Better today, swelling way down and was able to put my contacts back in and see again. No pain or discomfort, I see the healing progressing. Some of the dead skin cells are sloughing off my face when I washed it today with the special cleanser Dr. Mirrafati recommended. Still look like a raccoon- but its getting better

Tuesday February 2, 2010

I woke up and my eyes are a bit swollen and still a bit blurry. The treatment area is now turned red and brownish which tells me its healing. There is no pain or discomfort. I bit scarry to look at…and this too shall fade away and we head towards younger fresher skin…woo hoo- cant wait.

I’m taking some arnica montana for the swelling and trying to rest my eyes.

I decided to get CO2 Laser for my eyes in honor of my 50th birthday next week. My good friend Stacie wanted to do it too, so we decided to go together. I’ve never had too many wrinkles and always felt I looked younger than my age, but I feel like my skin was catching up with me.
We arrived about 1pm. I was feeling a bit apprehensive and a bit excited. Lydia applied a numbing crème and relaxed for about 30 mins. Dr. Mirrafati arrived and immediately put me at ease and made me feel quite comfortable. The procedure was quick and I did jump like a little bunny rabbit at times. It did hurt but more it was startling like a little shock. It burned a bit afterward but soon that passed.
Special thanks to Dr. Mirrafati and his staff at Mira Aesthetics. He has such a great bedside manner and I appreciated it very much.
I was able to watch Stacie get hers done. It was fascinating to see her skin shrink and her wrinkles disappear right before my very eyes. Amazing technology.
I am going to blog about my journey over the next several days as I heal.

Mira ReGenalift®
Restore beauty in an afternoon
Your face is restored to a younger look by sculpting and adding volume to give you lift, dimension and super-charging your own body’s ability to regenerate new cells resulting in a younger look.
We start by liposculpting the neck and jaw line area, which makes your skin retract to its original youthful appearance. Dr. Mirrafati’s signature fat processing technique uses a protein blend to separate out the highest quality level of fat, which is rich in stem cells. These super-charged cells are then artistically injected in very small quantities strategically throughout the facial tissue layers above and below the muscle and in your cheek pads to facilitate regeneration and add desired volume and dimension. Next, the CO2 Fraction Laser allows for the removal of fine lines on the skin, then, as needed, the doctor can apply the popular Botox, Juvederm or Restylane to further remove wrinkles and deep lines to complete the look. The whole procedure is easily done in a few hours in an afternoon under a local anesthetic.

Every woman should be able to look and feel glamorous for the holidays. Woman are choosing Botox as a quick and easy way to look their best. We offer Botox for only $99/area. Book your appointment today.

These days at Mira Aesthetics, we have very busy meeting new people and seeing new patients and celebrating the holidays. We greatly appreciate all the referrals. Our Ready-to-Wear Breasts are being talked about all over the OC Blogs and remain our most popular procedure for only $2700 and no hidden fees.

It’s been a busy beginning of the week with many new patient consultations and Botox treatments at Mira Aesthetics.

We’ve noticed a trend of women and men are coming into Mira more frequently these days to seeks out information about popular cosmetic procedures such as Botox which is a safe and effective way of keeping your younger look! My patients, both men and women, are coming in for the popular cosmetic treatment daily. On a typical day, I have about a half dozen Botox appointments, in addition to surgical appointments.

This morning I had a very complex surgery to complete this morning in the surgery center. One of my patients was getting a breast reduction but first I had to remove her existing implants because of complications with a previous doctor. While many people may think we only do breast enlargement surgery, we actually do many breast reduction procedures. That’s why I always preach that it’s very important to do your research before committing to a doctor who to trust to help enhance any part of your body.

Today, we had a very interesting experience with a patient, which we performed our signature procedure: READY-TO-WEAR BREASTS. She came to Mira Aesthetics with a very apprehensive outlook on breast surgery because of previous consultations with other surgeons. This patient was told that she needed a breast lift in addition to her breast implants. Both procedures together would have cost her an additional 3,000 dollars, a lot more pain and bad scarring. I was able to avoid all of those problems by creating a pocket under the breast tissue, which mimics the lift procedure, avoiding a second costly procedure.

Later in the day I performed upper eyelid surgery on a man who suffers from significant skin drooping around the eye area. When he came into my office, he told me that for the last 20 years he couldn’t see out of the corner of his eye because of this excess skin. He was in the recovery area, he expressed with joy, “I can see out of my eyes, it’s a miracle!”

What a rewarding day!

Now the wonderful holiday’s over, it’s back to a busy day at Mira Aesthetic! We are pairing modern medicine and fashion to give women the ultimate gift, READY-TO-WEAR BREASTS, our most popular procedure.

More and more patients are choosing tummy tucks and lipo, we are excited to see a few new patients today for consultations. Later in the day, clients are coming in for the trendy filler treatments. It’s a wonderful day at Mira! Hope you all have a great Monday!

Before the holiday weekend, patients have been packing into Mira Aesthetics to get last minute beautifying treatments. My first patient was a male who wanted to sculpt and shape his abdomen, chest and flank area.

It goes to show that men are just likely to choose cosmetic surgery to enhance their natural features.

Following the surgery, I saw patients in my offices for the popular Botox injection treatments!

A new patient came in to my office to learn about a face tightening treatment. While work has been great I’m looking forward to spending a nice weekend with my beautiful family and enjoying a delicious meal! Have a wonderful holiday, everyone.

Dr. Sid Mirrafati
