Plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures have leaped in popularity over the years. However, as beauty trends come and go over time, so do the types and techniques of plastic surgery. Here, we will explore the latest trends that we are expecting to see from some of Toronto’s best plastic surgery clinics.
Breast augmentations are one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures amongst women on a global scale, and there are certainly specific approaches which are requested more than others. While some patients continue to adore and desire the oversized, augmented look, there has been a major shift in preferences for […]
If you’re the kind of person who dreads beach season because of the extra skin and fat around your belly then, you might be wondering if a tummy tuck or abdominoplasty surgery is right for you. A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that is used to remove excess skin and fat while tightening the muscles around the midsection. Specifically, it is meant to target areas that cannot be corrected with exercise and diet. The procedure is frequently sought out by men and women who have lost a lot of weight and have sagging skin as a result; as well […]
Liposuction, like all types of surgery, has evolved over the years. Earlier forms of the procedure were considered “dry” (since they used general, rather than local, anaesthesia) and patients had to consider the possibility of experiencing complications. At the time, liposuction often lead to uneven results (due primarily to extreme fluid shifts), long recovery times and an excessive amount of blood loss that often required transfusions.
In 1987, Jeffrey Klein, an American dermatologist, made a breakthrough that drastically improved on dry liposuction thereby increasing procedural efficacy and safety. Klein’s revolutionary “super wet” or tumescent technique cut down on recovery times, decreased […]
Most women want to change something about their appearance, and it’s usually their stomach. For men, the desire for a firmer, flatter stomach is also common, as it is frequently cited as one of the key features contributing to the attractive male form. However, this area tends to be particularly vulnerable to the effects of weight fluctuations, aging, and pregnancy. It is not unusual for loose skin, weak muscles and excess fat in the abdominal and waist area to develop more easily than in other areas, and they simply cannot be eliminated as effectively with exercise, a healthy diet, and […]
What is Tuberous Breast Deformity and Hypoplasia?
Tuberous breast deformity is a developmental condition. During the breast developmental phase, an aberration occurs that causes a constricting ring to grow around the base of the breast. This ring keeps the breast from developing properly, stopping its horizontal and/or vertical expansion. The extra pressure from this process causes the breast tissue to herniate and move toward the area of the nipple/areola. The end result of this process is misshapen breasts, large areolas and irregular nipples, known as tuberous breasts. This problem can range greatly in severity. Some patients with minor tuberous breast deformity […]
Transumbilical breast augmentation is different from other forms of breast augmentation, in that it doesn’t require an incision made either around the areola (periarolar), under the breast (inframammary) or within the armpit (transaxillary). Rather, the incision for transumbilical breast augmentation is made at the navel. Once the small incision is made, a small path is cut under the skin toward the breasts to allow for the insertion of a long flexible tube called an endoscope. The breast implants are positioned in the chest via this tube. While it is easier to place the implants over the muscle using this method, […]
Edelstein Cosmetic is able to provide patients with natural looking anti-aging treatments tailored to their unique needs. Since everyone ages differently, it only makes sense that the most effective treatment for reversing the signs of facial aging must be customized for each patient.
The first step in ensuring successful treatment involves working to determine each patient’s individual physical state and anti-aging needs. Genetics, past tissue trauma, health and lifestyle factors all contribute to how the face ages, making it impossible for the same procedures to be used in every situation. Fat under the skin and the architecture of bone and muscle […]
