Teens and Cosmetic Surgery: A Growing Trend?

September 10, 2015 by Davis

Yes, Kylie Jenner recently admitted to having injectable lip fillers. And according to recent headlines, she’s just one of thousands of teens turning to cosmetic surgery to enhance her appearance. Is this the beginning of a growing trend among teens? And more importantly, as a parent, should you be concerned?

In an interview with the Press of Atlantic City, Dr. Davis recently confirmed that the number of young people he sees for cosmetic treatments has grown during the 30 years he’s been in practice. However, when you look at the whole picture, to say that this is a “trend” isn’t really that accurate.

The Numbers

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, in 2014 patients between the ages of 13 and 19 made up less than 2% of all patients who had a cosmetic surgery procedure and less than 4% of those who had a minimally invasive procedure.

The reality is that there aren’t that many teens having cosmetic surgery, despite the media hype.

As Dr. Davis explained to the media source, he uses a risk-benefit ratio with each young patient to determine if he or she is an appropriate candidate for a specific treatment. A good risk-benefit ratio “would be fixing something with minimal scaring, recovery time or risk of anesthesia, and also knowing it would make a client feel better about themselves.” On the flip side are patients who want to look like a celebrity, or a parent who seems to be pushing their child into having a procedure. Neither of these situations indicate good candidates for treatment.

As part of the determination process, Dr. Davis has a minimum of two consultations with any patient in their early 20s or younger before scheduling a procedure. For patients under the age of 18, he requires parents to be present during consultation.

The Procedures

Of course, what we all want to know is, what is it that’s driving young people into the plastic surgeon’s office? Here’s what most teens had last year:

  • Male breast reduction (gynecomastia), ear surgery (otoplasty) and nose surgery (rhinoplasty) accounted for two-thirds of all surgical procedures.
  • Laser hair removal, laser skin resurfacing, leg vein treatment and microdermabrasion accounted for more than three-quarters of all non-surgical treatments.

Does Waist Training Work?

July 29, 2015 by Davis

Waist Training - Plastic Surgery Blog Cherry HillKim Kardashian has done it. Jessica Alba too. But can you really credit a corset for “training” your curves into all the right places? The short answer is no. In fact, squeezing things too tightly for too long could actually put you at risk for serious health concerns.

Referred to as “waist training,” this body shaping trend is really not much different than shrink wrapping your Spanx on so that it’s super tight. By strapping on a rigid corset or fabric wrap, you can instantly slim your silhouette and reshape those curves, so that your waist is teeny-tiny and your belly and love handles have a smooth contour. The idea that it can help you to lose fat or reshape your anatomy permanently, however? It’s a myth. Take that corset off and your body will go back to looking exactly as it did before you started wearing it no matter how long it’s been on.

And herein lies the problem.

While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with wearing a form-fitting corset for the evening to fine tune your curves, wearing it for days, weeks or even months, as celebrities claim to do, can cause health problems that range from acid reflux to bone bruising. Too-tight garments can also leave you with an oxygen shortage and decrease blood flow to the heart.

So what’s the answer for a girl looking for a real solution to permanently reshaping her contours? Take our advice: If you’re looking to eliminate love handles, slim your waist, or banish bra fat, there are safe, effective and permanent solutions, including liposuction and CoolScultping, that can deliver the results you’re looking for. When you’re ready, call us to schedule your consultation with Dr. Davis: 856.424.1700

Botox is Good For Your Skin

June 17, 2015 by Davis

If you’re a Botox user, you know all about the skin-smoothing benefits Botox and other neurotoxins have to offer. But we’re willing to bet you didn’t know that Botox does more — it actually improves the quality of your skin at a biomechanical level.

That’s according to recent medical research that shows that Botox literally improves the health of your skin. By “health,” we’re talking about the elasticity and pliability of your skin.

Two Canadian researchers studied the effect of Botox on 48 women for forehead wrinkles and crow’s feet. Beyond the obvious wrinkle-smoothing results we’ve come to expect, they found that there were actual changes that took place in the skin that was treated with Botox — biomechanical changes that mimic those of younger skin! While they’re not certain how or why Botox has this broader skin health benefit, they do know the benefits last about as long as the neurotoxin itself.

Botox for wrinkles and better skin? Seems like a win-win to us! Call today to schedule your next treatment: 856.424.1700

Tips for Plumper Lips

May 6, 2015 by Davis

Dr. Davis was just featured in an article in the South Jersey Times in response to the recent so-called Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge, to create plumper lips by sucking the air out of a glass cylinder. The results? Not so pretty. If you’re one of millions looking for plumper lips, this is the advice Dr. Davis offered to reporter Kelly Roncace on a safer way to achieve results.

For starters, Dr. Davis explained to the South Jersey Times that simply putting a round glass over your mouth could possibly result in permanent damage. “It could break, or already be chipped, which could be a disaster before you even start sucking the air out,” he told the news source. “If you get cut and have to have stitches, you will have a permanent scar around your mouth.”

More likely, however, you could cause blood clotting and a discolored ring around the mouth, which may or may not go away.

“Now, for the rest of their life, they will have a ring around their lips where the shot glass was,” Dr. Davis told the South Jersey Times.

Pretty lips? We don’t think so. Not this way, anyway. So what can young people do to achieve the look they want? Dr. Davis suggests starting with cosmetic tricks and lip plumping products you can pick up at your local CVS or Sephora.
The benefit of this kind of approach? “…it’s not dangerous, it’s not permanent, and it’s safe.”

If you’re ready for a longer lasting lip effect, however, Dr. Davis also has in-office solutions—injectables.
“If you really want to get your lips to look like Kylie’s lips, go to someone who is professionally trained in doing injectables.”

Did You Know…? 5 Surprising Facts About Dr. Davis

May 6, 2015 by Davis

You know he’s a great surgeon. You know he’s got the best bedside manner. But did you know that Dr. Davis went to school on a tennis scholarship (Fact #1)? If you read the Wall Street Journal, you might. If you’re connected to Dr. Davis on Instagram (@davis_cps), Twitter or Facebook, you definitely do.

On May 4, the WSJ published an up-close and personal look at how Dr. Davis keeps his body—and mind—in shape in the article “A Plastic Surgeon Finds Boxing and Tennis Go Together.” Here are 4 more facts the WSJ shared about our Dr. Davis:

Dr. S. Davis Boxing WSJFACT: Dr. Davis works out at Joe Hand Boxing Gym in Philly.

It just so happens that this is also the gym that Jesse Hart trains at. Hart recently fought—and won—the undercard at the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight in Vegas.

“I walked in the door and it was a no frills, real-deal boxing gym,” he told the WSJ. “I’ve yet to take a bad hit, but I do get called on at the gym to assess others who’ve been hit and might have a broken nose.”

FACT: Dr. Davis eats high protein, low carb.

Daily staples include protein shakes, protein bars, yogurt, chicken, fish, vegetables and fruit. Weekends he splurges on the good stuff—pasta and bread.

FACT: He has a gym in his home: treadmill, punching bag, the whole nine yards.

You don’t need the home gym to follow in Dr. Davis’ footsteps though. You can do that by picking up his Nike Free Trainer 5.0 v6 training shoes he wears for $100.

FACT: Dr. Davis has eclectic musical tastes.

Or, maybe, it’s just his sons’ influence.

“My iPod has everything you can imagine from Jay Z to Sinatra. You might hear a track by Andrea Bocelli followed by a song from Ne-Yo,” he told the WSJ.

As far as the idea that somehow boxing and tennis go together? As Dr. Davis explained to the news source, “You’re out there alone on the court or in the ring and it comes down to understanding what the other guy is going to do so you can counter it.”
