Military rush on Body lipo to make measurements - MARCH 2009

Our practice has seen a large influx of Military members choosing Liposuction to help them make weight/ measurements, to avoid being discharged from the military. Many are taking advantage of the $500 discount that we offer to military personnel.

CT1 Bryan says “ For me Liposuction was my last hope. Starting in 2006 the Navy changed its policy and now 3 PRT or Body Fat compositions failures mean you're separated from the Navy. This was a scary prospect for me as I have a wife and 3 young children to think about. Despite being in shape, and watching what I ate, I just couldn’t get rid of the “love handles” , and I had failed 2 times by a very small amount. I opted to get Liposuction on my abdomen and my flank and was absolutely thrilled at the results and relieved to be honest. The staff at Athena Clinic really made me feel comfortable and at ease in the consultation and the decision to go ahead and just do it. They see a lot of military service members and understand the issues and worked with me on timing so I would get the best results in time for my PRT”. The no salt in my diet kind of sucked for a few weeks but it was well worth it.

Dr. Peterson Returns from the World Congress

Dr. Peterson was honored to be invited to present five talks on cosmetic surgery to The 50th World Congress of the International Academy of Cosmetic Surgery.

The titles of his presentations: "Reduction of Peri-operative Pain," "New Technique for Nasal Tip Refinement," "Upper Face Rejuvenation," "Painless Abdominoplasty," and "My Experience with Serdev Scarless Brow Lift." You may be particularly interested in "Painless Abdominoplasty".

Having a tummy tuck used to be a very painful procedure that required general anesthesia and overnight stays in the hospital. Dr. Peterson presented his new technique that allows the patient to go home the same day, and prevents the need for general anesthesia, even with significant tightening of the stomach muscle. Most patients take only one or two pain pills over the first day post op, and some take only Tylenol!

If you would like more information about the "Painless Abdominoplasty," please call 808-944-8551 to schedule a consultation.
