A masculine appearing nose.
Nasal characteristics in men are different from those qualities which are desired by women. For this reason, aesthetic goals in men must be individualized. In general, men wish to maintain a masculine appearing nose. View the images bellow and notice how their Rhinoplasty resulted in facial harmony…

The plunging hook tip and hump are corrected.

The heavy, over projecting nose is reduced appropriately. Facial balance is restored.

California Cosmetic Surgeon balances facial features
The nose knows the smell of fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and luring perfumes. We all know it is a grand factor in balancing facial features and it is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty is performed to reshape, reduce or augment a person’s nose. We also perform the surgery to remove a hump, narrow nostril width, change the angle between the nose and the mouth, or to correct injury.

Body Contouring Technology…

Liposuction by OC Plastic Surgeon Burr von Maur, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Body Contouring technologies range from Liposuction (surgery); to laser liposuction (laser that melts fat); to Non-Invasive Techniques. These Non-Invasive technologies range from Photomology ™ (laser energy and massage) to Endermologie ™ (patent rollers that massage); to electro-optical synergy - (a device that tightens skin while contouring the body). In the future you will see intense marketing of the next round of Non-Invasive Body Contouring devices using Ultrasound. Today, there has been increasing media attention focusing on Cryolipolysis™ by Zeltiq. It is a Non-Invasive device that is used off label (which means it is awaiting FDA approval) and differs from the other non-invasive devices because it uses a cold technique to reduce fat volume. It works by pressing the device against the area to be treated and then becoming cold enough to target only the fat cells in that area. The body reacts with an inflammatory response which causes the body to naturally dispose of the damaged fat cells. The jury is still out regarding the efficacy of most of these non-invasive body contouring procedures.

Body Sculpting by Burr von Maur, M.D., F.A.C.S
Surgery or Non-Invasive
Body Contouring?
Regardless of the type of Non-Invasive technology you may choose, they all share the following common conditions:
-
More than one treatment is required (and often a series is required) before results are seen
-
There are no guarantees that it will work on you
-
There are side effects to each procedure
-
The results thus far are not impressive and do not come close to the results that can be obtained with Plastic Surgical Body Contouring procedures.
We sculpt the troublesome areas and the surrounding areas to create a harmonious balanced result that permanently improves the silhouette. The average body contouring surgery is 1.0 to 3.0 hours long. General or Local Anesthesia are used. Usually within a few weeks you can wear your BIKINI! Body Contouring Surgery is permanent and predictable. The overall cost compares favorably to a series of non invasive and unpredictable procedures which are frequently disappointing to the patients.

Orange County Plastic Surgeon, Burr von Maur, M.D., is a liposuction specialist.
Now that swimsuit season is here and a Flat Stomach and Sexy Silhouette are in order, you have many options to help you get Bikini-Ready. The first is diet and exercise including cardio and weight resistance. Working on those all important “core” muscles- will help stabilize the pelvic region and present flat sculpted Bikini-Belly. But if working out is still not helping you achieve a desired Beach Body, no worries!
