It took me years to find a trustworthy doctor, and I am SO GLAD that I came across Dr. Derrick. My friend had a breast augmentation, and I loved her look. She had wonderful things to say about Dr. Derrick, so I took a leap of faith and scheduled a consult. The entire staff was amazing, and Dr. Derrick was very professional, personable, knowledgeable, and kind. I had a breast lift and augmentation in January, and I am OBSESSED with my results. I breastfed two kids for three years, so I had severely saggy and loose breasts - the before photos are so bad! They were also very unsymmetrical. Now, they are pretty even, full, and so beautiful. I have so much more confidence in my clothes and swimsuits now. The staff have been wonderful in supporting me throughout the post-op process. I am VERY happy with this doctor, and HIGHLY recommend giving him a chance. It has been a 10/10 experience through and through.
I couldn't be happier with my results and experience at Dr. Derrick’s office. I was treated like a VIP from start to finish, and I don't say that lightly. From the start, they were communicative, friendly, approachable and reassuring. They were reliable with scheduling, they checked in with me, and they made me feel like I was valued and needed! The surgery itself was like watching a team who had done this thousands of times (which they have) queue up for another standard surgery. They knew what to do or have on hand for any situation that may arise. It was incredible to watch and be a part of - this team is as professional as it gets. Dr. Derrick himself was great, clearly knew exactly what needed to be done and how to do it. I was treated with the utmost respect by all members of the team, and Christi Hernandez, who is the cosmetic coordinator was always reassuring, confident and knowledgeable - and very friendly. Everyone just knew exactly what to do. I wish all my medical procedures had gone this well and this smoothly with a team this strong. My results are amazing. I could not imagine being this satisfied. I highly recommend Dr. D and his team. So professional yet personal. Thank you again for everything, Dr. Derrick, and the team for a beautiful surgery experience with life changing results!
I was NOT someone I ever thought would get plastic surgery. But my final child broke my abs open! I never thought I would wear a bikini again... I had multiple consults but knew Dr. Derrick was the one when I met him. My surgery was a far easier recovery than I ever anticipated. I am now 3 months post-op and feel like a completely normal person. Follow his instructions and you will do great! Can't wait to see how my progress continues.
Went In for a breast lift and the whole team was amazing and very informative. I’m so glad I chose them to do my procedure. I’m very happy with my results. Thank you to DR Chase and Christi and the whole team.
Dr Derrick and his staff were awesome. I originally came in because I was unhappy with a previous breast augmentation from another office 6 yrs ago. Dr Derrick explained that I had capsular contracture and needed to have the implants removed and new ones could be put in. I was very nervous but they all made me feel comfortable and I’m so happy with my results! Christi the patient coordinator even helped me get a refund from my original implants that had to be removed. I would highly recommend this office!
I cannot recommend Dr. Derrick at the Sherman location enough! After seeing multiple other surgeons and feeling extremely defeated with my personal choice to remove my 10 year old breast implants for health reasons, Dr. Derrick and his team made me feel confident with my decision. Several other doctors told me taking them out would not look good, I should just replace the old implants with new ones, Breast Implant Illness isn’t real, etc. but Dr. Derrick listened, respected my decision, thoroughly explained the pros and cons with all of my options and ultimately let me decide what I wanted without giving an unsolicited opinion. Within a month my surgery was booked, my old implants were removed and I have never felt better! I am so happy with the results and feel more confident now than before with my implants. I cannot thank him and his staff enough for the care and attention to detail from the day I had my consultation to the weeks after surgery. They were so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process. Speaking of his staff… Christi, Dr. Derrick’s cosmetic coordinator, was the most amazing person to lean on during the entire process. The day I called her to tell her what I needed/wanted, she had me in their office the next few days for an appointment. Not only did she ensure I felt confident with my choice, she also helped me work with filing a claim with my old implant company from a previous surgery (not with Dr. Derrick) and made sure I knew she was on my team. If it weren’t for her, I’m not sure I would’ve have chosen Regional Plastic Surgery Center in Sherman.

Extremely happy with my results. Well worth it! Dr Derek was very helpful with any questions. He took the time to listen to any concerns I had. I was able to schedule my procedure quickly with no issues.
From initial consultation to post op, Dr. Derrick was amazing. He listened to all my concerns, answered all my questions and was extremely thorough about what to expect. My results are wonderful and beyond expectations! I had a DR repair, TT, Lipo, BA and BL! I highly recommend Dr. Derrick and his team.
Dr. Derrick and his entire staff are amazing! I felt comfortable from my first phone call, through surgery, and all visits in between. My results astound me and are still getting better (almost 2 months post op). My questions were always answered and my concerns were quickly addressed. If you're like me, you've contacted several places and been reading reviews until your eyes cross. Well, you can stop now and go for it. Choose Dr. Derrick!
Thank you for your question. After years of having breast implants this is the biggest question of patients considering having them removed. The amount of breast tissue can fluctuate over those 9 years from a variety of reasons such as weight changes or pregnancy. Ultimately if you have made the decision to remove them for health and lifestyle reasons then that is the most important part. You should visit with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether or not a lift is recommended at the time of removal depending on you exam and the amount of skin excess. Good luck
Thank you for your question. Photos would be helpful but if you have saline implants and one ruptures then you will see some deflation of one breast. If you have gel implants then you are unlikely to feel the gel from the rupture unless there is leakage outside of the capsule which can form small nodules. Capsular contracture is when the capsule around the implant tightens and will feel more firm and often pulls the implant higher on the chest wall. Implant palpability can be bothersome to patients as well and can become more noticeable with a decrease in weight or from having larger implants for a many years. The stress of the weight of the implant on the skin of the lower part of the breast can cause it to stretch and feel thinner to you and thus you can feel the more. Ultimately a visit with your board certified plastic surgeon is important to determine the cause of your concerns and direct treatment.
Thank you for your question. The options for breast augmentation are fat grafting or implants. With fat grafting your own fat is harvested using liposuction, the good cells isolated, and that fat used to increase the volume of the breasts. This would be the most "jiggly" as it is your tissue but has limitations as far as how much fat you have to be transferred and how much volume can be added in a single session. The other option is implants with either gel, saline, or structured saline. Of the implant types the gel (silicone) implants have the most similar consistency to your natural breast tissue and will feel the most similar. The idea of being jiggly or bouncy would also come from having skin that is not being stretched. Depending on the size of implant used, the skin is stretched and does not have much extra to allow for jiggling. Once the implants settle and the skin relaxes you should more bounce.
Thank you for the question and for the multiple view photos. Based on the photos it appears that you have excess skin that would best be addressed with a tummy tuck. As far as combined surgeries, I would not recommend combining all those procedures because of the length of time under anesthesia. I try to limit outpatient procedures to under 6 hours total. During your consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon you should discuss your areas of concern and what can safely be accomplished to achieve your goals.
Thank you for your question. Based on the information you provided, you do not need to lose more weight before proceeding with a tummy tuck. However, if you are trying to lose weight then it is best done before any body contouring procedure to help optimize your results. If you are planning to wait before having more children then you should be able to proceed with a tummy tuck and muscle repair. It is important to discuss future pregnancy plans during your consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.
