    Friday, August 27th, 2010

    Non-Cosmetic Doctors Profiting by Doing Cosmetic Procedures?
    A recent article in USA Today described a situation not unknown to those of us who are long-time cosmetic surgery-only practitioners.
    Writers Jayne O’Donnell and Jillian Berman did a nice job of pointing out what many people in the public don’t quite know or understand:  there is a migration across [...]

    Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Questions

    Friday, August 27th, 2010

    Got a Question?  Ask it!  Why Worry?
    I like for patients to have every question answered.  Before surgery, it is very appropriate to have questions about anesthesia, recovery, pain.  Even worries of nausea and vomiting, which are now rare, should be addressed.

    Friday, August 6th, 2010

    The best ethnic rhinoplasty surgeon is the surgeon that can operate on an ethnic patient and yet deliver a nose that looks as though that patient were born with it.  Natural.  Fitting the facial features and not resembling other noses, as if it were picked from a catalog.

    Dr. 90210 Nose Job

     

    As I write this, I am in the Upper Midwest.  While I spent some of my time in a small town, Green Lake, WI, population 1,100, I didn’t have too many discussions with people about rhinoplasty or cosmetic nasal surgery.  In that part of the woods, nose jobs are not very commonly [...]
