New research findings show that BOTOX^® Cosmetic injections may have added rejuvenation benefits for your skin. While BOTOX^® Cosmetic is used as primarily an anti-aging treatment, researchers are studying other beneficial effects, including whether the injectable may actually help promote the production of elastin and collagen, proteins that keep your skin firm.

As you age, repeated facial expressions eventually lead to wrinkles. Also with age, your skin’s levels of elastin and collagen decline. BOTOX^® Cosmetic can have an antioxidant effect for your skin, giving it time to reproduce those elastin and collagen proteins, all the while decreasing the appearance of wrinkles.

At Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery, we offer a wide range of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures including BOTOX^® Cosmetic to address the following:

• Forehead wrinkles
• Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
• “Frown lines” between the eyebrows
• Lines in your nasolabial folds

We all know that the best way to get the firm, toned figure you want is through diet and exercise. However, for many residents of Washington DC who eat healthy and have a great exercise regimen, there are still a few areas that just don’t seem to respond. If this describes your situation, you may be a good candidate for liposuction.

If you have worked hard to get where you are and you are looking to put the finishing touch on your physique, liposuction can be ideal. Men and women who are close to their ideal weight, have great muscle tone and skin with great elasticity are ideal candidates for liposuction.

In addition, good liposuction candidates:

• Are non-smokers
• Have good overall health
• Have a positive outlook and realistic expectations for the outcome of their procedure
• Have no history of complications due to anesthesia

The best way to determine if you are a good liposuction candidate is to get a consultation from the experienced and board-certified plastic surgeons at Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery. During your initial consultation, Dr. James Bruno or Dr. C. Coleman Brown will listen carefully to your desires, assess your areas of concern, and help you determine if liposuction is ideally suited to meet your needs.

Among other things, the aging process can leave your cheeks hollow, giving you a tired and worn out appearance. Perhaps you have always struggled with feeling that your cheekbones are flat or undefined and that your facial contours are not what you hoped. Cheek augmentation can help restore a youthful, appealing look of full cheeks and prominent cheekbones. Even if you have never had the high cheekbones and full cheeks, cheek augmentation can give you a better contour and a more pleasing appearance.

Good candidates are adults who are non-smokers. Like any cosmetic procedure, it is also essential that you are in good overall health.

Cheek augmentation is an ideal option if you want to:

• Restore a youthful appearance
• Plump hollow cheeks
• Improve facial contours
• Provide a permanent solution where soft tissue fillers have been used in the past

To discover how cheek augmentation can accentuate the features you desire, please contact Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery using the form at the right side of the page, or call (301) 215-5955 today to schedule a consultation. We serve patients in Washington DC and the surrounding areas of Chevy Chase, Maryland, and Fairfax and Arlington, Virginia.

When you are looking for a plastic surgeon in the Washington DC area, your choices can seem overwhelming. It is important to neither become discouraged by your options, nor to choose the first plastic surgeon you stumble across. Your surgeon will play a direct role in your comfort, safety, and ultimate aesthetic results.

When you are looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon, you should keep in mind that this procedure requires both skill and experience. Your nose is one of your most prominent features. If you choose to have it altered, you deserve someone who can correct its imperfections and bring it into ideal proportions with the rest of your face.

Your rhinoplasty surgeon should be board-certified and have hospital privileges. Not only should he have hospital privileges, your plastic surgery procedure should be performed in an accredited facility with attending medical staff.

Your plastic surgeon should also be able to provide you with pictures of his rhinoplasty results. If he does not have a rhinoplasty before and after gallery, ask for pictures during your initial consultation.

Your consultation is incredibly important. This meeting gives you an opportunity to ask questions about your procedure and to gauge your comfort with a plastic surgeon’s skills, staff, and experience.  You should feel free to meet with as many plastic surgeons as necessary to find the one you feel is best for you.

Most people who undergo plastic surgery do so to improve their appearance and feel better about themselves. But did you know the benefits of your procedure can go far beyond the way you view yourself? A new study suggests that undergoing plastic surgery can also impact the way others perceive your personality.

According to this study, published earlier this month in the journal JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery, people rated women who had undergone facial rejuvenation procedures as being more attractive, likeable, feminine, and having better social skills than women who hadn’t undergone any plastic surgery.

The study evaluated the responses of 173 people – 63 men and 110 women – who viewed photos of 30 women who had undergone facial plastic surgery procedures. The before-and-after photos were mixed in different groupings to avoid a comparison bias. Overall, the study found that the “after” photos received higher rankings for social skills, likeability, attractiveness, and femininity.

These findings most likely occurred due to the fact that our faces convey certain personality traits to others, even if we’re not intending to do so. By altering your physical appearance, you can also alter the way people’s brains perceive your personality. While it may be an unintended benefit of your plastic surgery procedure, it’s nonetheless a very powerful one that can help you in all of your personal and professional interactions.

At Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery, we offer a wide range of facial plastic surgery procedures to help you reverse the signs of aging and look your very best. Find out how we can help you achieve your aesthetic goals by speaking with Dr. Bruno or Dr. Brown in person.

The U.S. economy continues to recover, and one sign of better financial times is an increase in cosmetic procedures performed in 2014. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recently released the 2014 statistics on cosmetic procedures, and their report indicated that the number of total procedures rose 3% from the previous year.

Interestingly, one of the procedures experiencing the greatest surge in popularity was buttock augmentation. All three of the most popular buttock augmentation techniques were performed more frequently than they were in 2013. In 2014:

• 11,505 buttock augmentations with fat grafting were performed (up 15%)
• 3,500 buttock lifts were performed (up 44%)
• 1,800 buttock implant procedures were performed (up 98%)

In addition, male plastic surgery procedures continued their recent trend of increasing popularity. The most common procedures performed on men were:

• Pectoral implants (1,054 procedures in 2014)
• Male breast reduction to correct gynecomastia (26,000 procedures performed in 2014)

Minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedures continue to be extremely popular. Overall, 15.6 million minimally invasive procedures were performed in 2014. The top 5 most popular nonsurgical treatments were:

• BOTOX^® Cosmetic (6.7 million procedures)
• Dermal fillers (2.3 million procedures)
• Chemical peels (1.2 million procedures)
• Laser hair removal (1.1 million procedures)
• Microdermabrasion (882,000 procedures)

While buttock augmentation procedures and nonsurgical treatments experienced a sharp increase last year, many of the most popular plastic surgery procedures saw a decline in numbers in 2014. Only liposuction experienced an increase, up 5% from 2013. The other four most popular plastic surgery procedures saw a slight drop in numbers last year:

• Breast augmentation (down 1%)
• Rhinoplasty (down 2%)
• Eyelid surgery (down 4%)
• Facelift (down 4%)

As the economy continues to improve in 2015, it’s likely that the number of cosmetic procedures will continue to gradually rise. At Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery, we offer a wide range of surgical and minimally invasive, nonsurgical treatment options to help you look and feel your best.
