We’re also taking 10% off the price of Juvéderm, our popular injectable that smoothes skin and eliminates wrinkles. Juvéderm’s main ingredient occurs naturally in the skin and treatment can last for up to one year, so it’s a great alternative to surgical procedures.

COSMETIC SURGERY MYTHS BUSTED
There is a lot of misinformation surrounding plastic surgery due to its exposure in TV, movies, magazines, and the news. Luckily, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (to which Dr. Lawler belongs) has taken steps to address some common plastic surgery myths. Here are a few of our favorites…
Myth #1: Only plastic surgeons can legally perform plastic surgery.
No regulations govern what type of medical practitioner can perform plastic surgery procedures. So the best way to know your surgeon is qualified is to choose an ASPS Member Surgeon.
ASPS Member Surgeons:
- Are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery to perform plastic surgery of the face and all areas of the body
- Have at least six years of surgical training and experience, with a minimum of three years of plastic surgery
- Operate only in accredited facilities
- Fulfill continuing medical education requirements
Myth #2: All plastic surgeries are performed in accredited facilities.
Some practitioners perform plastic surgery procedures in nonaccredited facilities. Making sure that your procedure can be performed in an accredited facility will significantly reduce safety risks and increase your comfort level. ASPS Member Surgeons perform surgeries only in accredited facilities.
Myth #3: Science still has not proven the safety of silicone breast implants.
In November 2006, the FDA reversed its 14-year ban on silicone breast implants, allowing patients in the United States access to the same implants that women in 60 countries around the world already have.
You can find a wealth of scientific information on the safety of silicone breast implants at www.breastimplantsafety.org.
