Dr. Brueck appears on TV to discuss lip implants

Another Sunday morning and I had an opportunity to appear on Channel 5's American Health Journal. This time the subject was lip implants.

Lip implants can be a significant part of facial rejuvenation, providing a fuller, more youthful look to the mouth area. Here's what I had to say.

Plastic surgery news - luscious lips surgery now done here

Earlier this month, we blogged about a new implant material, PermaLip, that has the consistency of a "gummy bear". It is flexible silicone elastomer that can be trimmed to size and implanted in the upper or lower lip in a procedure that takes about a half-hour. Normal activity may be resumed the next day.

Up until now, however, it was something in the future for local residents.

Now, the PermaLip procedure is available with Dr. Robert J. Brueck MD right here in Fort Myers and Cape Coral, Florida. He recently performed a PermaLip implant with a local patient who is ecstatic with the results.

Here are some before and after photographs.










Please note how much more full, plump and youthful-looking the new lips are.




One of the benefits of this procedure is its persistence. Once the implant has been made it does not need to be redone the way painful filler injections do.

At the same time, if you are dissatisfied, removal is easy and quick in short reversal procedure in my office.

If you are interested in this procedure for your lips, or any other cosmetic surgery, call me, Dr. Brueck, at 239-939-5233.

Or visit my web site at Beauty-by-Brueck.com to read about my credentials and lots of background information on all the surgical and non-surgical procedures I specialize in.

Thank you.

New techniques in cosmetic surgery for luscious lips

NEW RICHER FULLER LIPS

There are many challenges in cosmetic surgery today.

One has to do with creating fuller, more youthful looking lips (lip augmentation.)

The procedure of choice has been injecting dermal fillers. Fine, as far as they go. But injections can be painful and only temporary. They often require multiple injections over time to maintain that fullness.

We now have a new “gummy bear lip”. A new “PermaLip” implant is now available. It's made from silastic polymer with the consistency of a soft gummy bear. It has tapered ends simulating the normal lip line.

The implant is soft and has a natural feeling.

Implanting can be done in a simple outpatient procedure with light sedation which translates into no pain. Because there is no tissue ingrowth to the implant it is very easy to remove or reposition if necessary.

The before and after photos I think speak for themselves.

Photos are provided by PermaLip (c) and do not represent Dr. Brueck's work.

Recently a paper was written by Drs. Harris and Raphael of Plano, Texas, discussing their experience with 412 patients utilizing the PermaLip implant. Complications were minimal; 17 out of 412 patients required some repositioning of the implant and no patients lost their implant due to infection.

Satisfaction was almost universal, even after several months. Only two of the 412 patients expressed dissatisfaction and two requested removal due to family pressure.

It now has received FDA approval. No longer do you have to endure repeated injections to have full youthful lips. To schedule a complimentary consultation to see if you are a candidate for PermaLip please call our office at (239) 939-5233.
