Rhinoplasty, nose reshaping, is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures. Only breast augmentation and liposuction are requested more often than rhinoplasty, and for good reason. The shape and holistic balance of your nose with the rest of your facial features can really affect each person’s perception of you and how much confidence you face the world with each day.

When deciding whether rhinoplasty is right for you, it is important to take several factors into consideration.

Advantages

• Love your look! The main advantage of nose surgery is waking up to a face in the mirror that you love.
• Gain confidence. Hand in hand with loving your look is gaining confidence in yourself. When your appearance reflects your best self, then your inner beauty can shine through.
• Breathe easier. For some patients, reshaping the nose eliminates breathing difficulties, including snoring and sleep apnea.
• Get individualized treatment. At Allure Plastic Surgery, we know that no two noses are the same. We discuss and provide the right surgical options for each patient to achieve his or her individual goals.

Disadvantages

• Cost of rhinoplasty. Cost should be taken into consideration when planning your surgery, but remember that you are making an investment in yourself for a lifetime. At Allure Plastic Surgery, we offer a variety of financing options to make sure that your cosmetic surgery dreams can become reality.
• Limitations of results. Although your nose can be reshaped to reduce a nasal bump or sculpt a more refined nasal tip, nose surgery cannot completely alter your nose, and you wouldn’t want it to. The goal of a great rhinoplasty is to create balance and symmetry with your nose and facial features.

The best way to understand whether rhinoplasty is the right choice for you is to talk with one of our experienced plastic surgeons about your personal beauty goals and listen to our recommendations for how to achieve them.

On a recent episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Khloe Kardashian tried some breast implant sizers on with her sports bra to see how larger breasts would look and feel on her petite frame if she committed to a larger breast size with breast augmentation.

Her sister Kim, coached her through what life might be like with larger breasts, encouraging Khloe to work out with the realistically sized implants in to get a feel for how they would impact her physically.

After trying the implant sizers out, Khloe said, “I don’t feel like it hurts to go get a consultation, see what my options are, and just to see how serious I am about this whole boob job thing.”

A great recommendation! If you are considering enhancing the size of your chest, the best thing you can do is schedule an appointment with an experienced plastic surgeon to discuss your options in full.

We can help you select the right size and type of implant to achieve the results you want.

November is National Healthy Skin Month. Celebrate by refreshing your skin care routine with these helpful tips.

• Wash your face daily with gentle cleansers. You probably already have a morning beauty routine, but washing your face after workouts and washing your makeup off before you sleep are important steps to keeping your skin looking youthful and healthy.
• Use sunscreen daily. Recent surveys showed that 70% of women aged 18 to 34 don’t wear sunscreen daily. The suns harmful rays are one of the biggest culprits in prematurely aging skin. Take care of your skin with a daily application of SPF 30 broad-spectrum sunscreen.
• Sleep well. A good night’s sleep does more than rest your mind. It also allows your body time to rebuild cells and rebalance your hydration. Aim for seven to nine hours of sleep a night, and you will really feel like you got beauty rest.
• Eat a balanced diet. Putting healthful foods in your body, gives your skin the nutrients it needs for a healthy glow. Remember to drink plenty of water too to keep your skin hydrated.
• Moisturize. Apply your favorite moisturizer directly out of the shower while your skin is still damp. This will help to lock in moisture and keep your skin feel soft and smooth throughout the day.

We all know that sun and time are some of the biggest causes of facial wrinkles, but a new study published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal shows that your sleeping position can cause wrinkles too!

According to one of the authors of the study, “Sleep wrinkles form in response to distortion created when the face is pressed against any sleep surface. They tend to worsen over time due to repetition combined with thinning of the skin and decreased elasticity as we age.”

The amount of time spent in sleeping positions, such as side sleeping and stomach sleeping, increase the likelihood of sleep wrinkles. But it isn’t easy to control which position you sleep in. Back sleeping is the best because it does not compress the face the way other positions do, but only about 30 percent of people sleep in this position.

To alleviate sleep wrinkles, you can try to sleep on your back, but you should definitely take care of your skin with sunscreen, good nutrition, and great skin care products.

You can also seek cosmetic treatments that increase collagen production, like Fraxel® laser treatments, to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Are you ready to fight back against the wrinkles that are making you look much older than you feel? At Allure Plastic Surgery, our experienced plastic surgeons can help you achieve your beauty goals with both surgical and non-surgical options.

Plastic surgery is a fast-growing field in both scientific advances and popularity. In the last decade, we have seen everything from the FDA approval of gel-filled breast implants to the astronomical rise of non-surgical alternatives, such as Botox® and dermal fillers. And more people than ever are choosing plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures to look and feel their best.

The future of plastic surgery is quickly advancing and regenerative medicine seems to be at its forefront. Researchers are already developing regenerative-medicine based techniques to correct congenital anomalies and aid in breast reconstruction for breast cancer survivors, among other pursuits. Using stem cells, growth factors, PRP [platelet-rich plasma] and/or synthetic scaffolds, researchers are investigating new ways to help the body heal damaged tissue and repair the effects of aging by unlocking the regenerative potential of these substances and techniques.

In the future, regenerative treatments could replace current anti-aging treatments like Botox and leave you looking younger and healthier than ever!
