Cosmetic surgery can be daunting for those who have never received even a minimally-invasive procedure like Botox®. The degree to which an individual is concerned with his or her physical appearance is very personal and unique, but as we age, most of us will take measures to turn back the clock in some way. Dr. Barr has been featured on local news stations and other forms of media for his skill with what are called “mini” procedures.
Mini cosmetic surgery procedures (or “minis”) are more limited in scope than traditional procedures. Incisions are more limited, and only require local anesthesia. These procedures are performed in the office without the use of pills, IVs or a hospital. Aside from not having to undergo a full surgical procedure, a mini surgery offers a slew of other attractive benefits, including limited bruising, swelling, recovery and downtime. Patients are able to shower, drive and resume most normal activities the day following the procedure. Given the pros of a mini surgery, many healthy men and women of all ages have taken advantage of the ability to improve their appearance and be back to their regular routine the very next day. Here is a quick summary of each type of mini surgery offered at Palm Beach Plastic Surgery:
Mini-Facelift: Also referred to as the “Bandaid Mini-Facelift,” this procedure improves the sagging jowls and jaw line with removal of excess skin and fat, along with tightening of the muscle covering.
Mini-Necklift: After a small incision is made under the chin, Dr. Barr utilizes mini-liposuction and some skin removal to achieve a more youthful neck contour.
Mini-Cheek: Often performed in combination with the mini-facelift, this procedure removes excess skin and tightens muscle cover to accentuate and define the cheekbones.
Mini-Browlift: Improves the lateral droop of the eyebrow by repositioning the dropping brow with hidden incisions at or behind the lateral hairline.
Mini-Eye: Sculpts and reduces fatty bulges (bags) under the eye, as well as upper eyelid skin/fat.
Mini-Lipo: Gets rid of diet and exercise-resistant fat in the neck, breast, arms, flanks, tummy, hips, thighs, knees or calves.
Mini-Tummy-Tuck: Removes excess skin and tightens lower abdominal muscles below the belly button for those with a lower tummy “pouch” or adverse scar from a prior c-section.
For patients who desire additional anesthesia, Palm Beach Plastic Surgery’s adjoining outpatient surgery unit is also available. For more information about mini procedures, schedule a consultation today by calling 561-833-4122.
