“I am absolutely committed to not only sharing my expertise but also to eliciting new information, techniques, and trends from other top surgeons around the world to keep the most current, and effective, treatments at the forefront of our practice,†says Dr. Sullivan. “Perfecting the art and science of cosmetic plastic surgery is our goal. We are always trying to bring back the latest ideas and successful, proven treatments to our patients.â€
During his panel on browlifting, Dr. Sullivan says he hopes to share his unique approach to performing the procedure, in which he tries to achieve an artistically enhance appearance by taking away the “tired look†from their eyes without causing the patient to look “done-up.†Various points of his presentation include:
- Use of BOTOX® and Dysport® to complement a surgical procedure
- Fat injections and non-surgical treatments and their support of the rejuvenation process
- Long-term follow up results and how to keep patients looking fresh over the years
- Dr. Sullivan’s experience with over 500 brow lift patients
As he prepares for the upcoming lecture, Dr. Sullivan says is eager to take part in such a large gathering of distinguished leaders in cosmetic surgery. Regardless of whether he is discussing the brow lift, facelift, or some other aesthetic procedure, he says actively educating others has always been a top priority at his practice, and one he hopes to pursue throughout the entirety of his career.
“It is imperative that we update and teach other plastic surgeons about the advances we have made in brow lifting and forehead rejuvenation,†he says. “Our special expertise is in giving patients a natural well rested appearance rather than the surprised or startled appearance that so many patients associate with brow lifting.”
