That said, we also understand the importance of prospective patients to see the work we’ve done. A picture is worth a thousand words, after all. We feel we have found the most optimal balance in making a Before and After Photo Gallery available to our prospective patients in office. We invite you to view our small online Photo Gallery, and to schedule an appointment for your own personal consultation and to see more before and after photos.

Albany Liposuction
April 23rd, 2012Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of a specific area of the body. Liposuction may be used to get rid of excess fat in the thighs, buttocks, upper arm, back and knees which has been resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction is often used in conjunction with other procedures such as abdominoplasty or face lift to produce optimal results.
Liposuction is not a form of weight loss. Some of the best candidates for Liposuction are those who are in relatively good shape but have specific parts of their body they would like to trim down. Using liposuction, Dr. Kayastha can help you achieve the results you desire.

Albany Thighplasty
April 15th, 2012By far, the midsection, arms and thighs are among the biggest areas of complaint amongst women the world-over. Having larger thighs that are out of proportion with the rest of the body can make shopping more difficult and can make many women feel uncomfortable in their bodies. Unfortunately genetics can often play an even larger role in how our bodies form and where we hold onto fat deposits more so than our diet and exercise. Even otherwise considered thin women can develop un-proportionate “saddle bags”- or excess fat on the outer thigh which may be resistant to exercise.
Some women are able to achieve the dramatic weight loss they desired, but are then left with excess, sagging skin on the thighs which may only be excised surgically. Whatever the cause, if you’re unhappy with the thickness of your thighs, and are frustrated with not getting the results you desire through diet and exercise, an Albany Thigh Lift may be for you. If are interested in discussing your options further with Dr. Kayastha, we invite you to send us an e-mail to set up your one on one consultation. We look forward to hearing from you!

Albany Brachioplasty
April 2nd, 2012There are many reasons which could cause a man or woman to be dissatisfied with the appearance of their arms. Dramatic weight loss is one of the most common causes people seek out Brachioplasty, or Arm Lift surgery. Often after a dramatic weight loss, one is left with excess, hanging skin which can only be removed though Arm Lift surgery. Other people may struggle with losing excess fat on their underarms and find that diet and exercise alone is not able to give them the tone they desire. In this case arm liposuction coupled with a Brachioplasty procedure may be the best way to achieve the results you seek.
To be considered a good candidate for Brachioplasty, you should be in good health and have maintained a healthy, stable weight for past several months. It is also important to have realistic expectations. Brachioplasty will not give you the arms of a supermodel, but it will give you an improved version of your own.

Blepharoplasty – Albany
March 19th, 2012With age the wear and gravity begin to show in our skin, particularly in the area around our eyes. Eyelids can begin to droop, sag, develop excess skin folds and wrinkles on the upper or lower lids. Since we spend most of our time communicating with people looking into each other’s eyes, it is important that they are reflecting how we really feel. The common signs of aging can tend to make us look tired, rundown or even upset, even when we aren’t.
If you are tired of seeing the face of someone who doesn’t represent how you feel on the inside when you look in the mirror, you may be a good candidate for Blepharoplasty. Blepharoplasty, or Eyelid Lift Surgery, is a procedure to improve the eyelids by removing excess skin or fat or muscle and creating a smoother more alert and youthful look. Often Blepharoplasty is done in combination with other facial rejuvenational procedures such as a brow lift, face lift or dermal fillers.

Albany Mommy Makeovers
March 12th, 2012It’s hard being a Mom, in fact, it’s one of the hardest jobs on earth and perhaps one of the least recognized. You never get a fat Christmas bonus or a Summer vacation and while the experience is certainly full of a great many wonderful moments which most Mom’s would never trade for anything, the effects of child-birth often mean Mom’s pre-baby body days are over. Unless you are one of the crazy-lucky ones, most of our bodies don’t simply bounce back into shape after having kids, no matter how much exercise we manage to fit into our schedule or how well we might eat. Part of the reason is due to excess, sagging skin caused by fluctuating weight changes.
The Mommy Makeover is becoming an incredibly popular trend. Mom’s can reclaim and rejuvenate their bodies to feel more confident and beautiful than ever. Which, less face it, every Mom deserves to feel beautiful every day. The Mommy Makeover is designed to meet each patient’s individual needs. To discuss what options are available to you, contact our office for a consultation.
