Cosmetic Surgery

Announcer: As we grow older, our skin can lose it's you youthful elasticity and firmness. It can sag, creating the appearance of age. That's why so many people in the Minneapolis area seek out the solutions available from Mesna Plastic Surgery. A board- certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Greg Mesna has more than 16 years of experience. Dr. Mesna: I think plastic surgery combines aesthetics and medicines. It allows me to offer procedures to patients that can really make them feel better about themselves. What we can with a couple of hours of plastic surgery, most patients can't do with a lifetime in the gym. Announcer: Dr. Mesna offers a full range of procedures to restore and maintain a vital, youthful appearance, such as face and brow lifts to reduce wrinkling and sagging, breast lifts and breast augmentation or reduction to reshape, resize, or reposition, and abdominoplasty, also known as tummy tuck, to restore firmness and shape to the tummy area. Dr. Mesna: For many of our patients, a lot of the larger procedures are truly life-changing. We see immediate changes in their self- image and confidence, and we also see long-term changes in their lifestyles and activities. Announcer: One of the latest procedures is Cool Sculpting, a non-invasive treatment that freezes away stubborn fat. An alternative to liposuction, Cool Sculpting requires no anesthesia, no surgery, and no downtime. Dr. Mesna also offers a number of laser treatments, such as laser skin resurfacing. In this procedure, intense laser light is used to remove dead or damaged skin. This same technique can also be used to firm or tighten the skin. Dr. Mesna: There are small pieces of new technology that are always being developed and introduced. We take a look at those with a little bit of a conservative eye and try to make sure that anything that we offer for our patients is effective and safe before we will employ it in our practice. Announcer: That deep concern for the welfare for his patients has been at the heart of Dr. Mesna's practice since its founding in 1996. Dr. Mesna: I think people come here because they understand that we truly care about them as an individual, and we would do everything that can to help them feel better about themselves and achieve their goals. Announcer: You can sense the difference from the moment you walk through the door. Dr. Mesna: When I started this practice, I wanted to develop a friendly environment where patients felt like they were provided the best services possible from providers who felt like they really cared about them as an individual. We have a warm and inviting atmosphere with an upbeat and positive attitude. I think it comes from the staff. We have some very talented staff who really enjoy what they do, and I think patients can pick up on that and feel it when they are here. Announcer: You can expect a truly personalized approach that begins when you first sit down with Dr. Mesna. Dr. Mesna: Most patients will come in for an initial consultation and evaluation, during which time we try to really listen to what they have to say, what their concerns are, and problems are, and try to help them establish what their real goals are. After we've established that they have a problem that we can identify and fix, then oftentimes, we will have them back for an additional consultation so that they have plenty of time to think about their procedures and ask any additional questions they might have. We also go over all of their post-operative care with them ahead of time so that they are well informed and understand what to expect for the recovery. Announcer: Safe, established procedures for women and men, a highly skilled and exceptionally-friendly staff, and a doctor dedicated to achieving the best outcomes for every individual patient. Dr. Mesna: I think the most satisfying aspect of my job is that I can do things for patients that help them feel better about themselves that they otherwise couldn't do for themselves. Announcer: If you're ready to make a real difference in your appearance, your self-image, and your life, today is the day to start.
