Having lean, long legs is a common desire among women and while there is nothing that can be done to lengthen the legs (short of wearing high heels) the leanness of the legs is something that can be accomplished. Many women achieve the leaner legs they desire through exercise and diet. For those who’ve lost a significant amount of weight, however, the lean may be achieved, but is hidden by excess, loose, hanging skin that was unable to adjust to the weight loss due to loss of elasticity. For other women, the lean may be more difficult to impossible to achieve through diet and exercise alone due to genetic pre-disposition. For either of these cases, a Long Island Thighplasty may be the best option for creating the leaner legs desired.

Thighplasty, or Thigh Lift surgery, is a procedure in which excess skin is removed from the upper portion of the legs. In cases in which excess fat also needs to be removed, Liposuction may be done in conjunction with the Thigh Lift procedure. It is common for other body contouring procedures to be performed with a Thigh Lift, as well, such as a Buttock Lift or Tummy Tuck. If you are unhappy with your thighs, contact our office to schedule your confidential consultation with Dr. Greenberg to find out if a Thigh Lift surgery may be right for you.

Excessively protruding ears can be a source of pain and embarrassment from childhood on. Usually performed under local anesthetic, an otoplasty consists of repositioning the ears through an incision in the back. Depending on your needs, your cartilage may also be resculpted or removed to create a more sleek appearance, orDr. Greenberg can use stitches to form the ear cartilage into a more pleasing position. At our Long Island practice, we provide immediate results and most likely a rapid return to your normal activities.

Ear surgery or otoplasty can typically be performed as soon as the ears have stopped growing, usually around age four. Why wait for years of negative attention and difficulty? Otoplasty is an extraordinarily effective procedure which can have the ultimate impact on a child’s or adult’s self-confidence. Contact us today for more information

There are many men and women who are dissatisfied with their mid-section for various reasons. Factors such as genetics, aging, dramatic weight loss, and pregnancy often play a role in creating undesirable waistlines. For those with excessive sagging skin in the mid-section, or loose and/or separated abdominal muscles, a Long Island Abdominoplasty may be the best way to restore youth and improve body contour to the abdomen.

Just as there are different factors which contribute to dissatisfaction of the abdominal region, there are a couple different Tummy Tuck techniques designed to meet the individual needs of each patient, some of which are more invasive than others depending on the amount of treatment needed. Likewise, a Tummy Tuck alone may not be enough to create the desired results and other body contouring procedures are often used in conjunction with it such as Liposuction to remove any excess fat deposits, Thigh and Buttock Lift or Breast Lift.

Contact our office today to schedule your consultation with Dr. Greenberg to find out if Abdominoplasty may be right for you.

While I always am a big advocate of eating healthy and I try to stay away from sweets I must admit I was happy when I saw an article on Cosmopolitan.com that gave reasons why you should eat dessert for breakfast. Yes, this even included cookies and chocolate! They say it works because our metabolism is most active in the morning. Eating dessert at night after dinner isn’t ideal because the metabolism is slowing down.

For more details see the article below:

Why You Should Eat Dessert for Breakfast

If you’re looking to firm up, skipping dessert is probably on your must-do list along with regularly hitting the gym. But new research found the sweet stuff can actually help you get fit.

By Korin Miller

According to a study from Tel Aviv University, eating dessert as part of a 600-calorie breakfast that includes proteins and carbs can help people lose weight-and keep it off. And yup, we’re totally talking about ending breakfast with a piece of chocolate.

Over the course of a 32-week study, scientists found that people who had dessert-cookies, cake, or chocolate-with their breakfast lost an average of 40 pounds more than people who avoided sweets…and they didn’t gain the weight back.

Here’s why they say it works: In the a.m., your body’s metabolism is the most active. At this time, we’re better able to burn off the calories during the day as opposed to, say, having some ice cream after dinner when your metabolism is slowing down to prepare for sleep.

Scientists also said that it’s not good to cut out sweets entirely when you want to firm up because it can create a psychological addiction to them in the long run and cause you to crave them 24/7.

Obviously, you wouldn’t want to make it a habit to have a massive piece of cake every morning, but ending breakfast with a few Hershey’s kisses or a cup of hot chocolate could have the same effect.
