What’s Fat Transfer?
Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought that a certain area could use more volume? Is there stubborn fat that you just want gone? Well, at Conkright Aesthetics we offer liposuction and fat transfer! Liposuction removes unwanted fat and allows for it to be harvested and transferred to an area where you’re seeking fullness. This minimally invasive procedure is ideal for treating two problems at once. With Dr. Conkright’s expertise and careful attention to details you cannot go wrong.
The most common areas for fat to be removed is from the stomach, thighs, and hips. Once fat […]
The answer is not the same for everyone. The FDA dictates that those under 22 are not eligible for Silicone gel breast augmentation and must use saline only. Both Silicone and Saline breast implants are safe, enlarge the breast and are available for patients 22 and older.
The differences are how they feel, the price, the warranty and in our practice, the amount of time needed in the operating room. Extra time is needed to fill a saline breast implant.
Currently Dr. Conkright is using Allergan Inspira gel breast implants. Allergan, also the manufacturer of Botox offers 50 units of Free Botox […]
Brachioplasty or an arm lift surgery has increased tremendously over the past 10 years. Who are the patients having this procedure and are you a candidate? Diet, exercise and gastric bypass patients who have lost massive amounts of weight include the many who are going through with the surgery. Surgery is their decision to rid themselves of the hanging skin they have acquired while they gladly trade this off for an inner arm scar. However, what if you just have a fat upper arm and this will not change regardless of diet and exercise? Brachioplasty may not be the answer. You might be a candidate […]

Recently a new patient arrived in the office requesting a consultation concerning her skin. The 30-40 something was concerned with fine lines, laxity, pore clogging and discoloration. Referred by a family member whose skin was “radiant” and “beautiful”, this patient was seeking a regime that would render the same radiant, beautiful results for her. After careful examination, I made recommendations and proceeded with demonstrations of products along with written instructions and explanations for their use. The final part of the consultation included a question and answer session. The patient was examining the products and said “there are parabins in this […]
Recently there has been a lot of ”talk” about the ill-effects of eating sugary food, but we tend to skip over the topic of high fructose corn syrup-a sweetener that is commonly used in every day foods. While we tend to consume it on a daily basis (yes, you likely do, just take a look at your drink ingredients), we don’t think about the negative effects it can have on our skin. Aside from potential weight gain, excessive intake of high fructose corn syrup may cause issues like cellulite, acne, hyper pigmentation and tooth decay.
One major reason is because our bodies […]
The holidays are one of the busiest times of the year for Botox injections. Looking your best for all festivities and photos that go with them is very important. First time users and veterans alike are searching for the most economic and convenient appointment time. Often, shopping renders a less expensive price tag and maybe even a more convenient place or time of day for a busy schedule. Botox is a natural purified protein that relaxes muscles by blocking nerve impulses. Injecting this into the muscle causes them to relax and the skin to be smoother and youthful. That is […]
