John W. Pate Jr., D.D.S., M.D., F.A.C.S. is a board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon who has been practicing plastic and cosmetic Surgery in El Paso, Texas since 1976. Doctor Pate is also certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery. He received his dental degree from the University of Texas Dental Branch and his medical degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas. Following his residency in otolaryngology/head and neck Surgery and facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas in 1976, he began his practice of plastic and cosmetic surgery in El Paso TX.

Dr. Pate has a wide array of expertise including nearly all types of cosmetic facial surgical procedures in which he uses lasers to perform many of them. Because of his specialized surgical techniques, he can safely perform face lifting, eyelid cosmetic surgery (blepharoplasty) and/or nasal cosmetic surgery (rhinoplasty) in the same surgical setting. Additionally, he is able to perform cosmetic laser resurfacing to tighten and rejuvenate the skin. Laser skin resurfacing, using the CO2 laser, creates new, smooth facial skin by ablating the outer layers of skin which has been damaged by age, sun, acne, wrinkles or pigmentation problems. Dr. Pate does chin and cheek implants which are a great way to enhance a facial profile by improving the overall proportion and balance of the face. Chin implants (mentoplasty) or cheek implants (malarplasty) can add fullness and definition to the face providing a rejuvenated, youthful facial profile. He has been performing liposuction surgery since 1985 and is well versed in the use of the tumescent technique for liposuction surgery as well as the use of ultrasonic and laser liposuction surgery. Dr. Pate can safely perform liposuction as well as a mini tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) in the same surgical setting. Performing multiple surgeries during a single surgical setting is safe and less expensive and consolidates downtime into a single recovery period. He also provides Botox and fillers (i.e., Radiesse and Juvederm Ultra Plus) that are the perfect compliment to many of the cosmetic surgeries that he does.

Dr. Pate is a member of the El Paso County Medical Society, The Texas Medical Association, The Texas Cosmetic Surgical Society, The American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, The American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and The American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery. He is also a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He is a frequent speaker in cosmetic surgery meetings on various aspects of plastic surgery.

Non-Surgical Renessa® Treatment Now Available for Women with Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)

Local Ob Gyn Physician offers a single 30 minute in-office treatment, Renessa Frisco TX

Dr. Jonathan Weinstein, now offers a new non-surgical treatment for women who suffer from stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in Frisco. SUI is the involuntary leakage of urine which occurs during routine activities such as laughing, coughing, sneezing or exercise. SUI is often a result of childbirth and occurs when pelvic muscles no longer provide adequate support to prevent the opening of the bladder.

Many women are not interested in undergoing a surgical procedure to treat their SUI. Others mistakenly accept SUI as a natural consequence of aging or childbirth. Fortunately, there are an increasing number of solutions to this embarrassing condition.

One of the non-surgical options is the Renessa® treatment. During the Renessa procedure, controlled, low temperature heat is applied to multiple, very small sites in the urethra and bladder. Upon healing, the treated sites are firmer, providing greater resistance to leaks. The Renessa treatment is performed in Dr. Weinstein’s office in approximately 30 minutes using local anesthesia.There are no incisions, bandages or dressings. Unlike surgery, Renessa requires little or no downtime. Women can safely resume most normal activities the same or next day.

"Although SUI is not a life-threatening condition, it can severely impact a woman’s quality of life" said Dr. Jonathan Weinstein, Frisco Womens Health, "Many women are looking for an improvement in their symptoms so that they can enjoy routine activities again such as exercising or playing with their children. The Renessa® treatment offers women a non-surgical option to reduce or eliminate their incontinence episodes so they can get back to enjoying their lives without worrying about leaks."

Most women treated with Renessa experience improvement within 60-90 days. In two large U.S. Clinical Trials, three quarters of women treated with Renessa experienced a significant improvement in their symptoms and quality of life, and nearly 60% were able to eliminate pad use. In addition, the Renessa treatment is very safe; there have been no serious complications reported to date.

For more information about the Renessa®  treatment, contact Dr. Jonathan Weinstein with Frisco Womens Health at 972-668-8300.
