Losing weight, especially 100lbs or more, is a spectacular achievement that should be celebrated. It is the reward of weeks and often months of hard work and dedication, both in the gym and in the kitchen. Most people say that one of the things they look forward to most is the radical change in their outward appearance. Unfortunately, there is a side affect of massive weight loss that most people are unaware of, yet are often affected by—extra, lose sagging skin.

As we gain weight over the years, our skin has to stretch to accommodate the extra bulk. However, in the situation of massive weight loss the skin often will not return back into its natural starting position as one might hope. Instead, as body mass is reduced the body’s skin is left loss, hanging and sagging in unwanted places. This occurs over the entirely of the body, including the face and neck, and can be an unwelcome surprise for those who complete a major weight loss.

“Major weight loss from bariatric/gastric bypass surgery, diet, or exercise can accelerate aging and lead to sagging of the facial skin. Facial aging occurs faster in individuals who have lost significant weight because the fatty layer beneath the skin surface thins and diminishes at a much faster rate compared to a person who has not lost a lot of weight in a short period of time. Natural Facelift is an ideal for patient with massive weight loss”

Board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Sadati, has developed a revolutionary procedure to correct and remove the excess skin called the Natural Facelift. Dr. Sadati has been nationally recognized for his self-developed facial muscle tightening technique, and published in major plastic surgery journals and publications. He often combines this renowned technique with Facial Fat Grafting utilizing Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). By performing these two facial rejuvenation procedures simultaneously, the face is restored to its natural youthfulness, combating the affects of major weight loss.

Dr. Kevin Sadati is one of the top California facial plastic and ENT surgeons specializing in minimally invasive facial and nasal surgery. He is board certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Otolarynology/ Facial Plastic Surgery (AOBOO-HNS), Diplomate of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery (ABCS) and a member of the prestigious American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery (AAFRS).

Dr. Kevin Sadati has over a decade of experience in the field of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, as well as nose and sinus surgery, and has become one of the most sought after Newport Beach and Orange County facelift, rhinoplasty, face and neck liposuction and sinus surgery specialists.

Healdsburg, California (PRWEB) April 29, 2015

Renowned facial cosmetic surgeon Dr. Stanley Jacobs is introducing two all-new “mini” procedures targeting specific zones of the face and in so doing, is introducing a new concept to the field of facial cosmetic surgery, refining the idea of the traditional facelift in the San Francisco area: the ZoneLift. The Mini Neck Lift and the Mini Cheek Lift are two new procedures that are available now in his practice. For a candidate patient, the procedures deliver results to a target area of the face while shortening the healing time and reducing the cost—and both procedures may be done under local rather than general anesthetic.

“Less can absolutely be more,” Dr. Jacobs says of this approach. “My ZoneLift procedures, the Mini Neck and Mini Cheek Lifts, offer patients the flexibility to address a specific problem area without the need for a more comprehensive facelift. This is especially important since there are often patients who don’t need what a ‘full’ facelift has to offer.”

The new ZoneLift procedures were developed gradually over many years, but formally introduced as stand-alone procedures only recently in Dr. Jacobs’ practice. In reality, Dr. Jacobs has been delivering results on a zone basis for some time—each zone generally representing a component of a traditional deep plane facelift. Facial cosmetic surgeons naturally divide the surgical field into zones, and a deep plane facelift is the result of multiple zones being refined simultaneously, with the result being the sum of the changes made. For most patients, a facelift involves the neck, cheek, and jowl areas. Dr. Jacobs’ MiniLift procedure addresses the cheek and the jowl.

“My experience and the needs expressed by my patients drew me to this approach over time,” Dr. Jacobs says. “A patient would come in with what they termed ‘turkey neck’ and think they needed a facelift. But that was their only problem area, and when I explained that it could be addressed in a more area-specific way, they were thrilled. It just wasn’t what they expected.”

The ability to offer the new procedures under local anesthetic may be a significant factor for some patients. Local anesthetics shorten the patient’s immediate post-op period, since the patient is conscious throughout the procedure.

The targeting of the ZoneLift offers a variety of significant benefits to the patient:

A ZoneLift may be all that patients need to achieve the outcome they are looking for if one problem area is more of a concern than another
Injectables such as collagen, Restylane®, Botox® Cosmetic, and others have natural limits on what they can achieve for the patient, and a ZoneLift may be an alternative and more long-lasting way to address the problem area
The targeted approach may offer a patient the ability to address a problem area earlier, before a more complete facial cosmetic surgical approach might be considered
The neck is a problem area that cannot be addressed with injectables, so a Mini Neck Lift is the only way to address the neck while not undertaking a facelift
The recovery period for the patient is shorter, with a smaller surgical field and smaller incisions
The cost is notably lower as compared to a facelift procedure
Mini Cheek Lift and Mini Neck Lift may be done under local anesthetic

Dr. Stanley W. Jacobs is a triple-board-certified facial cosmetic surgeon who has specialized in facial cosmetic procedures for more than 25 years, performing more than 7,000 surgeries in that time. He is an elected House Delegate for the California Medical Association, a member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and a published researcher and lecturer. He is the innovator of the SynergyLift™, Serial VectorLift™, and MiniLift procedures. His practice is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Care. In addition to his successful surgical practice, Dr. Jacobs is also CEO of Stanley Jacobs MD Skin Care, a growing skin care company with products inspired by Ancient Egyptian formulas Dr. Jacobs deciphered from the Edwin-Smith Papyrus and refined to create new, modern formulas for tighter, youthful skin.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 28, 2015

Dr. Benjamin Stong of Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery, LLC in Atlanta, Georgia proudly offers the latest in hair loss treatment. Dr. Stong is double board certified and the only facial plastic surgeon in Atlanta to offer the NeoGraft Hair Transplant System. NeoGraft involves the automated use of Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), which is considered the gold standard in hair transplantation.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, hair loss affects over 50 million men and 30 million women in the United States. Hair loss can be caused by a variety of factors including hormonal changes, aging, genetics, illness and medications. Dr. Stong is qualified to accurately diagnose a patient’s hair loss cause and recommend the best possible hair restoration procedure. The NeoGraft system has helped countless men with male pattern baldness, restoring a full, healthy head of hair with natural hairlines.

In the past, hair transplant surgery consisted of a “strip method” technique, which can leave unsightly linear scarring and restrict a patient’s hairstyle. With the NeoGraft technology, patients can now undergo natural hair restoration surgery without the use of a scalpel or the need for stitches. NeoGraft is an automated machine for Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant surgery. It relies on the precision and skill of a surgeon to guide the device and extract individual follicular units from the donor area of the scalp. Healthy grafts are then implanted into the recipient area of the scalp in a way that is consistent with a patient’s natural hair growth pattern.

NeoGraft offers invaluable advantages to both men and women with hair loss. The procedure is highly efficient, requires minimal downtime and delivers superior, long-lasting results. “I feel fortunate to help patients, both men and women, with such innovative and minimally invasive hair transplant techniques,” said Dr. Stong. “Hair loss can significantly hinder your quality of life, impacting your emotional well being and even your professional career. We are pleased to offer NeoGraft as an effective, state-of-the-art hair loss solution that is both comfortable and convenient.”

The cost of the Neograft procedure is based strictly on the number of grafts needed to achieve a patient’s ideal results. Dr. Stong also offers Follicular Unit Transfer and Non-surgical hair loss treatment in addition to the NeoGraft automated FUE procedure.

There will be representatives from Neograft® at the event, as well as a presentation on medical hair loss and the Neograft® procedure. We will be highlighting the advantages of the Neograft® procedure compared to traditional strip method techniques as well as other FUE systems including minimal downtime, no scarring, and a 98% survival rate for donor grafts.

Dr. Stong believes strongly in humanitarian efforts. Dr. Stong is on the board of the Christy Sims Foundation, has volunteered his facial plastic surgery services to Christy and is also in charge of fundraising for the Christy Sims Foundation.

Follow us on LinkedIn – Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) is an inorganic mineral that finds extensive use as a functional filler in the production of plastics, paper, and rubber. Along with talc and kaolin, the mineral is extensively used in metalloid mineral applications. Growth in the global calcium carbonate market is heavily reliant on the health of the paper, automotive, plastics, and construction industries. The paper industry’s shift from acid to alkaline-based process technology is expected to benefit demand for precipitated calcium carbonate derived from natural minerals. Consumer demand for high quality, waterproof, anti-smudge paper products will drive growth in the paper industry in the coming years. In the plastic processing industry, ground calcium carbonate finds indispensable use as an additive that helps improve surface opacity and gloss and increase impact strength of plastics. Growing demand for bioplastics is expected to spur volume consumption of calcium carbonate in the plastic processing industry.

Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) represents the largest and the fastest growing product market, supported by growing demand for paints and plastics from the construction sector in Asia-Pacific. China ranks as a major producer of calcium carbonate worldwide. The last decade witnessed the establishment of several satellite WGCC (wet ground calcium carbonate) plants in the country. Marble deposits represent the chief source of calcium carbonate for these plants. The increase in licenses granted for mining marble will additionally benefit production of premium ultra-fine wet ground calcium carbonate in the country. A key tend in the global market is the growing prominence of nano calcium carbonate. With particle sizes ranging from 1nm and 100nm, nano calcium carbonate is highly favored in plastic and rubber production due to characteristics such as high reinforcing effect, dispersion and transparency. With most of the current demand for calcium carbonate met by low- and middle-grade material, there exists huge potential for premium-grade calcium carbonate, especially in applications such as automobile paints, adhesives, cosmetics, ink, food, and pharmaceutical industries.

As stated by the new market research report on Calcium Carbonate, Asia-Pacific represents the largest and the fastest growing market worldwide. Growth in the region is led by the rise in paper production, establishment of new paper mills, and the trend towards the use of higher mineral fillers in paper to reduce pulp usage. China, in particular, is expected to remain a major growth driver spurred by increasing use in the paper and paperboard manufacturing sector.

Key players covered in the report include Excalibar Minerals LLC, Huber Engineered Materials, Imerys, Maruo Calcium Co. Ltd., Minerals Technologies Inc., Mississippi Lime Company, Okutama Kogyo Co. Ltd., Omya AG, Schaefer Kalk GmbH & Co. KG, Shiraishi Kogyo Kaisha Ltd., and Solvay S.A, among others.

The research report titled “Calcium Carbonate: A Global Strategic Business Report” announced by Global Industry Analysts Inc., provides a comprehensive review of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, restraints, market share, size and demand projections and forecasts. Major geographic regions covered include the US, Canada, Japan, Europe (France, Germany, Italy, UK, Spain, Russia and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, India, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), Middle East, and Latin America (Brazil and Rest of Latin America). Product segments analyzed include Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) and Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC). End-use markets analyzed include Paper, Paints & Coatings, Adhesives & Sealants, Plastics, and Others. The report also offers coverage on mergers, acquisitions, product launches and other strategic industry activities of major global and regional players.
