The Breast Lift Procedure at Reynolds Plastic Surgery Center of El Paso

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 22:20:07 GMT

Over the years, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and gravity take their toll on a woman's breasts. As the skin loses its elasticity, the breasts often lose their shape and firmness and begin to sag. A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, is a surgical procedure to raise and reshape sagging breasts--at least, for a time. No surgery can permanently delay the effects of gravity.

Mastopexy can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple. If your breasts are small or have lost volume--for example, after pregnancy--breast implants inserted in conjunction with mastopexy can increase both their firmness and their size.

We Offer a Consultative Approach to the Mastopexy Procedure

Located in downtown El Paso, Reynolds Plastic Surgery Center specializes in providing state-of-the-art techniques while addressing your specific needs and desires. Dr. Reynolds uses computer simulation to formulate a breast lift procedure that is best for your body.

Ultrasonic Liposuction in El Paso

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:58:48 GMT

An emerging tool in body contouring, ultrasonic liposuction (also known as ultrasonic assisted liposuction or UAL) uses sound waves to disrupt fat cells and offers an effective solution to excessive fat. It’s combined with conventional suction assisted lipectomy to obtain maximum results in certain areas. The UAL procedure is often used in conjunction with tumescent liposuction to achieve optimal results.

Ultrasonic liposuction essentially liquefies (or melts) fat cells in a given area before it is removed via suction. Because it causes minimal blood loss and little bruising, the UAL procedure is the preferred method for removing fat from areas such as the neck, stomach, “love handles,” ankles, and chin.

The UAL Procedure

While most patients appreciate the faster recovery times and better tissue retraction, there is the danger of seroma, or the appearance of excess fluid where the fat has been removed. Aside from this, ultrasonic liposuction is able to treat dense, larger pockets of fat at one time. And because it tightens the skin as Dr. Reynolds removes the fat, the UAL procedure is an alternate solution for those with baggy skin.

Dr. Reynolds, whose office is located in downtown El Paso, will sit down and discuss your needs and desires with you, formulating a UAL procedure plan that is best for your body. Dr. Reynolds and his knowledgeable team members are always available to answer your questions – contact the center to schedule an ultrasonic liposuction consultation or call 915-532-6662 to speak with one of his assistants.

Breast Reduction Surgery in El Paso

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:48:41 GMT

Women with very large breasts may experience a variety of medical problems caused by the excessive weight as well as back and neck pain, skin irritation, skeletal deformities, and breathing problems. Bra straps may leave indentations in shoulders and unusually large breasts can make a woman - or a teenage girl - feel extremely self-conscious. Often, only a breast reduction surgery can solve these problems.

Breast reduction, technically known as reduction mammaplasty, is designed for such women. The procedure removes fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breasts, making them smaller, lighter, and firmer. It can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple. The goal is to give the woman smaller, better-shaped breasts in proportion with the rest of her body.

Personalized Reduction Mammaplasty Consultations

Reynolds Plastic Surgery Center in El Paso, Texas specializes in state-of-the-art surgical techniques, addressing your specific needs and desires after a detailed, personalized consultation. Dr. Reynolds uses the latest computer simulation to formulate a breast reduction surgery that works with your body.

The Best Option in El Paso for Abdominoplasty

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 20:08:57 GMT

Abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, eliminates excessive fat around the abdomen. Most males accumulate fat in the abdomen and flanks (side handles) despite attempts at weight loss, and these areas continue to be a problem. Effective waist contouring is usually achieved through several options that are available to deal with this problem, including ultrasonic liposuction, conventional liposuction and excision. Often, a combination of these waist contouring options gives maximal results.

Along with abdominoplasty, liposuction is used to reduce the fat deposits in the side handle area or to remove excess tissue in the abdomen to create the look of a “six-pack,” or simply more definition. This type of cosmetic surgery for men works best for those who are close to their ideal weight.

Waist Contouring Gives Your Abdominal Area Noticeable Definition

Abdominoplasty can help men who feel self-conscious about their appearance, and our team offers a wide variety of solutions to give you the best results possible. When you come to our office, we will sit down and discuss your needs and desires, and through computer simulation, we will formulate a customized plan that is best for you.
