November 2011 Newsletter

December 2010 To My Patients, Another blistering fast year is about to endcan you believe its been 11 years since the eve of 2000, the paranoia of the new millennium, storing water and canned food, readying for the new millennium holocaust? It didn't happen, we're alive and we've struggled through another election last month. No more political ads for maybe another year-gracias a dios. Now its time to think of your sagging face and neck, your wrinkles and skin, your breasts, your belly and hip fat and what you can do to think better about yourself. Truly a horrible statement but its time to keep you up on new plastic surgical happenings and some cheap advice. I've had requests for opinions on procedures and topics and what I might think is advisable without looking at you. Again, if you hate these email newsletters let us know. I .Brow lift and Blepharoplasty: Several patients requested information regarding brow lifts which involves lifting up the

Summer 2010 Newsletter To My Patients: Once again this bias newsletter has been delayed a bit too long, but now I am ready to inform you of a few new things happening in this office and nationally in the plastic surgery field. Our last newsletter was generally well received except for the political comments on healthcare and the communist bastard insurance companies. Had a few calls and emails on these topics. If you hate these newsletters or me, let us know and we will drop you from the list. However, any comments you have on my prejudice meanderings are welcome. I. Thermage: As mentioned in the last letter, Thermage, a unique high radiofrequency technology that heats up deep layers in the skin, stimulating collagen and resulting in smoother, tighter and firmer skin in most patients, but not all patients, has recently improved. The technology and our Thermage machine has been upgraded, and we are actually excited about the improved results. Aesthetic facial rejuvenatio

September 9, 2009 Dear Patients: Were done with the summer- the quickest of my life- and time to move on. This regular biased newsletter is long overdue as Im bursting with information and in need of unloading my opinions on you. Whats happening in this office, changes in plastic surgical procedures and even ideas on the health care issues are poignant topics. Our aesthetic practice simply involves making people feel better about themselves whether it is a fresher look as you glance in the mirror or a more confident sense of well being when you are with or without your clothes. Our persistent goal is to make our patients happy; simple stuff. In the next few months Ill be dumping my gleaned biased thoughts on you again. Please, if you find this offensive or wish not to receive these newsletters let us know and well delete youbut not from the face of the earth. I. Cosmetic Breast Surgery In 2008 cosmeti

To My Patients: It has been months since my last blog, biased opinionated newsletterguess I havent had much to say about whats new and excitingbut now there are new procedures and products that are noteworthy in this practiceits time to inform you again. Although the economy is in the tank, our patients still want to improve their appearance, take care of their skin and change what they dont like about their bodies, (thank heaven) so there is still a lot going on in our offices. The longer Ive been in practice, now over 25 years, the more Ive encountered patients who are well informed and briefed on cosmetic surgical operations and nonsurgical treatments, i.e. Botox, facial fillers, Thermage, nonsurgical skin tightening, lasers and general skin care. Most patients know of the many options, but need our advice as to what is best for them as individuals. So we give our patients the most proper and safest course of treatment. If you do not wish to rece

"This was my 3rd procedure with Dr. G. I trust him completely" - C.C. "Dr. Geraghty and his staff gave me answers to questions I had not even thought of! Dr. Geraghty is so cool. I just loved talking to him and his wonderful sense of humor put me at ease immediately." - D.B. "Dr. Geraghty has a good bedside manner and doesn't do surgery when he knows that it is unnecessary. I feel that he does it to help people rather than line his pockets. Great Dr! Great staff!" - D.G. "I felt like Dr. Geraghty really cared about the results of the procedure as well as me as a person". - A.B. "I consulted with Dr. Geraghty only because his name always came up when you ask anyone "who is the best?" I am a return/repeat patient - wouldn't consider anyone but Dr. Geraghty. I consider him an exceptional person as well as an exceptional surgeon. I have the utmost trust in him." - B.M. "I like the help Dr. Geraghty gives to cleft palate people (in the Domincan Republic).
