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.

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.

  • Produce a more attractive triangular shape to the jawline.

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.
