Dr. Kyle R. Song, MD: Giving Nature a Hand
Jennifer Niskanen
Our relationship with our bodies is deeply personal, so it’s important to find a plastic surgeon that understands the value of personalized attention with supportive and compassionate care. Dr. Kyle Song (http://www.songplasticsurgery.com) is an Orange County leader for both plastic and reconstructive surgeries, offering cosmetic procedures for the face, body and breasts, as well as skin care. Patient satisfaction is the driving force behind his business at Song Plastic Surgery in Irvine, CA, pushing him to deliver long-lasting, natural results.
Dr. Song’s passion for his work has been recognized in his presentations at regional, national and international venues, and even early in his career he has been awarded accordingly, including the Francis W. Noel award for scholarly activity during residency, and as runner-up for the resident research competition at the California Society of Plastic Surgeons annual meeting in 2011. Because Dr. Song is himself a younger doctor, he often attracts a younger clientele, since his education is more recent, and he fully understands what they are looking for.
Dieting and exercise can only do so much to fight nature. Dr. Song can walk patients through different breast enhancement techniques or perform what’s called a “Mommy Makeover” that can reset the anatomical and physiological changes that come with age, pregnancy and nursing. Breast augmentation, itself, has become increasingly popular. In fact, there were almost 300,000 breast augmentation cases in 2011, in the United States, which moved it to the top of the charts for plastic surgery procedures across the country.
There are various breast implant types and sizes including subtle, small implants to improve shape and symmetry. Actually, when it comes to saline and silicone implants, there are literally thousands of choices, and they all require different incision locations for their placement, be that above or below the muscle, so consultation with a knowledgeable and compassionate doctor is crucial for patients to make the best decision. Dr. Song also uses visual software to see exactly how new implants will look for each patient, which can help the patient to choose the best option for them.
Motherhood definitely brings with it a multitude of changes both psychological and physical, but it’s important for women to think about themselves too, so they can be at their best as caregivers. Weight reduction and body contouring procedures are a crucial part of Dr. Song’s services, for women at any life stage, including tummy tucks and liposuction, as well as lifts of the butt, breasts, thighs, arms and the whole body. A “Mommy Makeover” combines reshaping of the breasts with tummy tuck surgery and liposuction to revitalize the entre body. Since each woman’s body is different, there is no one-size-fits-all surgery solution, but stretched abdominal muscles, a sagging or protruding belly, stretch marks, love handles, and loss of breast tissue can all be addressed under Dr. Song’s care.
We tend to think of the front of our bodies more often, but it’s not the only thing to consider when it comes to a woman’s shape and what makes it attractive, although of course that is a very individual thing too. Dr. Song performs Brazilian Butt Lifts to deal with sagging skin and lots of volume there as well, which can be especially pronounced after weight loss. Fat can be harvested during a tummy tuck or buttocks lift and deposited to the upper part of the butt for a firmer more attractive shape.
A patient’s confidence and identity are often deeply connected to how attractive they think they look. Breast lifts, reductions, augmentation and body surgery can bring back a more positive body-image or give them to figure that they’ve always dreamed of. This is, of course, even more important when it comes to breast reconstruction for women who are missing part or all of a breast because of cancer, trauma or genetics.
Conducting clinical research is another of Dr. Song’s interests, and he has been published in several peer-reviewed periodicals. His contributions to plastic surgery have been as extensive as his travels, as he has brought reconstructive surgical services to impoverished children around the world, such as cleft lip and cleft palate repair in Egypt and reconstructive surgery to the victims of the Hermosillo Daycare fire in Tijuana, Mexico.
If there’s a particular part of your body that you find yourself concerned about, and you’re not totally happy with, Dr. Song can help you do something about it, be that a cosmetic, plastic surgery, or a noninvasive med-spa procedure. Sometimes, we have to give nature a hand because looking are best at any age is something that all men and women want, so they can feel confident and great about themselves.
