If you were teased in school about your noticeable ears, then you might want to consider an otoplasty. An otoplasty is a procedure to correct ear prominence or asymmetry. An otoplasty can be performed at any age, whether you’re seven years old or fifty-seven. At Rowley Plastic Surgery in Lubbock, TX Dr. Jane Rowley has the experience and expertise to correct your ear shape with an otoplasty. Dr. Rowley recommends that children with larger than normal ears should wait to have an otoplasty until they are old enough to discuss the procedure with their parents. In this procedure, an incision is made behind the ear, and internal sutures are placed to reshape the contour of the ear cartilage and to bring the ears closer to the head. Besides a head dressing for a week, the recovery is fairly straightforward with little to no complications.

Before having a breast augmentation, you should know about the various types of breast implants available. At Rowley Plastic Surgery in Lubbock , Dr. Jane Rowley offers her patients the following options: ●        Saline: These breast implants are inserted empty, and then filled with sterile salt water once they're in place. This allows a plastic surgeon to adjust the size of the implants during surgery to achieve better symmetry. If a saline breast implant ruptures, the implant will deflate, which makes it easy to detect a leak. ●        Silicone: These implants are prefilled with thick and sticky silicone gel, which feels a lot like your natural breast tissue. If you get a silent rupture in your silicone breast implants, it’s hard to detect the leak. Leaking silicone gel isn't thought to cause any damage to the body or any long-term health problems. ●        Ideal Implant: The Id...

When it comes to breast augmentation , Dr. Jane Rowley of Rowley Plastic Surgery in Lubbock states that “A skilled surgeon can make your breasts larger, but we cannot make your breasts look like someone else’s breasts.” That’s why if you’re considering a breast augmentation, you should do it for yourself with a clear expectation of what you want your body to look like. Three Reasons for a Breast Augmentation 1.       A desire to return to pre-pregnancy breast volume and appearance: after pregnancy and subsequent breastfeeding, breasts can get droopy and have a deflated look. A breast augmentation can restore that lost volume. 2.       Concern over breast asymmetry, with one side visibly smaller in appearance: a breast augmentation can correct this asymmetry, making both breasts equal in size and creating a balanced figure. 3.       Lack of breast tissue: some women simply don’t have as much...

Sometimes no matter how hard you work out, there are simply no exercises that will get rid of that saggy belly skin. If this sounds like you, then there’s a good chance that you would benefit from an abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck . Who Benefits From a Tummy Tuck ? ●        Postpartum women— Abdominal muscles often shrink, but they almost never go back to where they were before pregnancy. A tummy tuck can tighten the skin around the abdomen and shape the muscles to give the tummy a flatter, more attractive look. ●        People after significant weight loss— Excess skin leftover from pounds recently lost can dampen your self-image. A tummy tuck lifts all the skin up to the rib cage and then it is cut and re-draped to accentuate the new, beautiful body you have. ●        Those With that Middle Age Bulge— With middle age comes a slower metabolism, and often a “muffin...
