Cosmetic Procedures - One Size Does Not Fit All

Posted On : Nov-19-2010 | seen (362) times | Article Word Count : 514 |

When it comes to cosmetic procedures, different individuals benefit from different techniques and technologies. Drs. Kenneth Arndt, Jeffrey Dover, Michael Kaminer and Thomas Rohrer of SkinCare Physicians, specializing in dermatology and cosmetic surgery in the Boston area, discuss the importance of choosing a practice that offers a variety of both surgical and nonsurgical options.

When people are seeking cosmetic enhancement, they sometimes erroneously assume that most or all cosmetic surgery practices offer the same options. In truth, for each procedure or treatment available, there are numerous different techniques, approaches, products and technologies that may be utilized to achieve the desired outcome. Most practitioners have their preferred methodology, and this is what they offer to their patients. However, a practice that specializes in a variety of techniques and technologies – both surgical and nonsurgical – is better able to meet the diverse needs of an array of patients.

For example, at SkinCare Physicians in Boston, procedures such as laser hair removal and liposuction are not limited to just one technology platform. The practice offers several FDA approved laser hair removal devices and numerous liposuction technologies, as well as nonsurgical lipolysis with CoolSculpting™ by ZELTIQ™.

Each of these has its own unique characteristics, and may offer advantages over other approaches for certain patients. Because of the scope of their practice and prominence of their physicians, SkinCare has essentially all of the established as well as emerging light, laser and energy devices. By offering this breadth of both surgical and nonsurgical approaches in a setting where clinical care, clinical research, and teaching and training occur, SkinCare Physicians, is able to optimize patient outcomes and customize their care.

Innovative Treatments in Experienced Hands

It is also critical that the practice is staffed with highly trained physicians at the top of their field. Offering an enhanced selection of techniques and technologies is of little value if the practitioners are not fully qualified and thoroughly experienced with each of the services and procedures they perform. At SkinCare Physicians, the doctors are world-renowned clinicians, authors, and educators, with wide-ranging experience. These physicians are professors at some of the nation's top medical schools, and train others around the world in the innovative techniques they have developed.

With their in-depth knowledge of both surgical and nonsurgical cosmetic procedures, physicians such as these can recommend a treatment protocol based on the patient's needs, not the limitations of the practice's offerings. For example, a patient may benefit from ultrasonic liposuction of the thighs combined with Zeltiq of the abdomen to eliminate scarring and produce superb contours. In another scenario, laser skin resurfacing combined with injectable fillers to the cheeks and around the mouth may be the optimal approach to a patient's facial rejuvenation. In many cases, patients believe that their only option is surgery, and they are delighted to learn that there are very effective nonsurgical options, such as Thermage® skin tightening treatments for the patient who thought her only option was a neck lift.

The Importance of Options

Choosing a practice that offers a wide range of surgical and nonsurgical options is a step toward achieving the results that are truly the best for the patient and their lifestyle. A physician who is not restricted by limited technology or training can more objectively determine the best treatment protocol for achieving the desired results of each unique patient.
