CoolSculpting

Based on an interview with Dr. Mark Prysi and ABC7.CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is a new breakthrough technology to remove stubborn fat deposits in the body non invasively. It was developed by Harvard scientists who found that by freezing fat, you could selectively destroy the fat cells, but leave all the other tissues undisturbed.

This way you can find different areas of the body which are stubborn for this kind of fat to be removed, such as the abdomen, hips, and outer thighs, apply the suction device to freeze the fat, and you can do it all non invasively with no down time and no anesthesia.

Why CoolSculpting is so Popular

The main reason is that a lot of patients do not want to go through anesthesia or the surgery, or the expense of that. This way you can do it in the office with no downtime, there is no risk of anesthesia, and there is no invasiveness to it. You can actually go right back to work after an hour’s session, or workout the same day.

What areas of the Body is CoolSculpting used most?

The first two areas of the body CoolSculpting was used on were the abdomen and the love handle area. They just developed a new attachment where they can do the inner and outer thighs, and actually all the arms. A lot of women and men have excess fat in the arms, and just one treatment there will get rid of 25% of the fat in that area.

Dr. Mark Prysi: Breast Augmentation

Welcome to Prysi Cosmetic Surgery. I am Dr. Mark Prysi, a board-certified Naples plastic surgeon.

My staff and I are here for you to make sure your plastic surgery experience and results are the best possible.

Today we’re talking about breast augmentation.

I use a superior technique called endoscopic breast augmentation. This uses the endoscope, along with the keller funnel to limit your incision size to as small as possible. It also allows for more definition in the cleavage area.

In breast augmentation, there are three choices for incisions. You get do it around the areola, under the breast, or on the armpit if you desire no scar on the breast. The armpit incision is superior in patients who have an A cup, or very little breast tissue, or are young without any marks or scars. Once you shave over the armpit incision in 6 or 7 months, neither the patients themselves, or I can find it.

The implants are then placed almost exclusively under the muscle. There are three advantages for that: the hiding of the Dr. Mark Prysi, Breast Implantsimplant with the muscle makes it less palpable, massaging action on the muscle makes it so that it stays softer, and having the implant separated from the breast tissue with the muscle makes it so later on a mammography will be much more accurate.

With breast augmentation, I also utilize sizers during surgery. I use multiple sizers to find the exact perfect implant for you. The choices of implant are silicone or saline. Silicone implants are much more natural feeling, and the majority of my patients choose those.

What I’m mainly looking for in a typical patient is to have excellent cleavage, and for the outer part of the breast to be just covering the outer part of the chest. The breasts should feel natural in and out of clothes, and to touch.

Making people look and feel beautiful is much more than a profession; it is my passion.

 

Dr. Mark Prysi: Choosing Your Plastic Surgeon

If you are considering Plastic Surgery, one of the most important decisions is choosing your plastic surgeon. To help inform yourDr. Mark Prysi, Choosing Your Plastic Surgeon decision, here are six questions you should keep in mind.

Remember, a well qualified, experienced surgeon with an artistic eye is most likely to produce the results you deserve.

Certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery

Is your surgeon a member of the American Board of Plastic Surgery? There is only one board certifying plastic surgeons that is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialities, that certify almost all other surgery boards.  Newsweek Magazine did a study in 1999 and came to the conclusion that the gold standard of plastic surgery is certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Active Member of a Local Hospital

Is your surgeon an active member of a local hospital and a member of the Division of Plastic Surgery? You call your county and you have two hospitals and both have only one plastic surgery division and all members are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

These first two considerations do not mean you are going to get an excellent result, these considerations should really serve as baselines for your decision. If these two criteria are not met, you should absolutely keep looking for your plastic surgeon.

Examples of the Surgeon’s Work

If you should remember anything, you should remember this. So, most importantly, have you seen many examples of the surgeon’s work? You should see eight to twelve before and after photos, and meet two to three patients in person. This will trult be your best guiding factor to what your results could and would be.

Surgeon’s Skill with the Latest Techniques, and Technology

Is the Surgeon skilled in the latest advanced cosmetic procedures? There are many fresh advancements in the field of Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery. Some allow a surgeon to be more precise, some ensure a greater deal of comfort for the patient. If your surgeon is not up to date with the latest advancement’s in his field, you may be settling for a less, and are unlikely to receive an optimal surgery experience.

Artistic Ability

Does the Surgeon have artistic ability? No matter how technically good a surgeon is, if they are lacking artistic ability, you are not going to be able to get the best results. After all, wouldn’t you feel better off in the hands of someone who can see clearly his and your intentions, and bring your aesthetic desires to light?

Hospital Accredited Surgery Center

Does your surgeon use a hospital accredited surgery center with MD anesthesia? Some places of surgery are accredited just like a hospital operating room, with their own private space, or in a freestanding surgery center on the campus of a nearby hospital. Make sure your plastic surgeon is accredited by the county’s board of plastic surgery, and you’ll be ensuring that you get the optimal care you deserve.

Dr. Mark Prysi Presentation Transcript:

Dr. Mark Prysi, Skin CareWelcome to Prysi Cosmetic Surgery. I am Dr. Mark Prysi a Naples board certified plastic surgeon. My staff are here for you to make sure you find your plastic surgery and results the best possible.

Today’s topic is advanced skin care. Specifically Medically proven products and therapies that actual change the structures of your skin.

What Works:

Sunscreen: Well number one is Sunscreen. You have to prevent further sun damage and daily sunscreen is a must.

Clairsonic: Second is a Clairsonic, ultrasonic cleanser. This not only cleanses the skin six to seven times better, but also exfoliates the skin and stimulates collagen building. There are only two products that have been proven to cause collagen building. That is Retin A which has been around for along time, but the problem is it is irritating. The majority of my patients in Florida did not do well with this. Fortunately a couple of years ago, TNS came out by skin medica that’s a growth protein that makes almost the same amount of collagen as Retin A but with no side effects.

Vitamin C Serum: Finally, Vitamin C serum, which can reverse sun damage. dermatologists have shown that once sun damage has occurred, thirty percent can be reversed with daily vitamin C therapy.

Hydroquinone: Hydroquinone is what causes skin evening. This product has been used for many years, and can help even out the melanocytes. It doesn’t destroy the melanocytes, and sunscreen is still necessary to prevent it from recurring.

Skin Medica Peels: The Skin Medica peels also cause exfoliation and stimulate new cells to produce collagen.

Everything else you are putting on your skin makes it look or feel better, but it is not changing the structure. These seven things are the only things needed to make your skin more youthful, and structurally better.

Thank you.
