  1. Lending Club
  2. Lending USA
  3. United Medical Credit

The applications are easy to fill out and are available online through our markbisharamd.com website.
If getting loans is not something your looking into doing most of us have savings accounts or 401k and if you don’t yet maybe its something you want to look in to as it will get you closer to getting your desired procedure.
Credit cards are another option as many tend to offer no interest for a certain amount of months. It would make it easier for you to pay off with out having to worry about paying extra on interest.
Family or friends! Although sometimes we can be very doubtful to whether you don’t think family or friends would help out for these kind of procedures, think again! Theres been many instances where family or friend are willing to finance the procedure as long as you stay committed to making the payments on time.
Think about it! Don’t let financing take you away from getting your dreamed results. The options are out there its a matter of you taking charge!

FACELIFT 411

BEFORE

AFTER

 

 


What is a Facelift?


A facelift purpose is to remove excess skin and tighten the underlying tissues and muscles on the face and neck. Facelifts are also used to correct any sagging in the face and those annoying hard to get rid off double chins. If you are experiencing any of the above then Dr. Mark Bishara at The Paragon Plastic Surgery and Med Spa is the surgeon you want to see!

What are facelift steps?


Ok so you’ve met with Dr. Mark Bishara and now its time to get things done. The incisions that will be made depend on the area that needs the change. After the incisions have been made there will be various degrees of “undermining” performed on the skin as the deep layers of your skin get lifted. What is undermining? Undermining is the separation of the overlying skin of the face and neck to the muscles and deep tissues of the skin. Soon after your skin will be raised from the temples, cheeks and neck and lifted and reposition. Any excess skin and fat will then be removed. The skin will then redrape over the new underlying structure and close with stitches.  You will then be wrapped with padded dressing.

How long will it take to recover?

Walking and light activities can be resumed 3 to 7 days after surgery. Avoid anything that puts pressure on your face such as lifting, bending, and straining for 7 to 14 days.  Try to suppress any forceful coughing or sneezing for 2 weeks. Avoid aerobic or heavy exercise for at least 3 weeks following surgery. Some swelling and bruising will develop and is minimized by resting in an elevated position. Rest and sleep in a reclining position with your head elevated 45 degrees for at least 2 weeks after surgery. You can resume make up after stitches have been removed. Scarring can be virtually invisible behind the ear, as incisions are usually made in hidden areas where the scars will look like small wrinkles.

What to expect?- BREAST AUGMENTATION

 
 

BEFORE

AFTER

What To Expect From Procedure

Consulting with an awesome doctor like Dr. Mark Bishara is the first thing you want to do.Although you might have an idea on what you?d like to look like after its also good to ask Dr. Mark Bishara for his recommendations. At your consultation at the Paragon Plastic Surgery and Med Spa we use 3d imaging to determine what is best for you, from sizes and implant types. Implants come in forms of saline and silicone. After choosing between silicone and saline you will then choose size and form. Dr. Mark Bishara will then recommend where to place the implant, if below or above the muscle.
 

DAY OF THE PROCEDURE

Breast Augmentation is an outpatient procedure. It can take between one and two hours. On the day of your breast augmentation Dr. Mark Bishara will go over the surgical procedure again. An iv will get started and you will be placed under general anesthesia.
 

DURING THE PROCEDURE

After being put under general anesthesia, Dr. Mark Bishara will begin. During the procedure Dr. Mark Bishara will make cuts under the breast and begin the insertion of the implants. Once the implants are put in place Dr. Mark Bishara will close the incisions with a suture, Throughout the whole surgical procedure Dr. Mark Bishara’s nurses will be monitoring the patients blood pressure, temperature, pulse and oxygen.
 

AFTER THE PROCEDURE

 
After your Breast Augmentation surgery is complete, the anesthetist will wake you up from your induced sleep. You will then be transferred to the recovery room where our experienced nurses will monitor you until you are fully awake. You may feel a little tired and groggy at this point. Supporting bandages will be wrapped around your chest along with a surgical bra that we provide here at the Paragon Plastic Surgery and Med Spa.  Soreness and swelling are very common to be there for a few weeks after your breast augmentation. Bruising is normal as well. Scars will begin to gradually fade over time.
 

Tips

 
The patient should have someone to drive them home the day of their procedure and have someone help throughout the first 24 hours.  To reduce any swelling and pain you should sleep upright for the first 48 hours. House work should be done prior to your breast augmentation procedure or put on hold at least for a week after. Loose fitting clothing and ice packs will come handy after your breast augmentation procedure. Stay well hydrated, make sure to drink plenty of water during your recovery process.
 
Respectfully yours,
 
 
Mark A Bishara, M.D., P.A. Medical Director

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)

Does PRP sound familiar? PRP or Platelet Rich Plasma has been around for quite some time. It is commonly used for joint rejuvenation, male enhancement and aesthetic procedures like face lifts.
What about hair loss? Hair loss can be caused by many factors in both men and women. Whether it is genetic or for medical reasons, no one likes the fact that they are losing hair. Now a days there are many options to help with hair loss. Some such as minoxidil or roGaine, laser therapy and even hair transplantation.
Did you know that now not only does PRP help with joints and aesthetic procedures, but now it is an option for hair loss as well. PRP is created from the patients own blood, it is placed in a centrifuge so that the plasma is separated. PRP stimulates the present hair to produce longer and stronger strands of hair.  Local anesthetic is used to help minimize any pain and discomfort. The PRP is then injected to the areas that Dr. Bishara has recommended to be treated.
One of the good things about this treatment is there is no down time, you can resume regular activities the moment you leave our office. Some swelling may occur but it is not very common. PRP is a great option if surgery to preserve your existing hair and to support hair transplantation. A consultation with Dr. Mark A Bishara is all it takes to get started with hair loss prevention.

 
 
Respectfully yours,
 
Mark A Bishara, M.D., P.A. Medical Director
