LIP AUGMENTATION |

 |
This 49-year-old woman “hated” the lines
around her mouth and the thinness of her lips. Dr. Kass performed a
Hetter resurfacing chemical peel around the mouth and augmentation of
the upper and lower lips with implants. The result? She felt the
procedure took 15 years off of her appearance. She was delighted and was
amazed at how natural her lips looked and felt. Even when kissing her
husband, neither could even feel the implants, that’s how natural they
felt.

This 37-year-old woman wanted fuller lips. She had seen other doctors
and had had breast augmentation, Obagi Blue Peel, Restylane, and
Sculptra. Although her lips were already full, she was striving for
sensuous, voluptuous. For her, Dr. Kass injected Juvederm to the upper
and lower lips. VOILA. Sensuous and voluptuous were achieved!

This 46-year-old woman was unhappy with the eyelid surgery, browlift,
and chin implant performed by another physician. For her, Dr. Kass
performed upper and lower eyelid lifts, and a Weekend Lift procedure.
She was thrilled with her results and returns yearly for lip
augmentation with Restylane.

This 30-year-old woman requested lip augmentation. Dr. Kass placed the
Perma Facial Implant in each lip as a minor office procedure. The
improvement was almost immediate, and the results were perfect. Within a
week, she had achieved a fuller, sensual, natural appearing lip
augmentation. The patient was thrilled. She says that her boyfriend is
very happy with them and is unable to feel them even when he kisses her.
Best of all? The improvement is permanent!

NECK LIFT |
 |
This 63 year old woman was referred to me by her husband. She had
previously had surgery on her upper eyelids by another surgeon and was
requesting only surgery on her lower eyelids, although she did allow
that she tried to hide her old appearing neck by wearing turtle neck
sweaters (even in Florida)!. After our frank discussion and reviewing
our photographs, she elected to proceed with a face lift, a neck lift
with liposuction, a suture platysmaplasty to re-define and to sculpt her
jaw line, mid face (cheek) lift, upper and lower eyelids, a Hetter
resurfacing peel around her mouth to get rid of her annoying smokers’
lines, and a fat transfer to her lips. Needless to say, she was ecstatic
with her results!

This 56 year old woman was unhappy with her appearance.
She stressed that she did not want to look like anyone else. She just
wanted to look like a younger version of herself. She was very concerned
about her jaw line and her neck. In the last year alone, she had two
chemical peels by another doctor and had not noticed any improvement.
For her, we did a Weekend Lift, endoscopic eyebrow and forehead lift,
Neck Lift with liposuction, suture platysmaplasty to perfect her jaw
line, upper and lower eyelid surgery, and a Hetter chemical peel with
facial resurfacing. This patient was so happy with her younger, and
refreshed appearance. In particular, she could not believe the way her
neck looked and felt. She said that her neck had not looked like this
since she was 20!

This 53 year old woman hated the sad face which greeted
her in the mirror each morning. She was most unhappy with her jowls, the
loss of her jaw line, the appearance of the unsightly bands in her neck,
the down turning of the corner of her mouth, and the appearance of her
skin. She also wasn’t happy about her eyelids but, like many patients,
did not want to do everything at the same time. For her, we did a
Weekend Lift, a neck lift with suture platysmaplasty, and a Blue Peel
(with TCA). This patient was thrilled with her results. It took years
off of her appearance. Don’t you agree? She is so happy she can’t wait
to go ahead with eyelid surgery and is planning for it now.

This is a 58 year old woman who works as a Registered
Nurse. She was quite nervous about having “elective” surgery because she
had an inherited bleeding disorder. She wanted “everything” done at once
but said that she was particularly concerned about the appearance of her
neck. After obtaining medical clearance, she underwent an S Lift (small
incision facial rejuvenation
procedure), endoscopic forehead lift with upper eyelids,
transconjunctival (no visible incisions, no sutures) lower eyelid
surgery, a neck lift with liposuction, suture platysmaplasty, and a
Hetter chemical peel to her lower eyelids to treat her fine wrinkles
there, and to the area around her mouth to get those smokers’ lines.
There was no unusual bleeding before, during or after her procedure. She
was delighted with all of her results, and was particularly grateful
with the rejuvenation of her neck.

This 45-year-old woman presented because of sagging
eyelids and her sagging neck. She had a very “high powered” job and it
was almost impossible for her to take off from work. She had upper and
lower eyelid lifts and a Weekend Lift procedure. Dr. Kass saw her only
one time after surgery and both he and she thought her results were
fabulous. At just one week, she had a markedly improved jaw line and
neck, and her eyes appeared much more youthful and free of lines and
wrinkles. At the one week visit, the patient said that she was
absolutely thrilled with her results and that no further follow-up
appointments were necessary!

This 40-year-old woman from a cold area of the country
was visiting Florida for just 3 weeks. She said that she found Dr. Kass
from the web and that she “loved” the photos on his site. She was
interested in surgery to improve her neck and her chin because these
problem areas (which ran in her family) did not improve at all even with
weight loss. She works hard and wanted to do something for herself while
she was visiting the Sunshine State. For her, Dr. Kass performed a Neck
Lift with liposuction and suture platysmaplasty. The patient was
thrilled with the results. She said that she couldn’t wait until she
returns next year when she will definitely have something else done
(she’s still deciding what that will be). We will keep you informed!

INJECTABLE FILLERS |
 |
This 39-year-old woman who never recovered fully from an episode of
Bells’ Palsy requested minimally invasive procedures to improve facial
symmetry. She comes in regularly to receive Botox, and sometimes facial
fillers such as Restylane, Juvederm, and Radiesse to her lips and to the
grooves between the nose and the corner of the lips (nasolabial folds).
In these photos, pay particular attention to the improvement to the
nasolabial folds as a result of Radiesse implants by Dr. Kass. Each and
every time she comes in, she tells everyone in the waiting room that Dr.
Kass is a “miracle worker.” She confides that although her income is
“modest,” she would rather spend her money on improving her appearance
than on trading in her car for a newer one.

This 40-year-old woman comes regularly for Botox to
relieve the furrows between her eyebrows. She confided that she was very
unhappy with the pouches she had below her eyes but did not want
surgery. After discussing her options with her, Dr. Kass used Juvederm
to fill in the under eye hollows. The result? The patient looks like she
had expensive eyelid surgery without the down time and or the expense of
surgery. She is thrilled that Dr. Kass suggested this for her.
|
 |
This 37-year-old woman was extremely self-conscious about
the scar she received from a car accident. While Dr. Kass explained that
nothing could take away or “erase” the scar (as some competitors’ ads
might suggest), he did believe that a filler such as restylane might
make the scar much less noticeable by filling in the areas of
depression. Both of them were thrilled with the results of this
non-surgical procedure.

BOTOX |
 |
Although it seems like just about EVERYONE is offering Botox injections
nowadays, Dr. Kass began using this drug before it was even on the
market at all! He trained with doctors who used this for investigational
purposes for neurologic movement disorders (tics). He used it for this
purpose in his practice long before the first description ever appeared
regarding cosmetic applications.
|
 |
Botox is approved for cosmetic use to
treat the furrows between the eyebrows. But Dr. Kass has also found
Botox highly effective at treating horizontal forehead lines as well as
lines caused by Crow’s feet (pictured here). The results are extremely
gratifying both to Dr. Kass and to the patient. This may explain why
Botox is easily the number one cosmetic procedure performed in the US
today!
