Vaginal Tightening
Jun 10, 2018

No matter what the cause of repeated vaginal stretching (child birth or sexual acts), eventually there can be either a disruption of the musculature of the vaginal opening or musculature that is stretched beyond its functional capacity.

Tip Rhinoplasty
May 23, 2018

A tip Rhinoplasty refines the tip of the nose. The results are affected by the tip cartilage quality (strength) and the thickness of the nose skin.

Do implants always sit real high when first put in?

Breast implants sit high right after surgery
May 12, 2018

When placed under the muscle, breast implants have a tendency to first appear positioned high and sometimes squared at the top. This is very temporary and normalizes to a pretty shape as your skin and muscle adjust to the increased volume of your breast. On the other hand, when the implant is not placed under the muscle, the initial appearance after surgery is more natural. However, there is a slightly increased risk of capsular contracture long-term that should be taken into consideration...

Shortening the Nose
Mar 30, 2018
