Mofid Plastic Surgery Tummy Tuck Procedure

jen — Mon, 07 May 2012 18:05:05 +0000

Many people like to collect things… cards, antiques, stamps, etc. Parts of our body like to collect things as well, namely fat. The body area this happens in changes from person to person depending mostly on genetics, but for some people, the abdomen may be the area that is most susceptible to gaining and holding on to fat making it difficult to get rid of even with diet and exercise. Women who’ve given birth may also have a difficult time getting their mid-sections back to pre-baby form and may deal with excess sagging skin. Weight loss and gain and also contribute to problems in the mid-section and even abdominal muscles can become weak, stretched out or separated causing the abdomen to hang out further than it would normally.

Dr. Mofid can help both men and women improve their mid-section through Abdominoplasty, also known as a Tummy Tuck. During a Tummy Tuck procedure, Dr. Mofid removes excess skin and fatty tissue and tightens the abdominal muscles. He then closes the remaining skin creating a tighter, firmer, more contoured waist. The incision is generally made in a u-shape along the area that will be hidden by your underwear. In some cases, Liposuction may also be used to removed pockets of stubborn fat.

Abdominoplasty is not a form of weight loss. It is ideal for patients who are in good health and have realistic expectations. Contact our office to schedule your consultation and learn more about how you can benefit from San Diego Abdominoplasty.

San Diego Brachioplasty

Brachioplasty is the medical term for an Arm Lift procedure which removes excess sagging skin and or fat in the upper arms. Many people deal with sagging, excess skin after dramatic weight loss as well with age- in both of these cases the skin has lost some of it’s elasticity, or ability to bounce back into place. No amount of diet or excess changes sagging skin, but Brachioplasty can be a very valuable tool in achieving the tighter, more youthful arms you desire.

Ideal candidates for Brachioplasty have been at a stable, normal, healthy weight for a substantial period of time, are in good health, non-smokers and have realistic goals. To best determine if Brachioplasty is right for you, schedule a consultation with Dr. Mofid.

Both the effects of time and genetics can cause a heavy, sagging brow to develop. A heavy brow often creates an intense, unhappy, tired or even angry appearance, which in most cases is not desired. Dr. Mofid has helped several San Diego men and women achieve a higher brow and a more youthful and alert appearance through Brow Lift surgery.

Dr. Mofid works hard to cater to each patient’s individual needs and desires to create the best results possible for them. This helps to ensure a natural looking improvement. Dr. Mofid recommends the minimally invasive Endoscopic Brow Lift for many of his patients as it requires smaller incisions than the traditional Brow Lift and thus, has a shorter recovery time.

Rhinoplasty San Diego

There are many people that consider rhinoplasty for various reasons. People are often unhappy with the size or shape of their nose while others have difficulty breathing due to an abnormality in their nose. A skilled rhinoplasty surgeon, Dr. Mofid can help improve the appearance of your nose and improve your breathing abilities using the latest in nose surgery techniques.

A nose that is misshaped can take attention away from an otherwise beautiful face. A nose may be misshaped due to genetics or become misshaped due to injury. San Diego Rhinoplasty is effective in reducing the size of the nose, reshaping the end of the nose, removing a bump on the bridge of the nose, or create smaller nostrils. Dr. Mofid uses nose surgery to alter the appearance of the nose restoring balance and symmetry to the face.

Breathing issues may also be remedied using rhinoplasty surgery. While the outside of the nose may appear fine, the inner part of the nose may be to blame for breathing issues. Imperfections of the interior part of the nose may cause difficulty breathing or snoring. Dr. Mofid can alleviate these issues with rhinoplasty.

jen — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 10:39:03 +0000

Our abdomen is one of the many parts of the body that likes to collect fat. Once fat has made it’s self at home around the midsection, it is often very difficult to get rid of through traditional diet and exercise. Additionally, abdominal muscles that have become weak or separated may need help returning to a normal position. San Diego Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Mofid uses abdominoplasty to improve the appearance of your midsection.

Abdominoplasty, or more commonly known as a tummy tuck, is used to correct a protruding abdomen resulting from weak abdominal muscles, weight gain or pregnancy. Using abdominoplasty, Dr. Mofid is able to tighten abdominal muscles and excess fatty tissue and skin are removed improving the body contour. Liposuction can be used in conjunction with abdominoplasty to produce optimal results.

It is important to note that abdominoplasty is not a form of weight loss. Patients who benefit from abdominoplasty are in good health and relatively good shape. Contact our office to schedule your consultation and learn more about how you can benefit from San Diego tummy tuck surgery.
