Our Docs Made The Cover of Surgical Health


Cardinal Health, leading manufacturer of medical and surgical products, chose the doctors of Miami Plastic Surgery, to appear on the cover of the winter issue of Surgical Focus, their quarterly publication.

Check out a couple of highlights from the article:

Miami Plastic Surgery takes pride in the diverse population they serve. Clientele have flown-in from across the United States, Caribbean, South America, and Europe. The practice sees approximately three-hundred patients and performs twenty-five to thirty procedures a week. Dr. Kelly attributes much of this success to their focus on the patient. He states, “We’ve been stressing the importance of taking care of patients from day one. We want a patient to have a Neiman-Marcus/Nordstrom experience and know they are going to be taken care of. That helps distinguish us from our competition.”
  

Trustworthiness is something Miami Plastic Surgery takes pride in. “Doing the right thing and motivated by the right purpose. If someone comes in and wants something they don’t need, you have to be willing to say no. It’s all about results in plastic surgery. If you don’t get good results, you aren’t going to have a good practice,” states Dr. Wolf. Dr. Kelly elaborates, “We always want to be credible. We believe in what we’re doing and stand by what we do. Techniques come and go. We’ve seen twenty different devices and twenty different techniques. We avoid jumping on the bandwagon in the first six months. Our patients know that if we are doing it, it must be good.”

2013 Skincare Resolutions



Even the most beauty-wise woman still occasionally sleeps in her makeup, skimps on sunscreen, or forgets to make a yearly appointment to see a skin doctor. We're know we're guilty!

With the new year just a few weeks away, now's the time to make a pact with your skin. We asked some of our staff..
"What's your skincare resolution for the new year?"
"My resolution is to remember to apply my anti-aging face cream at night,  and not just care about my LATISSE. What's the point of long lashes without a glowing face to match?" 
- Ligia Perez, Patient Coordinator

"Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!" - Ellen Frank, Patient Coordinator

"Start applying eye cream. I'm turning 30 in 2013 but need to make sure I still look like I'm in my 20's! Prevention really is key."  - Ronnie Moro, Director of Marketing

"I need to be more consistent with my NIA24 Exfoliating Scrub. I'm supposed to be using it twice a week, but always forget!" -Ivette Oliva, Patient Coordinator
 
What's your 2013 Skincare Resolution?
