At Allure Plastic Surgery in New York, we work with each patient to achieve the results that best suit their body and cosmetic goals. There is no right size breast implant for everyone. There is only the right size for you right now. Our experienced breast surgeons can help you choose the breast implant size that works well with your body.

You may have read about women, like Lacey Wildd, who have undergone multiple breast augmentations for increasingly larger breasts. It may be difficult to imagine wanting size QQQ breasts, but it is true that some women feel the need to increase their breast size after wearing implants for a while.

In considering how big is too big for your breast implants, you should think about your own lifestyle and how larger breasts will fit your body and your daily routine. Breasts that are too large can limit physical activities and the clothing choices available to you. The excess weight of large breasts can also cause back or neck pain and lead to sagging over time.

Are you interested in discussing the right size breast implants to achieve your aesthetic goals? Call Allure Plastic Surgery today at (212) 661-2563 to schedule your consultation with an experienced New York plastic surgeon. We welcome patients throughout New York City, Manhattan, and Long Island.

Choosing to undergo rhinoplasty is a personal decision for each of our New York area patients. You should weigh your own personal pros and cons about the procedure and discuss your rhinoplasty in detail with an experienced plastic surgeon before you elect nose surgery.

The advantages to rhinoplasty may include:

• Increased self-confidence. Your nose is one of the most prominent features on your face. Knowing that you are facing the world with a nose that provides balance and beauty to your appearance will increase your confidence.
• Better health. A side effect of increased self-confidence is taking better care of yourself. Whether or not your rhinoplasty leads to easier breathing, it can certainly lead to a more fulfilling lifestyle when you embrace the world with confidence.
• Easier breathing. For some patients, rhinoplasty can alleviate breathing difficulties caused by a deviated septum or sleep apnea.

The reasons you may want to reconsider rhinoplasty may include:

• Unrealistic expectations. Although rhinoplasty can feel life changing, it cannot change your life. You should only undergo plastic surgery to please yourself, not others, and you should talk with your surgeon about realistic expectations for the outcome of your procedure.
• Length of recovery time. Rhinoplasty is major surgery and will require several days to weeks of recovery time depending on the invasiveness of your procedure. You need to be prepared for taking adequate time to rest and heal.
• Cost. Although financing options are available, rhinoplasty is an elective procedure that is generally not covered by insurance. You should discuss the cost of your specific procedure with your surgeon.

Ariel Winter, the eighteen-year-old star of Modern Family, made headlines last June when she underwent a breast reduction to reduce her 32F sized breasts to a 34D.  In February, she showed off her new body confidence at the SAG awards by choosing a dress that left her scars visible.

She is making waves once again by writing an emotional essay for Motto, a website from the editors of Time, about choosing breast reduction. In her own words, Ariel described some of her reasons for undergoing a breast reduction:

“It’s really difficult to be such a small girl and have so much weight on your chest. You physically hurt. You can’t find clothes that fit right. I couldn’t find a cute bathing suit. Everything looked like I was trying to be ‘sexy.’ It didn’t help that I didn’t look like any of my friends my age.”

Winter emphasized that her choice wasn’t just about how she looked, it was about how she felt. “Having so much weight on my frame was affecting me psychologically. I was uncomfortable and unhappy. I chose surgery because of how I felt, not because of what anyone else thought.”

And she shared how the surgery changed her life: “Afterward, I automatically felt so much happier and just better physically. My back and shoulders didn’t hurt anymore! The first thing I wanted to do was go clothing shopping because I was so excited to be able to find things that fit properly instead of hiding in a baggy sweater. That meant the world to me.”

Are you always embarrassed by the appearance of your “double chin” in photos of yourself? You are not alone. In a recent study, more than 80 percent of respondents wished they could correct their double chin.[1]

At Allure Plastic Surgery in New York, we offer our patients the revolutionary non-surgical treatment Kybella to reduce the appearance of the neck fat that causes a double chin.  

Made from deoxycholic acid, Kybella is a naturally occurring substance in your body that aids in breaking down and absorbing fat. When we inject Kybella into your chin fat, it breaks down those fat cells and keeps them from storing more fat.  

Treatments only take about 15 minutes and require no downtime for recovery.  You may need four to six treatments, spaced about a month apart, to achieve your final results.

Many of our New York patients have already discovered the dramatic enhancement that Kybella provides.

Would you like to say goodbye to your double chin and achieve a more confident and youthful appearance?
