updated plastic surgery computer programs webpage

Updated our plastic surgery computer programs webpage. This webpage includes links to downloadable computer programs and websites and services that have helped grow our plastic surgery practice. It includes things like free faxing service to computer memory upgrades. I guess I should include Skype on there as well.

new laser / Velashape 2

Velashape isn't really a laser. But sometimes it's just lumped into those devices used to make the skin look better "laser" then...

The new Velashape just made itself known to me by our Syneron Sales Rep. It's called the Velashape 2. I have a webage dedicated to listing a bunch of fat shrinking, cellulite busting devices, including lasers.

We haven't gotten the Velashape 2 yet, but it's on our list of things to get eventually. But we want to see results from other colleagues in plastic surgery first. Visit our plastic surgery modesto webpages or our Laser Modesto webpage.

VelaShape is the 1st FDA-cleared non-invasive medical solution for circumferential reduction* and the 1st FDA class II cleared platform for cellulite reduction. The VelaShape platform has also received the CE mark for non-invasive body contouring via temporary circumferential reduction and for temporary reduction of cellulite.

Natrelle breast augmentation kits

Size up your options!

Natrelle newly announced for $50, patients interested in breast augmentation can order a kit and try on different breast sizes. The kit includes educational DVD and educational booklets in addition to four different mock-implants (I believe these are two different sizes). These aren't actual breast implants nor do they have actual sizes such as 650 cc's etc. What's great about the kit is that you get $50 off your natrelle implants if you chose to have natrelle as a brand of implants, and also $120 dollars in rebates for other Allergan pruducts: Botox, Juvederm and Latisse. You can find this Natrelle pre-consultation kit on the Natrelle website.

Natrelle.com has asked if we wanted to be on their website - so that patients can find us there. For now, we haven't signed on. We think they have a good product - for now we are searchable through the web via terms:

Running with breast implants
After Breast Augmentation is it normal...

There are many more ways to find us. We are located in Modesto, CA. Where is Modesto, CA?
We think this is a good idea, but our patients in general do not need the kit - we are able to provide all the education available.

And of course: Juvederm, Botox, and Latisse are available at our office, Surgical Artistry, Inc.

Disclaimer: No specific advice here. Please see your plastic surgeon in person. Reading this doesn't form a patient - doctor relationship.

Excerpted from Breast Implants Modesto page, click on running and breast implants.

“Dear Blanch, I ask my runner breast implant patients to refrain from running for a total of 4 weeks following surgery. During the first three weeks, they may walk LEISURELY ONLY, no power walking or walking with weights on their ankles or hands. Starting about the third week, they may do some light aerobic workout on a stationary bike. I ask that they do no more than 30% of their usual workout routine at this time. After the 4th week, they may do whatever they want to do. However, I always caution them to be careful and start out slow. As a runner myself, I find that if I do not run for 2 weeks, I lose quite a bit of what I had prior to the two weeks, even with regular running. Therefore, I ask that they then build up slowly week by week, taking time to reach their preoperative workout level by about the 10th week following surgery. A good supportive sports bra, which may be a bit uncomfortable initially is the Enell sports bra. This bra provides very good support following surgery during workout sessions. You may search the Enell sports bra on the internet. Best of luck to you and enjoy! Dr. T. Wu

Changes have been made recently to our webpage for Plastic Surgery Modesto - this particular webpage has more information regarding breast implants. There are links on the bottom of the page which are slightly blog style and sometimes off topic. But it's always related because it usually regards things that happen in our office. Also visit our other page regarding breast implants in Modesto, CA.

Dysport is out - now available in Modesto

Dysport (I think was at one point supposed to be called Reloxin) is an alternative to Botox. It just came out and we were just visited by the reps. We are awaiting feedback from other plastic surgeons who use Dysport. I was told that it is already available in some cosmetic surgery offices in Modesto.

For now, look for our updates on our Botox Modesto web page.

Cancer Survivor's Celebration at Doctors Hospital Modesto

This is the third year that I participated in this event at DMC (Doctor's Medical Center), Modesto. It featured guest speakers and I was the musical entertainment on the violin. I had tried to play the piano this year, but I didn't have the time to buy a portable digital piano - one that was portable enough for me. I'm not great a hauling heavy instruments. The event was run by Sima Nazi, RN who always pours her heart into these events. The turnout as before has been great. I even added a plug about the Docs play the pops fundraiser for Modesto Junior College . That's an even that I also participate in every year and attempt to co-organize. It actually rained a few drops today, but for the outdoor portion of the celebration event, it was sunny and without rain. I played a few selections: Theme from the God Father, Dance theme song from Scent of a Woman (Pour Una Cabeza), an excerpt of a violin show piece: Zigeunerweisen, and finally the Bach piece - Presto unaccompanied Sonata #1. We didn't this year make a mention of the Plastic Surgery Modesto practice that I'm involved with. But that's ok. So much press this year - we sometimes need to take a breather from the practice.

Elastiderm - 3 different products

There's 3 products we carry with the name Obagi Elastiderm:

1. Elastiderm eye cream
2. Elastiderm eye gel
3. Elastiderm for neck and decollatage

There may be some initial confusion, but in the end it's pretty straight forward.

Plastic Surgery Modesto (Tammy Wu, MD 209-551-1888) we carry Elastiderm products by Obagi.

By using Copper Zinc Malonate, it works to help restore the elasticity around your eyes and reduce visible fine lines and wrinkles. Many patients feel that Elastiderm products go hand in hand with Botox treatment.s

No specific medical advice is found here - this is just generalized info.

The website is: Docs Play the Pops - it is a fundraise for music education at MJC! Tickets are $12.

Added Dr. Wu's intro video (with violin in the background)

I added the Dr. Wu intro video (with me playing an intense part of the Tchaik Violin Concerto). I admit and Dr. Wu agrees that the background music isn't the best fit for this intro video to our plastic surgery web pages.

I added the video to the following web pages:

Plastic Surgery Modesto, CA - www.surgerytoday.com
Plastic Surgery Modesto, CA - www.tammywu.com

More to come. I've also been getting reviews on our Google Maps page.

fat suctioning

Liposuction - I read an article in MedEsthetics magazine regarding a group of Dermatologists who want their website to SEO well for the term Liposuction - specifically liposuction in Seattle.

Well, we'll keep to our location, and we have a plastic surgeon - Dr. Tammy Wu. We'll stick with Liposuction Modesto. Of course we offer many other things.

I think I'll focus on Liposuction more in the future. I'm not sure how I'll fit Liposuction in with acupuncture, veins, and botox. Meanwhile, we also have Latisse for Modesto! Latisse is an eyelash growth drug - we've seen some great results.

pageranks google search

just did a thegetpr.com search on some of my websites. I see a PR of 2 is good.
My websites got consolidated to a single IP address - I'm not sure that this is a good thing.

I'll be working on fixing the single IP address issue for SEO purposes.

Plastic Surgery Modesto is now PR of 2 (http://www.surgical-artistry-modesto.com)

The google local listing of ours Modesto Plastic Surgery is listed as "C" third one down. We are far from the city center so we have some innate disadvantages when it comes to google local seo.

Updated my youtube RisingPianoFire Channel

New video showing my adventures in New York City right before the YouTube Symphony event.

My youtube channel is www.youtube.com/risingpianofire

I will be updating the modesto plastic surgery webpage soon.

There is also now a video on the main surgerytoday.com webpage which is the oldest plastic surgery modesto webpage.

Thank you for visiting and hopefully it has been enjoyable.

Swine Flu Tips

New website suggestion from our Plastic Surgery website . I just published this website a few days ago (at the end of April 2009). Some suggestions on how to avoid the Flu if possible. The Swine Flu scare of 2009 - hopefully it will be over soon and won't turn into a Flu Pandemic.

There is no specific medical advice here - only hypothetical. Please see your doctor in person for specific medical advice - especially about the flu. No patient-physician relationship created here.
