No two noses are the same, which means no two nose jobs are exactly the same. To illustrate this, we’ve improved our rhinoplasty page to include descriptions of all the different deformities that can be corrected by a New Jersey rhinoplasty at the Parker Center.

Some people want to fix their crooked nose, some want to slim the width, fix symmetry, remove bumps, shorten the length, or even fixed a botched nose job. New Jersey patients can now compare these issues to their own while looking at before and after pictures for reference.

Recently, the NY Times published an article by Laura Holson titled, “A Little Too Ready for Her Close-Up,” which spurned a media conversation about Hollywood’s sudden about face when it comes to plastic surgery. Casting directors have been sending away actors who have obviously had plastic surgery.

“Frankly, I’m surprised by this conversation,” says Dr. Parker. “I would have thought something like this would have occurred years ago.” It looks like Hollywood is finally catching on to what the Parker Center knew along. For years, the two main goals here have been natural-looking results and a speedy and painless recovery. Dr. Parker calls this “plastic surgery common sense.”

It looks like our site is making the rounds and getting noticed! This time we got a shout-out from Dr. Jeffrey Donaldson on their blog about patient education in plastic surgery practices. Like us, they believe that the more a potential patient knows about their cosmetic surgery procedure, the better informed they will be which will lead to a more positive experience and results!

Here is a preview:

We use many of the same tools that Dr. Parker uses on his New Jersey plastic surgery Website for The Parker Center. This include video and written testimonials, procedural information and staff background and credentials. All of these tools are instrumental in not only educating potential patients, but also in choosing the right facility and surgeon.

Due to their similar outlook on how their practices should run, Dr. Zweibel featured a post written by Dr. Parker on his site’s blog. It’s regarding our website and how thorough and educational it can be for patients considering plastic surgery.

Here is a preview:

Whether you’re thinking about boosting your breasts, trimming your belly, reshaping your facial features or full body contouring, plastic surgery has something to offer. A simple surgical procedure can get you the New You that you’ve always dreamed of. The first step is to do your homework and get educated.

Be sure to check out this blog written by Premier Plastic Surgery about our site leading the way in patient education! As they say, the test factor in making a plastic surgery operation a success is the expectations of the patient. We work hard to make our site as informative as possible, and it looks like others are noticing as well!

As a New Jersey plastic surgeon, Dr. Parker, places a lot of emphasis on patient education and with our fee estimate page, you can enhance your knowledge even further. You’d be hard-pressed to find other plastic surgery websites that have their full list of estimates posted right there for all to see. We do this because the education factor that comes along with it is improved tremendously. “We’re doing this because we’ve heard fromour patients what a wonderful educational source our website has been to them” says Dr. Parker. “They are learning about the different procedures, understanding how we pamper our patients, looking at before and after pictures and reading testimonials from other patients.Adding a fee estimate page enhances their knowledge even more.”

The Parker Center and Dr. Paul M. Parker have been featured in a press release discussing the value of informational web sites.This release encourages potential patients to use plastic surgery websites such as www.parkercenter.net to educate and inform themselves before making any decisions on a plastic surgery procedures.

The Parker Center notes in the release that they make it a priority to keep their site up-to-date on the latest information for procedures and techniques to help educate patients around the country including New Jersey.Plastic surgery is a big decision and Parker Center is there to guide potential patients.

New Jersey breast reduction for men is one of the top 5 cosmetic procedures performed for men at the Parker Center. The condition of enlarged breasts in men is called gynecomastia. Because of the feminine appearance of the breasts, this is a very embarrassing and socially debilitating condition particularly because it presents itself as a young boy grows into a teen. While many pursue correction of the problem in their teens and early twenties, Dr. Paul M. Parker, Medical Director of the Parker Center for Plastic Surgery has treated men of all ages, including those into their 60’s with gynecomastia.

Democratic leaders in the Senate unveiled their proposal for overhauling the health care system, which includes a new 5% tax on elective cosmetic procedures. Senate Democrats argue that the tax, which was a surprise addition to the sweeping 2,074-page bill, will generate $5.8 billion over the next 10 years to be put towards the bill’s estimated $849 billion price tag. However, this tax as discriminatory, arbitrary and ineffective.

In 2007, New Jersey plastic surgeon, Dr. Paul M. Parker introduced a new tummy tuck technique called lipoabdominoplasty to his patients. At a conference in Florida several weeks earlier, one plastic surgeon from Brazil and one from France demonstrated their variations of this innovative technique. Dr. Parker combined what he liked from each technique to create his version of lipoabdominoplasty New Jersey and ran with the idea.

“It answered things that we weren’t doing with traditional tummy tucks,” he says. He then points out what makes this procedure better than the traditional New Jersey tummy tuck and his own enhancements to the original technique.
