    Breast Augmentation Cost | Richmond

    Monthly Archives: January 2016

    Breast Augmentation Cost | Richmond

    Breast Augmentation Cost | Plastic Surgery | Richmond | ViennaBreast augmentation plastic surgery procedure is designed to increase the size of breasts through surgical placement of saline or silicone implants. The first goal of a surgeon will be to educate the patient about all aspects of the procedure, including its estimated costs. Patients should feel free to clarify all their concerns and doubts about the costs before committing to the procedure.
    Breast augmentation costs and benefits should be weighed carefully, but the primary concern should be to choose the right surgeon for such a major surgical procedure. Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin are board certified plastic surgeons providing breast augmentation to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, and surrounding communities.
     

    Price Factors

    The dollar figure of breast augmentation plastic surgery will differ from one practice to another, and may sometimes even differ from one patient to another at the same practice. The following factors will influence the actual cost:
     
    Location Factors
    The average monetary amount of living is typically higher in prime urban regions and major cities along the coasts. This will have an effect on the costs of most types of products and services, including surgical procedures. Therefore, the cost of breast augmentation will usually vary depending on the city where the practice is located.
     
    Implant Costs
    The choice of implants will have an impact on the overall cost of procedure. Traditional saline implants will generally cost lower than silicone gel implants. Some of the recently introduced highly cohesive silicone implants can cost significantly higher. The patients should take this dollar amount into account while choosing the most suitable implants.
     
    Fee Charged by the Surgeon
    The fee charged by the plastic surgeon will usually vary according to their skills, experience and recognition in the field of breast enlargement surgery. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons suggests that a patient should choose the right surgeon for their needs, and aspects such as the surgeon’s fee should only be secondary to such a choice.
     
    Anesthesia and Operating Room Costs
    Breast augmentation is usually performed using general anesthesia. It will involve the fee of an anesthesiologist or a certified anesthetist nurse, which will differ according to their skills and experience. The procedure may be performed at a hospital, an ambulatory surgical center, or a private surgical suite. The dollar cost and benefits in each case should be evaluated while making a decision.
    Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, and nearby areas for breast augmentation surgery.
     

    Insurance and Financing

    If breast augmentation is performed as a part of breast reconstruction surgery following a mastectomy, the costs may be fully or partially covered by health insurance. When the procedure is performed solely for aesthetic reasons, most insurers will not offer coverage.
    In such cases, patients can explore various financing options such as low interest loans from professional medical care financing firms, traditional bank loans, credit card payments, and family borrowings.

    • The woman seeks larger breasts for aesthetic reasons
    • Breasts have lost volume following pregnancy or weight loss
    • Breasts are asymmetrical
    • Congenital defects are present in one or both breasts
    • Breast reconstruction is needed following mastectomy

     

    Customized Surgical Planning

    An experienced plastic surgeon will customize the breast augmentation procedure to suit the specific anatomical and aesthetic needs of the patient. The final outcome will depend to an extent on the choices made with regard to the type and size of implants, the location of incisions, and the placement of implants in the breast tissue.
     
    Choice of Implants
    Patients will have a choice between traditional saline implants and advanced silicone gel implants. Silicone implants have become more popular over the years because of their more natural touch and feel and pleasing aesthetics. Implant shapes may be anatomical and round, and the sizes can range from 120 cc to 960 cc. Choices in profiles and textures are also available. The right combination must be chosen to achieve optimal results in breast augmentation.
     
    Incision Location and Implant Placement
    Breast implants can be surgically inserted through an incision located at the base of the breast along the crease, under the arm, or around the circumference of the areola. In a few cases, the incision may also be located around the navel. Implant placement may be made below the pectoral muscle or in front of the pectoral muscle behind the breast tissue. The surgeon will make these choices in close consultation with the patient.
     

    Procedure

    Breast augmentation is usually performed as an outpatient surgery with the patient under general anesthesia or IV sedation. The surgeon will place the incisions in a discreet location as per the surgical plan. A breast pocket will be created through the incision to accommodate the implant. Thereafter, the surgeon will place the implant and adjust it appropriately into position. The incisions will then be closed carefully with sutures.
     

    Recovery

    Following surgery, most patients will be able to return to their regular activities or go to work in about 10 to 14 days. Mild pain and soreness in the incision areas can be experienced in the first week, which can be addressed with pain medications.

    CoolSculpting Fat Removal in Richmond

    CoolSculpting | Fat Removal | Non-Surgical | Richmond | VirginiaAccumulation of stubborn fat tissue in certain areas of the body can occur due to genetics, sedentary lifestyles, disease, aging, and other factors. Liposuction is an effective plastic surgery solution to this problem, but many patients want non-surgical alternatives to reduce fat deposits. CoolSculpting is one of the most effective and proven treatments for fat reduction and restoring of more shapely body contours.
    CoolSculpting is commonly used to reduce or remove unwanted fat tissue in areas such as buttocks, thighs, abdomen, flanks, back, upper arms, neck, calves, and knees. Modern Body Contouring & Laser Center (MBody), led by board certified plastic surgeons Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin, provides CoolSculpting to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, and surrounding communities.
     

    Difference from Other Procedures

    CoolSculpting has revolutionized the field of aesthetic fat reduction with its highly unique and innovative cooling technology. While most non-surgical fat removal procedures involve heating of the fat cells through lasers, ultrasound, RF or other forms of energy, CoolSculpting adopts a reverse technique. It exposes the targeted fat cells to a cold temperature in order to freeze them to their death.
    CoolSculpting cooling process was developed by Harvard scientists and the device has been cleared by the FDA. This process called cryolipolysis address specific fat deposits to freeze them. The frozen fat cells eventually break down and get removed from the body through its natural metabolic process. Unlike plastic surgery, the procedure does not involve any cuts, incisions or needles.
    Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin are experienced plastic surgeons who receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, and nearby locations for CoolSculpting and various other procedures.

    • Safe and convenient in-office procedure, with a single treatment session lasting for less than an hour.

    Cost Comparison with Liposuction

    Liposuction is a widely accepted and proven plastic surgery procedure to reduce unwanted fat deposits. CoolSculpting is designed to achieve the same aesthetic goals, while avoiding the typical risks, complications and relatively higher costs that are associated with liposuction.
    CoolSculpting can be performed without any need for anesthesia, which will avoid the fee charged by an anesthesiologist. It is an in-office procedure, which means there is no expense for hospitalization or an ambulatory surgical center. Other costs such as the surgeon’s fee, medical tests, prescription drugs, surgical garments, and post-operative visits to the surgeon’s office are also avoided in case of CoolSculpting.
     

    Price Comparison with Other Procedures

    The monetary amount of CoolSculpting may turn out to be more competitive in comparison to several other non-surgical fat reduction procedures. Technologies that involve lasers, ultrasound or radio frequency may be costlier or may require more treatment sessions as compared to CoolSculpting. While the cost of each procedure can vary among practices, CoolSculpting is generally considered to be a highly cost-effective procedure in comparison to other alternatives.
     

    Factors Impacting Your Finances

    The dollar figure of CoolSculpting can vary from one practice to another depending on a few factors. The location of the practice is a key factor to influence the cost. Living costs are usually higher in prime urban centers and cities in the West and East Coast areas. This will affect the average monetary amount of most types of commodities and services, including aesthetic treatments.
    Quality standards, technology, training and experience of the staff, supervision of a plastic surgeon, and the reputation of a practice in providing body contouring procedures are some of the key attributes of a practice that can impact the cost of CoolSculpting. It is expensive to maintain topmost quality standards and offer personalized services by a highly trained and experienced team, but it is always a sagacious idea to choose the best services for an aesthetic procedure.
    An individual patient may require CoolSculpting treatment in a single or multiple areas of the body. The cost will be reduced for smaller areas such as the chin, neck, knees, or ankles, while the sticker price will be higher for the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks treatment.

    Non-invasive Skin Lift

    Ultherapy holds the unique distinction of being the first and only non-invasive procedure with an FDA clearance specifically for skin lift. It is designed to firm up the skin in areas that have suffered loss of elasticity due to aging, environmental factors, disease, gravity or genetic reasons. Common areas of treatment include the face, neck and décolletage. Ultherapy promotes structural support for the skin from within to produce more sustainable and natural looking skin tightening results.
     

    Benefits

    For patients seeking safe and effective skin tightening alternatives to plastic surgery, Ultherapy can be an ideal solution. Some of the key benefits of this procedure include:
     

    • A single treatment session can create substantive skin tightening and lifting results, unlike other non-invasive procedures that usually require multiple treatments.
    • The delivery of ultrasound energy is done in precise, targeted and controlled manner, which preserves the surrounding healthy tissue against any harm.
    • Results are longer lasting and more natural looking because the ultrasound energy penetrates into the deeper skin layers to stimulate fresh collagen production to firm up the skin.
    • Ultherapy also addresses issues related to skin texture and tone, and can help to improve the effects of sun damage.

     
    Ultherapy is ideally suited for working individuals and busy moms who usually seek procedures that do not involve much downtime. Ultherapy can be performed without any need for anesthesia. It involves no cuts, incisions, needles or pain. Scarring is not a concern and post-operative recovery is almost immediate.
    Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin are leading plastic surgeons who receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, and nearby areas for Ultherapy and other procedures.
     

    Butt Lift with Ultherapy

    Ultherapy is a widely recognized and accepted procedure to treat the facial signs of aging. In recent times, it has also emerged as one of the most effective solutions to achieve buttock lift without surgery.
    The procedure delivers targeted doses of ultrasound energy in the same innermost areas of the skin as a butt lift would. A subtle lift and tightening of the skin is achieved and the unsightly appearance of cellulite will also be reduced, resulting in lifted, tighter, and more aesthetically appealing buttocks.

    The patient can usually resume driving in about two weeks, and also walk five miles on a flat surface by this time. Running and other mild exercises can begin in about four weeks. For hard workouts, it is better to wait till at least six weeks after a mommy makeover.

In many cases, the drains and sutures will be removed after the first week. Patients are expected to stay home in the first few days, but need not remain confined to bed all the time.

    Mommy Makeover Surgery Before and After Photos

    Mommy Makeover Surgery Before and After PhotosMommy Makeover Surgery Before and After Photos

    Mommy makeover plastic surgery can be a transformative procedure for a mother who wants to re-gain her pre-pregnancy figure. During the initial consultation process, the surgeon will explain different aspects of the procedure so that the patient can make an informed decision.
    In many cases, an experienced plastic surgeon will prefer to provide mommy makeover before and after photographs to the patient at the very outset. This can enable the patient to visualize how her appearance may improve following the surgery. Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin are board certified plastic surgeons providing mommy makeover to patients in Richmond, VA and other areas.

    What are Mommy Makeover Before and After Images?

    Before and after images in case of mommy makeover plastic surgery refer to a pair or group of pictures belonging to a previous patient who has received the same procedure with good results. The photographs include images taken before the procedure and after the procedure at a time when bruising and swelling has disappeared and full results are established.
    The plastic surgeon will obtain the pictures with the patient’s consent, and will show them to new patients in a discreet way. The goal of the surgeon is to use these photographs as a visual aid and educate new patients about various aspects of a mommy makeover surgery. This will help new patients to make a well-considered decision.

    Advantages

    When a mom visits the office of a surgeon to seek a consultation for a mommy makeover, she may only have a vague notion of how appropriate the procedure may be in her case, and how it may help to meet her personal aesthetic goals. Some moms may only require a limited improvement in certain areas of the body, involving just two or three procedures.
    In other cases, multiple surgical and non-surgical procedures may be recommended to meet the patient’s needs. The procedure is highly customizable, but the patient must be able to make the right choices in consultation with the surgeon. This is where mommy makeover surgery before and after photos can play a very useful role.
    Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin receive patients from Richmond, VA and other communities, including Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, and Chevy Chase for mommy makeover surgery.

    Staying Realistic

    Patients with a positive frame of mind, clear aesthetic priorities and realistic expectations will usually achieve a higher satisfaction level in any aesthetic procedure. Therefore, an experienced surgeon will prefer to present mommy makeover before and after photos to ensure that the patient knows exactly what the procedure can or cannot do for her. This mitigates the chances of any disappointment occurring at a later stage for the patient.

    Online Photos

    The surgeon has a choice to provide mommy makeover surgery before and after photos on their practice website in a separate ‘Photo Gallery’ section. New patients can simply review the photos online in the comfort of their home or office, and then decide whether to visit the surgeon’s office for a mommy makeover consultation.
    Digital technology has changed the world and the medical community is another industry where this technology has had a major impact. Giving patients a strong idea on how this procedure will look on them before they open that door towards this procedure is just remarkable.
