As we grow older, our skin tissue breaks down and loses its elasticity. Often times we struggle to hide and erase our wrinkles especially as we begin to notice the signs of aging. We have enclosed some suggestions to help you keep your skin smooth, glowing and gorgeous.
Non-Surgical Wrinkle Treatment Options
Most over the counter creams and lotions temporarily pump our skin with fluid. Medical treatments such as microdermabrasion and non-ablative laser treatments can remove the top layer of your skin and decrease lines to freshen your appearance. BOTOX® Cosmetic is another option to soften wrinkles. BOTOX® Cosmetic weakens the muscles in your face to reduce your fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, nose and forehead. JUVÉDERM®, Restylane® and Radiesse® are injectable treatments that fill wrinkles around your mouth and nose.
Skin Health
Taking the time to care of yourself in today’s world of busy schedules is important! You can help to maintain beautiful skin by living a healthy lifestyle with good nutrition, adequate hydration, regular exercise, proper rest, minimal alcohol consumption and smoking cessation.

Enlarged breasts in men, a condition called gynecomastia, can be quite distressing. Men with gynecomastia often feel self-conscious, un-masculine, insecure and even depressed.
Just how common is Gynecomastia? Nearly half of all men may experience the condition at some time in their lives. The good news is that gynecomastia usually disappears on its own and there are effective surgical treatments such as liposuction available for unfortunate circumstances when it doesn’t.
The causes of gynecomastia include obesity, hormonal imbalances, genetic disorders, illicit drugs such as marijuana, steroid abuse, medication side effects, chronic liver disease and aging. No matter what the cause, men suffering from gynecomastia are usually embarrassed by their bodies.
Male breast reduction surgery is a very effective treatment option designed to remove excess tissue and re-contour the breasts. The surgery is most often performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient. Patients can usually return to work after one week. Please contact our office if you are interested in obtaining additional information about male breast reduction.

One of the most popular procedures performed by Dr. Bayati is breast enhancement surgery. There are several issues to consider before undergoing this procedure. Your choice to engage in this surgery can be due to a change in your breast’s shape after weight loss, a desire to reshape your breast’s after breast feeding or to balance breasts that are different sizes. We hope that this blog entry will help you understand your options.
Breast Augmentation with Implants
Breast augmentation with implants can enhance your breasts if you are unhappy with size and or shape. Breast augmentation can correct breast asymmetry. Breast implants will help to increase the size of your breast, but they may not adequately lift your breasts to correct the effects of weight fluctuations, pregnancy, gravity or dis-proportioned breasts.
Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Breast lift (mastopexy) will re-elevate the breasts to their proper positions by removal of excess skin and does not alter the volume significantly. This may be the ideal procedure for someone who is happy with the size of their breasts.
Breast Augmentation Combined with Breast Lift
Many women are candidates for breast augmentation combined with breast lift (mastopexy). Dr. Bayati will recommend this procedure for women who have drooping breasts, with nipples below the fold and would like to increase the size of their breasts. Most women seeking to enhance their breasts often combine a breast lift with augmentation.

Spring is already here! You have been eating right and exercising regularly, but are you ready to wear that two piece bikini that you bought for your new year’s resolution? Are you having a hard time with those stubborn problem areas? Liposuction can help you achieve a more youthful shapely appearance.
Liposuction is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures. It can provide very satisfying results by helping you to get rid of those stubborn areas and improve your overall body shape. Liposuction is both a scientific and an artistic procedure. There are several liposuction techniques including suction assisted liposuction, power assisted lipectomy, ultrasound assisted lipectomy among others. Dr. Bayati will help you determine which technique is best for your needs.
The duration of the procedure varies between 1 – 3 hours, depending upon how much work is being done. Most people can return to work in a few days to a week. Liposuction produces immediate results and should be used to address your problem areas. Excessive weight gain in the range of 10-15 pounds can diminish the results. Therefore, it is important to maintain a healthy weight before and after surgery. Dr. Bayati strongly recommends being diligent in dieting and exercising to maintain your results.
