve your breathing.  

 

To Improve Appearance

Plastic surgeon baltimore, Dr. Jeffrey Schreiber, uses several different techniques during rhinoplasty to shape and sculpt the nose.

  • From well-placed sutures in the nasal tip can narrow a bulbous tip to using small pieces of cartilage of the nasal tip to help with the narrowing process. 
  •  Bone and cartilage can contribute to a dorsal hump or bump on the nose giving a curved appearance to the nose of profile. 
  •  Dr. Schreiber uses special instruments to sculpt and smooth the top of the nose giving it a more aesthetic appearance.  

To Improve Functionality there are basically four main issues that can lead to this:

  • First, a deviated septum can block the airway in one or both of the nostrils.  The septoplasty procedure is used to remove the offending parts of the septum causing the airway obstruction. 
  • Second, the nostrils themselves can collapse upon breathing leading to breathing difficulties.  This is known as external nasal valve collapse and Dr. Schreiber can place cartilage grafts over the existing cartilage in order to “brace open” the nostrils. 
  • Third, the internal nasal valve can develop an acute angle leading to difficulty breathing.  This is caused by narrowing of the angle between the nasal septum and the upper lateral cartilages of the nose.  Your plastic surgeon baltimore md Dr. Schreiber can place small segments of cartilage between these existing cartilages to open up the internal nasal valve.  This is basically what the nasal strips do that people wear a night to help their breathing.
  • Fourth, bony structures deep inside the nose called turbinates can also become enlarged.  Dr. Schreiber can open up these structures during the rhinoplasty procedure to help with breathing.

Recovery takes about 1 week, with light exercise resuming in 1 week as well.  Heavy weightlifting and intense exercise can resume in 4-6 weeks.  Contact sports need to be avoided for 6 months after a rhinoplasty procedure that includes osteotomies to prevent re-injuring the nose.
