A genioplasty is an alternative to the chin implant. By using a patients own bone, the surgeon can change the projection, height, shape and proportion of a person’s chin. It therefore offers more versatility than an implant chin augmentation, which can really only give the chin more projection and to some degree change the shape. The results of a sliding or osseous genioplasty are dramatic, making the face and its other features more proportional. A genioplasty can move the patient’s chin forward or backward, up or down and even make it wider and more square or narrower and more rounded. […]

Fibroblasts are the most common cell type found in animals and are instrumental in promoting healthy wound healing.
PROLIFERATIVE PHASEDuring this phase, the fibroblasts begin to secrete […]

A tummy tuck addresses three common concerns: loose sagging skin, stubborn pockets of fat, and weakened or separated abdominal muscles. As a result, it dramatically transforms the patient’s silhouette by tightening and toning the abdomen. However, since each patient has unique needs and goals for the procedure, it is not always necessary to tackle all three concerns, as some patients do not have excess fat or do not require muscle repair. Muscle repair is only necessary in Toronto tummy tuck patients who are affected by diastasis recti, a condition in which the right and left side of the abdominal muscles […]
