Fat Injections for Facial Rejuvenation
Posted August 12, 2008 6:55 AM
Daily I see patients who are seeking natural looking facial cosmetic enhancements. Fat
injections are an excellent option in facial rejuvenation and a very
common material used in achieving the natural results patient’s
desire. Fat injections have changed the results of facial plastic
surgery dramatically and have been performed by plastic surgeons for
decades.
There is no question that fat is an
ideal material for soft tissue augmentation, and that the results
obtained with fat injections can and most often are the most
natural-appearing.
Although there are many safe
injectable fillers such as Radiesse, Juvederm, Restylane, Perlane,
and Artefill, to name a few, on the market that can be utilized in
the same manner as body fat, there are some patients who feel secure
knowing that their own fat is being used to enhance their appearance.
Fat injections can be performed on
eyelid hollows, along the smile line, to fill sunken cheeks, for
filling sunken tear troughs under the eyes and is often used for
blepharoplasty correction when too much skin and or fat has been
removed in an eyelid surgical procedure.
If you would like to learn more about
fat injections please contact our office at 321-951-3223.

Removing and modifying tattoos is now a clinically proven reality and the Spectra VRM system is capable of handling an enormous range of amateur, professional, cosmetic and traumatic tattoos with little patient discomfort and exceptionally positive results.

Mohs Surgery for the removal of skin cancer
Posted August 05, 2008 9:20 AM
Many patients have questions about the Mohs Surgery. I would like
to take this time to address what Mohs Surgery is and why it's a
treatment of choice in the removal of some forms of skin cancer.
The Mohs Surgery provides the most precise method for removal of
the cancerous tissue, while sparing the greatest amount of healthy
tissue. For this reason, the Mohs surgery may result in a
significantly smaller surgical defect and less noticeable scarring,
as compared to other methods of skin cancer treatment.
The Mohs Surgery can be recommended for the removal of skin cancer
in areas where maximum preservation of healthy tissue is desirable
for cosmetic and functional purposes, such as the face. The Mohs
Surgery may also be recommended for lesions that have recurred
following prior treatment, or for lesions which have the greatest
likelihood of recurrence.
A consultation is the best way to
evaluate whether the Mohs Surgery is the most appropriate treatment
option for your particular diagnosis. A consultation is beneficial in
addressing your specific questions, ensuring that you are well
prepared for the procedure. If it is determined that Mohs Surgery is
not the best option for you, I can recommend appropriate alternative
therapies.
About Dr. Clevens:
Dr. Ross A. Clevens has performed over
2500 Mohs Surgeries and as a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon
he understands the importance of removing a cancerous tumor while
maintaining both the integrity and cosmetic appearance of healthy
tissue and skin.
