Fabulous Faces and Sensational Skin
State-of-the-art computer imaging can help you see the changes that
can be made. We believe you should be shown.
Great skin will enhance any cosmetic surgery result. Sun
damage and aging changes take their toll on our facial appearance. As
we age the skin loses its elasticity, sags, and wrinkles become etched
in the skin surface. Other changes include sunspots and uneven p igmentation
and the whole face begins to take on a deflated look as we lose the
fullness of youth. Surgical and non-surgical treatments should address
all these changes to restore a natural and more youthful appearance.
At The Bougainvillea Clinique we take a comprehensive approach to facial
rejuvenation for a balanced, healthy and rested look.
Your consultation will address all these issues, including
the upper, middle, lower face and neck, as well as the condition of
your skin. We will then recommend an individualized treatment plan.
We make recommendations to suit your needs and your budget. Our recommendations
do not always include surgery. Frequently, our patients can significantly
improve their appearances with a comprehensive skin health program and
minimally invasive rejuvenation procedures.
Call us at 407-678-3116 or E-mail
us today to find out more.
For those patients who do require surgery, we perform
the following facial rejuvenation procedures:
Facelift
A facelift, is a procedure designed to diminish signs of
aging in the face and neck. It can correct a variety of unwanted flaws,
including wrinkling caused by loose and sagging skin, jowls in the lower
cheek area and skin folds in the neck. Maintain
a more refreshed and revitalized appearance. Facelifts are often done
in conjunction with blepharoplasty and facial liposuction.
For more information on facelifts, please e-mail
us or call us at
407-678-3116.
Forehead Lift
Many of our patients have forehead lifts performed to treat conditions
associated with aging. A forehead lift is often performed in conjunction
with a facelift to achieve a more harmonious and complete facial rejuvenation.
A forehead lift is also appropriate for treatment of certain inherited
traits. Younger adults who have a low brow or who already have deep
frown lines due to stress or overactivity of muscles may benefit from
the procedure.
A forehead lift can improve sagging or low position of the eyebrows,
creating a tired or sad appearance, deep horizontal creases across the
forehead frown lines, or furrows, between the eyebrows and sometimes
across the top of the nose. Today, forehead lifts are can be performed
endoscopically with very small incisions.

us or call us at
407-678-3116.
Endoscopic Rejuvenation
An endoscopic facelift is the medical name for an improved plastic surgical
technique that provides facial rejuvenation with minimal scars. Endoscopy
is a type of surgical technique that may prevent the need for long incisions,
which allows faster healing, and results in fewer side effects than
traditional techniques.
Traditionally to perform a brow and facelift, the surgeon needed to
make an incision from ear to ear on top of the head and incisions around
the ear to the posterior neck. Endoscopic technique allows for minimal
scars. Using a slender wand like tube with a microscopic camera attached,
Dr. Hartog can lift and tuck various areas of the face through just
a few very small incisions along the hairline, on the back of the ear
and under the chin. This technique not only requires less time for recovery;
it results in a more natural individualized look without the telltale
signs of standard facelift procedures.

us or call us at
407-678-3116.
Temporal Brow And Midface Lifts
Look in the mirror; if you're 35 to 45 years old, chances are you will
notice some drooping of your brow and cheeks, and an increase in the
skin fold on each side of your nose. Now place your hands on the skin
on the sides of your face in the area of the temples and cheeks, and
gently pull the skin up and back a little. Notice how this opens up
your eyes, increases the prominence of your cheekbones, flattens the
folds on the sides of your nose, and just takes 5 to 10 years off your
age.
Well this is the type of effect you can achieve with a Temporal
Brow and Midface Lift. This minimally invasive procedure is performed
through short incisions behind the hairline, with or without an endoscope.
Often it is performed in conjunction with other procedures such as upper
eyelid skin removal (blepharoplasty), fat injection (lipostructure)
to hollow areas and facial skin resurfacing with laser or chemical peel.
The result is a refreshed, rested appearance without an 'operated' look.
For more information on facelifts, please e-mail
us or call us at
407-678-3116.
Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
The eyelids are often the first facial features to show signs of aging
resulting in a sad, tired appearance in even
the most energetic individual. Blepharoplasty can return youthful elegance
to an individual's face, making the eyes appear brighter and more refreshed.
Browpexy is another procedure used to lift the brow without surgery.
Some individuals experience an accumulation of fat in the lower eyelids
creating persistent "bags" under the eyes. These "bags", however, are
not always related to aging. This tendency may be inherited and may
appear in early life before the aging process becomes noticeable. Other
individuals may notice the skin of the upper eyelids may become lax
and impart a hooded appearance to the upper eyelids and, in severe instances,
even obscure vision.
"Dear
Dr. Hartog, I had interviewed well for a position that was very important
to me, however they indicated that I simply was not enthusiastic.
There was no pain, I never even took a pain pill and after 1 week
I was able to return to work. Considering that you had lifted my eyes,
removed extra skin on the lids and applied a chemical Peel, I was
amazed at the rate I healed.
About 4 weeks after the surgery people began to ask if I had lost
weight or what had I done. Now, people continue to be amazed at my
age and I have even resorted to pulling out my driver's license to
prove my age. I look wonderful! I look awake, rested and youthful.
I don't look surprised!
I interviewed again for that position and of course I was selected,
I was told I appeared so energetic and enthusiastic there was no competition.
Thank you and your staff for a wonderful experience."
-Deborah J. Turner

Necklift
In some patients Dr. Hartog can perform an isolated "necklift". The
necklift can be thought of as "the part of the facelift which happens
behind the ear and down into the neck". This procedure tightens the
"turkey gobbler" in the midline of the neck, then tightens the neck
skin upward behind the ears. The necklift can be a good alternative
for creating a less lax neck and less draping in someone who has no
sagging of the cheeks or jawline.

Laser, Chemical And Microdermabrasion
Skin Resurfacing
Skin Age And Sun Damage
Reversal Laser Skin Resurfacing.
Laser resurfacing offers individuals dramatically softer, healthier-looking
skin by smoothing wrinkles, scars and other blemishes. It is a relatively
new technology that is proving to be less abrasive to the skin than
traditional treatments. Remarkably, the results of laser resurfacing
are immediate, especially when used to remove fine to moderate wrinkles.
Make sure to inquire about the new Erbium laser techniques.

Chemical Peel.
A chemical peel can make an individual look years younger by removing
and softening age-related wrinkles and premature wrinkling caused by
sun exposure. The Obagi Blue Chemical Peel is a medium depth peel that
is ideally suited for younger patients with sun damaged skin. The procedure
evens the skin's texture by chemically removing the outer layers and
encouraging the formation of new skin cells.
Depending on the degree of wrinkling, a light, medium or deep peel
may be recommended. The effects of chemical peeling are particularly
pleasing when combined with a facelift, and is more economical than
laser resurfacing.
Microdermabrasion and DermaPeel.
Traditional dermabrasion is painful and includes a long healing process,
a risk of infection and the possibility of unnatural looking skin texture.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive, painless procedure used to minimize
fine lines. In conjunction with a natural, skin care program, microdermabrasion
treatments can help diminish many skin imperfections and restore the
glow and natural vitality of youthful skin.
DermaPeel is a revolutionary new skin restoration process, commonly
referred to as "the lunchtime peel" because the procedure takes only
minutes to perform and most people can return to work immediately. Used
at exclusive European spas for over ten years, this unique skin rejuvenation
technique has recently received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) in the United States. The DermaPeel procedure uses highly controlled
vacuum pressure to move microscopic abrasive crystals over the surface
of the skin. This action causes little or no discomfort while it gently
removes the outer layer of the skin. By repeating this process over
the course of several weeks or months, the younger, softer skin moves
to the surface, resulting in significant improvements in texture and
color.

AlloDerm®.
AlloDerm can be used in many areas of the body, feels very natural,
and is the only available product capable of regenerating normal soft

of human tissue. Also, the graft does not have the feeling of hardness,
reported with many synthetic materials, such as collagen.
AlloDerm has been available since 1994; it is safe and is regulated
by the FDA.
Fat Injection. (Lipostructure).
Recyclable body fat is well suited for facial contour enhancement. Fat
Transfer can be used to highlight the lips, cheekbones, and jawline,
and is effective in improving deep lines around the mouth. Re-injection
of fat lost from the area of the eyelids and orbits can restore a more
youthful appearance. The injected fat will remain long-term in most
areas, although touchups may occasionally be needed.

improve your appearance, call us at 407-678-3116 or E-mail
us today.
LipostructureTM
- Restoring The Fullness Of Youth
Recently featured in USA Today, restoring the structure of youth
with fat grafting is now a reality. If you look at a young face, it's
round and full, not angular and hollow. As we age, our faces become
smaller; almost like a balloon deflating, and as it deflates the skin
wrinkles and sags.
To see how this has occurred in your face, look at photographs from
5, 10, 15 and 20 years ago. Using your own fat many of these signs of
aging can be reversed. The technique of LipostructureTM
gently harvests your own fat in a similar way to regular liposuction.
The fat can then be reinjected where needed through small specially
designed needles, into the lips, nasolabial folds, chin, and around
the eye and temple areas. Other defects in other parts of the body,
including liposuction problems, also can be improved with this technique.
The procedure can be done in one sitting, or the fat can be frozen
and reinjected in smaller amounts every few weeks. This is a very safe
procedure, and can often be done under local anesthetic alone. This
technique can also be used to correct a variety of contour deformities,
including contour irregularities of the legs, arms, face and chest.

us or call us at 407-678-3116.
Nose reshaping - Rhinoplasty
Anyone who is self-conscious about his or her nose will find rhinoplasty
offers a newfound aura of confidence. The procedure can significantly
enhance an individual's facial appearance by creating a more graceful
nose and an enhanced profile. Dr. Hartog customizes the rhinoplasty
to uniquely complement each individual's face whether the goal is to
remove a bump, taper a tip, or in some cases, build up nasal depressions.
Often, a rhinoplasty is performed in conjunction with a chin augmentation
to obtain optimal aesthetic balance and a balanced
profile with the help of computer imaging.
"I had interviewed several other surgeons, all of which wanted
to break my facial bones in order to complete my rhinoplasty. I only
wanted my nose modified, not dramatically changed and I really didn't
want such severe measures taken. Dr. Hartog really listened to me
and agreed that I did not need to have bones broken. He was incredibly
professional and assured me that he could give
me the desired results without any breakage or outer incisions. I
was so impressed and comfortable with his professionalism and interest
in my well being, that I decided to also look into breast augmentation.
We discussed my options, and he shared his recommendation with me.
Unlike other surgeons, whom were pushing to do the two surgeries at
different times, Dr. Hartog was confident and comfortable with doing
them both at one time. (I preferred this as I could only take a limited
time off from work.) His staff was supportive and wonderful, and my
results were fantastic. I would, without question, do both surgeries
again. I feel great about myself and confident in my total appearance.
If there is ever another procedure I feel the need to do, Dr. Hartog
will be the only one to perform it. I have referred 5 people so far
and 3 hired Dr. Hartog and were 100% satisfied. Thanks for everything!"

Chin Augmentation
The chin plays an important role in the overall shape and harmony of
the face. Some individuals are born with small chins; some have improper
alignment of the jaw causing what appears to be a small chin, while
still others have a chin that recedes with time along with the natural
aging process. In many instances, Dr. Hartog suggests chin augmentation,
in combination with rhinoplasty or a face-lift to create more balance
between the nose and chin, or to create a more defined chin-jawline,
i.e. a weak chin can exaggerate a double chin or long nose.

us or call us at
407-678-3116. 16.
Facial Liposuction
Small areas of fat around the face can be difficult to lose without
the help of liposuction. The fat is removed by using a very small suction
cannula. The incisions are placed in hidden locations such as inside
the nose, the corner of the mouth and under the chin. In some patients
fullness of the chin or the nasolabial fold may not be due to fat alone.
In these cases it cannot be corrected by liposuction alone.

BOTOX® Cosmetic And Muscle Resection
Are you tired of those frown lines between your eyes, and those crowsfeet
every time you smile? Do you have a worried look all the time? A simple,
non-surgical solution is BOTOX® Cosmetic.
Minute amounts of BOTOX® Cosmetic are injected into the muscles causing these
unwanted frown lines, crowsfeet, and even neck muscles disappear within
a few days. An added benefit of BOTOX® Cosmetic injected in the crowsfeet areas,
is a noticeable elevation of the outer brow, resulting in a 'chemical
browlift'.

BOTOX® Cosmetic was originally developed to treat severe muscle spasms around
the eyes and other nerve or muscle disorders. The substance is purified
Botulinum Toxin, and despite sounding ominous, is remarkably safe in
the doses used for wrinkle treatment. Side effects are rare, and are
limited to mild headaches occasionally just after the treatment, and
very occasionally, involvement of the eyelid, resulting in a temporary
slight eyelid droop.
Unfortunately the effect on the wrinkles is temporary, lasting from
4 to 6 months at a time. Notwithstanding the temporary nature of the
effect, the treatment can be repeated, with no known ill effects.
