Houston Health & Fitness Profile
on Dr. Michael Eisemann
(Houston Health &
Fitness)
At a time when everyone
from the corner grocery store to multi-national
corporations are looking to expand and
become less personalized in their approach,
Cosmetic and Plastic Surgeon Michael Eisemann,
MD maintains a simple philosophy.
“I’m the only
doctor that people deal with in my practice.
No partners.” Dr. Eisemann says,
“I believe there is a level of excellence
that ca be achieved through providing
a continuity of care. I have a broad-based
practice and thanks to my on-site surgical
facility, I’m able to do most procedures
in-office. I believe by dealing with the
same doctor and nurses in a familiar environment
it helps to ease any concerns the patient
may have.”
In practice since 1977,
Dr. Eisemann is board-certified by the
American Board of Plastic Surgery and
the American Board of Otolaryngology and
performs a variety of cosmetic surgical
procedures, concentrating on liposuction,
breast augmentation, reduction and reconstruction,
rhinoplasty and facial procedures.
For his liposuction patients,
Dr. Eisemann uses either traditional or
ultrasonic techniques to dramatically
improve their appearance. Ultrasonic techniques
are used to remove fat deposits from hard-to-treat
areas such as the back. Dr. Eisemann is
also skilled in the use for Endoscopic
equipment in breast enlargement procedures.
“I use I.V. sedation
in most of my procedures, rather than
general aesthesia”, explains Dr.
Eisemann, “There are fewer post-operative
problems with I.V. sedation. The patient
does not have to be hospitalized and I.V.
sedation is a more cost-effective method
as well.”
Dr. Eisemann is a graduate
of Colgate University. He served his residency
at Yale University, the John Hopkins Hospital
and the Baylor College of Medicine. A
past president of the Houston Society
of Plastic Surgeons, Dr. Eisemann has
been listed in the “Guide to Top
Doctors” as one of Texas’
top-rated plastic surgeons.
“Our approach to patient
care is to provide services which are
high quality, cost effective and convenient.
Our highly trained medical staff is sensitive
to the individual needs of each patient
and provides the personal touch that makes
any procedure more comfortable”,
says Dr. Eisemann. “I think what
makes us unique is our office-based medical
facility, which allows us to provide procedures
which had been previously performed in
the hospital.”
Dr. Eisemann takes special
pleasure in producing life-changing results
for rhinoplasty patients. He says surgery
of the nose requires an uncommon skill
and experience.
“Rhinoplasty is a
unique surgical procedure because multiple
steps are involved, both during the operation
and in the healing process. Because you’re
dealing with soft tissue, cartilage and
bone, extensive experience is needed.
A surgeon needs to have performed many
surgeries to be able to anticipate what
the outcome will be. The surgery can be
extremely rewarding when the patient sees
their new appearance.”
Dr. Eisemann has noticed
the dramatic effect cosmetic surgery has
had on many of his patients. The renewed
confidence and self-esteem that can be
derived through the improvement of an
area the patient considers to be a physical
flaw can be breath-taking.
“I’ve often
thought that plastic surgery can be thought
of as a sort of psychological surgery
as well. People who’ve improved
their appearance often begin to look at
life differently. Their new appearance
helps them to compete in the workplace
better and often improves their relationships
as well. The benefits of a surgical procedure
frequently go far beyond just the physical
corrections that are made in the operating
room.”
In order to make the benefits
of cosmetic surgery available to as many
people as possible, Dr. Eisemann provides
several financing options and insurance
covers most reconstructive and post-trauma
procedures.
An avid golfer and
tennis player, Dr. Eisemann says cosmetic
surgery has moved into the mainstream
of society and is now viewed by many people
to be simply another method of improving
their life, like taking a night class
or changing their hairstyle.
