Profound Builds Elastin & Collagen for Smoother, Tighter Skin –
Within our skin, two proteins work together to provide us with smooth, elastic skin: collagen and elastin. Collagen is responsible for the skin’s structure; keeping it smooth and firm. Elastin, on the other hand, is responsible for elasticity. But as we grow older, our bodies’ levels of collagen and elastin decrease, leaving us with wrinkles, lines, and sagging, loose skin.
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to obtain tighter skin, regardless of a person’s age? At AMAE Med Spa in Troy, MI area, such a solution is now a reality!
In 2020 we have added the newly released Profound radiofrequency microneedling treatment. This remarkable procedure has been clinically proven to both stimulate the production of collagen and build elastin. With Profound RF microneedling, patients can expect tighter skin than they’ve had in many years.
In this article, board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali discusses why Profound RF microneedling is ideal for anyone wishing for youthful, smoother, tighter skin.
How Does Elastin Build Tighter Skin?
By coiling in a spring-like fashion within the connective tissues of the body, elastin is responsible for providing the body’s tissue with elasticity. Without elastin, organs such as the heart, lungs, skin, and many others would be incapable of maintaining their shape after being stretched or contracted.
By the time we reach our mid 20’s, our body’s elastin begins to break down and lose its ability to recoil. This is why we have tighter skin earlier in life than we do as we age. Generally, the body stops producing elastin by the time we finish puberty.
In order for the body to build new elastin required for tighter skin, the skin must first be subjected to just the right amount of damage. By breaking down old, worn out elastin, the skin’s healing processes trigger more elastin to be produced.
Heating the skin is an excellent way to produce the kind of “damage” needed to kickstart the healing process, which is precisely why Profound microneedling is performed with radiofrequency energy.
How Does Collagen Build Tighter Skin?
Of the many proteins contained within the body, collagen is the most plentiful. Responsible for holding together every single part of the body, collagen sometimes referred to as the glue of the human body.
But despite its critical roll in our anatomy, the body’s production of collagen begins to slow down significantly. Statistically speaking, by the time we reach 25, our bodies begin to break down more collagen than we produce. With collagen and elastin both significantly diminished by this point in our lives, it is no wonder Profound microneedling has become so popular among our Troy, MI area patients.
Certain steps may be taken, however, to avoid putting unnecessary strain on these crucial proteins. If you’re in your mid 20s and your aim is to have tighter skin than your peers for years to come, start by cutting two things out of your routine: smoking and sun exposure. Both tobacco smoke and ultraviolet like are highly degrative to both collagen and elastin, and can cause skin to wrinkle and sag from an early age.
But for anyone in the Troy, MI area area who is interested in restoring their skin’s collagen and elastin levels, we offer a groundbreaking solution in Profound RF microneedling. With Profound, patients are afforded tighter skin with the smooth, youthful complexion that only radiofrequency energy can achieve.
How Profound Builds Collagen & Elastin for Tighter Skin
By carefully applying RF-generated heat energy to the elastin and collagen of the skin, Profound stimulates the creation of the proteins required for tighter skin.
Board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali performs the Profound treatment by inserting microneedle electrodes into the fat’s subcutaneous layer, distributing RF energy and triggering the natural healing process required to produce elastin and collagen.
Additionally, Profound microneedling also stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid, another substance produced by the body to yield smoother, tighter skin.

12 Symptoms of “Low T” & What You Can do About It (Part 1)
/in Hormone Replacement /by admin12 Symptoms of Low T (testosterone) and What You Can do About It (Part 1) –
The male hormone called testosterone affects everything from a man’s sexual development to his physical appearance. Testosterone aids in the building of muscles and bone mass, and is also – perhaps most famously – responsible for a man’s sex drive and production of sperm.
As men age, their body begins to produce less and less testosterone. Commonly known as “Low T,” low testosterone is estimated by the American Urological Association to impact roughly 2 out of every 10 men above the age of 60. And by the time men reach their 70s and 80s, those numbers only continue to increase.
Fortunately, Dr. Ali in Birmingham, MI, now offers the latest and most advanced, 100% natural, clinically tested and FDA approved “Low T” (testosterone) treatment. In this two part article, we discuss 12 of the most common signs and symptoms of Low T – as well as the low testosterone treatment we provide to help men treat this condition.
10 SYMPTOMS OF LOW T
Low T can lower your sex drive
A man’s sex drive is determined largely by his testosterone levels. Consequently, many men experience a diminished sex drive as they get older. If you suffer from Low T and have experienced a dramatic decrease in your desire to have sex, you will most likely benefit from the low testosterone treatment offered at our Birmingham, MI medical spa.
Low T causes difficulty with erections
Not only is a man’s libido stimulated by testosterone, it is also crucial to his ability to achieve and maintain an erection. While testosterone isn’t solely responsible for achieving an erection, it does play a vital role in stimulating the brain’s receptors necessary to do so.
While low testosterone treatment can help patients with Low T erectile issues, there are numerous medical reasons why one may experience erectile dysfunction. As such, it is important to see a doctor and not try to treat yourself if you have ED. Dr. Ali will take a blood test to measure your testosterone levels to make sure this is the cause of your erectile problems.
Low T can lower semen volume
Similarly, the body’s production of semen is impacted by its levels of testosterone.
If you have noticed a lower-than-usual volume of semen during ejaculations, you may very well benefit from low testosterone treatment, available at our medical spa in Birmingham, MI.
Low T can lead to hair loss
Hair production is among the numerous body functions testosterone effects. While most men will experience some form of balding as they age, men with Low T often experience loss of facial and body hair as well. At AMAE in Birmingham, MI, our low testosterone treatment is an excellent way to catch testosterone-related hair loss before it worsens.
Low T is known to cause fatigue
If you experience feelings of extreme fatigue despite getting regular sleep, you may benefit from low testosterone treatment. Low T is known to significantly decrease the energy levels of those effected.
Low T can cause loss of muscle mass
Low T patients may also notice a decrease to their body’s muscle mass. While testosterone is not responsible for the strength or function of one’s muscles, studies have proven it to impact their mass.

Dr. Ali in Birmingham, MI, now offers the latest and most advanced, 100% natural, clinically tested and FDA approved Low Testosterone treatment.
In this two part article, we discuss 12 of the most common signs and symptoms of “Low T” – as well as the low testosterone treatment we provide to help men treat this condition.
CLICK HERE for PART 1 of This Article
Increased body fat from Low Testosterone
When men visit our Birmingham, MI medical spa for low testosterone treatment, one of their most common concerns is unwanted weight gain. This can include gynecomastia (enlarged breast tissue), and is believed to result from a testosterone-to-estrogen ratio that is out of balance.
Decreased bone mass from Low Testosterone
While the thinning of bone mass known as osteoporosis is most often associated with women, bone loss is also known to affect men with Low T. Since testosterone is responsible in part for producing and strengthening bones, men with Low T – particularly older men – often have lower bone volume.
If your battle with Low T has left you more susceptible to bone fractures, visit AMAE Med Spa in Birmingham, MI for low testosterone treatment.
Low Testosterone can cause mood changes
At AMAE in Birmingham, MI, our patients with Low T regularly report experiencing mood swings. This is a product of testosterone impact on one’s mood and overall mental capacity. According to clinical research, men with Low T are more likely to experience difficulty focusing, irritability, and depression. Fortunately, our state-of-the-art low testosterone treatment should aid in patients feeling more “normal” – both physically and mentally/emotionally.
Low Testosterone can affect memory
Along with testosterone levels, cognitive functions like memory tend to decline as a man ages. For this reason, doctors hypothesize a link between Low T and affected memory.
The Journal of the American Medical Association has published the findings of a number of studies that link low testosterone treatment with improved memory.
While experts do not agree on a conclusive connection between Low T and memory loss, a great many of the low testosterone treatment patients at our Birmingham, MI medical spa report experiencing issues with memory.
Low Testosterone can decrease testicle size
At our Birmingham, MI area medical spa, many of our low testosterone treatment patients report having smaller-than-average sized testicles. This is due to the penis and testicles requiring testosterone to develop. Consequently, Low T often causes patients to have disproportionately small genitalia when compared to men with healthy levels of testosterone.
Nonetheless, numerous other factors may be responsible for testicles that are below-average in size, not just Low T. Again, that’s why you should see a doctor for symptoms of Low T and not try to self-medicate
Low blood counts from Low Testosterone
If you’re seeking out a low testosterone treatment, you may also experience an increased risk of anemia. While Low T has more than its fair share of unpleasant symptoms, anemia can bring about even more. Dizziness, increased heart rate, leg cramping, and difficulty sleeping and/or concentrating are among common symptoms of anemia.
According to research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, men who suffer both from Low T and from anemia experienced improvements to both conditions after receiving low testosterone treatment.
The Natural & Convenient Way to Treat Low Testosterone
Decreases in a man’s testosterone levels will occur incrementally over time, unlike women, who experience dramatic drops to their hormone levels during menopause. Below-normal testosterone levels are most likely to be found in older men. But regardless of age, anyone in the Birmingham, MI area suffering from Low T is invited to visit Dr. Ali, for the most effective, convenient and consistent FDA approved low testosterone treatment.
The BioTe hormone replacement therapy treatment (BHRT) is capable of restoring the body’s testosterone to ideal levels. The BHRT low testosterone treatment begins to correct Low T within 10 days of treatment, providing results that can last up to 6 months in male patients.

Breast Implants – Why Some Women Go Smaller
/in Breast Implant /by adminBreast Implants: Why Some Women Go Smaller –
Like many other cosmetic surgeries, breast implants are the subject of countless unfair and inaccurate stereotypes. In the media the phrase “breast implants” is often associated with oversized breasts that are as obviously fake as they are disproportionate. And while the trends of decades prior may have cemented this image in the cultural consciousness, too-large breasts now represent very small percentage of actual breast implant patients.
In fact, in the modern era, women tend to prefer a much more subtle end-result than what is commonly associated with breast implants. Smaller, natural-looking breast implants are an excellent way for a woman to feel more satisfied with her physique without looking like out of proportion or exaggerated. In fact, a number of women have visited our Detroit area practice to “trade in” their older, larger-than-life breast implants for something smaller and subtler.
Breast implants weren’t just invented to provide the largest breasts possible; they were invented to provide women of all sizes and body types with a sense of confidence and comfort in their own skin. And today, for more women than ever, all that takes are breast implants in the B or C cup range.
In this article, we’ll explain why many contemporary women tend to opt for smaller breast implants, and how the team at AMAE Plastic Surgery can provide women from all over the greater Detroit area with precisely the cosmetic results they’re looking for.
Many Reasons for Getting Breast Implants
Breast implants can serve a great many more purposes than most people ever stop to consider. In addition to simply increasing one’s cup size, breast implants can be used to correct breasts that are asymmetrical or deflated in appearance. Breast implants are also a great way to return one’s chest to its pre-pregnancy shape and size, which for many women means something subtle.
At AMAE Plastic Surgery, we proudly serve the Detroit area as the preeminent provider of medical aesthetics. We value our patients’ health and safety above all else, and understand that breast implants – along with every service we offer – means much more to a person than just a cosmetic procedure.
Benefits of Smaller Breast Implants
We aim to perfectly facilitate the exact results our patients hope for, and for many women, that means smaller breast implants. Smaller breast implants come along with a litany of benefits, not just for women with smaller or thinner frames. Smaller breast implants tend to look more natural, and result in a much less substantial change to the patient’s appearance.
Smaller breast implants also subject the tissue of the breast and the surrounding area to less trauma than occurs in larger breast implants. Smaller breast implants also face a much lower risk of nerve damage than their larger counterparts. Furthermore, smaller breast implants mean a shorter, more comfortable recovery period!
Other Advantages of Smaller Breast Implants
Today’s breast implants and breast augmentation surgeries – whether you go big or small – are very safe when performed by an experienced board certified Detroit area plastic surgeon like Dr. Ali. But patients may enjoy some added benefits of choosing smaller breast implants – making a “mini boob job” the more “comfortable” choice.
Unlike larger, heavier breast implants, smaller breast implants face much less potential for sagging over time. With smaller breast implants, gravity is on your side for years to come!
Breast implants that are too large can also sometimes result in diminished sensitivity, including the nipple being prone to loss of sensation. Smaller breast implants, on the other hand, face much less risk. And since smaller breast implants place far less strain on the skin, there is less chance of the implant becoming visible beneath the skin, after years of wear.
Larger breast implants can also interfere with athletics and physical activity such as exercise – and can sometimes be a source of unwanted, disrespectful attention. So some women choose smaller breast implants, to continue enjoying their regular athletic routine without additional physical or emotional stress.
Breast Implants – Detroit Area
At AMAE Plastic Surgery in the Detroit area, we are acutely aware that everyone’s bodies have their own unique needs – and everyone’s aesthetic preferences are different. This means that when it comes to breast implants, bigger is not always better for many women.
If you’re interested in accentuating your frame with breast implants that look as natural as they do flattering – whether you want to go big or go small – call us today for a consultation.

4 Ways to Get Thinner Thighs
/in CoolSculpting, Thigh Lift /by admin4 Ways to Get Thinner Thighs –
Of all areas of the body, the thighs are among the most difficult from which to lose fat. And while lifestyle adjustments like dieting and exercising are important to losing weight, they can only do so much to thin thighs. While we can control (to some extent) how much weight we lose, we have absolutely no control over where weight loss occurs on our body. And, arguably, no area is more diet-and-exercise-resistant than the thighs – something that leads many on the search for some kind of medical thigh reduction solution.
For such individuals, at AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa in Troy, MI area, we offer four cutting-edge non-surgical and surgical thigh reduction and toning procedures. In this article, we’ll discuss how despite being such an infamous “problem area,” thinner thighs can now be a reality for anyone.
Liposuction for Thinner Thighs
Out of every thigh reduction option available to our patients, liposuction is perhaps the most popular. By gently removing excess fat from the thigh area, liposuction is a safe and effective means of attaining thinner thighs. Less invasive than thigh lift surgery, thigh reduction liposuction also has a shorter recovery time.
Through the use of tiny tubes called micro-cannulas, board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon gently dislodges fat from the treatment area. The micro-cannulas then suck the fat from the thigh, resulting in thinner thighs than ever before.
Usually, this particular thigh reduction procedure requires only light anesthesia. Liposuction patients are afforded thinner thighs with only a few days of downtime – far less than with thigh lift surgery.
CoolSculpting for Thinner Thighs
CoolSculpting for thigh reduction is a completely non-invasive, non-surgical method of obtaining thinner thighs. Unlike liposuction, which simply removes unwanted fat via suction, CoolSculpting instead physically freezes the fat cells of the treatment area. In the weeks that follow, these unwanted fat cells will die, collapse, and be naturally eliminated from the body. While highly effective at getting rid of fat, CoolSculpting does not result in the body contouring produced by liposuction.
And, while CoolSculpting is a safe and effective way to get thinner thighs, patients should not expect immediate results. In most cases, it takes a few weeks for full thigh reduction results to become visible. Furthermore, while liposuction can provide thigh reduction with just one trip to our Troy, MI area practice, CoolSculpting delivers peak results only through a series of treatments.
Profound for Tighter, Toned Thighs
When performed on its own – or in combination with fat loss from liposuction or CoolSculpting –amazing new Profound radiofrequency skin tightening can help patients achieve firm toned thighs!
This revolutionary thigh reduction procedure is as effective as it is groundbreaking. Using radiofrequency energy, Profound RF skin tightening is able to deliver incredible, toned results completely non-surgically. With results that last, patients can say goodbye to sagging, lax, or loose thigh skin.
Thigh Lift Surgery for Thinner Thighs
Unlike the other less invasive thigh reduction procedures, thigh lift surgery is a more invasive, but extremely effective, way to get thinner thighs. Many of our Troy, MI area patients visit us for thigh lift surgery as a way to get rid of stubborn fat, but the procedure is equally effective at removing and tightening significantly loose or excess skin.
During thigh lift surgery an incision is made under anesthetic, and Dr. Ali removes fat and surgically reshapes and tightens the tissue. He will also remove excess outer skin and redrape it to offer a smooth, proportionate looking contour.
Deep support sutures will be placed in the underlying tissues to ensure that the new shape of the thinner thigh area remains in place. Then, Dr. Ali will close the skin incisions with sutures. Dr. Ali will take great care to make incisions in areas that will be masked by most clothing and bathing suits.
Thinner Thigh Procedures – Troy, MI area
Whether you’re looking to get rid of stubborn fat or to simply tighten the skin of your thighs, we have the solution you need. The thigh reduction experts at our Troy, MI area practice are just a call away, waiting to help you get the thinner thighs you’ve been dreaming of.
Contact AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa today, and schedule a consultation – it’s the first step on your journey to your ideal physique.

Profound: the New Non-Surgical Butt Lift
/in Brazilian butt lift, Front Page Posts, Skin Tightening /by adminProfound: The New Non-Surgical Butt Lift
Profound Radiofrequency Microneedling is a new, advanced procedure that is capable not only of tightening the patient’s skin, but can also dramatically increase volume, plumpness, and elasticity in the treatment area. For these reasons, when applied to the face, Profound Radiofrequency Microneedling is occasionally referred to as the non-surgical facelift. At AMAE Med Spa in Birmingham, MI, when used to tone and tighten the buttocks, the procedure is sometimes referred to as a “non-surgical butt lift”.
In this article, board certified Birmingham, MI plastic surgeon Dr. Ali discusses the many benefits of the Profound Butt Lift, providing prospective patients with everything they need to know about this remarkable new procedure.
How Profound Non-Surgical Butt Lift Works
The incredible, non-surgical results of the Profound Butt Lift are achieved through the use of cutting-edge radiofrequency technology. Using a specialized method of microneedling, the Profound delivers radiofrequency energy to the deepest dermal layers of the treatment area. The Profound Butt Lift is capable of directing radiofrequency energy directly to specifically targeted layers of skin, enabling Dr. LAi to firm, tighten, lift and contour the buttocks,
The clinical grade needles used to penetrate the skin of the treatment area are of an extremely fine width, which allow for the radiofrequency energy to reach deep within the dermis. This thermal energy triggers what is known as the “thermocollagenesis” effect, wherein the natural healing processes of the skin stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. As the skin cells are regenerated, patients experience tighter more youthful skin – and plumper more shapely and voluminous curves.
Profound Non-Surgical Butt Lift Results
Profound butt lift patients can typically expect to see visible results from their procedure as rapidly as four to six weeks after treatment. And over the course of the following three to six months, the dramatic, long-lasting results of the Profound butt lift only continue to improve.
At AMAE Plastic surgery & Med Spa, we take great pride in offering personalized care that meets the needs of everyone in the lively and diverse Birmingham, MI community. Unlike many older laser treatments, Profound Radiofrequency Microneedling treatments- including the Profound Butt Lift – can be safely performed on patients of any and all skin colors and tones.
Despite only taking about an hour or so to administer, the Profound butt lift provides an impressive roster of benefits. With minimal to no side effects, the Profound butt lift can:
Profound Non-Surgical Butt Lift Reduces Cellulite
In addition to toning, lifting and tightening the buttocks, Profound also reduces the appearance of cellulite.
The unsightly, rippled appearance of cellulite is known to develop on bodies of all shapes and sizes. In fact, the amount of fat a person has does not determine whether or a person will get cellulite at all. Instead, it is the result of the specific way one’s body holds certain fat deposits. Fortunately for anyone in Birmingham, MI with concerns about cellulite on their backside, the Profound butt lift can provide relief.
The dermis and the muscle are connected to one another via fibrous cords of tissue called septae. The septae forms a vertical pattern with small pockets of adipose (fat) tissue filling up the uneven sections between them. When the fat cells are pushed towards the surface of the skin, the dreaded lumpiness of cellulite becomes visible. But through the Profound butt lift, saying goodbye to cellulite is as simple as booking at appointment at our Birmingham, MI medical spa.
Profound Non-Surgical Butt Lift – Birmingham, MI
At AMAE Med Spa in Birmingham, MI, we offer Profound skin tightening treatment as a non-surgical way to achieve many of the same benefits of traditional butt lift surgery – without the pain, expense or downtime. Get a lifted, tighter toned butt – and get rid of cellulite – with a Profound butt lift. Call today for more information.

Should I Get A Breast Lift or Breast Augmentation?
/in Breast Augmentation, Breast Lift /by adminShould I Get A Breast Lift or Breast Augmentation?
At AMAE Plastic Surgery in Troy, MI area, many patients come to us asking whether their cosmetic goals will be better achieved with breast augmentation surgery or with breast lift surgery. Since both procedures can result in a youthful, confidence-boosting silhouette, it can seem a little tricky choosing the right one. Both surgeries come with their own unique benefits, and some women even ultimately wind up deciding to get both procedures.
In this article, we’ll take a look at some crucial deciding factors in choosing between a breast lift, breast augmentation, or both!
Differences between Breast Lift & Breast Augmentation
When considering a breast lift versus breast augmentation, one must first understand what makes the two procedures unique. To put it quite simply, breast lift surgery is performed to change the position and shape of the patient’s existing breast tissue, while breast augmentation is performed to increase the patient’s breast size. For this reason, at our Troy, MI area practice, we often perform both procedures on the same patient.
Breast Lift Surgery
Breast lift surgery is performed by making an incision in each breast, after which the skin and tissue of the treatment area is carefully lifted. This results in a tighter, firmer breast shape, which is retained by closing and tightening the incision. Unlike breast augmentation, nothing is implanted within the breast itself.
Breast lift patients can expect their breasts to feel firmer, accentuated by the perky “lifted” appearance from which the procedure gets its name. Breast lift surgery can correct the appearance of downward-pointing nipples, as well as restore the appearance of fullness, and correct the shape or position (height) of the existing breast tissue.
Since a breast lift does not increase or decrease the volume of the breast, patients may chose to have a breast augmentation or reduction performed in conjunction with their breast lift. Board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali has years of experience performing both procedures. When performed simultaneously, Dr. Ali is capable of delivering results of both breast lift and breast augmentation surgery that compliment one another in perfect harmony.
Breast Augmentation Surgery
Breast augmentation patients can expect their procedure to result in larger, fuller breasts. At AMAE Plastic Surgery in Troy, MI area, we are capable of providing the exact increase in volume our breast augmentation patients desire. From the subtlest increase to something significantly more substantial, Dr. Ali and his expert team will not rest until the patient’s goals are met.
Unlike breast lift surgery, breast augmentation achieves its increased volume by making small incisions in the breasts, through which a saline or silicone implant is inserted. At our Troy, MI area practice, the implants we offer – made with either silicone or saline – have been approved by the FDA, and are both equally safe and effective.
Good Breast Lift Candidates
Breast lift surgery is an excellent option for sagging breasts and lax breast skin that is causing the breasts to hang low or point downward. During the breast lift procedure, board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali removes excess skin from each breast, allowing him to lift the tissue and form a firmer, tighter shape. Breast lift surgery is also a popular choice among women who have undergone significant weight loss and have loose, lax or sagging skin as a result.
Good Candidates for Breast Augmentation
No matter how subtle or dramatic the increase, with breast augmentation, the size and shape of one’s bust can be adjusted to meet the exact and specific wants and needs of the patient. During your consultation with board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali, you will be aided in determining exactly what type, shape and size of breast implant is right for you.
