Seasons of Beauty: Planning Your Care to Match The Season

When is it best to do which procedure in plastic surgery?  Are there rules or is it just about preference and lifestyle?  Park Avenue plastic surgeon, Dr. Lawrence Bass explains which principles come into play when selecting a time of year for a given plastic surgery procedure.  He also shares what procedures people are most likely to do in a given season.  Facelift in summer or winter?  Body contouring with liposuction or with non-surgical technologies like CoolSculpting and SculpSure, when is best and why?  Laser resurfacing (CO2 and Erbium:YAG laser peels) and  laser pigment treatments are best in non-sunny times of year.  But are there laser and energy based treatments that are OK in the summer?  The details will help you plan when a treatment might fit into your busy schedule or how to lay out your beauty plan for safety and convenience during the course of a year.
