Dr. Palma has more than 25 years of
experience with all techniques of cosmetic surgery, especially
facial cosmetic surgery. He performs 100% of each step of the
surgical procedure himself. Patients come to him because of his
expertise, experience and reputation. He trained at some of the top
medical institutions in the world (Harvard Medical School graduate,
Plastic Surgery Residency at Stanford University) and has a
well-earned reputation as one of the top Plastic Surgeons in South
Florida.
(See Meet Dr. Palma).
Most nationally advertised
"mini-facelifts" or limited facelifts are performed in facilities
run by businessmen as a business, not a medical practice. Your
initial evaluation and Consultation in that setting is usually
performed by someone other than the Plastic Surgeon who will be
actually doing your surgery. They frequently hire new and sometimes
inexperienced surgeons who may not have enough business in their own
practices, surgeons with Board Certification in specialties other
than Plastic Surgery and sometimes foreign medical graduates, to
perform the procedures. Since they usually have multiple surgeons,
the facility will most likely assign the one to perform your surgery
without your input or choice in the matter. Their surgeons are
usually employees and may be "here today, gone tomorrow".
Dr. Palma is fond of saying: " In my
practice, patients are treated as individuals, with the dignity and
respect they deserve. New patients see me, the surgeon, from the get
go. My initial consultation is detailed and thorough, with safety
and results as the main goals. I will not recommend any procedure
unless I firmly believe that it is the best and safest for the
patient. There is never any sales pressure to get the patient to
schedule the procedure.
The surgery is performed 100% by me,
without rush, and with attention to each and every detail to
optimize the results. I also personally supervise every step of the
pre- and post-operative care on each patient. I plan on being around
for many years and each patient is assured of access to me
personally, as their personal surgeon, for as long as it takes."
No two faces or necks are alike. With
years of experience, Dr. Palma has learned what works and what does
not; what is safe and what is not. Although there are common steps
to all SimpleLIFTs, each procedure is unique and tailored to the
individual patient. This is the only way to achieve the best results
for each patient. Some commercially managed surgical facilities use
more of a "cookie-cutter" approach, performing basically the same
procedure on most, if not all patients.
Other techniques for lifting the neck
and jowls being offered around the country use various "Threads" or "Strings". Practitioners offering these techniques
usually promise results with minimal or no scars. These procedures
are sometimes performed by dermatologists or other practitioners
with no formal surgical training. The results from these procedures
have more often than not been temporary at best and for the most
part very disappointing. The SimpleLIFT does not use any of these
devises. (See "What
is a SimpleLIFT")
Dr. Palma is an expert in cosmetic
surgery and cosmetic medicine. Many of his SimpleLIFT patients take
advantage of this and undergo additional procedures. (See
FAQ's) In
other words, his practice is not limited to the SimpleLIFT. He
offers each and every one of his patients what he feels is the best
treatment to achieve their personal goals.
