What's New in Plastic Surgery

Silicone Breast Implants approved by the FDA

For those of us who have been waiting since 1992 for the FDA to release silicone breast implants to the general public- the waiting is over! As of November 2006, any woman 18 years of age or older undergoing any type of breast implant operation (first time augmentation, implant replacement, or a breast lift with implants) may use silicone breast implants. Because silicone implants are softer and thus more natural feeling, it is believed that many of the more than 400,000 women in this country who undergo breast implant surgery each year will opt to use silicone instead of saline.

For more information or if you think you might be a good candidate for silicone gel implants, please contact our office at 954-630-2009 for your complimentary consultation!

Plastic Surgery Procedures Increase 32% in 2006

More than 8.7 million cosmetic plastic surgery procedures were performed in 2006, representing a 32% increase over the 6.6 million procedures performed during 2005. The rise in procedure rates seems to reflect the public's growing realization of the positive change plastic surgery can bring to their lives under the right conditions, says ASPS President Rod Rohrich, M.D. 

Perhaps most notable were increase in minimally invasive procedures (up 41%) and body contouring following gastric bypass (bariatric) surgery (up 36%). More than 52,000 post-bariatric procedures were performed, including tummy tucks, breast lifts, lower body lifts, arm lifts and thigh lifts.

The most popular surgical procedures for 2004 included: rhinoplasty (356,554), liposuction (320,022), breast augmentation (254,140), eyelid surgery (246,633) and facelift surgery (246,633). The most popular non-surgical procedures included: Botox injections (2.9 million), chemical peels (995,238), microdermabrtasion treatments (935,984), laser hair reduction (623,297) and collagen injections (576,255).
