Williams Center Events

Imagine being trapped, unable to feel any sense of personal safety.

Nearly 3 million women a year do not need to imagine the above scenario. They are part of a health epidemic that crosses economic, ethnic, religious and social lines. And each year domestic violence kills more women than cancer does, according to the U.S. Office of the Surgeon General.

To bring greater awareness to Domestic Violence and to raise funds to benefit the survivors', The Williams Center will host the Second Annual Come on Girlfriends! Share Your Secrets! - a lively, educational, interactive Evening of Fun and Beauty! Their goal is to double the $10,000 raised last year and have even more fun doing it!

DATE:     Thursday, April 7, 2011
TIME:      5-8 pm
PLACE:   Williams Center Plastic Surgery Specialists
                 1072 Troy Schenectady Rd. Latham, NY

All profits from the event, which includes a silent auction, will be donated locally to Equinox's Domestic Violence Shelter (http://www.equinoxinc.org) and, nationally, to the Face to Face Foundation, the humanitarian arm of the Educational and Research Foundation for the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.(www.facetofacesurgery.org)

The William's Center Plastic Surgery Specialists are currently soliciting donations for auction items. If you would like to contribute or attend the auction, please contact us at (518) 786-7000.

He wants to have surgery but I feel he is too young.

November 19th

My 8-year-old son is constantly teased because of his large ears. He wants to have surgery but I feel he is too young, is still growing and may regret having surgery in the future. What can I say to him to deter him from wanting this?

Obviously, a decision to have surgery on a child's ears should be a well informed decision and something that both the parents and the child wish to proceed forward with. In our experience, children at the age of 5 or older are good candidates for the surgery. This is the age when they begin to experience some degree of teasing at school and become more aware of their body image. At the same time the ears themselves have grown to close to their final adult size and therefore the surgery can be done safely and effectively at this age.

One of my ears has always been slightly larger than the other.

November 17th

One of my ears has always been slightly larger than the other. I now have the financial ability to undergo otoplasty to fix my issue. What is the usual recovery time for such a procedure so that I can give my job notification?

Typically the recovery after otoplasty is approximately one week. There still may be some residual tenderness and mild degree of swelling after the procedure however most patients are able to return to work after one week.
