Every new technique in plastic surgery goes through the zealot phase both because it is new and there is FOMO. “Over the muscle” breast augmentation is the latest example. It is heavily marketed by an implant manufacturer whose product is especially suited to this approach. Also, some surgeons looking for a differentiating niche embrace it enthusiastically. It definitely is a valuable addition to our tool box of techniques but more time is needed to appreciate not just its advantages but also its limitations

There are a lot of different ways to accomplish breast augmentation today. The current rage is using silicone implants placed in front of the pectoral muscle. This is a great option for patients with favorable anatomy and more conservative size goals. The method shown here offers the most stable long term results in suitable candidates. Having no visible scar is another advantage but not the main driving force in selecting this method. Additionally, MRI scans are not needed to monitor implant integrity down the road when saline implants are used.

Grateful to be recognized as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor in their annual peer nominated survey, now for the 25th time in a row. The real star of this duo though is the girl of my dreams: the first woman Chairman of the Real Estate Board of New York in their 130 year history, the most NYC Real Estate Deal of the Year Awards in history (10), the most space leased for tenants (over 100 million square feet), a key player in Times Square revitalization in the 90s as well as leasing most of the new buildings at the rebuilt World Trade Center site. Truly the GOAT! Here listed #15 in Crains 100 most powerful NYC leaders.
First time facelifts in patients well over 65 can achieve excellent results. However, they are more challenging because the skin is much thinner and less elastic. Also, facial fat content is typically depleted making it difficult to create elegant contours. These cases require much more finesse than the results in 45 year olds commonly touted on social media!
