By removing fat with suction through small incisions, your doctor is able to sculpt and shape the curves of your body. Common sites for administering liposuction include the chin, neck, arms, abdomen, thighs, buttocks and even calves and ankles. Types of liposuction include traditional, power-asisted, laser, ultrasound, water-jet and radio frequency. 02 01 03 Traditional Power-Assisted Laser Best for: Entire body (arms, inner Best for: Entire body Best for: Body and face thigh, neck and lower abdomen) This option makes use of special The added bonus for this procedure This option can be used to sculpt equipment to give the cannula the is that the heat emitted by the a more ideal shape, making it more power necessary to dislodge fat. laser can create new collagen to proportional.

We have prepared this educati onal informati on to answer the most common questi ons presented to us by our pati ents.

What is skin cancer? Cancer is the abnormal growth of cells at an uncontrolled and unpredictable rate. The cancer tissue usually grows at the expense of surrounding normal tissue. The abnormal growth (cancer) originates in the uppermost layer of the skin and may grow downward, forming root and fi nger-like projections under the surface of the skin. Unfortunately, these roots may be subtle and unable to be seen without the aid of a microscope. Therefore, what you see on your skin is sometimes only a small portion of the total cancer. The most common types of skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

You are waiting to undergo an advanced skin cancer removal procedure called Mohs Micrographic Surgery. The origin of this technique dates back to the 1930’s when Dr. Frederick Mohs at The University of Wisconsin was researching a way to remove complicated skin cancers unresponsive to traditional therapies such as standard excisional surgery, cryosurgery (freezing), electrodessication and curettage (scraping and burning), and radiation therapy. In the 21st Century, Mohs Micrographic Surgery represents the state-of-the-art treatment for skin cancer by providing the highest cure rate, minimal sacrifice of normal skin, and smallest possible scar. The American College of Mohs Micrographic Surgery and Cutaneous Oncology (www.mohscollege.org) is the official organization responsible for training Mohs surgeons and maintaining the standard-of-care in the specialty of Mohs Surgery. To become a member of this organization and be known as a Mohs surgeon, a special one to two-year fellowship following a dermatology residency is required. Only a limited number of dermatologists are trained each year to be Mohs surgeons to maintain the highest level of competence in the specialty.

  • In Dermatologic Plastic Surgery--- Name Is Game
    In Dermatologic Plastic Surgery--- Name is Game Nothing endures but change. -Heracleitus In the last half century dermatology has seen a revolutionary change in the way cosmetic and oncologic surgery is perceived and performed. The increased focus on dermatologic surgery may be surprising to many physicians who trained in the mid twentieth century. However, many founding members of our specialty were originally surgeons who later became interested in skin disease. The first national dermatologic society, the American Dermatologic Association, was established in 1876. Many of its early members were former civil war military surgeons. Because of the high incidence of venereal or urologic disease, the focus of dermatologists of this era was on both dermatology and venerealology. In 1932 the American Board of Dermatology was established, the fourth specialty board of the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS). Since that time, more effective medical and surgical advances have been developed which have changed our patients’ lives and the way we practice medicine. Since the mid twentieth century, we have seen a resurgence in the importance of surgery in the practice of dermatology. Growing public interest in aesthetic surgery has led to developments in this field. Many of the pioneers in new or refined techniques have been dermatologists, who have used their knowledge in dermatology to “think outside of the box.” Dermatology residency or surgical fellowship has provided them a foundation upon which to build surgical experience and expertise. For example, this foundation has led to the concepts of laser utility in the treatment of skin disease, donor dominance in hair transplantation, tumescent liposuction with dilute anesthetic solution and micro-cannulas, Mohs micrographic surgery for cutaneous tumors, and laser and radiofrequency endovascular surgery.
