The Perfect Mothers Day Gift: Cosmetic Surgery Gift Certificates

4 Cosmetic Surgery Mothers Days Gifts for Mom
Mother’s Day is Sunday May 9th!

Mom does so much for everybody! But coming up with a gift that will surprise, delight and show her how much she means can be a daunting task! So we’ve got some suggestions for the perfect Mother’s Day gift that keeps on giving all year round! And with a Cosmetic Surgery Gift Card there’s no size or color to pick, and no need to have to go to a store or the mall!

You can give any one of the Mother’s Day gifts on this list with a Cosmetic Surgery Gift Certificate from our prestigious Detroit area plastic surgery office – and know that your Mom or wife will be completely thrilled, because she can choose the aesthetic procedures she wants!

Give Her the Body She’s Always Wanted with Cosmetic Surgery

What if you could give Mom the body she’s always wanted this Mother’s Day? And we are definitely NOT talking about a new piece of exercise equipment (like the infamous Peloton commercial)! We offer several body enhancement and fat loss treatments at our Detroit area cosmetic surgery office.

1. Give Mom Coolsculpting for Mother’s Day

Does Mom complain about her mid-section, her love handles, or maybe her thighs or hips? No matter what her “problem areas” Coolsculpting offers non-surgical fat loss – with no downtime!

CoolSculpting is a completely non-invasive, non-surgical fat-removal procedure. A handheld applicator applies cold temperatures to the unwanted fat. This applicator “freezes” or “crystalizes” the fat cells, and the body then naturally eliminates them. CoolSculpting can remove fat and inches from the waist, abs, thighs, hips, “love handles” – and almost anywhere else on the body, even a “double chin”.

A gift certificate for CoolSculpting is something almost any woman would love, to get rid of the stubborn fat pockets she hates.

2. Give Her Liposuction for Mother’s Day

Another fat loss procedure she would love to get (instead of another bouquet of roses) is tumescent liposuction. We can remove fat from almost any area of the body, including the face, neck, chin, belly, hips, buttocks, thighs, back, arms, calves, ankles and even knees.

Liposuction is ideal for stubborn pockets of fat almost anywhere on the body that simply do not respond to exercise or dieting. Usually this type of fat is hereditary to some degree, and the only way to permanently remove it is with liposuction.

While this minimally invasive surgical procedure requires local anesthetic, the results are almost immediate. So she can get the liposuction in January and be bikini-ready for a February beach getaway.

Can’t decide between liposuction and CoolSculpting? No problem! A gift certificate from our Detroit area cosmetic surgery office enables Mom to choose the procedure SHE wants.

3. Give Her a Breast Augmentation for Valentine’s Day

If you really want to GO BIG for Mother’s Day (and SHE does too), then consider a Gift Certificate for breast augmentation at our Detroit area Medical Office and Med Spa.

We know you love Mom just the way she is! But perhaps your wife or mother has always been a bit self conscious about the size, shape or placement of her breasts. Breast enhancement surgery can give her the bustline she’s always wanted.

After the toll that pregnancy, nursing, weight fluctuations and all that maternal worry has taken on Mom, a gift certificate for breast implants can get her started on a journey to loving the way she looks.

4. Give Your Wife Better Sex with Vaginal Rejuvenation

Perhaps your kids are grown – and now it’s time for you and your wife to enjoy some intimate “me time.” Give the mother of your kids (AND yourself) the gift of better sex and improved intimacy this Mother’s Day with a gift certificate for vaginal rejuvenation.

Sadly, childbirth, aging and post-menopausal hormone decrease all take their toll on a woman’s vagina. The vaginal lining can become looser, lax (lacking in tone), dry, and less sensitive. This results in painful sex for the woman and less sensation and less satisfaction for both partners.

But the fantastic news is that a one-time, non-surgical vaginal treatment can “turn back the clock” on female intimacy problems. Radiofrequency “vaginal rejuvenation” restore tightness, elasticity, lubrication and sensation to the vagina – in just one treatment, without surgery and without hormones!

Wouldn’t she (and you) like to get better sex for Mother’s Day?

Detroit Area Cosmetic Surgery Gift Certificates

Many women hesitate to spend money on themselves. So a gift certificate lets her focus on HERSELF for a change. After opening her Cosmetic Surgery gift certificate, she can schedule a consultation at our Detroit area Med Spa in Birmingham to discuss the procedures she wants. We will help her decide what treatments are right to achieve her appearance goals, and she’ll be thanking you now and for years to come.

This year give her the gift that keeps on giving with a cosmetic surgery gift certificate for services from renowned Detroit area cosmetic surgeon Dr. Ali.

Female Hormone Replacement FAQs

/in /by

Female Hormone Replacement
Frequently Asked Questions – 

When we are feeling good and going about our normal activities, we don’t stop consider that our hormones are “in balance” and performing as they should. And when we experience low energy, loss of interest in sex, hair loss, fatigue and other symptoms of being unwell, we also don’t stop to think that a female hormone imbalance may be to blame.

But the reality is that hormones govern almost every aspect of a woman’s health. And when hormones are out of balance, a wide variety of health problems may manifest themselves.

The good news is that recent advancements in the field of women’s hormone replacement therapy, enable us to  restore the female hormone balance with long-lasting, subdermal hormone pellets available at AMAE Plastic Surgery in the Troy, MI area.

What Causes Female Hormone Imbalance?

A wide variety of factors that can cause an imbalance in a woman’s hormones. The most common are  perimenopause, menopause, and post menopause hormonal decline. However, women who have undergone a hysterectomy, or who suffer from thyroid conditions, may also suffer hormone decline.

Hereditary factors, stress, environmental influences and other medical conditions cam also cause a woman’s hormones to be out of balance.

What are the Symptoms of Female Hormone Imbalance?

The side effects and symptoms of female hormone imbalance are many and varied.

Physical symptoms of female hormone imbalance may include:

  • Thinning hair
  • Skin pigmentation or dark spots
  • Weight gain
  • Hot flashes and/or night sweats
  • Acne
  • Hair growth on the arms or face
  • Low of energy
  • Vaginal pain or dryness,
  • Loss of interest in sex
  • Pain during intercourse
  • Unstable blood sugar
  • Low blood pressure
  • Thinning or dry skin
  • Ovarian cysts, infertility, miscarriages

Symptoms of female hormone imbalance may also be mental or emotional and can include: lack of mental clarity (“fogginess”), low libido, anxiety, and depression.

What is the Best Way to Treat Female Hormone Imbalance?

At AMAE Plastic Surgery in the Troy, MI area we offer a breakthrough method of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) in the form of under-the-skin pellets that last several months. This incredible new hormone replacement treatment is customized for each patient and takes only minutes to complete.

Each woman’s blood is analyzed to identify her unique and individual hormone levels and imbalances. Then Dr. Ali inserts a customized hormone replacement pellet – smaller than a grain of rice – beneath the skin.

After about a week to 10 days, patients will start to experience relief from the unpleasant symptoms of their female hormone imbalance.

Why are Female Hormone Replacement Pellets Better?

Unlike other forms of women’s hormone replacement therapy, after the BioTe pellet has been inserted, patients do not have to anything else for up to 5 month. The time-released pellets keep the hormone levels steady and consistent.

BHRT pills require that patients remember to take daily medication every single day. And, hormone therapy creams or gels are messy and wear off in hours. But BioTe pellets keep working around the clock – with no pills to remember and no mess.

Additionally, BioTe female hormone replacement pellets are 100% natural “bioidentical” hormones – and not synthetic like some other forms of hormone replacement therapy. In clinical studies bioidentical hormones like BioTe peletts were shown to be more effective than synthetic hormones. Additionally, researchers noted that taking synthetic forms of certain female hormones posed a greater risk of cancer, while bioidentical hormones reduced the risk of cancer.

Female Hormone Imbalance Treatment – Troy, MI Area

At AMAE Plastic Surgery  in the Troy, MI area, we want all women to feel their absolute best – regardless of age. Thanks to BioTe 100% natural women’s hormone replacement pellets, almost every woman can live life with energy, vitality and health.

Get Thinner Arms with CoolSculpting

/in /by

Get Thinner Arms with CoolSculpting – 

Unfortunately unsightly “arm fat” is an extremely common problem for women – that usually just doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. Unsightly arm fat can be influenced by hereditary, weight gain, and even hormone decline and aging. But whatever the cause, having fat arms can make you uncomfortable in tank tops or sleeveless dresses, and undermine your self-confidence when it comes to bearing your arms during warm weather.

The good news is that you CAN get rid of arm fat – painlessly and without surgery, diet or exercise, with CoolSculpting at AMAE in the Troy, MI area. In fact, CoolSculpting the #1 non-invasive procedure in the world for permanently reducing arm fat!

In this article renowned Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali answers patients’ frequently asked questions about CoolSculpting for arm fat.

Is CoolSculpting Safe for Getting Rid of Arm Fat?

CoolSculpting has been FDA approved to reduce fat on the abdomen, love handles, back, and inner and outer thighs since 2009.  Then, after almost a decade of use, CoolSculpting was FDA cleared as safe and effective for upper arm fat reduction in November of 2018.

And, because CoolSculpting is non-surgical and non-invasive, there is no pain, no incisions, no anesthetic, and no risk of infections or complications – making it one of the safest fat loss treatments available today.

Is CoolSculpting Effective for Getting Rid of Arm Fat?

CoolSculpting is clinically proven to reduce fat in the arms by approximately 25% with each treatment – helping countless women feel more confident in their clothes again.

The CoolSculpting treatment device now has a variety of different “applicators”.  These varying sizes and shapes are used to treat different areas of the body – with newer, smaller applicators being ideally contoured to reach and treat pockets of fat on the upper arms with ease.  Using these newer, smaller applicators, we can fully treat all upper arm fat all the way down to the elbow.

In fact, creating beautiful slender arms is one of our favorite and most popular uses of CoolSculpting, because the results are so life-changing for many women. Imagine finally being comfortable baring your arms in any type of bathing, lingerie, dress, or sleeveless top!

How Many CoolSculpting Treatments Are Needed For Arm Fat?

Some people only need a single CoolSculpting treatment on their arms to get the fat reduction they desire.  Others with a greater amount of arm fat to lose may need more than one treatment.

A single CoolSculpting treatment will typically reduce the fat layer thickness in the arms by 20-25% in just 3 months.  And, additional treatments will produce even more fat reduction in the upper arms.

Will CoolSculpting Tighten the Skin on My Arms?

CoolSculpting has some mild, but not dramatic skin tightening effects. It is best for patients with only mild to moderate skin laxity.  However, at AMAE in the Troy, MI area also offer state-of-the-art new Profound skin tightening that can be used in conjunction with CoolSculpting to tighten and tone loose, lax arm skin.

During your consultation in our Troy, MI area office with a certified CoolSculpting provider we will help you determine if CoolSculpting or CoolSculpting + Profound is right for you. Renowned Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali also offers arm lift surgery as an alternative for individuals with excessive degrees of loose or flabby arm skin.

How Profound Builds Smoother, Tighter Skin

/in /by

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.

Profound for Tighter Skin – Troy, MI area

If you’re ready to restore the collagen and elastin needed for tighter skin, look no further than AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa in Troy, MI area.

With Profound RF Skin Tightening, patients are able to turn back the clock and look healthier and more youthful than ever before. Contact us today for a consultation.

Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck Alternatives

/in /by

Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck Alternatives – 

Tummy tucks, while very effective, can sometimes be cost prohibitive for patients – and can subject the patient to significant downtime. But thanks to remarkable advancements of aesthetic technology, a wide range of treatment options now exist as non-surgical tummy tuck alternatives. And, fortunately for anyone in the Troy, MI area area, we offer the best tummy tuck alternatives at AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa.

If you are interested in an alternative to a tummy tuck that offers fat reduction and smoothing and tightening of the abdominal skin, we offer 3 non-invasive treatments that may be right for you: liposuction, CoolSculpting and amazing new Profound skin tightening. These can be used separately or together for a highly effective non-surgical tummy tuck alternative!

Liposuction as a Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck

Traditional tummy tuck surgery is almost always performed under general anesthetic. Liposuction, on the other hand, is a minimally invasive tummy tuck alternative that only requires local anesthetic. This eliminates the risks that come along with general anesthetic, one of the many benefits of this particular non-surgical tummy tuck alternative.

When performing liposuction, board certified Troy, MI area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali creates incisions that are so small – less than 3 mm in length – they can barely be noticed at all, and will gradually fade with time. Yet another reason to opt for this non-surgical tummy tuck!

The best liposuction candidates are either at or near their ideal, healthy weight, who wish to remove stubborn deposits of fat from specific areas. Additionally, this particular non-surgical tummy tuck treatment works best on patients with both good abdominal muscle tone and good skin elasticity.

CoolSculpting as a Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck

Another excellent non-surgical tummy tuck alternative, CoolSculpting is a noninvasive procedure during which unwanted fat cells are frozen and destroyed, to be eliminated from the body through natural processes.

At our Troy, MI area practice, we tend to recommend CoolSculpting to those who are close to their target weight, but are looking for a non-surgical tummy tuck alternative to get rid of stubborn “problem areas” of fat.

Like liposuction, CoolSculpting also works best for people who have both toned abdominal muscles and good skin elasticity.

Profound Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck

When performed on its own – or in combination with fat loss from liposuction or CoolSculpting – amazing new Profound radiofrequency skin tightening can give patients a firm, toned tummy!

At AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa, we offer this best-in-its-class non-surgical tummy tuck alternative. Thanks to its use of radio-frequency energy, Profound RF Skin Tightening can significantly reduce the appearance of loose, sagging or lax skin with results proven to last.

Good Candidates for Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck

All of these procedures are all ideal for both men and women of almost any age who wish to achieve a flatter abdomen. At AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa in Troy, MI area, we consider a number of factors when evaluating prospective patients for a non-surgical tummy tuck procedure.

For starters, patients should be non-smokers, who are in generally good health. Patients should also be no more than 20lbs above their target weight, and should not require muscle tightening as part of their non-surgical tummy tuck procedure. Furthermore, non-surgical tummy tuck candidates should not require extensive skin to be removed as part of their treatment.  Additionally, we remind our patients that if they have experienced separated abdominal muscles (a common occurrence after pregnancy), these procedures will not be capable of correcting this issue.

While Tummy Tuck surgery is the only way to actually remove loose skin and repair lax or torn abdominal muscles, liposuction, Coolsculpting and/or Profound can offer significant fat reduction and skin tightening in the abdominal area.

Non-Surgical Tummy Tuck Alternatives – Troy, MI area

At AMAE Plastic Surgery and Med Spa in Troy, MI area, our patients can choose from a number of surgical and non-surgical tummy tuck alternatives.

The best way to find out which procedure best suits your needs – be it a traditional tummy tuck or a less invasive, non-surgical tummy tuck alternative – is to schedule a consultation with us. Call today and find out which procedure is best for you.

Treating Painful Sex After Menopause (Part 2)

/in /by

Treating Painful Sex After Menopause (Part 2) – 

Not only a source of physical discomfort, painful sex after menopause can also cause great mental and emotional distress. For many Troy, MI area women, their anxiety and embarrassment caused by painful sex after menopause rivals the physical discomfort of their vaginal dryness.

But while the strain of painful sex after menopause can be both physically and mentally excruciating for women in the Troy, MI area, the condition is incredibly common. It is believed that 45% – 50% of all women experience long-term vaginal dryness after menopause, which itself is a cause of painful sex. But while menopause (as well as ovary removal surgery and certain cancer treatments) can result in side effects such as post-coital bleeding or sensations of burning or itching, such changes to a woman’s hormones no longer control her ability to enjoy a healthy sex life.

In Part 2 of this two-part article, we dive further into everything there is to know about painful sex after menopause, and discuss how we treat this frustrating condition at our Troy, MI area medical spa.

Viveve is capable of treating painful sex after menopause without any negative side effects, and requires no recovery period or downtime.

How Viveve Treats Painful Sex After Menopause

Should I Tell People I’ve Had Breast Implant Surgery?

/in /by

Should I Tell People I’ve Had Breast Implant Surgery?

There used to be a time when a breast augmentation was hidden and even lied about. But today people are becoming more and more open about breast implant surgery. The decision of whether you should “admit” to having had a “boob job” is a very personal  one – and entirely up to you.

For years, any plastic surgery had a negative stigma associated with it. But that’s not the case any longer. Statistics show that the number of Americans seeking out cosmetic procedures continues to increase by record numbers. In 2014 alone, Americans spent more than $12 billion on plastic surgery, according to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons.

More people are realizing that there shouldn’t be any shame or embarrassment associated with having work done. For years, people, especially those in Hollywood, tried to hide their visits to their plastic surgeon’s office. However, even celebrities no longer think it is necessary to convince people they were just “born beautiful”.

Adorable actresses Anna Faris (Mother; House Bunny), Kaley Cuoco (Big Bang Theory) and Naya Rivera (Glee) have all become outspoken advocates for the benefits of breast implants. See what these celebrities, and others, are saying HERE.

Why People Hide Breast Implant Surgery

Most people don’t realize that plastic surgery has been around for quite some time. In fact, ancient Egyptians are said to attempted surgical reshaping of the nose! The first recorded breast augmentation was actually performed in the late 1890s. By 1934 the first formal training program in the United States was established at Johns Hopkins. And movie stars were visiting the surgeon’s office as early as Hollywood’s golden age in the 1930s and 40s.

Perhaps because early plastic surgery techniques were not perfected like they are today, breast implants and other cosmetic surgery originally had a negative image. In the early days, breasts implants were often “overdone” – leaving the patient looking “artificial.” Today, that is no longer the case.

In 2014, Americans had a total of 15.6 million cosmetic procedures, both minimally-invasive and surgical. The demand for plastic surgery continues to grow as we see great strides in technology and techniquess. This creates more options for patients looking to improve themselves.

Being Open About Breast Implant Surgery

While breast implants and other procedures can make you look younger, trying to recapture one’s youth is not necessarily the reason for cosmetic surgery any more. When asked why they opted for surgery, many women state they have a desire to look more refreshed, and to look on the outside the way they feel on the inside.

Plastic surgery has advanced so much that we can accomplish beautiful and natural looking results, without it even really looking as if you’ve had work done!  Plastic surgeons can help people achieve a healthier, more refreshed look that will often leave people wondering if they had surgery, or if they’ve just been exercising, eating right and taking better care of themselves.

So it is perfectly possible to conceal the fact that you have had cosmetic or breast surgery, if you so desire.

Troy area double board certified plastic surgeon says: “I tell my patients all the time that plastic surgery should be done for one person and one person only – themselves.” He continues, “It is such a joy to watch someone become truly happy once again after a procedure. If you hate looking in the mirror every day, your life will begin to suffer. And there is simply no reason why that should be! Thankfully the stigma associated with plastic surgery is falling away.”

The people in your life who love you, care about you, and want you to be happy will have no reservations about your breast implants, when they see how happy they make you. While there will always be “nay sayers” (as well as some who will be jealous of how good you look), the people who matter will be happy because you are happy!

Best Troy MI Area Breast Implant Surgery

Women who choose to get breast implant surgery universally report that their new breasts help them feel more self-confident, feel better about their bodies, and give them a greater feeling of well-being!

Top rated Troy area board certified plastic surgeon Doctor Ali offers the same stunning breast enhancement results that the stars get in Beverly Hills. He has helped thousands of women in Southeast Michigan look and feel better with his skilled and beautiful breast implant surgery techniques.

Schedule a breast implant surgery consultation with Doctor Ali to learn about your options, and decide if breast enhancement surgery is right for you.

How Does the Breast Augmentation Simulator Work?

Mentor® enables you to see how breast augmentation would look on you with their online “Visualizer”. 

It is as simple as uploading a photo of yourself to begin. For best results, use a portrait sized photo of yourself, with the upper portion of the breasts visible in a bra or swimsuit.

  1. Upload the photo of you in a bikini or bra
  2. Drag the circles to the approximate location of the breast
  3. Fine-tune the size of the breasts by dragging the small arrows larger or smaller
  4. Set the Size and the Lift of the breast augmentation size you want to see with the slider
  5. Click “See The New You”
