"Is your plastic surgeon Board Certified?" Most patients are surprised to learn that any licensed medical doctor can call him or herself a plastic surgeon, regardless of specialty training. But what exactly does "board certified" mean, and why is it so important?

When patients come to us inquiring about breast augmentation, they often have just as many questions about the recovery time as the procedure itself: how long until I can return to work? What kind of help will I need? Will I be able to exercise?

Liposuction has proven to be one of the most popular cosmetic procedures amongst women and men, ranking just after breast augmentation, and it's really no surprise as to why. This customized procedure allows the surgeon to remove stubborn fat deposits from multiple areas, while smoothing the contours of the body.

Studies conducted in 2006, 2012, 2014, and most recently in 2017, all support the theory that botox might be an effective treatment option for patients experiencing symptoms of depression.
