Tummy Tuck with Liposuction of back, hips, thighs and knees by Dr. Paul Vitenas in Houston, TX A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, removes excess fat and skin, and in most cases restores weakened or separated muscles creating an abdominal profile that is smoother and firmer. A flat and well-toned abdomen is something many of us strive for through exercise and weight control. Sometimes these methods cannot achieve our goals. Even individuals of otherwise normal body weight and proportion can develop an abdomen that protrudes or is loose and sagging. The most common causes of this include: Pregnancy Aging Significant fluctuations in weight Heredity Prior surgery What a tummy tuck won't do: Tummy tucks are not a substitute for weight loss or an appropriate exercise program. Also, tummy tuck operations cannot correct stretch marks, although these may be removed or somewhat improved if they are located on the areas of excess skin that will be excised, generally the treated areas below the belly button.

Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction) by Dr. Paul Vitenas at Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery in Houston, TX Gynecomastia is swelling of the breast tissue in boys or men, caused by an imbalance of the hormones estrogen and testosterone. Gynecomastia can affect one or both breasts, sometimes unevenly. Newborns, boys going through puberty and older men may develop gynecomastia as a result of normal changes in hormone levels, though other causes also exist. Generally, gynecomastia isn't a serious problem, but it can be tough to cope with. Men and boys with gynecomastia sometimes have pain in their breasts and may feel embarrassed. Gynecomastia may go away on its own. If it persists, medication or surgery can help.

Breast Implant Exchange with Strattice by Dr. Paul Vitenas at Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery in Houston, TX Strattice™ Reconstructive Tissue Matrix is a surgical mesh that is derived from porcine skin and is processed and preserved in a phosphate buffered aqueous solution containing matrix stabilizers. This device is designed to perform as a surgical mesh for soft tissue repair while presenting a scaffold to the patient. The structural properties minimize tissue attachment to the mesh. The Strattice device consists of a terminally sterilized sheet of the processed porcine dermal matrix provided in prescribed geometric configurations and thicknesses and packaged in a double pouch configuration. Use of Strattice provides for an implant which is strong, biocompatible and will incorporate into the recipient tissue with associated cell and microvascular ingrowth. INDICATIONS FOR USE Strattice is intended for use as a soft tissue patch to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists and for the surgical repair of damaged or ruptured soft tissue membranes. Indications for use include the repair of hernias and/or body wall defects which require the use of reinforcing or bridging material to obtain the desired surgical outcome.

Use of Strattice provides for an implant which is strong, biocompatible and will incorporate into the recipient tissue with associated cell and microvascular ingrowth. Animal studies show a low incidence in adhesion to the Strattice surgical mesh based on observation of minimal visceral tissue attachment.
