Ulthera is a device which provides a gentle lift to skin whilst also tightening it. It targets focused ultrasound into the deepest areas of the skin which tend to 'loosen' as a person ages. The ultrasound has a tightening effect in that deepest layer which provides the lifted appearance on the surface. Throughout January 2015, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka has featured several skin tightening devices in his educational videos, and this week (04feb15) he explains how the Ulthera device works.

Breast augmentation, whilst popular, is a big commitment for women to make, especially as it is a challenge to realistically experience the look, feel and size of a breast augmentation, without actually having the surgery. Board certified plastic surgeon, Dr Norman Rowe has addressed this challenge by creating the Instabreast procedure where saline is injected into the breast to provide a temporary increase in breast size which lasts around 24 hours. It provides a realistic experience for women and helps them to decide if in fact having breast augmentation surgery really is the right choice for them. Dr Rowe, who has a well-known practice on the Upper East Side in New York city, is a repeat guest this week on Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today on webtalkradio.net, when he talks with show host, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka about the Instabreast procedure.

Breast surgery continues to be one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures, because breasts are a very important aspect of a woman's femininity and sadly, many women are unhappy with their breasts.

Breast surgery procedures and techniques have developed over the last few years, resulting in a much greater range of options to choose from if a woman decides that surgery is what she wants. But, it is very important that they take enough time to understand those choices, and to discuss all of the issues and potential problems with their doctor. The choices and issues are discussed in detail this week on Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today on webtalkradio.net, when show host, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka talks once again with board certified plastic surgeon Dr Michelle Copeland from her 5th Avenue, New York city practice.
