Injectable Fillers – Albany

jen — Mon, 14 May 2012 21:05:29 +0000

Our skin is the largest human organ. It covers our entire body and battles the elements for our entire lives. It is amazingly durable, but eventually is starts to break down. The wear effects it and it becomes less and less elastic and durable. Fine lines, creases, wrinkles and sagging begin to take the place of smooth, tight skin, particularly in the face and neck. With Albany Injectable Fillers, Dr. Falk can take out some of those fine lines, creases, and wrinkles to create a smoother, more youthful looking appearance yet again.

Injectable Fillers act just as they sound, “fillers” that get injected into your skin to fill out the creases and wrinkles. It’s basically playing the part that your natural, good fat was playing that gets lost as we age. There are a couple different kind of injectable fillers such as Restylane, Radiesse and Juvederm. Dr. Falk will walk you through the pros and cons of each and help you find the right treatment for you. Injectable fillers are perfect for patients who desire a more youthful appearance without the risks of invasive surgery and constrictive down time.

Dr. Falk and staff believe that results will speak for themselves. As you may have heard, “A picture is worth a thousand words,” and we often find that cliche to be the truth. Most patients first judgments of a plastic surgeon are based not only on their education and background, but on the results seen in their previous patients.

Finding an example of a prior patient who had a similar issue as the one you are struggling with and being able to see their results, either good or bad, can be very powerful. It is recommended that if you find a result you are especially happy with and desire a similar outcome, that you print off the picture to bring it in to your consultation. Visual aides are always a good idea to ensure proper clarity in communicating what you want with your doctor.

Rhinoplasty procedures can fit largely into two categories: aesthetic and functional. Aesthetic issues leading to Rhinoplasty would include dissatisfaction with the overall size or shape of the nose or nostrils, or indentations and bumps on the nose. Functional issues would include structural problems which make it difficult to breathe through the nose. There are also reconstructive Rhinoplasty’s designed to correct issues caused by trauma or disease and revision Rhinoplasty’s which are correcting past Rhinoplasty’s.

Albany Body Contouring

jen — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 00:22:27 +0000

If you are tired of not getting the results you desire on your own, are in good health and are in a normal, healthy weight range, you may be a good candidate for Liposuction. Liposuction can be performed on nearly any part of the body including lower legs, hips, thighs, buttocks, back, abdomen, chest, upper arms, neck, along the jaw line and cheeks.

The Plastic Surgeon will make several small incisions in the previously marked area. He or she will insert a long, skinny tube which is called a cannula, in a forward and backward motion. The cannula will tunnel into the fat layer and remove the fat cells with the use of a suction. This will be repeated until the appropriate amount has been removed. There is a limit on how much fat can be removed and the more that is removed the more dangerous the procedure is. It is important to understand that Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity or a weight loss solution but rather a way to remove localized stubborn pockets of fat in an otherwise healthy figure.

About Face – Real People Facing Changes

Not many people think about their earlobes as an indicator of aging, but in many ways changes that occur in the earlobes are a good illustration of the aging process in general. As we age, our skin looses volume, and an earlobe is a perfect example; they deflate much like a balloon deflates. Earlobes, along with other sensitive areas like lips, and eyelids, can be restored to full volume with plumbing agents, the best of which is your body’s own fat. Dr. Falk performs fat grafting in his office using a relatively simple harvesting process. It is an excellent material because it feels soft, looks natural is permanent, and most importantly it is all yours!
