Newport Beach Plastic Surgeon | M. Hugh Bailey, M.D., F.A.C.S.As a board certified plastic surgeon, in Newport Beach, (Orange County, California), I created this web site to help you understand what plastic surgery can (and cannot) do for you. It covers the more common procedures - breast augmentation, face lifts, rhinoplasty (nose surgery), abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and more.
How people judge our physical appearance has a great effect on how they treat us in many situations — from potential employers or customers, to a potential spouse. Changing a feature that has always bothered you will not only make you look better, but also feel better about yourself. People of all ages, from all walks of life are choosing to have aesthetic plastic surgery. Surgical improvement of the weak areas of your appearance creates a more pleasing harmony, both in the face and body. The costs of plastic surgery are modest in relation to the potential improvements. And of course, the results are often long-lasting or permanent. The technical capabilities of aesthetic plastic surgery have also expanded rapidly. As a patient, your choices have widened dramatically. More precise and long-lasting corrections are possible. You will need a thorough consultation with a plastic surgeon to make a wise decision. Making that appointment could be the first step to changing your life. Cosmetic Plastic Surgery in Orange CountyPlastic surgery includes cosmetic (or aesthetic) surgery of the face, eyelids, nose, breast and body, liposuction, and resurfacing procedures such as laser, as well as reconstructive surgery. There are risks and complications as well as dramatic results. While 2,000,000 Americans will undergo plastic surgery to change their looks, several times as many will have less invasive procedures, such as Botox™ injections, laser treatments, peels or injections of fillers such as Restylane™, Juvederm™, collagen or fat. In Orange County, plastic surgery has become an accepted part of everyday life. Unfortunately, because bad results are noticeable, while good results look natural, many people get a negative impression of what plastic surgery can do. The changes possible through plastic surgery have expanded rapidly. Plastic surgeons who perform both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery are transferring the newer reconstructive techniques to the aesthetic field. Craniofacial surgery can alter every proportion and shape in the face. Endoscopic techniques reduce the size of incisions for some procedures. Unfortunately many physicians with little or no plastic surgery training have entered the field, sometimes with devastating results for their patients. In Orange County, there are dermatologists performing facelift surgery and ear, nose and throat specialists performing breast augmentation! Often trendy names are invented and older procedures are re-named and claimed as new inventions. As your mother told you, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! This site reflects my personal views and extensive experience as a plastic surgeon in Newport Beach. It provides general information. It does not cover every possible procedure, and cannot be a substitute for a thorough consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. When you make that appointment as an informed patient, with realistic expectations, it will make be much easier to pick the right surgeon and procedures. With good decisions, plastic surgery can be a wonderfully positive force in your life. |
