Manchester, NH
(ContentDesk) June 12, 2006 -- Dr. Peter T. Pacik, founder of the Plastic Surgery Center, presented a combination of three techniques developed over the past 4 ? years to make breast enlargement surgery safer and more effective at the 47th annual meeting of the New England Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, Inc. in New Castle, New Hampshire (June 2nd through June 4th, 2006).Dr. Pacik presented his new techniques, which provide improved integrity to the breast fold, thereby reducing the complication of bottoming out in a paper titled Augmentation Mammaplasty: Managing the Inframammary Fold.

Breast Reduction ? Cosmetic Surgery
Breast Reduction ? Cosmetic SurgeryBreast reduction procedures are becoming more and more popular these days.
This surgery is known as mammaplasties.
Large breasts can cause various medical problems due to the excessive weight on the chest in addition to skeletal deformities and sometimes breathing problems.
Disproportionately large breasts can also lead to extreme self-consciousness. Breast reduction is designed for women with these problems.
The procedure removes particular amounts of fat, glandular tissues and skin from each side of the breasts.
This allows the breast to become smaller, lighter and more firm.
The surgery also can reduce the size of the areola (the dark skin surrounding the nipple). The goal of the breast reduction surgery is to give the woman smaller, firmer and better shaped breasts that will be more in proportion to her body.Recovering from a breast reduction procedure is very similar to other breast surgery recoveries.

Acquisition Bids Portend Potential Duopoly in the Cosmetic Surgery Marketplace
(ContentDesk) November 28, 2005 -- The potential acquisition of Inamed (IMDC) by Allergan (AGN) would create a cosmetic surgery powerhouse that could dominate the US facial aesthetics market. If Mentor Corporations (MNT) bid for Medics (MRX) is also successful, this partnership will bring forth the second-largest competitor in this market, thus creating a strong duopoly in the US cosmetic surgery marketplace.Although Medicis was the first company to propose a merger with Inamed in March 2005, its bid was plagued by Federal Trade Commission (FTC) anti-trust allegations because the combined company would capture nearly 100% of the hyaluronic acid (HA) and collagen dermal filler markets. This left open the opportunity for Allergans unsolicited bid for Inamed on November 15th, valued at $3.2 billion. The Allergan offer is more likely to close not only because it has a higher dollar value, but also because it is unlikely to raise anti-trust concerns with the FTC. In particular, Allergan...
