Have you been working those abs to tone up for bikini season? Despite exercise and a healthy diet, some areas can be difficult to tone. As we suit-up for summer, are you still battling that unwanted bulge on your stomach, thighs, legs or arms? At Bassin Center for Plastic Surgery, we offer Aqualipo in Orlando, a minimally invasive, water-based technique to combat troublesome areas of fat.
Aqualipo’s water-jet fat removal technology doesn’t “suction” fat, but instead uses a spray of sterile fluid to flush out the fat for easy removal. Ideal for those who want to remove excess fat in the arms, tummy, thighs, buttocks, and back, Aqualipo eliminates unwanted fat in areas you just can’t conquer with exercise and diet alone! Unlike traditional liposuction in Florida, Aqualipo ultilizes advanced techniques to gently remove fat, minimizing bleeding, swelling, and bruising. The procedure takes only 30-45 minutes for each trouble spot, and you can resume normal activities after ZERO downtime.
Aqualipo in Florida can help you reach your perfect beach body! Whether it’s a love handle, excess thigh fat, or bulge around your belly, check out the results:

Do you have unwanted pigmentation on your face, commonly referred to as “age spots”? Years of sun exposure can lead to solar elastosis, the process of losing youthful skin tone and texture. Damaged skin on your face can add years to your appearance. Fortunately, it’s never too late to repair damaged skin and clear your complexion with laser skin resurfacing in Orlando!
Laser skin resurfacing replaces damaged and cosmetically unappealing skin with fresh skin cells by heating the top layer of scarred skin. This process will remove the damaged layer with precision and encourage the new skin cells to grow within five days, giving you a younger-looking, tighter, refreshed skin surface. Laser skin resurfacing in Orlando is similar to microdermabrasion or chemical peels but is a more advanced treatment, using lasers for precise removal.
After laser skin resurfacing, our plastic surgeon in Florida recommends practicing sun safety to maintain long-lasting results and sustain a younger-looking, healthier skin:
-
Always use sunscreen, even on cloudy days or during the winter
-
Cover up exposed skin with sunglasses, a hat, and shade
-
Remain indoors or take extreme caution during the sun’s strongest hours (between 10AM & 2PM)
Remember to always reapply sunscreen and to self-check your body for unusual or changing moles, beauty marks, and brown spots.
Roger Bassin, M.D., Rigo Mendoza, M.D., and their staff welcome any questions you may have regarding laser skin resurfacing in Orlando. You can contact us at our Melbourne Plastic Surgery office at 1.321.255.0025, our Orlando Plastic Surgery office at 1.407.851.3888, our Tampa Plastic Surgery office at 1.813.872.7800, and our Villages Plastic Surgery office at 1.877.333.3223, or you may request an appointment online for a personal consultation with either Dr. Bassin or Dr. Mendoza.

Bikini season is coming fast! Temperatures are getting warmer and the beaches are awaiting the arrival of beach-goers. The beach is the best place to enjoy your bikini body this summer. Be the talk of the beach with breast enhancement from the Bassin Center for Plastic Surgery! Whether you’re interested in an increased size, improved shape, or a breast lift, our Florida plastic surgeon, Dr. Rigo Mendoza, can have you ready for summer bikini season!
Increase Size:
One of the most common cosmetic procedures in the United States today, breast augmentation in Florida can increase the size of your breasts, restore fullness, and correct asymmetries. With the use of saline or silicone breast implants in Florida, our plastic surgeon can determine the best size and shape for your body type. Dr. Mendoza will discuss your options to help tailor a plan that best fits your expectations for breast augmentation.
Improve Shape:
By using natural fat transfer, our Florida plastic surgeon can improve the shape of your breasts. By using your own natural fat to shape your breasts, you’re also shaping and slimming the area where the fat is removed. Additionally, using a natural filler, like your own fat, will give your breasts a more natural-looking, softer feel, as opposed to the firmer touch of breast implants.
Lift:
With age, women begin to notice a change in the position of their breasts. Sagging or drooping breasts occur after extreme weight gain or loss, pregnancy, or aging. Many women are unhappy with the appearance of sagging breasts, and some women may even experience physical pain in their neck, shoulders, or back, or rashes and skin irritations. A breast lift in Tampa will raise breasts into a more youthful position, improve their balance and possibly redefining their shape.
Whether itsy bitsy, or yellow polka-dotted, break out the bikini this summer and show off fuller, younger, more beautiful breasts with breast enhancement in Florida. Dr. Rigo Mendoza and the staff at Bassin Center for Plastic Surgery in Tampa welcome any questions you may have about breast augmentation in Florida. Our plastic surgeon will help you determine which procedure is best for your needs. You can contact us at our Melbourne Plastic Surgery office at 1.321.255.0025, our Orlando Plastic Surgery office at 1.407.851.3888, our Tampa Plastic Surgery office office at 1.813.872.7800, and our Villages Plastic Surgery office at 1.877.333.3223, or you may request an appointment online for a personal consultation with Dr. Mendoza.

Happy spring! With the new season comes change and growth for all of nature. If you’re catching spring fever, and want to improve the quality and thickness of your hair growth, consider hair restoration in Tampa. Deciding on a technique for hair transplantation can be an overwhelming undertaking. With numerous procedures available, some more invasive than others, it’s important to know your hair restoration options. Learn more about the traditional strip method for hair restoration and the latest innovation for hair transplantation in Tampa, NeoGraft:
|
|
Strip Method |
NeoGraft |
|
Extraction |
After removal, hair follicles are handled with forceps to replant them in the desired treatment area, decreasing the follicle survival rate. |
Using pneumatic pressure, or suction, hair follicles are harvested from the thickest area of a patient’s scalp. |
|
Graft Preparation |
Once hair follicles have been extracted and a graft is carefully designed, our hair doctor will use very small needles or micro blades to place each graft in the balding area of your head. |
Even during extraction, hair follicles are kept in a moist, regularly misted, collection canister during NeoGraft. By keeping follicles in a more stable, sterile environment, survival rate of the follicles is increased. |
|
Implantation |
Once hair follicles have been extracted and a graft is carefully designed, our hair doctor will use very small needles or micro blades to place each graft in the balding area of your head. |
Similarly to extraction, pneumatic pressure is used to smoothly insert hair grafts with precision. This method requires no sutures or scalpels for implantation. |
|
Recovery |
After placement, patients may feel a post-op sensation, often described as a “tightness” in the scalp caused by extracted skin. A permanent linear scar may also be noticeable around the extraction area. Results from the traditional strip hair transplant method will begin to be noticed six months or more after surgery, and are transformative. |
After NeoGraft, patients experience little to no post-operative pain. Patients have reported seeing results from NeoGraft in as little as three months. These natural-looking results will give you a fuller, thicker head of hair. |
Bring new life to your hair this spring with hair transplantation in Tampa! Roger Bassin, M.D., Rigo Mendoza, M.D., and their staff look forward to discussing any questions you may have about NeoGraft in Tampa. You can contact us at Tampa Hair Restoration Center at 855-234-HAIR, our Orlando Hair Restoration Center at 855-459-HAIR, our Jacksonville Hair Restoration Center at 904-996-0030, our Atlanta Hair Restoration Center at 404-816-7177 or you may request an appointment online for a personal consultation with either Dr. Bassin, Dr. Mendoza, or our Director of Hair Restoration, Ron Doria.
