Breast augmentation surgery helps women who were born with small or asymmetrical breasts to become more confident in their feminine appearance.  They can also help woman who have had to undergo mastectomy finally feel as if they are back to their old selves again.  Breast implants, however, certainly don’t come without their costs.

It’s important to understand what your breast implants will cost ahead of time as well as what to expect.  While you are pricing out your implants, remember to also take into account the price of any aftercare, scar camouflage, or areola replacement you may need after the surgery.  Fortunately, with a New York permanent cosmetic artist, these services are extremely affordable.

Breast implants themselves, on the other hand, will run you much more, and depending on your surgeon, which type of implants you opt for, and a variety of other factors can run you an average of anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000.  This cost is usually not covered by insurance unless your breast implant surgery is to be performed for reconstructive reasons.  If your surgery is indeed being performed for reconstructive reasons, be sure to check with your insurance company to see how much you’ll be covered.  Thanks to the  Federal Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 your scar camouflage and nipple replacement may be covered as well.

If you’re considering breast surgery in the New York or New Jersey area, surely you have many looming questions on your mind.  Even if you have already chosen a surgeon, you’re probably still a little nervous about whether he or she is the right surgeon for you since there are indeed so many world renowned breast and plastic surgeons in the region.  If this is the case, you might find one of our past posts, on choosing a surgeon in the New York area helpful.

Today, we’d like to address yet another question that many women about to undergo breast surgery (particularly breast enlargement or breast augmentation) surgery often have.  That’s right, you’ve probably found yourself asking yourself (as well as others) many times “Which cup size will be right for me?”  You will likely receive great guidance in this area from a qualified surgeon who you feel comfortable with.  When choosing your cup size, remember to take your lifestyle, health, frame size (larger, petite) etc. into account as well as your wants and needs.  A surgeon who has your best interest in mind will take all of these factors and more into account as well.

Remember, a surgeon you can trust will also help you to become familiar with what to expect post-surgery with scarring etc, as well as all of your post-surgical options, including specialized recovery care and areola replacement, and scar camouflage.

Vein ligation surgery is minor surgery that removes damaged veins, eliminated unsightly and often unhealthy varicose veins from legs or anywhere else on the body. To perform vein ligation surgery, a surgeon creates a tiny incision just below each damaged vein and removes it after tying off its ends (ligation).

Vein ligation surgery is often performed for cosmetic reasons but it can be helpful for many other conditions as well. These conditions include achy legs that feel heavy or swell easily after prolonged standing, varicose vein bleeding, and damaged veins.  The surgery can also prevent sores or ulcers from developing due to poor blood flow.

Many surgeons will not perform the surgery on adults who are high risk due to medical conditions, people who have very poor circulation in the arteries of their legs, people with skin infections or pregnant women.  If you are healthy and do not suffer from any of these conditions, vein ligation might be right for
you.  Be sure to talk to your doctor first.

Remember to keep in mind that vein ligation surgeon can cause scarring, particularly hypopigmented scarring.  In other words, it can leave spots of lightened
discolored skin where damaged veins once used to be.  The Melany Whitney Center for Permanent Cosmetics uses pigments that match your skin tone to expertly blend those “scarred” spots in with the rest of your skin through a process called repigmentation.

The look of your breasts is by and large one of the ways people you meet will judge you.  Well-sized perky and symmetrical breasts signal youth and attractiveness to others.  Fortunately for women who are currently unsatisfied by the look of their breasts, surgical procedures can be used to correct the following:

1. The correction of sagging breasts, which      prolapsed (fell forward) consequent to postpartum milk gland diminishment,
   menopause, gross weight-loss, et cetera.
2. The correction of post-explantation ptosis, the sagging of the inelastic skin envelopes, once emptied of the breast
   implants.
3. The treatment of congenital ptosis and pseudoptosis, as observed in conditions such as tuberous breast deformity.
4. The management of acquired or relative ptosis, as seen in the post-mastectomy breast reconstruction of a bust
   that is of natural and proportionate size, look, and feel.

Depending on your individual condition(s), your surgeon will choose the surgery procedure type that is right for you after first making sure that you understand the health risks and benefits associated with mastopexy.  In general, your surgeon may advise you to either have a full breast lift or a modified breast lift.

It is important to remember that both full breast lifts and modified breast can leave patients with embarrassing scars.  Permanent cosmetics offer a safe, effective, and pain free way to deal with many of those scars.  Whether you end up needing areola restoration or scar camouflage after your procedure, the Melany Whitney Center for Permanent cosmetics can help.

If you’re in the process of scheduling a breast augmentation or breast enlargement procedure with one of the world famous surgeons in Miami, Florida, chances are you’re extremely excited about being one step closer to your new and improved breasts!  Before you go under the knife, however, it is important that you know what to expect after your procedure, especially when it comes to scarring.

Scarring is generally expected after breast augmentation surgery, even if your procedure will be done in one of the plastic surgery capitals of the world. Surgeons usually insert implants through either an incision around the areola, underneath the armpit, or underneath the breasts.  Therefore, you should expect to experience some type of scarring at the point of insertion or incision area.  While some surgeons will perform a less scar prone procedure known as TUBA in which implants are inserted up through the belly button area, this is extremely rare.

The good news is that breast augmentation surgery scars often heal very well, and when they don’t, you will have options for treating and camouflaging them.  Depending on your body’s chemistry, your incision scar might show up in the form of either a raised scar, an area of hyperpigmentation, or an area of hypopigmentation.  If you happen to be one of the many women who suffer from hypopigmentation around the areola after a breast augmentation, paramedical tattooing or areola coloring will help.  To learn more, consult with the experts at the Melany Center for Permanent Cosmetics.

No woman wants to live with unsightly scars.  Whether the scar remains as the result of a surgical incision or due to an accident or trauma, a scar can take a toll on a woman’s level of confidence.  Did you know hypopigmentation and hyperpigmentation are often responsible for making a scar visible?  Read on to find out why, and how permanent cosmetics can help to decrease the look of those two very things, making your scar appear much less noticeable.

Hypopigmentation refers to the “whitening” of the skin due to a loss or decrease in the production of melanin in the skin.  The condition often occurs on areas of the skin affected by scarring and is common around the areas of breast surgery scars, facelift scars, and after mole and skin cancer removal.  The exact opposite of hypopigmentation, hyperpigmentation refers to the “darkening” of the skin due to the production of too much melanin.  It is possible for parts of a scar to become hyperpigmented, failing to blend into the rest of the skin in a natural looking way.

Since hypopigmentation is often the reason that scars become unattractive, permanent makeup is often the long awaited answer you’ve been looking for if you have had to deal with a scar.

Unfortunately the Whitney Center cannot correct hyperpigmented scars. Camouflaging makeup is still the best solution, albeit temporary, for the concealing of red and purple scar tissue. However, using carefully chosen paramedical tattooing pigments and a skillful blending technique, the experts at The Melany Whitney Center for Permanent Cosmetics can help to camouflage hypopigmented scars.

If you’re looking to camouflage your scars permanently, one of the best things you can do is consult with Melany Whitney at the Whitney Center for Permanent cosmetics. One of the many services the Whitney Center offers is called “micropigmentation,” a technique that is great for permanently camouflaging scars and skin discolorations.

Scars and imperfections can occur after medical surgeries, cosmetic surgies as well as burns or other injuries. In certain case, pigmentation issues or skin discolorations can even occur due to sun exposure or acne. Micropigmentation, or paramedical cosmetic tattooing, has the ability to break up scar tissue and color it to better match your natural skin tone.

The Whitney Center has achieved miraculous results on clients with hypo-pigmented scars, face lift surgery scars, sun damage scars, cancer surgery scars, and others. Many of Melany’s client’s have had seen their scars become completely undetectable. The Whitney Center is even called on by physicians at the New York Presbyterian Hospital of Cornell University and the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City to compliment their cosmetic and reconstructive surgery procedures.

The disappearance of scars can greatly increase a your confidence and improve their appearance. If you have a scar that has bothering for weeks, months, or even years, you owe it to yourself to schedule a consultation regarding micropigmentation.
