Procedures I'm known for
Post-Pregnancy Procedures
Pregnancy and childbirth can result in drastic changes to the body, which cannot be fixed with a strict diet or a rigorous workout regimen. With a procedure called the mommy makeover, however, we can bring back the body you once had—and even improve upon it. This fully customized treatment incorporates various surgeries—tummy tucks, liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lifts—intended to address the physical changes that occur in the breasts and stomach. Moms who complain about deflated breasts can opt for an augmentation; those with sagging may benefit from a lift. These two surgeries can also be combined.
A tummy tuck can tighten abdominal skin and repair the muscles when diastasis recti, or ab muscle separation, occurs. Liposuction can be incorporated to tackle pockets of resistant fat. Once we assess your goals, needs, and concerns, we can create the best mommy makeover plan for you.
Breast Surgery
Many patients in the Destin, Florida area opt for breast enhancement surgery to improve or restore the appearance of their breasts. At my practice, I use imaging technology that allows the patient to visualize how their breasts will look following surgery.
There are various surgical options to choose from: if you’ve always wanted ample, shapely breasts, or if you’ve had a baby and experienced volume loss, you might consider a breast augmentation. My “no scar” technique results in natural-looking breasts and minimal downtime.
A breast lift brings perkiness back to drooping breasts by eliminating excess skin. This is also a wonderful procedure for new mothers as well as patients who’ve experienced drastic breast changes due to aging or weight loss. Breast reduction surgery can help patients dealing with the physical and emotional discomfort caused by large breasts—and can also be performed on men, who are self-conscious about their enlarged breasts.
Hip & Butt Enhancement
Over the years, butt enhancement surgery has become extremely popular among my Florida patients as a way to get the sexy, feminine curves and shapely buttocks of their dreams.
In the past, gluteal implants were typically used to augment the buttocks. Today, fat transfer via a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a more popular path to achieving a curvy, hourglass look. The BBL involves taking excess fat from areas such as the tummy, waist, hips, and thighs via liposuction and safely transferring it to the buttocks. During a BBL, I use a special fat-grafting system that processes the tissue quickly, resulting in better and more effective results than previous methods could offer.
