Breast Augmentation Plastic Surgery - Types of Lifts, Cost, Recovery, & Results

Breast augmentation is the second most popular plastic surgery procedure in the US today after liposuction. The introduction of new, FDA approved highly cohesive silicone implants has led to even greater safety and aesthetic enhancement in this procedure. Every year more women seek this surgery for cosmetic and other reasons.

Clinically called augmentation mammoplasty, breast augmentation surgery involves surgical insertion of saline or silicone implants in the breast tissue to increase the breast size. Board certified and experienced cosmetic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides this procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

Right Candidates

Women usually seek breast augmentation for cosmetic reasons, but in some cases, it may also be a part of breast reconstruction surgery. This plastic surgery procedure may be recommended to women facing one or more of the following conditions:

• The woman is unhappy with her naturally small sized breasts or micromastia.
• The woman’s breasts are unevenly sized or asymmetrical.
• The woman seeks larger sized breasts purely for aesthetic reasons.
• The woman has suffered loss of breast volume following a pregnancy or breastfeeding.
• The woman suffers from congenital defects in one or both breasts.
• The woman has experienced loss of breast tissue due to an injury or mastectomy.

Customizable Surgery

Breast augmentation procedure can be customized to suit the unique anatomical condition and personal aesthetic needs of a woman. The most appropriate choices must be made in order to ensure optimal results with breast augmentation. As an experienced cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Motykie is in the best position to provide this procedure to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas.

Choice of Breast Implants

Patients can choose between saline and silicone implants. Among silicone implants, the patient will have the choice of form stable or highly cohesive implants. Implant sizes vary from 120cc to 960cc, and implant shape can be round or anatomical shape.

Choice of Placement Position

The placement of breast implants in the surgically created breast pocket may be made below the pectoral muscle or in front of the muscle, behind the breast tissue.

Choice of Incision Location

The incision in case of breast implant surgery may be placed underneath the breast crease, along the areola, or in the armpits. In a few cases, even a transumbilical incision may be placed to insert the implants.

Recovery

Recovery will vary according to the location of incision and the placement position of implants, but most women will be able to resume their normal activities in about 10 to 14 days. Swelling will disappear gradually over several months. Results are usually long lasting, healthy and sustainable when the procedure is performed by a trained and experienced plastic surgeon.

Types of Implants

Breast implants are available as traditional saline implants or silicone gel implants. Both qualities are approved by the FDA, and chosen widely by the patients. New form stable or gummy bear silicone implants have also been introduced following the FDA’s approval. Implant sizes can range from 120cc to 960cc.

Placement of Implants

The cosmetic surgeon may place the implants in front of the pectoral muscle, behind the breast tissue, or underneath the pectoral muscle. The size of incision, the recovery period and risks will be impacted to an extent by the choice of implant placement position.

Location of Incisions

Incisions to place the implants may be made along the breast crease, under the arms, or around the areola. In rare cases, the surgeon may also consider a transumbilical incision. Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for breast implant surgery.

The chin profile may be compromised due to the presence of excess submental fat. This can make the neck and lower face appear older and unsightly. Many people seek the reduction of double chin appearance through plastic surgery.

However, now an innovative non-surgical treatment called Kybella is available, which can help reduce double chin. Dr. Gary Motykie is a leading cosmetic surgeon providing this cutting edge non-surgical technology to his patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

FDA Approval

Kybella or ATX-101 from Kythera is a unique treatment that does not involve plastic surgery to treat double chin, which is caused due to excessive submental fat tissue. The FDA has now approved Kybella treatment. With this approval, Kybella becomes the first and only non-surgical treatment to have an FDA approval for the reduction of double chin.

Keith Leonard, President and CEO of Kythera, says that Kybella is a fantastic and salient solution that can be tailored to meet the unique aesthetic goals of a patient for an enhanced chin profile. Higher rates of patient satisfaction are typically achieved because of the non-invasive nature of Kybella treatment.

Leonard says: “For the first time, people have access to an FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment for submental fullness, a condition that can negatively impact the overall appearance of the face and can result in a person feeling older and heavier. With Kybella, physicians can offer a clinically-proven treatment that is customized to the patient and their treatment goals for an improved chin profile.”

As a leading cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Gary Motykie supports the latest, proven and FDA approved cutting edge treatments designed to enhance a person’s appearance. Dr. Motykie provides state of the art surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas.

Successful Tests

Kybella’s success is backed by an international clinical development program that covered more than 20 clinical studies and 2,600 patients worldwide. In the pivtal Phase III studies, more than 68% patients indicated a favorable response to Kybella. They report improvements in the amount of fat in the area underneath the chin. The emotional benefits achieved due to submental fat reduction were also enumerated by the patients.

Procedure

Kybella treatment is administered through injections directly into the specific fatty tissue below the chin. The treatment program will be customized according to the unique condition of the patient. One treatment session will typically last for about 20 minutes. Two to four treatments are usually required to achieve visible results. A maximum of six treatments of Kybella may be administered as the patient’s needs.

Dr. Michael C. Edwards, the President of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), says that Kybella is an excellent revolution with prolific potential for the aesthetics industry. Dr. Edwards says it is critically important to choose the right surgeon to receive an advanced injectable solution such as Kybella.

The advantage with Kybella is that the procedure avoids all the typical risks and complications that may be associated with a surgery. The downtime is minimal and the patient does not have to undergo a prolonged treatment or recovery process.

Arm lift surgery, clinically known as brachioplasty, is a plastic surgery procedure designed to tighten and lift sagging skin on the upper arms and enhance the contours. The surgeon will remove excess skin and fat from the upper arm area to pull the skin taut and build new arm contours that complement with the rest of the body appearance.

Dr. Gary Motykie is a leading board certified plastic surgeon providing arm lift and other procedures of the breast, body, and face. As a well-known cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

Types of Arm Lift

Arm lift plastic surgery can usually be performed using two different techniques called the upper arm lift and the mini or partial arm lift.

Arm Lift Gallery

Upper Arm Lift

In this case, the surgeon will remove loose skin that is sagging from the upper arm. Skin in the upper arms may typically sag due to the natural aging process or major weight loss. The procedure will begin with the surgeon placing an incision along the arm. The length and location of the incision will depend on the amount of skin that needs to be removed and the location of the skin flap.

In a standard procedure, the cosmetic surgeon will make the incision from the armpit to the elbow. The incision may be curved or Z-shaped to keep the scarring visibility minimal. Patients with substantial loss of skin elasticity in the upper arms may have to undergo an extended brachioplasty. In this case, the incision will begin from the armpit and run down along the side of the chest. The longer incision will enable the surgeon to remove a larger amount of skin.

Mini Arm Lift

If the patient only requires a minor revision of the upper arm skin, a mini arm lift may be performed. The procedure is not really different from a full upper arm lift, but the incision in this case is smaller. The incision will typically be placed in the armpit to ensure minimal scarring visibility. The surgeon will remove the loose skin and excess fat through the incision. Dr. Motykie provides arm lift surgery to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas.

A mini arm lift surgery is generally recommend for patients who have gone through a moderate weight loss, or those who are bothered by the appearance of normal skin laxity in the upper arms due to aging. The results with mini arm lift are more subtle and natural looking.

Patient Testimonials

Recovery

Patients can expect to return to their workplace or resume other activities in about a week to 10 days. Heavy lift, running, and other vigorous exercises can be resumed in about four to six weeks.

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job or nose surgery, is a highly popular plastic surgery procedure, ranking among the top five procedures performed in the US. The procedure typically involves sculpting of the nasal cartilage and bone to reshape and resize the nose in proportion to other facial features.

When performed by an experienced cosmetic surgeon, the procedure can help a patient achieve improved balance of facial features and even correction of functional defects in some cases. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie performs rhinoplasty and other procedures on patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

Types of Rhinoplasty

Depending on a patient’s individual aesthetic goals, the appropriate rhinoplasty plastic surgery technique can be adopted.

Reduction Rhinoplasty

This is among the most common types of rhinoplasty procedures, which is designed to resize the nose to a more proportionate level. The surgery can be used to reduce or remove the bumps on the nasal bridge, define an elongated nasal tip, or reshape flared nostrils. A small amount of cartilage or bone from the nose will be removed to achieve the targeted results.

Rhinoplasty Photo Gallery

Augmentation Rhinoplasty

This type of rhinoplasty will involve tissue or bone grafting to augment the nose. The cosmetic surgeon may use cartilage from the nasal septum or other areas to build up the nasal bridge or nasal tip. If sufficient cartilage is not available in the nose or other sites, synthetic materials may be used to achieve the augmentation. Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for this procedure.

Post-Traumatic Rhinoplasty

Following a nasal injury, the surgeon may perform a post-traumatic rhinoplasty surgery. The procedure can be used to correct both aesthetic and structural anomalies. Nose straightening and correcting of the nasal septum are commonly performed using this procedure. A fractured nose may also be re-set with this technique.

Dr. Motykie’s Reviews

Reconstructive Rhinoplasty

If the patient has lost all or part of the nose following skin cancer, accident or another illness, reconstructive rhinoplasty may be recommended. The surgeon will rebuild the nose using flat techniques, skin grafting, and other advanced techniques. The procedure may involve multiple surgeries over several months

Ethnic Rhinoplasty

This is a specialized form of rhinoplasty that is customized to meet the aesthetic needs of ethnic patients. The procedure may be performed on patients of Asian, African American, Hispanic, or Middle Eastern descent. The surgeon will ensure that the essential ethnicity and identity of the face remains intact while achieving the patient’s aesthetic goals.

Recovery

Most patients will be ready to return to work or resume normal activities in about 10 to 14 days following rhinoplasty. Strenuous activity should be avoided for at least a month. Results with rhinoplasty are predictable and will usually be permanent.

Rhytidectomy, commonly known as facelift, is a plastic surgery procedure aimed at reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles and other telltale signs of aging on the face. The procedure typically involves lifting and tightening of the underlying weak facial muscles to build fuller and enhanced contours and revitalize the facial structure.

The cosmetic surgeon will also remove excess fat deposits and loose skin to restore a more youthful looking facial appearance. Dr. Gary Motykie is a board certified plastic surgeon providing facelift surgery and other procedures of the breast, body, and face. Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

Types of Facelift

Facelift plastic surgery can be performed in different ways to meet the unique aesthetic needs of a patient.

Traditional Full Facelift

This is a comprehensive procedure involving a combination of lower, mid, and upper facelifts. The surgery is designed to restore more defined facial features, reducing lines, wrinkles and sagging skin, and produce a youthful and natural looking facial appearance. A full facelift procedure may be more suited in case of older patients who wish to achieve a rejuvenated facial look.

The procedure will involve a relatively longer incision, through which the cosmetic surgeon will remove excess skin, redistribute or remove excess fat tissue, and tightening underlying muscles. Dr. Motykie is an experienced plastic surgeon providing full facelift and other types of facelift to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas.

Facelift Photo Gallery

Partial or Mini Facelift

The goal of a partial or mini facelift surgery is to restore definition to the jaw line, which may have been lost due to sagging facial skin. This technique is efficient, but not extensive like a full facelift. The surgeon will place the incision around the ears. The skin as well as SMAS, which is the thin layer of tissue and muscle just below the skin, will be lifted through the incision.

More About Facelifts

Neck Lift

Neck lift may be performed alone or in conjunction with full or partial facelift. The procedure involves skin and muscle tightening in the neck area. The muscles in this case extend from the chin to the collar bones. The incisions can be placed around the ears to perform a neck lift, or separate incisions may be placed beneath the chin.

Mid Facelift

The area extending from the cheekbones to the jaw can be addressed with a mid-facelift procedure. The surgeon will place incisions similar to that of a mini facelift, and will tighten the skin and SMAS through the incisions. The horizontal pull of the skin and SMAS will achieve a lift of about two to four centimeters. In some cases, upper facelift procedures such as brow lift may also be performed with a mid-facelift.

Testimonials

Recovery

Recovery will vary according to the extent of surgery performed and the technique used. In most cases, patients will experience mild bruising, swelling, and tenderness in the first few days. Patients can go to work or resume their regular activities in about a week to 10 days. However, vigorous activities should be avoided for at least four weeks.

Tummy Tuck Surgery Alternatives

We are bombarded with images of flat abdominals through all possible channels of advertising. It is difficult to not pay attention to the sculpted and gorgeous abdominals that is not only a symbol of vanity but indicates youth and good health too.

What are the different ways of getting washboard abdominals?

Dieting, exercise and a combination of both can help achieve people their desired abdominal muscles. There are plastic surgery options like tummy tuck and body contouring that can help achieve flat abdominals too.

How do I know which option is right for me?

Dr. Gary Motykie, who is a cosmetic surgeon and works out of Beverly Hills, West Hollywood and Los Angeles, can help you determine the right option for you post a physical check up. Dr. Motykie’s clinic also offers online consultation for patients with really tight schedules.

Can I not just diet and exercise and get my dream abs?

Of course exercise and dieting are the first options that anyone must try to lose overall body fat and stomach flab. It becomes slightly problematic when people get impatient with these methods because they require time and patience. Also, stretch marks, saggy skin and fat pouches are difficult to get rid of just with exercise and diet.

How do I get rid of saggy flab?

Cosmetic surgery options allow body sculpting through abdominoplasty or tummy tuck. Abdomen comprises skin, fat and muscle cells. All these components can be distorted and stretched due to sudden weight gain and weight loss. In women pregnancy can also lead to loosening of abdominal muscles. Tummy tuck can help restore abdominal muscles to their original shape by removing excess of fat and skin. Regular weight loss methods may tighten the muscles but they cannot help skin retain its elasticity.

Doesn’t tummy tuck involve going under the knife? I am afraid, do I have alternatives?

Surgical intervention is only needed when you have tried everything else and it hasn’t worked in your favor. Yes abdominoplasty involves going under the knife but it is a safe procedure and over the years it has become highly specialized and the recovery time of the patient has reduced by half. However, if you are looking for alternatives the you can always check out laser liposuction procedure, ultrasound cavitation, lipdissolve, and thermage.

Laser Liposuction: it is a laparoscopic procedure and involves minimal incisions to suck the fat out. It is a safe procedure, the recovery time is less and it can cost less than traditional tummy tuck surgery.

Ultrasound Cavitation: this method uses ultrasound technology to shrink fat in the fat cells without harming the system. It is a noninvasive procedure.

Lipodissolve: as the name suggests, injections containing special enzymes can be injected at the site of fat deposit to melt the fat. This is useful to target based fat loss

Thermage: this treatment enhances collagen production to firm the skin and melt unwanted fat. It is recommended for people with loose skin.

Options for Facelifts

Rhytidectomy, commonly known as a facelift, is a form of plastic surgery that removes unwanted facial wrinkles and other telltale signs of aging by tightening the facial skin. It aims to improve the appearance of the face and reverse the damaging effects of time and stress. Facelifts will not only restore your youthful appearance, but will also boost your self-confidence.

Renowned cosmetic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie offers a variety of surgical and non surgical options in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood or Los Angeles that you can look into if you are interested in getting a facelift. His skill and expertise will give you the youthful appearance that you are looking for.

Types of plastic surgery procedures for a facelift

Surgical:

Endoscopic Facelift : An endoscope is a microscopic camera that is used to look inside a body cavity or organ. In order to perform this kind of surgery, the doctor creates three small incisions: one for the endoscope and the other two to insert the surgical instruments that will be used to remove the excess tissue and lift the muscle. Endoscopic facelifts work best for drooping muscles and misplaced fat. They are useful for areas below the eyes and around the cheeks as well as to enhance the jawline. As the incisions are smaller, patients who undergo endoscopic facelifts enjoy a faster recovery time.

Cutaneous Facelift: This procedure exclusively addresses sagging and excess skin. The doctor creates a long incision along the patient’s hairline, lifts up the skin and sutures it higher up in place. This does not affect muscular structure and thus reduces the risk of nerve damage. However, the result of this type of surgery doesn’t last long.

SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) Facelift: In this type of facelift, the surgeon lifts and tightens the underlying muscle structure in order to improve facial contours and produce a youthful appearance. This treatment results in a far more natural look as compared to other techniques.

S lift: Suitable for treating the jaw and lower face, in this type of surgery the doctor creates S-shaped incisions in front of the ears. This technique is cost effective and has a shorter recovery time.

Deep Plane Lift: Rather than separating the muscles and lifting them, the doctor will treat the entire facial structure as one single entity. However this procedure puts the facial nerves at risk.

Subperiosteal Facelift: This is a specialized process that goes deeper than deep plane lifts and aims for tissues just above the facial bones.

Non surgical:

Liquid Facelift: This procedure involves using injectable fillers to address wrinkles and sagging skin. Deeper lines can be filled in by dermal fillers such as Radiesse and Sculptra. The most popular liquid filler is Botox. This treatment involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into the underlying muscles in order to block the nerve impulses and muscle contractions that cause wrinkles. They have a very short recovery time and hardly any side-effects. However, this technique cannot remove loose skin or alter the underlying muscle layer.

Laser Facelift: This uses infrared light to eliminate wrinkles, acne scars, and other blemishes. The low intensity beams of light also stimulate collagen production and increase moisture. This treatment, however, is quite costly and does not get rid of excess skin.

Ultrasound therapy: While not as dramatic as a full surgical facelift, this technique involves sending sound waves to the treatment area in order to tighten the skin.

Microcurrent Facelift: One of the fastest growing techniques, microcurrent facelifts use gentle electric currents to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, re-hydrate and tighten the skin and increase blood flow.

Fat Grafting

Breast implant rippling is usually an aftereffect of breast implant. Breast implant is a kind of plastic surgery, wherein the natural breasts are implanted with silicone or saline filled sacks. The breast implant surface ripples or wrinkles. The effects can be seen and/or felt. Rippling can happen with saline and silicone implants as well. It is most likely to occur with saline implants due to the fluid nature of saline. There are less chances of rippling with silicone implant due to the fact that silicone gel is more cohesive in nature. But saline implants will definitely have ripple effects over time.

ASAPS Video

Areas affected by rippling

The areas of the breast which are affected mostly are the places where there are less or no muscle coverage. Especially along the outer edges and the cleavage area. It is mostly visible if you are bending over to pick up something from the floor.

Reasons for breast implant rippling

Rippling mainly happens due to the lack of breast tissues and under filling of the saline implants. Textured implants are also one of the reasons for rippling. The quality of a patient’s skin and tissues also play a major role in rippling.

How to reduce the appearance of breast implant rippling?

Fat grafting is an excellent option to reduce the appearance of breast implant rippling. It is a process which involves taking the extra fat from the fatty regions of your body, processing that fat and then re-injecting that fat in your breasts to make it look fuller and contoured. The rippling effect is visibly diminished after fat grafting.

The procedure of fat grafting can also be carried out along with the breast implant surgery depending upon the anatomy of the patient. It is a relatively new technique and has become more popular over the past few years. It also helps to slim down the fatty areas of the body while giving your breast beautiful and fuller shape, though this procedure is not advisable for very thin people.

A distinct advantage of fat grafting is that it avoids the need to do an open surgery. Simultaneously it does not require the patient to stay in hospital for a long period of time. According to some surgeons, it also improves your skin quality.

Fat grafting involves

Fat harvesting– Excess fat is extracted from the body via liposuction.
Fat purification– The extracted fat is processed for removal of impurities and concentrate stem cells.
Micro-grafting technique-The purified fat and stem cells are then re-injected back into the breasts.

It is a tedious surgical procedure and should only be carried out by surgeons who pay attention to minute and intricate details and are very thorough with the procedure. Dr. Gary Motykie is an expert cosmetic surgeon to carry out this surgical procedure. He is renowned for extending his medical services to residents of Los Angeles, West Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Dr. Gary Motykie has a certification from The American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a specialist to perform all kinds of breast surgery with expertise.

Otoplasty (Ear Surgery) Before and After Plastic Surgery Pictures

Otoplasty or ear reshaping surgery is commonly performed on children, but adults may also choose this procedure. Candidates with oddly shaped, oversized, or protruding ears may go for this surgery to improve the appearance of ears and bring them in balance with the rest of the facial features.

The cosmetic surgeon will explain different aspects of otoplasty at the time of the initial consultation in order to help the patient make an informed choice. The surgeon may also make use of otoplasty before and after photographs to help the patient understand the potential benefits of this surgery. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides a range of facial procedures through his surgery practice as well as medical spa. Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

What are Otoplasty Before and After Images?

Otoplasty ‘before and after images’ refer to a pair or group of pictures belonging to an earlier patient who has received the same surgery successfully. The images include pictures taken before the surgery and after the surgery at a time when full effects of otoplasty have been established. The surgeon will take these pictures with the consent of the patient, and show them to new patients in a discreet manner.

The surgeon’s only goal is to use these pictures to educate new patients about different aspects of otoplasty and help them make an informed decision. Otoplasty before and after photographs serve as an effective visual aid to explain to the patients what the procedure can or cannot do for them. Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby locations have an opportunity to receive surgical and non-surgical procedures at Dr. Motykie’s plastic surgery practice as well as medspa.

Benefits

When a new patient visits the surgeon’s office to seek otoplasty, they may not necessarily know how exactly the procedure may help fulfill their unique aesthetic needs. Some patients may only need a minor corrective surgery, while others may need an elaborate otoplasty in conjunction with another facial procedure to meet their aesthetic goals.

For a patient, it can be a difficult situation to choose the right options and make the best decision. This is where the surgeon can use otoplasty before and after photos effectively to help them visualize the results and make appropriate choices.

Being Realistic

One of the pre-requisites to success in any aesthetic surgical or non-surgical procedure is that the patient should have a positive frame of mind, clear aesthetic priorities and realistic expectations. Such patients will typically achieve the highest satisfaction from the results.

With otooplasty before and after photos, the patient will know clearly what to expect and what not to expect from the surgery. This will mitigate the chances of any misunderstanding or disappointment occurring at a later stage.

Online Photos

The surgeon may also decide to provide otoplasty before and after photos on their practice website. Anyone can access these pictures freely online and review the potential results even before they are ready to visit the surgeon’s office for a consultation.
