NJ Breast Implant Replacement - Why Remove & Replace Breast Implants

POSTED ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 07, 2021 AT 9:02 AM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures. Breast augmentation uses breast implants to improve the shape, size, and symmetry of the breasts.

While breast implants are long-lasting, some patients may choose to undergo breast implant replacement. Breast implant replacement is performed to remove breast implants and exchange them for a new pair of breast implants.

When Should I Consider Breast Implant Replacement?

In the majority of cases, breast implant replacement is performed to correct minor cosmetic concerns a patient may have with their breast implants.

On the other hand, breast implant replacement is sometimes performed to treat a medical complication related to breast implants, such as capsular contracture or breast implant rupture.

While medical complications due to breast implants are possible, Dr. Asaadi has a 100% success rate of no capsular contracture or implant rupture throughout his career.

Exchange Silicone Breast Implants To Saline Breast Implants

At Asaadi Plastic Surgery, we only offer saline breast implants. Saline implants provide more natural-looking results and have been proven to be a safer and more effective option. Many patients choose to remove their silicone breast implants and replace them with saline breast implants for the most natural-looking results possible.

Increase Breast Implant Size

Breast implant replacement can be performed if a patient desires larger breasts. During this procedure, the current breast implants are removed and replaced with larger breast implants to help patients achieve their treatment goals.

Decrease Breast Implant Size

In some cases, patients may decide they wish to have smaller breasts. Patients who have lost a signifigant amount of weight for example may feel that their current breast implants no longer complement their figure as well as they once have. To correct this, Dr. Asaadi can remove breast implants and replace them with smaller breast implants to better fit a patient’s figure.

Improve Results From A Previous Surgeon

Sometimes, patients are unsatisfied with their breast implant results from a previous plastic surgeon. Dr. Asaadi offers breast implant revision with breast implant replacement to correct any unnatural-looking results from a previous procedure.

Treat A Breast Implant Rupture

Breast implant replacement surgery is sometimes performed for medical concerns, such as treating a breast implant rupture. A breast implant may rupture or leak following a fall or accident. Damaged implants can be removed and replaced, or simply removed.

Correct Capsular Contracture

Capsular contracture is a medical condition where tissue around the breast implant tightens and becomes too firm. To treat capsular contracture, the breast implants must be removed completly or removed and replaced with new breast implants.

Microneedling & PRP New Jersey - Treat Wrinkles, Acne Scars, & More

POSTED ON MONDAY, MARCH 08, 2021 AT 8:00 AM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

As you age, your body begins to produce less elastin and collagen, which is what keeps your skin youthful and firm. With less elastin and collagen, wrinkles, fine lines, and creases may form and cause you to look older than you actually are. Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, combined with PRP can improve the texture and appearance of the skin for a radiant complexion.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that creates tiny holes within the skin to encourage the skin to heal. Your body responds to these tiny punctures by producing additional elastin and collagen fibers to promote healing. Over time, the elastin and collagen fibers can promote firmer, smoother-looking skin.

What Is PRP?

PRP, which is known as platelet rich plasma, is derived from the platelets naturally found in your blood. Platelets play an important role in your body’s response to healing injuries and can speed up your body’s tissue repair process. During a PRP treatment, blood is drawn as if you were undergoing a routine blood test. This sample is then placed in a centrifuge and separated into several components. PRP is then collected from this sample and used to assist your body’s natural healing mechanisms.

What Are The Benefits Of Microneedling With PRP?

Combining PRP with microneedling can further improve skin rejuvenation results following collagen induction therapy. Microneedling with PRP therapy allows for the platelet rich plasma to be better absorbed by your skin, encouraging your natural healing cycle.

Benefits Of Microneedling With PRP:

  • Restores skin elasticity
  • Increases collagen production
  • Reduces fine lines
  • Decreases blemishes, acne scars, & pore size
  • Reduces the appearance of stretch marks

Microneedling with PRP injections treats various signs of aging, including wrinkles, acne scars, pore size, and more.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about microneedling & PRP, as well as our other non-invasive treatments. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

Rejuvenate The Eyes With Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty In New Jersey

POSTED ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 08, 2021 AT 2:45 PM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

As you age, wrinkles and hollows may form under the eyes, making you look older than you actually are. As your skin begins to lose firmness and elasticity, the eyes are often the first feature to show signs of aging. Non-surgical blepharoplasty can refresh the eyes for a younger-looking appearance.

What Is Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty?

Non-surgical blepharoplasty uses cosmetic fillers and Botox® to treat undereye wrinkles, depressions, and volume loss. Because non-surgical blepharoplasty does not require surgery, patients experience no downtime and are immediately able to get back to daily activities. Non-surgical blepharoplasty can achieve long-lasting and natural-looking eye rejuvenation results that can last years before touch up appointments are needed.

Compare non-surgical blepharoplasty and traditional eyelid surgery below:

Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty: Wrinkles and hollows are improved with cosmetic fillers and Botox® with no recovery period necessary. Results are long-lasting, but routine touch up appointments will be needed in the future.

Traditional Eyelid Surgery: Loose skin is surgically removed and repositioned with a recovery period of 1-2 weeks. Results are longer-lasting than non-surgical blepharoplasty.

What Can Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty Treat?

Non-surgical blepharoplasty can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and creases around the eyes. Additionally, non-surgical blepharoplasty can also effectively treat volume loss that contributes to depressions under the eyes. This hollowness can be corrected with non-surgical blepharoplasty for a fuller, more youthful appearance.

How Long Do Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty Results Last?

In the majority of cases, non-surgical blepharoplasty results can last years before additional treatments are needed. The amount of time between non-surgical blepharoplasty treatments varies on a patient to patient basis. Dr. Asaadi can help determine when touch up appointments are needed.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about non-surgical blepharoplasty, as well as our other facial rejuvenation procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

Improve Your Facial Profile With Chin Augmentation & Rhinoplasty In NJ

POSTED ON MONDAY, JANUARY 11, 2021 AT 10:14 AM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

The nose and chin work together to create your unique facial profile. When the nose and chin are balanced, they create facial harmony that enhances your natural beauty. Facial cosmetic surgery can ensure that the chin and nose are proportionate to your facial features for beautiful-looking results. Together, rhinoplasty and chin augmentation surgery can treat imbalances in the facial profile.

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is a nasal surgery that can reshape the nose and improve asymmetries in the nostrils or nasal bridge. Nose surgery can enhance the shape and contours of the nose to better fit with your facial profile.

Some of the most common types of rhinoplasty include:

Open Rhinoplasty: Ideal for complicated surgeries. Incisions are placed inside the nose with an additional incision at the base of the nostrils.

Closed Rhinoplasty: Ideal for less complicated nose surgeries. All incisions are placed inside the nose.

Revision Rhinoplasty: Reserved for patients who have underwent a previous rhinoplasty. Incisions can be placed following a closed or open surgical technique.

Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty: Ideal for patients who do not want to undergo surgery. Uses cosmetic injectables to balance the nasal profile.

Chin Augmentation

Chin augmentation using chin implants can enhance facial harmony by improving contours of the chin and jawline. Chin implant surgery can bring forward a round chin and accentuate the smile and surrounding facial features.

Dr. Asaadi uses minimally invasive incisions when performing chin augmentation surgery to achieve the most natural-looking results possible with the shortest recovery period.

Combining Rhinoplasty & Chin Implants

The size of the lips, eyes, and cheeks all contribute to the appearance of your nose, but the facial feature that affects the appearance of the nose the most is the chin. A receding chin or a chin that is not as pronounced can cause the nose to look larger than it truly is. Combining chin augmentation with rhinoplasty can create balance between the chin and nose and improve self-confidence while providing natural-looking, long-lasting results.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about rhinoplasty & chin augmentation, as well as our other plastic surgery procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

New Year, New Body – Liposuction Options for A Slimmer, Firmer-Looking Physique

POSTED ON THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2020 AT 11:25 AM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

When’s the best time to undergo liposuction? Many patients choose the winter months to slim down and shape up problem areas such as the midsection, back, thighs, and arms. Opting for liposuction in the winter allows patients to easily cover up and take some time off to recover before heading into the new year with a new body. Our New Jersey plastic surgeon offers Vaser® LipoSelection and MAsterTuck℠ – two innovative liposuction techniques that can treat unwanted fat while also firming loose skin.

Vaser® LipoSelection

Vaser® LipoSelection is a minimally invasive liposuction procedure that can remove stubborn fat with less downtime than traditional lipo surgery. Vaser® liposuction uses ultrasound energy to liquefy excess fat cells without harming the surrounding tissues. Once the fat is liquefied, it is then suctioned out of the body. The Vaser® lipo system can target unwanted fat from multiple areas of the body, including the neck, breasts, arms, back, midsection, flanks, thighs, and legs.

In addition to fat removal, Vaser® LipoSelection can also achieve a skin tightening effect. The ultrasound energy emitted from the Vaser® device can encourage collagen and elastin production beneath the skin, which can result in a firmer, smoother-looking skin texture.

MAsterTuck℠

MAsterTuck℠ is a revolutionary liposuction procedure patented and performed solely by Dr. Asaadi. MAsterTuck℠ can transform your physique by sculpting the body for long-lasting results. MAsterTuck℠ uses the Vaser® LipoSelection system to remove stubborn fat and tighten skin.

What makes MAsterTuck℠ different from other liposuction techniques is its ability to deliver substantial skin retraction without the need for excision, resulting in a firmer, smoother contour. Dr. Asaadi uses MAsterTuck℠ to target the abdomen, flanks, and lower back.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about liposuction, Vaser® LipoSelection, and MAsterTuck℠, as well as our other body contouring procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!
