Baton Rouge plastic surgeon Dr. James LaNasa, Jr. limits his cosmetic surgery to the face and neck region. Procedures performed include the latest cosmetic surgery techniques to correct the effects of aging as well as both primary and revision surgery of the nose. This includes simultaneous sinus surgery when necessary. Cosmetic surgery operations of the aging face consist of a variety of forehead (brow) lifts, blepharoplasty (eyelids), and the newer deep plane face lift. These plastic surgery procedures provide excellent correction of the mid face (cheek-lip) fold. These procedures also provide for correction of the typical jowling and neck changes. The eye lid procedures include the preferred transconjunctival approach (through the inside of the lower lid) to prevent shortening and rounding of the lower lid too often seen in the usual technique, ala Al Pacino and Kenny Rogers!
These Baton Rouge cosmetic surgery procedures are performed on an outpatient basis at the modern Lake Surgery Center on Perkins Road. However, in the event that an overnight stay becomes necessary, beds are available at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center a few blocks away. Post operative recovery varies from a few days to a week and a half depending upon the procedures chosen. While swelling and bruising depend upon the individual patient, skin type and other uncontrollable variables, pain from carefully executed techniques is usually minimal. This discomfort is not related to the number of procedures performed simultaneously but is only that of the most uncomfortable operation. Further details, fees, scheduling availability, etc. are addressed during your consultation with Dr. LaNasa, Jr. at his Baton Rouge cosmetic surgery office.
