Dr. Eric P. Bachelor in Danville and Pleasanton, CA offers CoolSculpting as non-invasive alternative to liposuction

Pleasanton, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/21/2016 -- Dr. Eric P. Bachelor of Eastbay Aesthetic Surgery in Pleasanton and Danville, CA is helping patients in the Bay Area eliminate stubborn body fat without having to undergo major surgery or invasive procedures. With the use of CoolSculpting technology, Dr. Bachelor's patients can experience up to a 20 percent reduction of fat in the treated areas with a process that is completely painless.

CoolSculpting is one of the latest proven fat elimination processes available in the industry that uses the science of cryolipolysis with the proprietary Zeltiq System to essentially freeze fat cells to the point of elimination. The technology works on the surface of the skin to target only the fat cells beneath, causing no damage to the skin cells above or other healthy skin or tissue cells. Once the stubborn fat cells are frozen, the body naturally eliminates them and the patient experiences a visible reduction in the fat pockets that received treatment.

The CoolSculpting process Dr. Bachelor uses involves a specially designed cooling applicator that is applied to the area that the patient desires to eliminate the unwanted fat. This applicator cup uses gentle vacuum pressure to draw the tissue between the cooling panels, delivering precisely controlled cooling conditions that only target the fatty layers beneath the skin.

This new technology offers patients a myriad of advantages compared to other fat elimination methods like liposuction. With CoolSculpting, there are no needles, incisions, or anesthesia involved. During the treatment, patients can lie comfortably and are free to read a magazine, use their smartphones, or even take a nap. Absolutely no downtime is required after the procedure and patients can immediately resume normal activities after the treatment. Patients who undergo CoolSculpting typically receive treatment over a series of several weeks. Those most dramatic results occur over a period of two to four months.

The number of treatments needed varies for each patient depending on their desired outcomes and the type of fat pockets they are most concerned about. Dr. Bachelor offers consultations to new or existing patients who are interested in the CoolSculpting procedure. During this consultation, Dr. Bachelor can outline a specific treatment and pricing plan that will provide the most optimal results for each patient.

Pleasanton, CA surgeon explores what patients should know before scheduling a mammoplasty

Pleasanton, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 08/04/2015 -- Breast augmentation, or augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure performed by a plastic surgeon to increase or enhance a woman's breast size. Researching and becoming informed about the possible risks, implants types, surgeon experience, and what to expect during and after surgery are an integral part of the surgery process. The reasons a person may decide to undergo breast augmentation are endless, but regardless of the starting point, it's best to know what to expect before, during and after.

The two major implant materials used today are saline and silicone. Saline implants have a silicone outer shell filled during surgery with a sterile saltwater solution. They are the more cost effective solution, with a reputation for safety and a smaller incision site. Silicone implants are filled with an elastic silicone gel that closely mimics organic breast tissue in feeling. The surgeon will want to discuss the potential risks involved with the procedure and what you can expect in the following months after surgery. An experienced surgeon can address all of your concerns and guide you to choosing which type of implant is best for you.

Before deciding to have surgery, a patient needs to fully understand the choice they are about to make when having a breast augmentation. The body will continue to age and implants alone are unable to keep the breasts from sagging. Accordingly, the breasts will fluctuate in size and appearance due to any changes in weight so additional surgery could become a possibility in the future.

Prior to surgery, it might be necessary to have a mammogram so a baseline is established. If you take medications, the surgeon may ask you to temporarily stop them and have a driver bring you the day of surgery. Following surgery, wearing a sports bra might help support and position the breast implants to aid in the healing process. The key is to avoid aggressive activity for two weeks and get plenty of rest immediately after surgery so the body can completely recover.

The kind, respectful team at Dr. Eric P. Bachelor's office understand how personal the decision is to undergo breast augmentation and are thrilled to help people of all shapes and sizes throughout the process of changing their bodies to better reflect the people they'd like to see in the mirror.

Dr. Eric P. Bachelor Provides Facial Rejuvenation Surgery for Bay Area Men and Women

Pleasanton, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/21/2015 -- Dr. Eric P. Bachelor of Eastbay Aesthetic Surgery in Pleasanton and Danville, CA is helping women and men in the Bay Area feel more confident about their appearance with minimally invasive facelift surgery to address signs of aging. The facial rejuvenation surgery Dr. Bachelor offers helps correct deep lines and wrinkles, elevate sagging facial tissues and ultimately, helps patients look as young as they feel on the inside. Dr. Bachelor specializes in giving patients natural-looking results with their facelift surgery, with smoother and more youthful facial contours.

"My patients get the emotional benefit of looking more the way they feel or achieving an appearance that they had not been able to achieve in other ways," said Dr. Bachelor of Eastbay Aesthetic Surgery. "It makes them feel whole, it makes them feel better about themselves, and I think that is the main goal of plastic surgery in general."

Patients of Dr. Bachelor can opt for general anesthetic or local anesthetic with intravenous sedation during their procedure. The surgery requires only small incisions around the ears which extend into the hairline and become virtually unnoticeable when healed. These incisions allow Dr. Bachelor to elevate and tighten the skin down to the deep layers of tissue.

Typical recovery time for facelift surgery patients is approximately 7-10 days, during which time patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Minor swelling may persist for up to eight weeks, but most patients are able to fully enjoy their new, youthful appearance within several days.

Dr. Bachelor consults with each potential facelift surgery patient individually prior to their procedure to discuss their specific concerns and expectations for outcomes. He ensures that individuals are good candidates and in proper health for their procedure of choice.

In addition to facelift procedures, Dr. Bachelor also offers a wide range of other facial, breast, and body contouring procedures, as well as laser treatments for skin and vein treatments. He and his staff operate two office locations in both Pleasanton and Danville, and regularly treat patients throughout the greater San Francisco area.

EastBay Aesthetic Surgery offers clients a full selection of cutting-edge Botox and Dysport treatments at Bay Area practices

Pleasanton, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/18/2014 -- Dr. Eric P. Bachelor of EastBay Aesthetic Surgery cosmetic surgery practices in Danville and Pleasanton, California provides Bay Area and San Francisco area clients a full selection of Botox or Dysport treatments. Both Botox and Dysport are commonly used to treat wrinkles, frown lines, age lines and crow's feet, as well as to enhance the youthful look, feel and elasticity of the skin to create a vibrant, healthy appearance. Botox is a common non-invasive wrinkle fighter used by cosmetic surgeons around the globe, routinely used to treat frown lines, crow's feet and other age-related skin concerns. Dr. Bachelor and his team provide treatment and education for clients new to Botox and its alternatives. Botox provides well-documented results when correcting facial lines and wrinkles, neck bands, excessive sweating, migraine headaches, muscle spasms and more.

Botox is injected into strategic points on the forehead, erasing age lines for a 3-to-4-month duration, accomplished during a brief appointment with no downtime that can be completed on a lunch break. Dr. Bachelor uses a fine needle to inject Botox into facial muscles that normally contract, forming lines and wrinkles. Some clients need several injections for certain areas. Other non-surgical treatments like dermal fillers can be applied in the same procedure.

Dysport is best applied to those over 30 years of age with developing frown lines. These wrinkles occur on the forehead, between the eyes and slightly above the eyebrows. A common solution is a botulinum neurotoxin application, like Dysport. Dr. Bachelor injects Dysport into the tiny muscles that cause frown lines. The formula flattens out wrinkles for several months. This convenient, non-invasive, brief treatment is perfect for correcting frown lines, crow's feet and forehead wrinkles. Botulinum type A is the active ingredient in Dysport which temporarily paralyzes tiny forehead muscles that contract to create wrinkles in the overlaying skin. The formula blocks neurotransmitters that cause these muscles to contract. Prior to injection, the face is cleaned with an antiseptic and a topical numbing cream is applied, if needed, to enhance comfort.

Similar to Botox, a fine needle is used to inject Dysport into target areas. Treatment is normally complete within 30 minutes, with results most evident after 3-5 days. Some redness and swelling may occur but clients may return to normal activity following treatment. Over-the-counter pain medication can be used if discomfort persists, but it's crucial to protect the treated area from the sun for the first few weeks. Results generally last for 3-6 months.
