MedSpa Safety

Friday, January 20th, 2012

Have you looked in the mirror recently and wondered who was looking back at you? With an 88% increase of men undergoing plastic surgery in the last 15 years, it seems that in fact, men do not age more gracefully. An increasing number of individuals, men and women alike, are looking to fight aging and to see that young, vibrant person they feel inside. Many are turning to plastic surgery procedures to achieve their goals but for those who are looking for a more affordable treatment with little to no down time, minimally invasive procedures are available and are quickly gaining popularity. With the rapid growth of products like Botox, Juvederm, and Restylane, consumers must be aware of Do-It-Yourself kits, Botox parties, and even day spas that offer these treatments. Dr. Jennifer Walden was recently on Fox 7 News discussing what we should be aware of, what to look for, and what questions to ask to ensure we are receiving FDA approved products by a licensed provider. See what she had to say.

You Don’t Look Like a Grandmother!

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

With the pressure to look young even as we age, soft tissue fillers and plastic surgery have become more common and acceptable to maintain that youthful look. According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, even with a 17% overall decrease in plastic surgery procedures performed between 2005 and 2010, during that time there was a 29% increase in patients 65 years or older electing for some form of rejuvenation. Among the most popular procedures for those 65 years or older are Botox, Juvederm, Face Lifts, Brow Lifts, Liposuction, and even Breast Augmentations. In the past, it was believed that senior citizens were at a higher risk for anesthesia complications during or after a surgical procedure, however a clinical study conducted by Cleveland Clinic says otherwise. See what Dr. Walden says on KVUE News about the study and suggests for older patients considering plastic surgery.

Fighting Father Time

Friday, January 13th, 2012

With an 88% increase in male Plastic Surgery procedures in the last 15 years, you may have noticed that it has become more acceptable and common for men to keep up with their appearances just as their wives have done for years. You may have also noticed that couples like Brad Pitt and Angenlina Jolie, Jay-Z and Beyonce, and the Beckhams continue to look refreshed and even younger as the years roll by. It seems that the new trend is for couples to have Plastic Surgery procedures together.

In the younger years, Liposuction is common for couples to undergo together to maintain their figures. As the couples age together, electing for couples Face Lifts is very common. Often times, the wife will go first and then coach her husband through the healing process based on her own experience. Dr. Walden recently appeared on Good Day Austin on Fox 7, an Austin News Station, to discuss this. See what she had to say about Good Day Austin’s anchor Joe Bickett:
