Well everyone once in a while I hold a introductory type event for something to introduce people to my services and practice. In recent years,  my favorite Hair Designer– Renee at Sanctuary Salon has hosted this at her place and now its kinda of a regular thing. Its kinda fun, a group of her clients and new ones will show up and I go there with one of my nurses with a box of goodies — Botox, Fillers such as Restylene, and we can talk about anything they may be curious about.

Then it becomes a bit of show in that everyone watches each other get injected. Its a rather lively atmosphere and all of these people show up and are chit chatting discussing the latest gossip or creating gossip themselves. I certainly enjoy the change of atmosphere. It is always interesting to see how others react to my work, which at my office is rather private instead of 20 people all looking around and commenting.

Just to make it interesting I give some form of discount to everyone who attends. I think what I will do this time to see if anyone reads my post is to add another 10% off to my already special event price to anyone who mentions this post and makes a comment on my blog here.

New web site for Plastic Surgery Hawaii -doctor808

Posted on May 24, 2013 by Michael Pasquale

Cool new web site

We have been working hard on and off for the last 6 months to get a new web site ready. This site we hope will be seen as state of the art. Looking across the Internet at other plastic surgeons web sites we are thinking we are doing rather well. This web site is graphically improved and has some of the latest bells and whistles such as we are adding videos.

300 Articles !

The text and articles are slowly being re written and we will be adding new information. One thing we are doing is tying all our social media accounts, our YouTube account and looking to improve all information for our patients. With in a month we will be starting a regular news letter and integrating our iPhone app.

Suggestions wanted

If any of my readers spend some time there looking around and can make any suggestions or find errors just send us and email. I may very well give a nice prize for any suggestions we use.

Oh and if you stop by please like us on Face Book and Google plus

You can find us at www.nerve.org which is domain name I have owned for almost 20 years so you can get an idea how long I have had a website. This site has gone through 100’s of modifications over the yeas and has to be one of the longest running plastic surgeon’s web sites in the world- no joke.

The reason the name is NERVE.ORG is I at one time was a peripheral nerve micro surgeon formally trained in facial nerve repair. I have since limited myself to cosmetic surgery in the last ten years.

So take a look.

Military —Liposuction to pass the tape test.

Posted on May 19, 2013 by Michael Pasquale

Meet the Military Tape Test with Liposuction

One of the procedures I have done for many years is liposuction. Many of my patients are military patients who cannot pass the tape test.When a soldier or sailor ,marine or air force person goes before the retention or promotion board they want to make sure they are fit for military standards.

This can involve exercise tolerance testing  and indeed if there is a question they will have measurements taken. If they don’t have the proper measurements for example the waist is 42 inches but needs to be below 38 inches they cannot continue their career or lose the promotion. Many times certain military personnel can be in great shape,  but have excess fat only around the waist. This does happen and if they lose that fat the rest of the body looks like a skeleton. So simple weight loss may not be a good solution.

In  these cases liposuction has proven again and again to be a great solution providing they get liposuction in enough time before the tape test.

I can play the fortune teller !

Since I have been doing this many years (over 20) and have been in the military myself I have developed a special talent. When I see a soldier I am very good at predicting how many inches I can take off. In other words when a soldier comes in I can feel around and predict with pretty good accuracy how many inches they will be after liposuction. I cannot guarantee anything as Doctors cannot give any guarantee as its considered unethical.

I can be the hero too ,,,,,

Yet when a military person comes in and says “I missed my tape test by two inches or three inches” I have no problem giving my opinion and say “I think I can take off about 3 inches for example. This is kinda fun as I get the be the hero who saves this persons career.

The picture below illustrates well what I am talking about. Here I had a soldier who was actually 6 inches off the tape measurement. I liposuctioned one side and left the other before I did the other side took this picture. So as you can see on the front I got it down about 4 cm, another was 2 inches off the side and finally 2 inches off the back for a total of 8 inches of mid line fat. This guy is rather happy and passed his tape test and I am the hero !!  So take a look , but this is picture is copyrighted so do not use it.

If you or you have a friend who may  benefit from this procedure give us call or email us about more info, we may be able to help ! I think this picture says it all. See our plastic surgery web site.
