As promised - a little game to win a big discount on fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm. No purchase necessary. No commitment if you win and don't want to use it (though I'm not sure why you would want to play). No substitutions.


The winner of my little game will be entitled to 50% off regular price of each syringe of HA fillers such as Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus up two syringes. Regular price is $600. For all you math majors this translates to a savings of $300-600. Not bad for playing a silly game. 


You must be the 5th person who sends me an email who can correctly locate a picture of me. You've heard of "Where's Waldo"? Well this is "Where's Ronaldo"! I have hidden a picture of myself holding up boxes of Restylane and Juvederm. It is buried within my website. You must be able to find the photo, describe exactly where it is and be the 5th person to email me with the correct location. 

Have fun and happy hunting.

 I will be running a special price for fillers such as Restylane, Perlane, and Juvederm. It's a special game I'm playing. Anyone can play but you can only get the clues to the game from my Facebook page. So go to my Facebook and it a give a try.

 This blog discusses issues related to cost of plastic surgical procedures.

 Injectable fillers such as Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse and Sculptra are great to do in the summer. There is little to no down time and the cost is a fraction of surgical procedures. Fine and coarse lines, grooves, and general volume loss from aging can all be treated. The right filler needs to be matched with the problem and you're off to the races. 

 Taking a poll on the preferred treatment of facial wrinkles.

With everybody rushing about these days it's easy to forget to take care of the essentials. Protect your skin. Put on the sunscreen.  Make it part of your morning routine. It comes in lotions, creams, sprays and powders. You can get it in your make-up. It's easy to use but you gotta use it for it to work. Make sure you send it to camp with your kids. Teach them to use it early and that it's cool to have nice looking skin when they are older. Higher SPF is better to a point but even SPF of 15 is very good as long as you get it on your skin. The damaging ultraviolet rays from the sun, which you can't see, breaks down the collagen in your skin. It damages the cells in your skin and over time your skin looses it's smoothness and elasticity. Not to mention that there is a rise in skin cancer. 

I'm writing today to caution you about picking your facelift operation based on hype rather than sound judgement.  It all begins with picking the right doctor. Your doctor has to be able to listen to your concerns, be thorough when examining your face, and be honest with recommendations. I emphasize corrections that will keep you "looking like you". Sometimes this means doing more surgery than one anticipates. Other times it is doing less. Not everyone looks good after a facelift. I will often recommend against a facelift if I think it will leave someone with an un-natural look. So whether it is a Composite facelift, a Short Scar facelift, a vertical SMAS facelift, mid-face lift, fat grafting, browlift, cheek/chin implants, skin treatment, laser ....... and the list goes on, I will suggest the best procedures that will do the job. By going to a quality Plastic surgeon you will have all the different treatment options available to you.  

Dr. Ronald Schuster, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon will be attending a special "Ladies Night Out" to benefit the Susan Cohen Colon Cancer Foundation. I will be giving free consultations and recommendations for both surgical and non-surgical Plastic surgery. Follow this link to attend

Hope to see you there.

Liposuction of the neck is a fast and painless way to improve your appearance. The procedure takes about an hour and the results can be seen immediately. Bruising is mild and you can be back to work in 2 days. The recovery is very easy. I like you to wear a compression strap over soft cotton for the first two days. This is very comfortable and can be removed to shower. It really helps to reduce the bruising and swelling. Liposuction of the neck also has a low cost. The whole thing will cost less than $5000. The results will depend on the elasticity of your skin. The better the elasticity, the tighter the result. For a quick fix solution that will leave you looking thinner and younger consider liposuction of the neck.
