All About Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is one of the most popular skin care techniques. This video provides an overview on microdermabrasion, which is an exfoliation treatment designed to remove dead skin cells from your face to create a youthful glow.

Microdermabrasion treatments can be done in as little as 20 to 30 minutes and require no downtime or anesthesia. For this reason, many individuals consider microdermabrasion to be the new lunch-time peel. Find out if you’re a candidate for microdermabrasion by watching the video.

Are You a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

A rhinoplasty, also known as nose reshaping surgery, is a procedure designed to improve the appearance and proportion of your nose. It can also be used to improve your breathing ability. However, not everyone is a candidate for rhinoplasty. Here is how you can determine if you are a good candidate for a rhinoplasty procedure:

Your Facial Growth Is Complete

Unlike other cosmetic procedures, a rhinoplasty may be performed on any individual over 15 years of age, as long as his or her facial growth is fully complete. This is essential, as having a rhinoplasty prior to the completion of facial growth may result in a variety of appearance changes as growth continues.

You Are in Good Overall Health

Individuals who are in good health, with realistic expectations regarding the results, are typically good candidates for a nose reshaping procedure. Be sure to discuss any current health conditions or medications with your cosmetic surgeon.

You Have Aesthetic Problems

A rhinoplasty may be the perfect solution if you are interested in improving the size of your nose, or the width of your nose, in relation to your other facial structures. Other aesthetic problems that can be addressed by rhinoplasty include a large, drooping, or upturned nasal tip; large or wide nostrils; humps or depressions in your nasal profile; and nasal asymmetry.

Your Nose Has Structural Abnormalities

Nose reshaping surgery is not just about improving the appearance of your nose. In fact, many surgeons perform rhinoplasty procedures as a way to correct nasal breathing problems or structural abnormalities caused by injury. Rhinoplasty procedures can improve the appearance of your nose while improving breathing capabilities.

The best way to determine if a rhinoplasty is right for you is to set up a complimentary consultation with Dr. Kevin McBride at (214) 989-4796. He can provide information on rhinoplasty, facelifts, neck lifts, and non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatments.
