Botox vs. Dysport

Posted on August 25, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Botox and Dysport are two highly popular facial anti-aging injectables that are based on botulinum toxin. The treatments may be recommended for suitable candidates who seek reduction of wrinkles and lines on the face, but are not ready for facial cosmetic surgery.

While both Botox and Dysport operate on the same treatment principle of muscle immobilization through injectable administering of botulinum neurotoxin, but these treatments are also distinct from each other in some ways. Dr. Eric Yavrouian is an experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon providing anti-aging injectables and other solutions to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

Brand Recognition

Out of the two, Botox is a much more recognized and popular brand in the US. Botox is manufactured by Allergan, Inc., which is a leading company in the US for a number of aesthetic products and devices, and has been around for a few decades. Ever since Botox was approved by the FDA in 2002, it has continued to dominate globally as the number one anti-aging facial injectable and serving as a non-surgical alternative to facelift cosmetic surgery.

Botox was originally approved for the treatment of frown lines on the forehead and between the brows. In 2013, the FDA gave an additional approval to Botox for the cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes. The safety and efficacy profile of Botox is very high, and it is the treatment of choice for millions of Americans every year.

Dysport emerged as a competitor to Botox in 2009, when it received the FDA approval for the same cosmetic purposes as Botox. Dysport is relatively new in the US, but it has been widely popular across Europe for many years. Dysport is sold by Medicis, another leading cosmetic medical products company that also produces Restylane dermal filler injectables.

Leading facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Yavrouian provides Botox and Dysport treatments to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas.

Key Differences

One of the key differences between the two anti-aging injectables is that Dysport has a relatively smaller sized molecule as compared to Botox. Therefore, the unit measurement of Dysport is different from that of Botox. The cost of Dysport may be slightly lower in some offices, but it will ultimately depend on the office how they decide to price the treatment.

While both Botox and Dysport reveal similar efficacy and similar risks in research studies, but some physicians believe there are a few important differences between the two. It is estimated that the results with both Botox and Dysport can last between three to six months, but some physicians suggest that Dysport’s longevity may be slightly lower than that of Botox.

On the upside, Dysport’s results are established relatively faster (within two to five days), whereas the results with Botox will typically show in about four to seven days. The diffusion of Dysport is wider, which means it spreads to a wider area. This may be an advantage in certain areas of the face, and a disadvantage in others.

Dysport Injection Cost

Posted on August 15, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Doctor making injection in women lips Dysport injectable treatment is an FDA approved facial anti-aging solution designed to reduce frown lines and other wrinkles from the face. For patients who are keen to avoid facial cosmetic surgery, the surgeon may recommend Dysport as a temporary, non-surgical alternative for facial rejuvenation.

During the initial consultation, the Dysport treatment provider will discuss various aspects of the procedure, including its estimated costs. Dr. Eric Yavrouian is a leading facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon providing state of the art aesthetic procedures, including Dysport. Dr. Yavrouian receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

Cost-Effective Treatment

In comparison to various other facial anti-aging procedures, both cosmetic surgery-based and non-surgical, Dysport is among the most cost-effective treatment options. Surgical treatments such as a traditional or a mini facelift can cost substantially higher than a temporary injectable solution such as Dysport. Even an upper face procedure such as brow lift, forehead lift or eyelid lift will cost significantly more than a Dysport treatment.

Non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments include cosmetic dermal fillers, chemical peels, laser skin tightening, and other innovative techniques. However, most of these techniques will cost considerably more than Dysport injectables. Many of the procedures also involve downtime, but in case of Dysport, the patient will not have to take time off from work, and there are no other post-operative costs either.

Factors Impacting the Price

The dollar figure of Dysport injectable treatment can vary to some extent between two practices. One of the key factors is the geographical location of the practice. The cost of living in major urban centers will usually be higher as compared to smaller cities or semi-urban areas. For instance, the financial sacrifice of an aesthetic procedure in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby locations may not be the same as the cost in, say, Michigan.

Another vital monetary consideration can be whether Dysport treatment is received from a highly trained and experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon or a physician. Dysport treatment is based on botulinum toxin, which is an extremely potent biological substance with severe risk of complications, if it is administered wrongly. Therefore, it is worthwhile to receive such sensitive treatments from an established expert in facial aesthetic procedures.

Average Cost

A single injection of Dysport anti-aging treatment may cost in the range of $400 to $600. The actual dollar figure will vary from one practice to another depending on various factors as discussed. Some patients may need only a minor improvement in a particular area of the face, while others may require more extensive treatment in multiple areas.

Accordingly, the number of Dysport injections required will differ in each case. Therefore, overall cost of the procedure is likely to differ between two patients even at the same practice. The patient should discuss the dollar amount aspects at the time of initial consultation in order to make an informed choice.

Financing

Most patients will have the option to get the procedure financed through a professional medical care finance company, credit card extended payments, crowd funding, or personal borrowings from family and/or friends.

What is Dysport?

Posted on August 5, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Reduction of facial signs of aging is one of the most commonly requested procedures in cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical techniques. Many of the patients may not be willing to choose facelift or another surgery for wrinkle reduction on the face. In such cases, the treatment provider may recommend an injectable anti-aging facial treatment such as Dysport.

Dysport injections can produce almost instant results to make the face appear rejuvenated and younger looking. It may appear to be a simple procedure, but Dysport injections should ideally be performed by a facial plastic surgeon for safe and desirable results. Dr. Eric Yavrouian is a leading facial and reconstructive surgeon providing Dysport and other procedures to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

FDA Approved Treatment

Dysport was widely popular in Europe as an anti-aging injectable treatment for the face. It was finally approved by the US FDA in April, 2009 for the temporary reduction of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, which are also called glabellar lines. Dysport can be a good wrinkle reduction substitute for facial cosmetic surgery in cases where the patient is seeking non-surgical anti-aging alternatives.

Just like Botox, Dysport is also based on botulinum toxin Type A, which is a powerful biological agent. This neurotoxin is injected directly into the overactive muscle that is causing the formation of a wrinkle. It instantly causes the targeted muscle to go into a state of temporary paralysis, leading to reduction or fading away of the wrinkle from the face.

Stellar Candidates

Dysport may be recommended for patients seeking treatment of frown lines that may emerge on the forehead between the brows. Patients who are bothered by mild to moderate wrinkles on forehead, crow’s feet around the eyes, or other areas of the face may make good candidates for Dysport treatment.

The candidate should be below the age of 65, and should not have an allergy to cow’s milk protein. Patients with a skin infection on the planned injection site should also wait until the infection is successfully treated. As an experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Yavrouian provides Dysport treatment to suitable candidates in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas.

Procedure

Prior to performing the Dysport injectable treatment, the surgeon will clean the planned injection site with a disinfectant or alcohol to minimize infection risk. In some cases, lidocaine may be used as a local anesthetic to numb the targeted area.

However, in a majority of cases, Dysport treatment is performed without the use of a local anesthetic. The standard Dysport treatment procedure involves one injection delivered into five sites that run between and above the eyebrows.

Results

The patient will be able to notice the difference almost immediately after the Dysport injectable treatment, but proper results can be seen usually between 24 and 48 hours as the swelling subsides. The results will last for about four to six months with a single Dysport treatment. The outcome can vary from one patient to another.

Facelift Surgery Before and After Photos

Posted on July 23, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Before and After Photos

The facelift is one of the most sought-after cosmetic surgery procedures today in the US. The procedure is designed to take several years off the face by reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines. During the initial consultation for the procedure, the surgeon will discuss all aspects and present facelift before and after photographs as well.

Dr. Eric Yavrouian is a leading facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon providing facelift and other surgeries. Dr. Yavrouian strives to ensure that the patient makes an informed decision about a major procedure such as facelift. He receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

What are Facelift Before and After Images?

Before and after images in case of facelift cosmetic surgery refer to a pair or group of pictures belonging to an earlier patient who has been through the same procedure with successful results. The pictures include images taken prior to the procedure and after the procedure at a stage when full effects of facelift have been established.

The surgeon will take these photographs with the patient’s consent and present them before new patients in a discreet way. The only goal of the surgeon here is to use these pictures to educate new patients about various aspects of facelift and explain to them the potential effectiveness of this procedure.

Facelift ‘before and after’ photos can serve as a useful visual aid for new patients. As a committed facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Yavrouian makes sure these photos are made accessible to his patients. He provides facelift and other procedures to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby locations.

Benefits

When a new candidate seeks facelift surgery, they may not necessarily have a clear idea of the procedure and how it may impact their overall facial appearance. Some patients may need only a partial facelift for maintenance, while others may need a full facelift and neck lift procedure.

In some cases, the surgeon may recommend a combination of facelift with liposuction or chin implant or another procedure. In all such situations, it can be difficult for a new patient to make the best decisions. This is where facelift before and after photos can be used to help the patient make the right choices.

Staying Realistic

Most satisfactory outcomes in any aesthetic procedure can usually be achieved when the patient forms realistic expectations and has clear goals in mind. With the help of facelift before and after photos, the surgeon can ensure that the patient knows exactly what the procedure can or cannot do for them. This will mitigate the risk of any disappointment or misunderstanding occurring at a later stage which ruin the relationship and possibly tarnish the clinic’s business in the long-term.

This is why pictures are shown to the patient before they undergo the surgery so they know what they are getting themselves into and so the doctor knows the customer has signed off on this procedure.

Photos on the Web

A plastic surgeon has the option to provide facelift before and after photographs on their practice website. Patients who are considering this surgery may simply review the pictures online in the privacy of their home or office, and then make up their mind to seek a personal consultation with the surgeon.

Liposuction on the Face

Posted on July 13, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Liposuction

The face is the most important part of the body from an aesthetic point of view. Genetic and other factors can sometimes result in excess fat deposits on the face and neck. This can make the aging signs appear more prominent and make the overall facial profile appear poorly defined.

Liposuction cosmetic surgery of the face and neck can help make significant improvement in the facial appearance and make an individual look more youthful. Dr. Eric Yavrouian is an experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon providing liposuction and other procedures to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

Outstanding Candidates

Any adult who is bothered by the unsightly appearance of genetic fat deposits or fat collections due to aging in the face and neck area may be a stunning candidate for liposuction cosmetic surgery of the face. Facial liposuction is most effective in areas below the chin and jowls. These droopy areas occur on the sides of the jaws due to the effects of aging.

Candidates should be aware that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, and it is only designed to reduce excess fat pockets in certain areas. The surgeon will evaluate the patient’s facial anatomy and their personal aesthetic goals, and check their general health condition before recommending liposuction of the face.

Patients should preferably be non-smokers or prepared to stop smoking a few weeks in advance. As an experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Yavrouian will examine all aspects during the initial consultation and then advise the appropriate treatment plan. He receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby locations.

Procedure

Liposuction of the face may be performed using local or general anesthesia and sedation, depending on the extent of surgery involved. It is usually carried out on an outpatient basis, and may take about one to two hours to complete. A combination of surgical procedures of the face may be used while performing liposuction surgery. In many cases, the surgeon will utilize a chin implant with the liposuction underneath the chin.

This will allow the tightening of sagging skin and improve the facial profile. To achieve more uniform looking outcomes, the surgeon may choose to perform a neck lift surgery that involves correction of the loose muscles of the neck to restore them to a youthful position. In some cases, a considerable amount of loose skin may be present in the face or neck.

Liposuction alone cannot provide desirable aesthetic results in such cases. The surgeon will recommend a combination of a facelift and facial liposuction in such cases.

Recovery

The initial recovery period in case of liposuction of the face may last from three to seven days in most cases. A support head wrap will have to be worn for several days continually in order to compress the treated areas. Patients can return to work or resume their regularly activities usually within a week or 10 days. Strenuous exercises should be avoided at least one month for a safer recovery.

Who is Administering Your Botox? Why those Credentials Matter

Posted on July 2, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Botox is globally recognized as the most popular injectable anti-aging treatment for the face. Women and men who are keen to achieve reduction of facial lines and wrinkles without cosmetic surgery may consider Botox as a proven and effective non-surgical solution.

The FDA gave its approval for Botox in 2002 for the aesthetic reduction of frown lines, and further approved Botox in 2013 for the treatment of crow’s feet. Leading facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Eric Yavrouian provides Botox and various other surgical and non-surgical treatments. Dr. Yavrouian receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding areas.

Power of Botulinum Toxin

Botox treatment is based on botulinum toxin, which is recognized as one of the most potent biological substances with potentially severe side effects if used incorrectly. Due to the extreme power of this neurotoxin, which can paralyze muscles instantly, Botox treatment must be administered only by a certified and trained injector.

Millions of patients who wish to avoid cosmetic surgery in the US benefit every year from Botox, but safe and predictable outcomes are assured only when the treatment is received from a recognized Botox expert. Dr. Yavrouian is an experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon providing Botox and other treatments with outstanding results for patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas.

FDA’s Note of Caution

FDA requires that Botox labels should carry a warning stating that the effects of botulinum toxin have the potential to spread to other areas away from the injection site, which may cause botulism symptoms. However, the FDA also reassures patients at the same time that a confirmed case of such serious nature has not occurred when Botox treatment is administered by a qualified injector in recommended doses.

The warning essentially highlights the vital need to ensure that the Botox treatment should only be received from a provider with established credentials and experience.

ASAPS President’s Views

Dr. Michael Edwards, the President of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), says that individuals who may receive Botox treatment from an unqualified provider run the risk of developing conditions such as drooping eyebrows or one or both sides.

The treatment can worsen the facial appearance instead of improving it, if it is wrongly administered. If Botox medication is injected too close to the mid brow, it may lead to ptosis, which is a sagging or lazy eyelid condition.

Botox Expertise

According to Dr. Edwards, doctors who are trained in administering Botox should also have an in-depth knowledge of facial anatomy and the potential action of the treatment being administered. ASAPS members have received thorough training about facial anatomy. Patients can feel more confident when they seek Botox treatment from a plastic surgeon trained in face and neck surgery.

Dr. Edwards advises that patients should check the Botox provider’s background and preferably seek treatment from a trained and credentialed plastic surgeon. Every patient should realize that they have only one face, and they ought to make rational and knowledgeable choices for their own safety.

Facelift Surgery Estimated Costs

Facelift Surgery Estimated Costs

Facelift cosmetic surgery is one of the most effective to reduce the facial signs of aging and restore a rejuvenated facial appearance. During the initial consultation, the surgeon will discuss various aspects of the procedure, including its estimated costs. The goal is to help the patient make an informed decision.

Board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Eric Yavrouian is a leading provider of facelift and other procedures related to the face and neck. Dr. Yavrouian receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby locations.

Factors Affecting Your Wallet

The dollar cost of facelift cosmetic surgery across the nation can vary significantly. In many cases, the price tag will also vary from patient to patient within the same city. A number of factors will be taken into account while determining the overall monetary amount of facelift surgery. These will include the following:

Choice of Facelift Technique

A comprehensive procedure such as traditional facelift will typically cost more than a partial facelift or mini facelift. Procedures involving smaller incisions can be performed faster, and will have a lower risk of complications.

Type of Anesthesia

A facelift may be performed using general or local anesthesia. Full sedation will usually cost more than local anesthesia. The fee of the anesthesiologist will also vary in most cases.

Technology

An endoscopic facelift may carry a higher price due to the involvement of an advanced technology.

Additional Procedures

If the facelift is combined with another procedure such as rhinoplasty or chin augmentation, or involve liposuction, implants or fat transfer, the price tag may go up.

Skills of the Plastic Surgeon

A highly skilled and experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon with a strong reputation in the field of facelift surgery may charge a relatively higher fee. However, it is always advisable to choose the right surgeon, while factors such as the surgeon’s fee should only be secondary to such a choice.

Where the Practice is Located

Cost of living will depend on where a person lives. For instance, the cost of facelift surgery in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby locations may differ when the same procedure is performed in, say, Kansas City. Costs are typically higher in larger metropolitan areas compared to smaller places.

Average Financial Considerations

According to the figures released by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the average price for a facelift surgery in the US in 2013 was $6,556. However, this figure did not include the costs of general anesthesia, surgical facility fees, and other related surgical expenses. The overall price tag of the procedure can range from $8,000 to $14,000, depending on various factors and some of these have been mentioned.

Insurance and Financing

A facelift is an elective surgery, and the costs will not be covered under a health plan, unless it is performed as a part of a reconstructive procedure in some cases. Some surgeons may offer affordable financing options or accept credit card payments, if the patient has approved credit. Medical financing options can be obtained through certain companies that specialize in medical finance for elective procedures. You can conduct online research and make some phone calls to find out more about this.

Facelift Surgery Overview

Posted on June 15, 2015 by Eric Yavrouian

Facelift Surgery Overview

Rhytidectomy, commonly known as facelift is a cosmetic surgery procedure aimed at reducing the appearance of wrinkles and other telltale signs of aging on the face. The face is a complex part of the body from an aesthetic perspective, and an experienced surgeon will perform the facelift procedure with an exceptional attention to detail and maintaining a balance between beautiful and natural looking results.

As a highly trained and board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Eric Yavrouian is in a strong position to perform this procedure with minimal scarring and outstanding results that meet or exceed the patient’s expectations. Dr. Yavrouian receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.

Suitable Candidates

A marvelous candidate for facelift cosmetic surgery will have some amount of skin elasticity in the facial area so that the skin can be optimally tightened to reduce wrinkles. The underlying facial bone structure should be well-defined toprovide support and contribute to desirable outcomes. The candidate should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations from the surgery in order to achieve most satisfactory results.

Facelift Techniques

Dr. Yavrouian is a well-known facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon with expertise in various facelift techniques. Patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby locations have an opportunity to receive the following types of facelift procedures:

Traditional Full Facelift

Most comprehensive results can be obtained with a full facelift. Saggy skin around the cheeks, deep creases underneath the eyes, excess fat and loose skin under the chin and jowls, and lines around the mouth can be reduced with this procedure. The incision in this case is longer, but the technique can help achieve dramatic improvements to the face.

Mid Facelift

In a mid-facelift surgery, the tissue around the cheeks and beneath the eyes are lifted and tightened. Incisions are similar to those of a traditional lift, but may be deeper. The technique is designed to lift sagging muscles to enhance the facial look. Facial implants or a grafting technique may be used to improve the contours further.

Mini Facelift

A mini facelift, also known as a weekend facelift, involves minor incisions leading to a shorter downtime. The jaw, lower cheeks, and the neck can be treated with this technique. The surgeon may adopt an endoscopic technique to perform this procedure.

Lower Facelift

A lower facelift will focus on improving the bottom third of the face. It can be used to minimize nasolabial folds, eliminate jowls, lift the sagging corners of the mouth, and enhance the appearance of the jaw. The incisions are created along the ears and hairline to perform a lower facelift.

Thread Facelift

Some patients may only need a minimally invasive treatment to produce subtle or minor improvements to the face. This procedure can be performed without anesthesia and almost no visible scarring will take place. This is more suited for younger patients who are looking to delay the onset or signs of aging and/or need minor adjustments.

Recovery

Bruising and swelling may persist for a few weeks, but most patients may be able to return to their workplace or resume regular activities in about a week to 10 days after the surgery.
