Smartlipo

SmartLipo has been around long enough now, that it has created a reputation for itself.  It is a successful procedure to remove fat and tighten skin.  Dr. John Millard has been using SmartLipo for well over 2 years and has trained many physicians on this technology, through his company the Advanced Body Sculpting Institute.  Now, as of recently, SmartLipo has come out with an even more efficient machine called the SmartLipo Triplex™.  It is designed to deliver high-powered fat absorption and tissue tightening through tissue coagulation.  The technology allows for less surgery time creating the same, if not better results, than the previous SmartLipo machine.  Dr. Millard is one of the worlds leading experts in the field of liposuction and is very excited about this new technology.

Vaser Hi Def and Fat Transfer to the Breast

Dr.  John Millard , a Denver based Plastic Surgeon was featured on The Early Show on Monday October 5, 2009. To view a video of the interview, please go to: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5363689n&tag=contentMain;contentBody

Dr. Millard showcased a 44 year old female patient who had Vaser Hi Def Liposuction to her abdomen and fat transfer to her breasts. Her results are amazing! The patient worked out daily and watch what she ate, but like most of us, had fat in areas that just wouldn’t go away with regular exercccise and a healthy diet. Genetics play a big role in where we have stubborn fat deposits. That’s where Vaser Hi Def Liposuction comes in. Dr. Millard is able to remove the fat and actually sculpt the body to make it have a more athletic appearance. With this particular patient, he then took some of the fat that he had removed from her abdomen and put it in her breasts. The results are very natural and it;s a wondeful alternative to those who don’t want an actual implant placed in their breasts.

Dr. Millard is the founder of the Advanced Body Sculpting Institute, a company that trains Doctors from all over the world on Liposcution.

Plastic Surgery and Scarring

When thinking about cosmetic surgery, one must consider a scar in order to complete the procedure.  You can have the procedure, but will have a scar to show for it.  In most cases, scars are placed in less noticeable places such as the belly button, under the breasts, hidden beneath underwear and/or in the arm pits.  The scars will appear red and raised after surgery, but with time, they should lighten in color and flatten out.  Some skin types, particularly Asian, have more difficulty in post-operative healing of the scars.  They may keloid (be raised above the skin) and appear darker.  It is important not to expose your scars to the sun for a minimum of 6-12 months to keep the scars from hyper pigmenting.  Sunscreen is always a good scar protector.  The most important thing to remember when considering cosmetic surgery, is scars will typically fade but they will not disappear completely.

Dr. John Millard is a very skilled Plastic Surgeon and does amazing work to minimize scarring. If you would like more information on any body procedures or breast procedures that Dr. Millard offers, please contact us at (303) 792-5665 or send us an e-mail at info@millardplasticsurgery.com

Fat Transfer to the Breast!

Finally, we have the technology to transfer fat from out “problem” areas to our breasts!  Something us women have been waiting for, years.  We used to joke about it, asking why can’t we take fat from our love handles and transfer it up here, to our breasts?  It’s a fairly new technique in which we are still perfecting.  Dr. Millard injects fat, more than necessary, into the breasts because not all of the fat will “take”.  Typically, your breasts would be taped after surgery for a couple of weeks and then into a support bra for a few months.  It is important to keep the newly planted fat as still as possible for about three months.  Hence the reason you’ll wear a sport bra for so long.

This technique allows women to have fuller breasts without having implants.  Although, the gel implants are FDA approved and are said to be safe, some women simply prefer not to have a foreign body for breast enlargement. 

To view before and after photos of this procedure or any other procedure that Dr. Millard does, please visit our website at http://www.millardplasticsurgery.com/MILL_Search.asp.

Tummy Tuck

Tummy tucks are one of the most profound surgeries.  It flattens the stomach in such a way that people feel dramatically different about their bodies, immediately!  Although it is a long recovery, each patient seems to be thrilled they did it.  The full recovery is approximately 6 weeks.  Patients tend walk slightly bent over for a couple of weeks, experience a little soreness in their backs and abdomen.  Dr. Millard pulls the abdominal muscle together in order to get rid of the diastasis (separation of the abdominal muscles likely due to pregnancies).  He also removes all excess skin from below the breast line down to the pubic area.  If a patient has stretch marks, it is not unusual for Dr. Millard to be able to move most of the stretch marks to the lower abdomen, if not completely remove them.  A post-operative tummy tuck patient is pleased when they can fit into smaller jeans, not have an overhang of excess, loose skin.  It’s quite impressive!

To view some of Dr. Millard’s results, please visit our photo gallery. If you are interested in more information on tummy tucks, please send us an e-mail at info@millardplasticsurgery.com or call us at 303-792-5665.

VASER Liposelection vs MPX SmartLipo

There are several differences and several similarities between the two technologies.   Both technologies require three steps.  The first step is the infusion which consist of the injection of the tumescent solution.  The second step is the “melting” of the fat either by ultrasound with VASER or laser with MPX.  The third step is the actual suction of the emulsified fat.   The VASER has been around longer and tends to be used in the main surgery center while a patient is under anesthesia.  The MPX is typically used in the minor procedure room where the patient does not have to be under anesthesia.  The MPX is used for smaller areas in which we could complete in less that 3 hours.  If we do much more than this, the patient tends to get uncomfortable, even though they are given oral medications to help them relax.  The VASER is quite speedy and can pull fat off a bit faster than the MPX but tends to be more uncomfortable for a patient if they are awake.  Hence the reason we use anesthesia while using the VASER.  Finally, the MPX is known to have a bit more skin tightening effects.  The VASER does show some, but the SmartLipo tends to tighten more and is good for arms, necks and inner thighs.

Dr. John Millard is a world renowned trainor for both technologies and is considered an expert in liposuction and body sculpting. If you would like more information on this procedure or any other procedures offered at Millard Plastic Surgery Center, please send us an e-mail at info@millardplasticsurgerycenter or you can reach us via phone at (303) 792-5665. To view a photo gallery of Dr. Millard’s before and after photos, please click here.
