Dr. Bafitis discusses the “skin tightening” effect of one Ultherapy® treatment. Ulthera technology directs safe “ultrasound” energy to the deep dermis to improve tone, and more significantly, to the lining of the musculature that creates a lifting much like a traditional facelift. This is a non surgical skin lifting and tightening treatment with no downtime, no needles, no lasers, and no anesthesia. This presentation shows many before and after photos of Ultherapy including “face and neck tightening” and upper brow lifting.

The results are apparent almost immediately but take 3 months to “mature” and improve; lasting 18-24 months, in most cases. Watch video of Dr. Bafitis discussing this procedure as he has it done on himself.

Dr. Stern states, “These are very serious issues for many women, and sadly in most cases not properly addressed by the majority of physicians. As a result some women actually suffer emotionally and avoid intimacy altogether.”

Dr. Stern has over 25 years of private practice experience and is one of the select few with advanced training and expertise in the fine art of cosmetic surgery of the female genitalia and now limits his practice exclusively to these procedures.

Dr. Stern has been a leader in this field from its inception and has pioneered most of the techniques you have read about in the lay and scientific media. He has consistently been a pioneer in innovative and reproducible techniques that bring dramatic, positive results to patients.

Dr. Harold Bafitis as Medical Director of the Plastic Surgery Institute of the Palm Beaches, Inc., and Bafitis Plastic Surgery has created a surgical/medical team that is second to none in assisting patients in realizing their aesthetic and reconstructive goals.

Each CoolSculpting procedure results in an average 25% reduction of fat in the treated area.

This technology freezes away stubborn fat. CoolSculpting gently targets and cools unwanted fat cells in the selected area to induce a noticeable, natural-looking reduction in fat bulges.

Unlike most other methods of fat reduction, CoolSculpting involves no needles, surgery, or downtime.  Patients often spend the one to two hours of procedure time reading, working on their laptops, or simply relaxing.

Results can be seen in as soon as three weeks following – just one treatment, with the best results occurring over the next two to four months. From just one treatment.  Learn more about this procedure.
