Recalled French Breast Implants
The French Government has recalled all PIP breast implants. These were only made in France and used in the European Union and some in South America. They were made with “industrial grade” silicone, not “medical grade” silicone. That means they are contaminated with things that were never meant to be placed inside the body. All of thse implants should be removed and replaced with safe implants.
I have already spoken to women who have had these placed in other countries and we are arranging replacements here in Columbus, Ohio. We are inquiring into the possibility of receiving compensation from the French Government for these women to help with the cost. I would be happy to make inquiries on your behalf.
To set up a free consultation to discuss your implants and whether or not they are the recalled type, please call us at (614) 326-4661. Thank you
Sincerely,
Steven Robinson, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Body Contouring After Weight Loss
Body contouring after major weight loss reduces the excess skin and fat that is left behind from the expansion of skin, loss of fat and lack of tissue elasticity that often occurs after a major weight loss. This sagging skin commonly develops around the face, neck, upper arms, breast, abdomen, buttocks, and thighs and can make your body contour appear irregular and misshapen. If you have undergone dramatic weight loss either through diet and exercise or bariatric surgery, and you are at your optimum weight loss goal, you may be a good candidate for this surgery and may wish to consider undergoing this procedure.
The success of body contouring, whether it is done to reduce, enlarge or lift, is influenced by your age and by the size, shape and skin tone of the area to be treated. Some contouring procedures leave only small, inconspicuous scars. More noticeable scars may result when surgical removal of fat and skin is necessary to achieve your desired result. Most patients find these scars acceptable and enjoy greater self-confidence when wearing a bathing suit or form-fitting clothes.

Liposuction – Still The Most Popular Plastic Surgery Procedure
For many years liposuction has been the most frequently performed Plastic Surgery procedure on both men and women. This year is no different. Liposcution is popular for several reasons. Today, there is little recovery time required with the more modern techniques. My patients are back to work and normal activities in a matter of days. There are also no large incisions or scars for this procedure. The newer liposuction tools are very small in diameter and only small nicks in the skin are necessary.
To see if liposction is right for you, call today for a complimentary consultation in our office, located at 4661 Sawmill Rd., Columbus. Our telephone number is (614) 326-4661. At the time of the consultation we will talk about your goals, examine the problem areas, look at before/after pictures, and discuss all options.

Make Sure You Are Seeing A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
Recently we have seen many non-plastic surgeon physician offer Plasticsurgery procedures to their patients. Many time people do not know that the doctor they are seeing is not a trained, certified Plastic Surgeon. Do not take chances with the education of your surgeon. Make sure he/she is board certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery. This is the only organization that can certify Plastic Surgeons in the United States. Other “credentials” are not the same. If you have questions as to the board status or training of a physician you are seeing, check for yourself at www.plasticsurgery.org or call us at (614) 326-4661.
Which Breast Implants Are Best?
I am often asked by patients which breast implants are the best – Silicone gel or saline? My answer is that they are different products and each has its own advantages. The saline breast implants are adjustable implants, so if you are uneven, I can make you more symmetric as well as larger with these. The silicone gel implants usually feel softer and in most people look more “natural”.
At the time of the consultation we discuss these issues and many more. We will also go over breast augmentation before/after pictures, talk about recovery after breast surgery, and cost of breast augmentation. To set up your consultation please call us at (614) 326-4661.
Am I Ready For An Eye Lift?
The eye lift procedure can be done for the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. It is designed to remove excess skin and fatty material that make your lids look heavy or puffy. This procedure will not change the shape of your eyes or give you a “pulled” look. The results are very natural and afterwards you look more alert, less tired, and younger!
The recovery time is fast with the eyelift. Most people are back to work in a week if your job does not require hard physical activity. The small incisions heal quickly and once healed, do not even require make-up to conceal. For more information on this great procedure please call us at (614) 326-4661.
MINI-TUMMY TUCK IS SOMETIMES JUST THE RIGHT SIZE
The mini- tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is sometimes all that is needed to tighten up the area under your belly button after childbirth or weightloss. This procedures has a shorter incision and requires less recovery time. Most people are back to work and doing normal daily activities in under two weeks.
To see if this is right for you, or if you may need a full abdominoplasy, call us to set up a complimentary consultation today .We are conveniently located at 4661 Sawmill Rd., Columbus and our number is (614) 326-4661.
