Posted on by dcadmin

The face of plastic surgery is no longer just female as more men are more interested in finding top plastic surgeons. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the number of procedures performed on men rose 29 percent from 2000 to 2018. Drooping eyes and necks can age a man beyond his years and lawyers and entertainers alike are lining up to keep their appearances young.

Men of All Ages and All Walks of Life Are Requesting Surgery from Top Plastic Surgeons

As culture norms begin to shift, more men are turning to various procedures to help them maintain a youthful appearance.Washington DC Blepharoplasty - DC Eyelid Surgery

Top Surgeries for Men in 2018:

  1. Nose reshaping (Rhinoplasty): In this procedure, doctors will either use careful surgical techniques or in-office fillers to reshape your nose for a more flattering appearance.
  2. Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): In this procedure, excess tissue is removed from the eyelid area and surrounding areas for a more youthful appearance.
  3. Liposuction: This takes care of stubborn pockets of fat. Through careful, targeted suction, excess fat is completely and permanently removed from your trouble spots.
  4. Breast Reduction in Men (Gynecomastia): This condition affects approximately 40 to 60 percent of men. With this procedure, men suffering from undesirable chest appearance can obtain a more masculine look by removing excess skin and tissue above the pectoral muscles.

Not all men went under the knife for their procedure. With over 450,000 procedures, Botox was the number one procedure done by men in 2018.

“I had an armpit sucked out, which was one of the best things. It’s a big secret, but I don’t care. It was nine years ago or so. And I had two inches to my armpit. Now it’s back though, so now I’ve gotta pay for [liposuction] again. It was so easy. It made me feel better in dresses, I felt more confident. It was the dumbest, stupidest thing I’ve ever done. The dumbest, but I like it, whatever. I have no regrets, honestly.”

A Bruno | Brown’s Patients Experience with In-Office Liposuction

We spoke with one Bruno | Brown patient about her experience with liposuction and why she chose Bruno | Brown for her in-office liposuction:

Why did you get in-office liposuction?
I was cursed with saddlebags. Even as a skinny, awkward teen, I was a size 3 on the top and 5 on the bottom. 15 years and 20 pounds later my thighs certainly haven’t gotten any better.

Why I chose Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery
I did a LOT of research online, asked friends and read reviews. I had consultations at a couple of practices and ultimately decided on Bruno|Brown Plastic Surgery. Their reputation is superb, the staff is funny and kind, and the doctors make you feel incredibly safe in their hands.

Dr. Bruno was just so easy to work with. His calm and kind demeanor made me feel very relaxed about everything!

What do you do during the procedure?
I was comfortable enough that we chatted almost the whole time. I’m a talker, and was feeling pretty good from the pills, so I asked a lot of questions, talked about where everyone was from, travel, all sorts of things. It was a wonderful distraction.

BodyTite: Washington, DC’s New Breast-lift Option

Posted on by dcadmin

Have you been thinking about getting a breast-lift but are intimidated by the procedure and recovery time? BodyTite might be the right option for you.

 

BodyTite: The new, less invasive alternative to a traditional breast-lift.

BodyTite was recently cleared by the FDA and is quickly gaining popularity due to its quick results and minimal scarring. This procedure uses radio-frequency aided lipolysis (RFAL) for three-dimensional remodeling and contouring. RFAL melts and removes excess fat through a tiny incision made in an inconspicuous location. Unlike other forms of liposuction, BodyTite removes fat while it simultaneously tightens the skin.

The Ideal Candidate for a BodyTite Breast-liftBodytite

BodyTite was featured in a recent issue of Harper’s Bazaar Magazine. The technology behind BodyTite is a popular option for someone looking for a breast-lift. Harper’s Bazaar talked to Elie Levine, M.D., a plastic surgeon in New York, who spoke about the procedure and its ideal candidate:

“While the results are ‘real and predictable’ says Levine, the ideal candidate is someone with a C cup or smaller, a body mass index of less than 30, and skin that’s healthy enough to crank out collagen. That’s because once the procedure is over, RF’s[radio-frequency] real work can start- by gradually growing collagen. You won’t be wowed immediately post-treatment, but what follows is ‘quite remarkable’ Levine adds. ‘Most people begin to notice the lift a few weeks after, and it really becomes evident two to three months out, with breasts continuing to tighten and lift for up to 24 months.’”

In addition to a Breast-Lift, other areas BodyTite can target include:

  • Abdomen
  • Hips
  • Buttocks
  • Thighs
  • Arms
  • Back

This procedure usually takes one to three hours and no overnight hospital stay is required. The DC-based BodyTite procedure results in less swelling, bruising, and less recovery time than a traditional liposuction procedure.

Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery: The Best Choice for your BodyTite Procedure

If you are considering BodyTite, make sure to choose a plastic surgeon you can trust. The knowledge and capability of your plastic surgeon translates directly into the quality of your results. The doctors at Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery will be with you through every step of the process- from the initial consultation to recovery.

We look forward to seeing you for your BodyTite procedure in DC or a consultation soon.

Bodytite

What is BodyTite?

BodyTite is a procedure that helps contour your body by targeting problem areas that have not been responsive to diet and exercise. This form of liposuction is powered by radio-frequency aided lipolysis (RFAL) for three-dimensional remodeling and contouring. RFAL melts and removes excess fat through a tiny incision made in an inconspicuous location.

The DC-based BodyTite procedure results in less swelling, bruising, and less recovery time than a traditional liposuction procedure.

An ideal candidate for this procedure has specific goals in mind for targeting areas on the body which have not been responsive to other weight loss efforts such as diet and exercise.

Areas which BodyTite can target include:

  • Abdomen
  • Hips
  • Buttocks
  • Thighs
  • Arms
  • Back

Why Choose Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery for Your DC BodyTite Procedure?

 

In wrong or inexperienced hands, the tools used this procedure can be very dangerous. It is important to choose a plastic surgeon who is not only board-certified but has significant experience in performing this type of procedure like the doctors at Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery. We will work with you to determine if this is the right choice to meet your specific goals, or if the procedure can be used in conjunction with liposuction to meet your needs.

At Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery we take a holistic approach to this surgery; we consider your overall appearance rather than focusing only on targeting specific problem areas. This is important for body contouring procedures as the goal is to reshape your figure.

The Benefits of Liposuction DC

Posted on by dcadmin

Liposuction DCIf diet and exercise alone have not been enough to achieve your goals, consider the benefits of liposuction DC.

Liposuction DC can completely change your appearance by removing fat and flattening your problem areas.

Who Should Consider Liposuction DC?

During liposuction DC, fat is removed through suction utilizing a thin metal tube, or cannula. This process can completely reshape problem areas and drastically decrease the size of areas, such as your abdomen or thighs. This procedure can be a solution for patients who have tirelessly tried diet and exercise without progressing toward their goals. It only takes one to four hours and has a recovery time of only three to five days. Patients also do not need to stay overnight at the hospital.

Good candidates for this procedure are typically within thirty percent of their ideal weight, have firm skin and good muscle tone, and are in good overall health. They should not smoke (or are prepared to quit for the duration of their surgery and recovery) and have one or more problem areas where they would like fat to be removed.

Some patients choose liposuction DC because, while they have otherwise normal body weight, they carry excess weight in a certain area such as the outer thigh region.  This weight can be due to any number of causes such as genetics, aging, pregnancy, or prior surgery. Read more about the reasons for choosing this procedure with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Some areas that can be treated include:

  • Abdomen
  • Flanks, also known as love handles or muffin top
  • Neck and jawline
  • Buttocks
  • Thighs
  • Back
  • Calves and ankles
  • Arms
  • Hips

What are my Liposuction DC Options?

Once you have decided that this procedure is right for you, experienced plastic surgeons like Drs. Bruno or Brown will work with you to determine which type of liposuction is right for you:

  • Traditional tumescent liposuction
  • Body-Tite or SmartLipo
  • Power-assisted liposuction
