Combination plastic surgery procedures in Sydney

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

It is common to do multiple facial cosmetic procedures at the same sitting, however one cannot be cavalier about it. Some factors to take into consideration are total anaesthesia time, total surface area of surgical fields, total length of surgery and , surgeon fatigue (both mental and physical), expected time of recovery from the surgery.

Commonly performed multiple facial cosmetic  procedures by Dr Tobias Pincock in Sydney are:
1. rhinoplasty and chin implant
2. rhinoplasty and blepharoplasty
3. facelift and necklift
4. facelift and blepharoplasty
5. facelift and blepharoplasty and browlift
6. rhinoplasty and necklift

If patients desire a body procedure and a facial procedure performed simultaneously then Dr Pincock works very closely with Dr Tavakoli who is amongst Sydney’s best breast augmentation and body cosmetic plastic surgeons. For more info visit www.drtavakoli.com.au

It is important to mention these to your surgeon at the time of consultation as it is impossible to add a procedure on the day of surgery as a “last minute decision”. Many times a patient is afraid to ask because they are worried about what the surgeon will think, but having an excellent result depends on very clear lines of communication between patient and surgeon.

Plan all these procedures carefully with your surgeon and discuss each risk and advantages and disadvantages of combining or separating these procedures.

Although Dr Pincock is not a fan of the “extreme makeover”, when planned carefully multiple procedures can have a dramatic effect on reducing ageing and improving ones appearance and self esteem.

Blepharoplasty Eyelift Eyelid Surgery in Sydney

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

Blepharoplasty is one of the most powerful procedures in the armamentarium of a facial plastic surgeon to combat ageing and rejuvenate the mid-third of the face. As we age the fat that normally cushions the eyeball can herniate out giving bags under the eyes or puffy appearing eyes – this makes one look older and tired. A similar process occurs to the upper eyelid skin causing excess laxity and drooping of the eyelid.

Most people are concerned that an eyelift will make them look strange or have a “done” appearance. The newer techniques of blepharoplasty (eyelift) that Dr Pincock has learned in the United States allows him to achieve a natural appearing result without visible scarring. http://www.sydneyfacialplastics.com.au/surgeon.html

Blepharoplasty-Eyelift-Eyelid Surgery

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

Blepharoplasty is a fantastic way to rejuvenate the face. Over the years the fat pad that the eyeball sits on to cushion it in the skull can herniate out from under the eye causing a puffy appearance or bags on the lower eyelid. On the upper eyelid skin can hang down making a person look tired and even obstruct vision.

Upper and lower blepharoplasty can be undertaken at the same time and in combination with other procedures, it is a very powerful technique to rejuvenate the face and turn back the clock.

Dr Pincock offers the latest techniques in this surgery that he learned overseas and has brought to Sydney. For more information see this website
