			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Celebrities &amp; Exoderm the Non Surgical Face Lift &#8211; Los Angeles<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>How to look younger without looking unnatural…</strong></p>
<p>What if celebrities knew about a 1 time procedure that could take 10-15 years off their  face without the “windswept” unnatural appearance? A procedure that not only erases wrinkles and lines and sun damage, but also rebuilds collagen, without cutting, pulling or scaring.</p>
<p>Dr. Thomas&#8217; office knows of such a procedure. After undergoing this procedure many of Dr. Thomas&#8217; patients look their natural selves only younger. This procedure is called Exoderm and Dr. Thomas has been performing it for over 11 years.</p>
<p>Many news sources mock or make fun off bad plastic surgery. I tend to agree that many celebrities and people go over board with fillers and Botox and Face Lifts. Remember plastic surgery is like anything else. Everything in moderation and a little goes a long way.</p>
<p>I think many a celebrity and regular folks who want to look younger, have nicer skin and do not want to look &#8220;done&#8221; would benefit from this non-surgical Exoderm procedure.</p>
<p>With many of the 50 – 70 some things out there who are getting face lifts and changing their natural looks with over doing fillers and Botox, isn’t it time that there is an alternative procedure?</p>
<p>_____________________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Let’s look at some aging celebrities and see how Exoderm could have or can benefit them:</strong></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1355 alignnone" title="Clint Eastwood 71" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Clint-Eastwood-71.jpg" alt="Sun Damage, Wrinkles &amp; Sagging Skin" width="359" height="256" /></p>
<p>Klint Easwood &#8211; Age: 70&#8217;s</p>
<p>Here is a picture of Klint Eastwood. In his aged picture, Klint has age spots, sun damage, deep wrinkles, fine lines and loss of collagen. Exoderm can address every single one of those aging issues.</p>
<p><em>See the photos below of actual Exoderm patients that had similar aging issues as Klint</em><em>. Try to envision what Exoderm could do for Klint.</em></p>
<p><strong>Exoderm erases Sun Damage &amp; Age Spots </strong></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1356 alignnone" title="Exoderm Sun Damge Before" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Exoderm0033.jpg" alt="Exoderm Sun Damge Before" width="216" height="135" /><img class="size-full wp-image-1357 alignnone" title="Sun Damage &amp; Age spots After" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Exoderm0034.jpg" alt="Sun Damage &amp; Age spots After" width="192" height="135" /></p>
<p><strong>Exoderm erases deep Wrinkles &amp; Fine Lines &amp; builds Collagen<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1358 alignnone" title="Deep Wrinkles &amp; Fine Lines" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scan0004.jpg" alt="Deep Wrinkles &amp; Fine Lines" width="186" height="240" /><img class="size-full wp-image-1359 alignnone" title="Deep Wrinkles &amp; Fine Lines" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scan0003.jpg" alt="Deep Wrinkles &amp; Fine Lines" width="177" height="239" /></p>
<p>_____________________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Our Next Celebrity is Susan Sarandon</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong><img class="size-full wp-image-1360 alignnone" title="Susan Sarandon 61" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Susan-Sarandon-61.jpg" alt="Susan Sarandon - Age 60's" width="353" height="200" /></strong></p>
<p>Susan is aging beautifully. It looks like she has not done a thing to her face. For Susan Exoderm will just lift the sagging jowls, get rid of the crows feet around her eyes and improve her overall skin tone. She probably would not have to wear as much makeup.</p>
<p><em>Let&#8217;s take a look at some Patients who have had Exoderm</em> to address similar aging issues as Susan.</p>
<p><strong>Exoderm lifts Sagging cheeks &amp; Jowls</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1361" title="Saggin Jowls" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scan0007.jpg" alt="Saggin Jowls" width="195" height="107" /><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1362" title="Saggin Jowls &amp; Cheek" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scan0008.jpg" alt="Saggin Jowls &amp; Cheek" width="186" height="107" /></p>
<p><strong>Exoderm erases Crows Feet around the Eyes</strong></p>

<p><strong>Exoderm will improve skin tone clarity</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1365" title="Skin Clarity" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Skin-Clarity.jpg" alt="Skin Clarity" width="364" height="256" /></p>
<p>_____________________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Let&#8217;s look at the next celebrity Susan Lang</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1366" title="Susan Lang 59" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Susan-Lang-59.jpg" alt="Susan Lang 59" width="394" height="198" /></p>
<p>Susan Lang is a very attractive women. Exoderm can help improve her aging skin, loss of collagen, sagging eyelids and deep folds.</p>
<p><em>Let&#8217;s take a look at some Patients who have had Exoderm</em> to address similar aging issues as Susan Lang.</p>
<p><strong>Exoderm will reverse loss of Collagen and Deep Folds</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1367" title="with arrows" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/with-arrows.jpg" alt="with arrows" width="431" height="143" /></p>
<p><strong>Exoderm will Improve Sagging </strong><strong>Eyelids</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1369" title="eyelids before &amp; after_edited-1" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/eyelids-before-after_edited-11.jpg" alt="eyelids before &amp; after_edited-1" width="428" height="122" /></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>___________________________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Here are some celebrities who have undergone Plastic Surgery for Aging issues who may of benefited from a more natural Procedure like Exoderm.</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1370" title="joan van ark_edited-1" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/joan-van-ark_edited-1.jpg" alt="joan van ark_edited-1" width="396" height="283" /></p>
<p>Many a time celebrities over fill lips and chins with fillers because there is nothing out there like Exoderm that improves lines and builds collagen around the lips and chin area.</p>
<p><em>Let&#8217;s look at some Exoderm Patients that have had significant improvement with  the &#8220;troubled&#8221; mouth area.</em></p>
<p><strong>Exoderm will build collagen and improve lines and wrinkles around the mouth &amp; chin &amp; cheeks without injections or Botox.</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1371" title="mouth and chin" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/mouth-and-chin.jpg" alt="mouth and chin" width="358" height="162" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1378" title="mouth before &amp; after" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/mouth-before-after.jpg" alt="mouth before &amp; after" width="361" height="103" /></p>
<p>_____________________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Let&#8217;s look at the next celebrity Kenny Rogers</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1383" title="Kenny Rogers 69" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Kenny-Rogers-691.jpg" alt="Kenny Rogers 69" width="392" height="164" /></strong></p>
<p>Dr. Thomas speculates that Mr. Rogers has had a brow lift and face lift. He looks very different than his younger picture. Does he look good different or bad different? That&#8217;s for you to decide.</p>
<p><em>Let&#8217;s look at an Exoderm patient who has had Exoderm for similar aging issues as Kenny Rodgers.</em></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1382" title="overall man" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/overall-man1.jpg" alt="overall man" width="408" height="288" /></p>
<p>This patient looks younger, more refreshed and most importantly he looks natural.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><strong>Plastic Surgery Public Service Announcement</strong> &#8211; How to Avoid Botched Plastic Surgery</h2>
<h3>Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery Surgeon, Ivan Thomas M.D., releases this Public Service Announcement to help Plastic Surgery Patients Avoid Botched Plastic Surgery</h3>
<p>The Holiday Season is a time when many patients undergo Plastic Surgery procedures. The reasons are due to more time off work, kids are not in school and the household budget is coming to a close and discretionary income can be more freely spent. We want you to know of recent developments that our offices have discovered through speaking with many of our patients, their family members and of our own observations. It&#8217;s important that if you choose to have a procedure done this Holiday Season you are aware of how to choose a surgeon and what pitfalls to avoid.</p>
<p><strong>“DEALERSHIP” PRICING</strong></p>

<p>Time and time again you hear advertising on the radio for Tummy Tucks and Breast Augmentations for nominal fees. Fees are advertised as pricing ending in <strong><em>“$9</em>9”</strong> or <strong><em>“$95”</em></strong>.  This type of pricing is structured to be enticing. In actuality this is the type of pricing you would find at a car dealership. When choosing medical procedures you want to look for practices that base their pricing on an individual’s needs, time in surgery, years of experience and proper qualifications.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>BOTCHED PLASTIC SURGERY ON THE RISE</strong></p>
<p>The rate of botched surgery is increasing each year. As cosmetic surgeries are becoming more socially acceptable, more MD’s are practicing cosmetic surgery. Inadvertently you will now find general surgeons and practitioners performing plastic surgery procedures with little or no formal training and proper certifications. You should always choose a plastic surgeon who is Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).</p>
<p><strong>SURGERY SHORTCUTS</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_1057" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><strong><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-1057" title="Botched Plastic Surgery" src="http://www.ivanthomasmdblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Implants-with-Lift21-300x204.jpg" alt="Stretched Scars from the Donut Lift" width="300" height="204" /></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Stretched Scars that will not heal from &quot;Donut&quot; Lift</p></div>

</tbody>
</table>
<p>Shortcuts may result in irreversible financial and physical losses. Be aware of shortcut procedures that are passing trends and make unrealistic promises. We have seen patients who were made unattainable promises such as: Breast Lifts with out scaring (Donut Lift, Beneli <a title="Good Plastic Surgery Photos" href="http://www.ivanthomasmd.com/proc_face_nose.asp" target="_blank">Mastopexy</a>), non-invasive Face Lifts that take less time to perform, shorter healing time with long lasting results. Other practices will prey on overweight patients and will perform Tummy Tuck or Liposuction on a patient without having them take the proper measures for weight loss. Without the proper weight loss Liposuction and Tummy Tuck will produce less than desirable results.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“TRICK” PHOTOGRAPHY</strong></p>
<p>Inconsistencies in <a title="Good Plastic Surgery Photos" href="http://www.ivanthomasmd.com/thom_List.asp?Type=Proc&amp;Data=Tummy_Tuck&amp;sort=name&amp;cat=&amp;Page=3" target="_blank">photography</a> on a Dr.’s website may lead many patients to believe that the work produced is accurate and esthetically pleasing. The trained eye knows what to look for.</p>
<p><strong>Distance</strong> – The distance between the before and after can be farther apart tricking the eye to think the patient looks smaller. <strong>Lighting</strong> – Brighter lighting after shots can portray better results and may not show irregularities. <strong>Arms Up &amp; Down</strong> – Patients may have their arms up for the after picture making Breast Lifts &amp; Tummy Tucks appear better.</p>
<p><strong>QUALITY, EXPERIENCE &amp; PRICE</strong></p>
<p>Dr. Thomas cares about his patients and wants you to get the best results possible for your one and only face &amp; body. No matter the fee you can be confident that you will love your results and receive only the best of medical care from Dr. Thomas and his staff. To inquire about our newly reduced fee schedule, we urge you to contact our staff for support. If you did happen to choose another physician we hope you are 100% satisfied with your results and wish you all the best.</p>

<p>While shows like “Dr. 90210” document real life stories of patients from the consultation stage, surgery day, and post op, shows like these portray plastic surgery as a &#8220;quick fix&#8221;, when in reality, the process of plastic surgery must be careful and well thought out. Especially when it comes to choosing a plastic surgeon. Many of the surgeons on Television are not board certified plastic surgeons in Los Angeles. When choosing a plastic surgeon you want a surgeon to be board certified with the <a href="www.abps.org" target="_blank">American Board of Plastic Surgeons</a> (ABPS) and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS).</p>
<p>Plastic surgery can definitely enhance and refine your appearance and get rid of long lingering insecurities, but cannot be thought of as magic, as is portrayed in many reality shows today. Creating unhealthy, and unrealistic expectations of plastic surgery, patients are not grasping the idea that plastic surgery is real surgery, with real benefits, alternative results, and risks. Individual patients&#8217; features are unique and influence the results of plastic surgery, making it impossible to achieve “Angelina Jolie’s nose” or “Scarlet Johansson’s breasts”, as many surgeons in reality TV shows promise. Patients should be wary of surgeons who claim they can make a person look like someone else. Patients must realize that surgeons are real people without magic wands, but medical training.</p>

<p>These TV programs are pure entertainment and when a program is about entertainment, drama and ratings, being informative and educational can be a real drag. Reality-based shows about plastic surgery have to cut out the “boring” stuff, yet it is the “boring” stuff that can be the most informative and educational with a topic like plastic surgery. While these shows can give you some insight into the rewards of plastic surgery, it is important to get the information you need from a certified plastic surgeon, like Dr. Ivan Thomas. He will make sure that his patient’s expectations are realistic, that the procedures will benefit them, and that they are ready to undergo such a treatment. You can schedule a <a href="http://www.ivanthomasmd.com/req_consultation.asp">free consultation</a> to learn about what Dr. Thomas can do to enhance and refine your appearance, while giving you the information you need to have a safe and rewarding plastic surgery experience.</p>

<h2>Otoplasty, Botox, Blepharoplasty, <a title="Before &amp; After of Rhinoplasty" href="http://www.ivanthomasmd.com/thom_List.asp?type=Proc&amp;data=Rhinoplasty&amp;Cat=" target="_blank">Rhinoplasty </a>and more great Plastic Surgery for the Face.</h2>
<h3>What are you talking about?</h3>
<p>You may not realize it but your body can tell someone so much about you. Whether we are interested, confident, poised, healthy, strong, young or old. Sometimes many of these body signals are detected at subconscious levels.</p>
<h2>Beyond Words</h2>
<p>Besides observing gross body postures and movements, the eyes can detect tiny changes in the bodies of others. Research in laboratories has shown that some of these slight changes are detected at the subconscious level. Here are some of the subtle changes the subconscious can detect.</p>
<p><strong>* Changes in skin tone and texture due to blood flow changes when emotions fluctuate.<br />
* Changes in eye pupil size as interest peaks and wanes.<br />
* Tensioning and release of tiny muscles in the face and scalp from emotional changes.<br />
* Eye angle changes (even at a distance) as one diverts attention away or on something.<br />
* The precision timing of eye contact indicating interest, disinterest, or intimidation.</strong></p>
<h2>What do my ears &amp; nose tell others about me</h2>
<p>An unconscious cue to recognize youth in is the size of ears compared to the size of eyes.<br />
The ears and nose continue to grow constantly as we age but the eye size remains nearly the same throughout life.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" style="margin: 5px;" src="http://www.learnbodylanguage.org/ear.jpg" alt="Young Ear" width="125" height="144" />Women throughout history have also taken advantage of this fact and made themselves look younger by using makeup to increase the apparent size of their eyes. Surgery can change the nose (Rhinoplasty) and ears (Otoplasty) to remove a decade or two.</p>
<p><img class="alignright" style="margin: 5px;" src="http://www.learnbodylanguage.org/ear95.jpg" alt="Older Ear" width="140" height="150" /></p>
<p>At the right is a woman with her 95 year old ears. Compare her ear size with the much younger woman above.</p>
<p>Older woman who wish to appear as young as possible may want to wear their hair long to cover their ears! Men on the other hand can have otoplasty performed, which can change the projection (how far they stick out) of the ears but not the length. There are surgeries than can reduce the size of the earlobe. Dr. Thomas performs both ear projection and earlobe repair surgeries. <a href="http://www.ivanthomasmd.com/thom_List.asp?type=Proc&amp;data=Ear_Surgery&amp;Cat="></a></p>
<h2>Wise Eyes</h2>
<p>You heard the saying &#8220;The nose, knows&#8221;. Well what about the eyes? They can see and sense things too. Since the eyes are our most powerful body language message transmitters, here are some general rules about looking into the eyes of another person for longer periods of time.</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s okay to stare for long period of time when you:</strong></p>
<p>* Like or love a person.<br />
* Are far apart and trying to improve communication.<br />
* Are deeply interested in what they are saying.<br />
* Know they are extroverted and like being close.<br />
* Are expecting an answer or response from someone.<br />
* Are trying to dominate and intimidate someone.</p>
<h2>Tired Eyes</h2>
<p>Many people suffer from tired, puffy or mad looking eyes. Tired eyes can project to others that you don&#8217;t want to be bothered or that you may be upset. Has anyone ever asked you if you were tired or mad when you weren&#8217;t? Tired looking eyes can be caused from droopy upper eyelids, large bags under the eyes, and/or hollow pockets under the eyes. Scowling or squinting brows can project the image of being frustrated or angry. All these aging eye issues can be addressed through some minimally invasive procedures that take less than one hour to perform.</p>
