What are Biostimulators and How do They Work?

Are you bothered by lines and wrinkles and loss of facial volume due to aging or genetics? If so, biostimulators may be a great treatment option.

Hormone Therapy

Hormone Replacement Therapy and Menopause

Menopause, the end of the menstrual cycle, is natural, and most women transition through it without major problems — but of course, not all do. Commonly, women going through menopause experience life-altering symptoms from mood swings, hot flashes, and insomnia that affect their physical and emotional well-being. Some of the symptoms are caused by a sudden fluctuation in hormones like estrogen — the hormone responsible for periods — that signal the body to feel and do things that lead to negative symptoms. For example, the reduction of estrogen can cause the vaginal walls to become thinner, leading to pain during sexual intercourse. Because of this, hormone replacement therapy (HRT)...

Types of Anesthesia Used For Plastic Surgery Procedures

Anesthesia refers to drugs or chemicals that put people in a controlled state that causes temporary sensation loss induced for medical reasons.

The goal, however, is to have the nose blend or “fit” with the rest of the face so it is essentially not the first thing that you notice. This is likely why so many people daydream about having a different one -- different in size, shape, angle, or all three. In fact, many do more than fantasize. They act on it. Hence, rhinoplasty, known colloquially as a "nose job," is one of the most common among cosmetic surgical procedures. This operation sits at the intersection of...
