Lip Enhancement, Lip Augmentation & Lip Plumping

We all have a good idea of what make for attractive lips, and they rely on fullness, softness and smoothness. Researchers have determined that there’s a scientific precedent for this, a 2006 issue of Dermatologic Therapy writing that one of the characteristics of a young, beautiful face is centred on a “soft, full appearance” (Soft tissue augmentation 2006: filler fantasy). Unfortunately, age takes away from the face’s natural beauty, robbing the lips of their youthful vitality and leaving them thinner and wrinkled. Edelstein Cosmetic can help you improve the appearance of your lips by providing you with a full range of […]

Laser-Assisted (Smartlipo) Vs Ultrasonic Liposuction

WHAT IS SMARTLIPO LASER LIPOSUCTION?SmartLipo is the brand name of a laser-assisted liposuction device, sometimes referred to as Smart Liposuction. Available since 2006, the SmartLipo device emits high energy waves to unwanted fat, liquefying it to allow for easier removal with a cannula. All laser assisted liposuction, regardless of the brand name, is fairly new to the cosmetic surgery field. What is Ultrasonic Liposuction?

Lipoabadominoplasty

The ever expanding field of cosmetic surgery now offers a procedure that uses the techniques of the classic tummy tuck and liposuction of the abdomen referred to as lipoabdominoplasty. This combination can now be effectively performed without the unfortunate complications that tended to go hand and hand with the original tummy tuck operation, such as tissue loss and bleeding. Dr. Edelstein discusses the benefits liposuction can have when performed simultaneously with a tummy tuck. There is no additional fee for liposuction accompanying abdominoplasty in the abdominal area. This is because we believe that lipoabdominoplasty is a superior technique to traditional abdominoplasty for […]

Liposuction

The benefits of liposuction, also known as lipoplasty and liposculpture, are numerous. Although exercise and a healthy diet are crucial in minimizing fat development, they are not useful for spot reduction and may also have no positive effect on some areas of your face and body. Liposuction has the unique ability to remove the unwanted subcutaneous fat you specify carefully without adversely affecting other areas.
