About Leon Goldstein, MD - Providence,
Rhode Island (RI)
Dr. Goldstein's mission is to provide the best possible cosmetic results under the safest possible conditons.
After 3 pregancies, 3 c-sections and a case of diastasis recti, I was very uncomfortable with my body. I felt like I looked pregnant all the time.
After meeting with Dr. Goldstein and discussing my options, I was confident enough to go ahead and have a tummy tuck. He made me feel so comfortable and answered all of my questions. I had such a great experience that I would highly recommend him to anyone. I am so confident about my body now and I feel so much stronger. Just 6 months after having the surgery I was able to run in a 4 mile road race in under 36 minutes! I feel great and I am so happy that I went ahead with the procedure.
-He is wonderful!, T.S.
Dr. Leon Goldstein feels that safety is of the utmost importance and that appropriate training and certification in this field of expertise is essential since many other different specialties are also performing cosmetic surgery (plastic surgery) whose training is not to the same degree and experience as in this specialty.
Dr. Goldstein's practice is dedicated to cosmetic surgery with major contribution and emphasis onall aspects of minimally invasive as well as advanced techniques in facial, eye, and breast surgery. New procedures have been employed in body contouring which includes tummy tucks, thigh and arm lifts, trunk reduction and liposuction Laser treatment of the aging skin is also an important facet of the care available.
We understand that cosmetic surgery is a major decision for our patients. Cosmetic surgery can change your life. Most of our patients are surprised at the affordability of our cosmetic surgery procedures. We offer financing plans for patients to make cosmetic surgery even more affordable.
Dr. Goldstein has his own in-office private surgical suite with its own dedicated staff for the express purpose of providing a private, intimate and safe setting for cosmetic surgery. The facility is accredited by the Joint Commission of Hospital Accreditation which is also the national organization that accredits and certifies hospitals.
Unfortunately, diet and exercise don't always get rid of those stubborn fat deposits that nature put in the tummy, legs, hips, saddlebags, etc. Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure with great results and fast recovery.
Many Rhode Island or Connecticut area residents turn to liposuction to achieve a shapelier figure by reducing unwanted bulges that cannot be eliminated through diet and exercise. Liposuction sculpts the body to its proper proportions and many patients find that self-image and self-confidence improve as well. The dramatic results obtained through liposuction can be maintained by adhering to a healthy diet and exercise program.
Modern techniques allow for removal of larger volumes to help even heavier people lose inches. Make sure your plastic surgeon uses the latest liposuction techniques, including tumescent , superwet , ultrasound (UAL) and syringe liposuction to help his patients in their battle against the bulge.
Tummy Tuck
Sometimes, no matter how hard you exercise or how well you eat, you just can't get the flat stomach you desire. You may just need a little extra help to improve your appearance. A tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that can help flatten your stomach.
A tummy tuck is a common procedure for both men and women. A tummy tuck is designed for people who are in generally good shape but have trouble with stubborn fat deposits in their abdominal areas. Men and women who have lost a great deal of weight often undergo a tummy tuck procedure to reduce the excess skin around their waste line. Women who have had children may also lack muscle tone, and struggle to regain this tone despite exercise.
During the tummy tuck procedure, excess skin is removed from the abdomen and the remaining skin is tightened along the muscles of the abdominal wall. A tummy tuck will leave you with a more slender, contoured torso and give you a renewed confidence.
The Great Skin Hoax
Beauty and health spas along with "fitness centers" would have everybody believe that you can exercise skin and thereby "tone" it like muscle. They also would have you believe that vitamins, herbal concoctions and exotic lotions (more on that later) can rejuvenate the skin. Nothing could be further from the truth!
You can exercise muscle, brain, heart, lungs, and even bone, but not skin. Skin is very much like a rubber band. It has the same elastic properties. Both can be stretched to the point that their elastic bonds break. The rubber band has small white streaks and does not return to its former length; skin has "stretch marks" and poor elasticity and capability to return to its former size. This happens when both the rubber band and skin are stressed beyond their normal limits. Once that occurs the elasticity is gone forever. The second way that elasticity decreases or vanishes is, of course, with age. Put a rubber band in a drawer for a year or two and see what happens. Hope springs eternal and thats how millions if not billions of dollars are spent. As long as we don't inquire they will not tell.
