Improve that cellulite during these winter months...

Cellulite has always been very difficult to treat as no single procedure has been able to effectively reduce the appearance of cellulite. We offer the latest treatment - VelaShape™ - to improve the appearance of cellulite over the long term. This technology combines three different approaches - RF energy and light based pulses to heat the cellulite and initiate smoothing, along with suction technology to further enhance smoothing. The process is usually repeated once a week for four sessions and then once a month for four months. The results have been quite remarkable so far. We often combine the VelaShape™ treatment with mesotherapy to further improve the cellulite and reduce fat. Your leg rejuvenation can be complete with some sclerotherapy to remove those spider veins. With no down time, the result by springtime can be beautiful legs that you will be proud to display. Just call 732-548-3200 to find out more about the VelaShape™ technology.

A Mommy-Makeover could be for you...

You have given yourself lovingly and unselfishly for your family. You've had kids which often takes a significant toll on the body. You have worked a job or taken care of the house all for your family, with no expectation of thanks or gratitude. Now it is time to do something for yourself. A Mommy-Makeover helps to smooth out and tighten up all those areas that gravity, kids, and general aging has affected. In one procedure everything can be done and you will be on your way to feeling good about yourself again. There is not a specific procedure - one or a combination of things can be done. Breastfeeding and gravity can cause certain problems with the breasts and a nice lift with possibly an implant can help get them where they should be. The extra skin on the tummy from pregnancy can be removed along with muscle tightening to flatten the abdomen, and Smart Liposuction can smooth everything out further. After your Mommy-Makeover procedure, you return home the same day and after a little recovery period you can go back to taking care of your family in style. Just call 732-548-3200 to discuss the options with our surgeons and begin the process of feeling good about what you see in the mirror every day.

Find the right type of facelift for you...

There are many types of rejuvenation procedures for the face and neck. The simplest is liposuction of the neck. This procedure is best for a younger person with excess fat and good skin elasticity. A minifacelift is best for a person with only minimal sagging of the jawline and a pretty good neck. The minifacelift (or the multitude of named quick lifting procedures advertised on TV and elsewhere) does not include significant dissection in the neck so any improvement there is usually temporary. If the neck skin is loose, then you will need a full necklift or a lower face and neck lift. These usually nonpainful procedures are much better at addressing a sagging neck and give a result that lasts for years, not months. After all, if you are paying the money and going through the recovery, why not get the best result possible? Dr. Miller would be happy to discuss all of these options with you at a free consultation.

You can still rejuvenate yourself in this economy…

In these tough economic times people are trying to save their money in any way possible. While plastic surgery is not a necessary medical procedure, improving one’s appearance can go a long way to making one feel better. There are many things that can be done that are less expensive. A Botox treatment is only a few hundred dollars and can produce a great improvement in the forehead or crow’s feet. Instead of getting a full facelift, a laser mini facelift may result in a nice rejuvenation with a much lower price and less recovery. If you are considering more than one procedure, then we can usually give a decreased price for combined procedures. These are just a few of the many things that can be done to improve your appearance naturally with a lower cost. Just call 732-548-3200 for more information.

Financing doesn't have to be difficult...

Just because plastic surgery may be slightly out of reach financially, doesn't mean you can not have it done. We use two financing companies - CareCredit and SurgeryLoans.com. Both companies have an easy application process - either online or by phone - and you can get a reply within 24 hours. Then you will be ready to have that procedure you have been thinking about for so long with a manageable monthly payment to make. Our office will be happy to help you with the process or you can go to www.AssociatesinPlasticSurgery.com to link to the financing company directly.

Computer imaging can help decide what to do...

Sometimes, patients come to me for rhinoplasty and they just are not sure what to do with their nose. They just know they want it changed. That is the perfect opportunity to utilize computer imaging. After a picture is loaded into the program, I can make subtle or significant changes, such as taking a bump down or thinning the tip. This way the patients can get an idea of what surgery may do for them. This same procedure can be done for other procedures such as facelift or breast augmentation. It is important to remember that computer imaging is not a guarantee of what you will look like after surgery because the human body can heal in different ways, but you can certainly get an idea. At Associates in Plastic Surgery, we offer free computer imaging either at an imaging session or through email. Just go to www.AssociatesinPlasticSurgery.com for more details.
