Comprehensive Body Lift To Restore Pre-Pregnancy Contours!

POSTED ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 02, 2018 AT 2:48 PM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Pregnancy can result in a variety of body changes, including weakened abdominal muscles or a loss of firmness around the upper, mid, and lower body. Many patients would like to correct sagging or hanging skin and tighten loose stomach muscles post-pregnancy. A comprehensive body lift can properly address loose skin around the abdomen, breasts, arms, back, thighs, and buttocks to achieve a slimmer-looking figure.

Tighten The Abdomen

A body lift can tighten lax skin around the midsection, while also removing any excess skin. Stretched or weakened abdominal muscles are surgically repaired to reduce bulging and achieve a slimmer waistline. Dr. Asaadi utilizes the “Table Tilt Test” to identify any additional abdominal bulging by placing the patient into a semi-sitting position. He then uses his CORE AbdominoplastySM technique to tighten the midsection. CORE AbdominoplastySM can also relieve lower back pain caused by weakness of the abdominal muscles by restoring tone to the muscles.

Shape The Breasts

The breasts can be tightened and lifted to correct sagging using a breast lift. Additionally, the areolas and nipples can be repositioned to achieve more youthful-looking breasts.

Slim The Arms

Arm lift surgery can remove hanging arm skin while also re-draping areas of loose skin to restore slender-looking arms. An arm lift can correct “bat wings,” or pockets of skin around the upper arm that hang downward.

Firm The Back

Body lift surgery can target lax skin around the upper back, shoulders, mid back, flanks, and lower back. Skin can be surgically repositioned or removed, if necessary.

Shape The Thighs

A thigh lift can reshape your inner and outer thighs to ensure lower body symmetry. Thigh lift surgery can improve thigh contours and relieve chafing caused by excess skin around the thighs.

Tighten The Buttocks

Enhance the size and shape of your buttocks with a body lift. Sagging buttocks skin can be addressed for a firmer-looking lower body.

CORE Abdominoplasty & MAsterTuck For A Firmer-Looking Midsection!

POSTED ON MONDAY, JANUARY 08, 2018 AT 5:47 PM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi has pioneered CORE Abdominoplasty℠ and MAsterTuck℠ to help patients restore a flatter, firmer-looking midsection.

CORE Abdominoplasty℠

CORE Abdominoplasty℠ is an innovative tummy tuck procedure that can tighten abdominal muscles that have been stretched due to pregnancy or weight gain. CORE Abdominoplasty℠ can also reposition and remove loose abdominal skin for a flatter, firmer-looking stomach. Unlike traditional tummy tuck surgery, CORE Abdominoplasty℠ is performed using a Table Tilt Test, during which the patient is placed in a sitting position to identify any excess bulging around the abdomen.

CORE Abdominoplasty℠ can help relieve lower back pain for patients with weakened abdominal muscles. A lack of core strength can lead to pain in the lower back. CORE Abdominoplasty℠ can repair weak stomach muscles, leading to a long-lasting reduction in lower back pain.

MAsterTuck℠

MAsterTuck℠ is a truncal liposuction technique that targets excess fat around the midsection, flanks, and lower back. Vaser® LipoSelection is utilized to gently remove unwanted fat cells from the body with precision. This Vaser® ultrasound liposuction technique also stimulates collagen production in the skin’s lower layers, resulting in skin tightening benefits.

Labiaplasty Techniques To Improve Vaginal Aesthetics!

POSTED ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 04, 2017 AT 2:52 PM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Asaadi Plastic Surgery offers labiaplasty to improve vaginal aesthetics and achieve natural-looking results. Labiaplasty is a vaginal rejuvenation technique that can sculpt the labia and enhance shape. Over time, vaginal tissues may become stretched due to a variety of factors, including aging, childbirth, or intercourse; this may result in aesthetic concerns, as well as decreased pleasure during intercourse. Different labiaplasty techniques are available to enhance vaginal aesthetics for long-lasting results,  including labiaplasty surgery and radiofrequency labiaplasty.

Labiaplasty Surgery

Labiaplasty surgery can address a variety of patient goals. During surgical labiaplasty, vaginal tissues can be lifted, repositioned, or removed to sculpt the labia. The clitoral hood can also be reduced during labiaplasty to increase sexual pleasure. Labiaplasty surgery can achieve long-lasting vaginal rejuvenation results.

Radiofrequency Labiaplasty

Radiofrequency labiaplasty is a minimally invasive form of vaginal rejuvenation that requires less healing time than traditional labiaplasty surgery. Radiofrequency energy is directed to the labia, which stimulates the production of collagen fibers below the skin. Collagen production can enhance skin elasticity and texture, resulting in natural-looking skin tightening results. Radiofrequency labiaplasty can also achieve moderate improvements to vaginal contours.

What Can I Expect Following Labiaplasty?

Mild tenderness, bruising, and swelling may occur following vaginal rejuvenation and should subside within a few weeks. Since radiofrequency labiaplasty is minimally invasive, there is less downtime and recovery than traditional labiaplasty surgery. Procedure specifics will ultimately depend on your individual treatment goals. Our staff at Asaadi Plastic Surgery can discuss which form of labiaplasty is right for you during your vaginal rejuvenation consultation.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about labiaplasty or vaginal rejuvenation. Contact our New Jersey office at 973.731.7000, our New York office at 212-938-0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

Trim Unwanted Fat Pockets With VASER® LipoSelection!

POSTED ON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 07, 2017 AT 9:32 AM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Are you bothered by diet or exercise-resistant fat? Oftentimes, traditional weight loss methods are not enough to fully eliminate love handles, bulging, or small pockets of stubborn fat. VASER® LipoSelection can carefully target problem areas, including the neck, arms, breasts, abdomen, back, and legs, to remove unwanted fat and enhance body contours. VASER® Lipo also promotes skin tightening to help add firmness to your physique. Asaadi Plastic Surgery provides VASER® LipoSelection as a minimally invasive alternative to traditional liposuction.

VASER® Lipo Overview

During VASER® Lipo treatment, a tiny cannula is placed below the skin. The cannula delivers ultrasound energy to excess fat cells, liquefying these fat cells with precision. Unwanted fat is then removed from the body. Additionally, heat from the VASER® device encourages collagen production beneath the skin, tightening skin and improving skin elasticity.

VASER® LipoSelection Target Areas

VASER® LipoSelection can target a variety of different treatment areas, such as the face, neck, breasts, arms, midsection, flanks, back, thighs, and legs. Patients can also choose to have multiple parts of the body treated during 1 VASER® Lipo procedure.

VASER® Lipo Vs. Traditional Liposuction

VASER® LipoSelection is minimally invasive and requires less downtime and recovery than traditional liposuction. Patients generally experience minimal bruising and swelling that should dissipate within a few weeks. Additionally, VASER® Lipo promotes significant skin tightening.

VASER® LipoSelection Results

VASER® LipoSelection can achieve long-lasting improvements to facial and body contours. Patients can expect a slimmer, firmer-looking appearance, as well as a reduction in bulging or love handles.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about VASER® LipoSelection, as well as our other body contouring procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 973.731.7000, our New York office at 212-938-0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

Dr. Asaadi’s Approaches to Eyelid Surgery!

POSTED ON FRIDAY, MAY 12, 2017 AT 1:53 PM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

When performing blepharoplasty, Dr. Asaadi can treat both the upper and lower eyelids for a balanced result. Combining upper and lower eyelid surgery can achieve a more-youthful, refreshed appearance.

Blepharoplasty can treat a variety of conditions, including drooping upper lids, under-eye bags, malar mounds, and festoons.

A trained eye and rigorous attention-to-detail are required during eyelid surgery in order to achieve a natural-looking result.

Learn more about blepharoplasty below.

Upper Blepharoplasty

Upper eyelid surgery is designed to reduce sagging or drooping skin above the lids. During upper blepharoplasty, loose skin over the lid can be repositioned or removed.

Underlying muscle can also be tightened for a firmer-looking appearance.

Lower Blepharoplasty

Lower blepharoplasty can treat puffy or bulging below the eyelids. Dr. Asaadi addresses each layer of the lower eyelids differently when performing eyelid surgery.

Lax skin and muscle are selectively tightened and repositioned in order to achieve an optimal result. Small amounts of excess fat beneath the eyelids can also be removed, if necessary.

Malar Mounds & Festoons

Dr. Asaadi also treats malar mounds and festoons, which are addressed differently than traditional eyelid surgery. A “Botox® Test” can be utilized to determine the cause of your malar bags or festoons. During this test, a small amount of Botox® is injected into the muscle around the eye, known as the orbicularis oculi. If this injection leads to a temporary worsening of your symptoms, then this shows that muscle laxity is the root cause of your malar mounds or festoons. If so, Dr. Asaadi can address the underlying ligaments within the muscle to correct these conditions. If there is no change in your malar bags or festoons after undergoing a Botox® injection, then the cause is most likely underlying fat pockets. These can be removed surgically to treat your festoon or malar mound.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about eyelid surgery, as well as our other facial rejuvenation procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 973.731.7000, our New York office at 212-938-0158, or you may request an appointment online today!
