Washington, DC Plastic Surgeon Pioneers New Minimal-Scarring...( One of the m...),Health

One of the most respected and innovative plastic surgeons in the nation has built upon his development of the minimal-incision arm lift technique by adding a new liposuction procedure to the process. Vaser® LipoSelection combined with Dr. Mark Richards' pioneering minimal incision brachioplasty gives patients better contours and virtually invisible scars that are hidden inside the armpit – and the world of plastic surgery is taking notice.

Washington, DC (Vocus) December 4, 2008 -- Dr. Mark E. Richards, one of the leading plastic surgeons in the Washington, DC and Maryland area, is continuing his commitment to developing new and innovative body contouring techniques that advance the field of plastic surgery and give patients even better, more natural-looking results without the appearance of scarring. Dr. Richards is utilizing his minimal-incision arm lift (brachioplasty) technique, a revolutionary procedure he developed to eliminate unsightly scars along the arm, in conjunction with Vaser® LipoSelection® to eliminate extra fat and skin hanging from the upper arms. By making incisions in the armpit instead of the traditional method of a long incision down the arm, Dr. Richards can provide effective reduction of hanging tissue with the added benefit of virtually invisible scars.

More than 200 Washington DC arm lift (brachioplasty) patients have benefitted from this state-of-the-art procedure, and Dr. Mark Richards says it has distinct advantages over traditional methods. "For many people who are unhappy with the appearance of their arms, this is the first option that offers real improvement plus the discretion of a hidden incision."
