Cruise Plastic Surgery To Be Featured on Bravo TV's Hit Series "Newlyweds"

    NEWPORT BEACH, CA, January 19, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sought out for his expert advice and coveted patient results, Dr. Joseph T. Cruise, alongside a current cast member on Bravo TV's "Newlyweds" will be featured in an emotional storyline element, addressing an aesthetic concern that affects men of all ages and walks of life throughout the world. This unique opportunity allowed for the cast member as a patient to achieve a renewed sense of confidence that affected every area of his life, while allowing Dr. Cruise to shed light on a common condition that men are ashamed to talk about. As an innovator in his field, Dr. Cruise feels compelled to help bring awareness to this condition while raising the bar for effective treatment. Grateful for the opportunity, Dr. Cruise is humbled to have been chosen as the patient's surgeon of choice, and honored to have been able to create such a positive impact on his life as a Newlywed.

"Gynecomastia is more than a mere aesthetic concern. The emotional and psychological effects of this condition run deep and strip away self confidence like a cancer. It spares no age group or race, often rearing its ugly head early in puberty when young teenagers are already having a difficult time fitting in. They become withdrawn, and begin to feel alone and trapped in a body they begin to hate, eating away at their body image during a critical time. This emotional pain continues into adulthood on a broader scale as grown men begin to feel self conscious by the pool, changing at the gym, and ashamed in their own skin. Most patients, regardless of age, don't even realize this condition has a name, let alone a treatment. Patients suffer in silence, enduring profound feelings of embarrassment and becoming extremely self-conscious.

By far, gynecomastia patients express the most profound gratitude post procedure, as they feel a sense of relief physically and emotionally they had not realized was possible. Words cannot describe the sense of joy I feel watching a patient see his chest after gynecomastia surgery. Even the most stoic of men are brought to tears. This procedure is truly transformative for the patients and their lives.

As a surgeon, I feel an obligation to raise public awareness not only for gynecomastia as a condition, but also for its treatment, as these techniques are not typically taught in many plastic surgery training programs. This is why revision rates are so high and awareness is so low. From the very beginning of my practice I was astounded at how underserved and misunderstood gynecomastia was. I am continually inspired by my patients to share my knowledge and skill set in order to remove the veil of shame that is often associated with this common aesthetic concern. Gynecomastia and gynecomastic correction are by far the most satisfying procedures offered at Cruise Plastic Surgery as nothing rivals the renewed sense of life these patients feel, or the reward I feel having been able to truly help them." -Dr. Joseph T. Cruise

About Dr. Joseph T. Cruise:
An international leader in plastic surgery and aesthetic enhancement, Dr. Cruise has established an award winning reputation for distinguished work, complete with quality patient care. An artist at heart, Dr. Cruise and his keen attention to detail are actively sought out by discerning men and women across the globe who desire exceptional results without compromise.

As a board-certified plastic surgeon with advanced technical training, Dr. Cruise specializes in gynecomastia surgery and is recognized as a leading industry expert. Performing over 250 gynecomastias per year, his innovative techniques and comprehensive approach to treating this all too common condition have opened the door for a global perspective shift on how to recognize and effectively treat patients who endure the physical as well as psychological effects.

Recognizing an undeniable, quickly growing need for treatment that produced permanent results, Dr. Cruise chose to dedicate a portion of his advanced surgical practice towards this condition. Affecting a staggering portion of the male population including children, teenagers, and adults alike, the growing range of triggers that cause this to develop in men is vast. Dr. Cruise's comprehensive understanding of the effects gynecomastia has on the body and overall well being of the patient, allows him to create a comfortable, secure process for the patient's treatment.

While traditional plastic surgery solutions do not provide predictable or meaningful relief, Dr. Cruise has created a highly effective surgical protocol for permanently addressing gynecomastia. Unlike the lackluster therapies from the past that left patients feeling self-conscious about their chest, ranging from incomplete removal and divoting to puffy nipple and complex healing concerns, the innovative treatment available at Cruise Plastic Surgery is proven.

Dr. Cruise developed a proprietary gynecomastia classification system which outlines the various types of the condition along with accompanying emotional and physiological effects, while detailing optimal treatment plans for each. This evolutionary system has allowed him to progressively modify his techniques and achieve concise results for each patient. Combining individually tailored surgery protocol with convenience and accessibility was essential in bringing this treatment on the forefront for patients. Expertly trained staff plus focused, pre and post procedure protocols have allowed for the flexibility needed for many patients and their lifestyle demands. While traditional methods require general anesthesia, blood work, and significant downtime, Cruise Plastic Surgery performs the vast majority of gynecomastia procedures under local anesthesia with oral sedation - no I.V.'s, no blood work, no general anesthesia needed.

Dr. Cruise grew up in the Midwest city of St. Clair Shores, Michigan. Graduating with honors and as Valedictorian from Lakeview High School, his goal was to become a Plastic Surgeon. Later, he graduated Magna Cum Laude from Wayne State University in Michigan and then moved on to graduate in the upper class of his medical school also at Wayne State University.

Cosmetic surgery is Dr. Cruise's primary focus, but he also has dedicated considerable time as a burn specialist at the Grossman Burn Center at Western Medical Hospital reconstructing disfigured burn victims.
