Get to Know Dr. Colin Failey
As a plastic surgeon serving Somerville, Florham Park, and beyond, Dr. Colin Failey sees a wide range of face, body, and breast patients—but he maintains the same philosophy in his work with them all: He aims to truly listen so he can “bring out the best person they see in themselves.”
One of the most important aspects of this process is maintaining open communication, starting with the initial consultation, continuing through the preparations and procedure itself, and even extending beyond the surgery through recovery and follow-ups. Every patient should feel comfortable and confident with their choice in both procedure and surgeon, and being able to freely discuss every aspect of a procedure helps immensely.
Dr. Failey shares detailed information about his education, background, and experience with each patient during an initial meeting, but he also makes his biography and CV available online. One of the standout facts about him is his dual board certification.
Board certification is a voluntary process physicians can undertake in order to further their education and credentialing, ensure they maintain the highest standards in their field, and establish a mark of distinction. Dr. Failey is certified by the American Board of Surgery (which is for general surgeons) and the American Board of Plastic Surgery (which focuses on reconstructive and cosmetic surgeons).
Dr. Failey performs many cosmetic surgery procedures, including breast augmentations, tummy tucks, and liposuction. He also performs reconstructive surgery, which can be ideal for breast cancer patients undergoing partial mastectomy to preserve breast shape and symmetry with oncoplastic techniques. Dr. Failey also performs reconstruction after total mastectomy to recreate his patients’ breasts with their own tissue or implants. He has more recently focused on trying to restore sensation that is lost during mastectomy by performing complex sensory nerve grafting at the time of the initial breast reconstruction.
While this information can be helpful to read, nothing beats an in-person, face-to-face conversation. To schedule a consultation with Dr. Colin Failey at The Peer Group, call 973-822-3000 or reach out online.
5 Ways to Further Enhance Your Look After Breast Implants
How do I get the best results after breast augmentation? Our New Jersey-based team knows that after you get implants, you might be looking for ways to enhance your look even more—while simultaneously preserving the best results from the surgery.
Breast implants are a popular cosmetic surgery option for anyone looking to enhance the size and shape of their breasts. It goes without saying that even though you will likely be impressed with the results from this procedure, you may also want to see what you can do to optimize your results even more. Here are some things you might want to do:
1. Consider a Breast Lift
While breast implants can add volume to the breasts, they do not address issues such as sagging or drooping. If you are experiencing these laxity-related problems, a breast lift can help to elevate and reshape the breasts, creating a more youthful and perky appearance. Combining breast implants with a breast lift can provide a more comprehensive enhancement.
2. Incorporate Exercise Into Your Routine
Exercise can help to improve overall health and fitness, as well as enhance the appearance of the body. By incorporating strength training exercises that target chest muscles, you can help to sculpt and define the muscles around your new breast implants, creating a more toned and defined look.
3. Invest in Quality Bras and Clothing
Properly fitting bras and clothing can help to showcase your new breast implants and enhance your overall appearance. Look for bras and clothing that flatter your figure and accentuate your curves, while also providing the necessary support and comfort.
4. Consider Other Cosmetic Procedures
Breast implants can be combined with other cosmetic procedures to further enhance your appearance. For example, liposuction can help to contour and slim areas of the body, while a tummy tuck can create a more toned and sculpted abdomen.
5. Practice Good Skin Care
Healthy, glowing skin can help to enhance your overall appearance and complement your breast implants. Invest in quality skin care products and establish a daily routine that includes cleansing, moisturizing, and protecting your skin from sun damage to preserve an overall vibrant, more youthful look.
