Am I a candidate for Micro-needling with PRP?

If you experience fine lines and wrinkles, you may want to consider the micro-needling procedure to reduce the signs of aging.

Micro-needling Therapy is a non-invasive procedure that triggers the body’s natural healing process by producing new collagen and elastin and improving the blood supply. Combined with the body’s own PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) the healing process increases significantly and virtually eliminating side effects.

Why Should I Consider Micro-needling?

Micro-needling can penetrate the top layer of skin while leaving it undamaged. Micro-needling will trigger the bodies repair process until the desired level of skin rejuvenation is reached. The results are remarkable and can last up to a year post micro-needling session. The most appealing aspect of micro-needling is that it is safe to use on almost all skin types and has very little downtime.

Posted on by dcadmin

If you’re feeling self-conscious about the size or shape of your breasts, you may want to consider breast augmentation. Breast augmentation can increase the fullness, symmetry and projection of your breasts to create the look you desire.

We offer several different types of breast augmentation, including the following:

Breast Augmentation: This procedure allows women to choose from saline implants, silicone implants and cohesive gel (“gummy bear”) implants.
•      Increases breast symmetry and projection
•      Increases and reshapes cleavage
•      Returns breast volume and shape lost after aging, pregnancy, or weight loss

• Targets unwanted fatty deposits

Breast lift: Don’t let the fear of aging take away your self-confidence. This procedure reduces the appearance of aging on dropping breasts by restoring a youthful, perky chest.

Every woman is different which is why Dr. Bruno and Dr. Brown will work closely with you to achieve results you’ll love. At Bruno|Brown, our patient’s experience is just as important as the surgical result.

Advantages of a Tummy Tuck

Posted on by dcadmin

Abdominoplasty, also called a tummy tuck, is beneficial if you have stretched, hanging skin around your midriff. A tummy tuck:

  • Removes excess fat
  • Removes sagging skin
  • Tightens stretched abdominal muscles

A tummy tuck may also eliminate stretch marks if they are located on the skin to be removed. A tummy tuck is often included in a mommy makeover because it removes loose skin and tightens the muscles stretched by pregnancy.

Fat and skin hanging from your body can feel devastating. This stretched skin is unlikely to regain elasticity, and diet and exercise will not eliminate it. A tummy tuck lets you achieve the midriff appearance you want, rejuvenating the contour of your body and improving overall body shape.

A major advantage to a tummy tuck is the longevity of results. Unless you gain back a significant amount of weight, your tummy should remain flatter and tighter for many years. A tummy tuck cannot stop how aging and weight-gain affects your body, but it can provide long-term results if you pursue a healthy lifestyle.

If you live in or around Washington DC and want to find out if a tummy tuck is right for you, please contact Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery using the form at the right side of the page or call (877) 427-7888 today to schedule a consultation.

New Study Finds BOTOX® Cosmetic May Rejuvenate Skin

Posted on by dcadmin

Washington DC BOTOX Cosmetic Surgeon - Chevy Chase, MDNew 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

Please contact Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery using the form at the right side of the page or call (877) 427-7888 today to schedule a BOTOX® Cosmetic consultation. We serve patients in Washington DC, Chevy Chase, Fairfax, Arlington and the surrounding areas.

Am I a Candidate for Liposuction?

Posted on by dcadmin

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.

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.

Cheek augmentation is an ideal option if you want to:

Posted on by dcadmin

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.

If you live in or around Washington DC, Chevy Chase, Fairfax, or Arlington and are looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon, please contact Chevy Chase Plastic Surgery using the form at the right side of the page or call (877) 427-7888 today to schedule an initial consultation.
