Procedures I'm known for
Post-Pregnancy Procedures
As a mother, you dedicate a great deal of yourself to loving and rearing your children. This begins with pregnancy, when your body undergoes many dramatic changes that can affect your appearance. These changes are accepted and lived with while you put some of your own needs aside to give your family everything. Eventually, there comes a time when you’re ready to re-focus the lens on yourself again. In some cases, though, mothers find that a simple diet and exercise regimen isn’t quite enough to get them back to the body that feels like their own. This is where a mommy makeover at my Los Angeles facility can help. A mommy makeover is a series of procedures, often including breast enhancement, a tummy tuck, and/or other enhancements. We can discuss the mommy makeover variation that’s right for you to ensure your needs are addressed and your aesthetic goals are met. Together, we’ll collaborate to come up with a personalized approach that will leave you feeling beautiful and confident.
Breast Surgery
For many women, their sense of femininity is often tied to the appearance of their bodies and, specifically, their breasts. How they feel in their skin can impact their overall confidence, whether clothed in public or during intimate bedroom moments. The reality is that not all women are born with full, perky breasts or attractive nipples that they’re proud to show off. Age can also affect the overall fullness, shape, and perkiness of breasts, as can pregnancy and extreme weight loss or gain. For some women, breasts that are too large can also impact their comfort and confidence. At my Los Angeles plastic surgery office, I offer a broad range of breast enhancement procedures that will give you the figure you’ve long desired. I specialize in breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reductions (including male breast reduction), nipple and areola surgeries, and breast asymmetry correction. I also do breast revisions, including breast implant revision and general breast reconstruction.
Body Contouring
Body contouring comprises a number of different techniques and approaches. These range from various forms of liposuction to more aggressive surgeries, such as a tummy tuck, Brazilian butt lift (BBL), or mommy makeover—all of which I perform here at my Los Angeles plastic surgery center. Liposuction, which is one of the most common cosmetic surgery operations in the United States, involves removing fat with a suction tube via a very small incision in the skin. Doing so re-shapes the body so it is smoother, smaller, and more contoured. I specialize in power-assisted liposuction, tumescent liposuction, ultrasonic liposuction, laser-assisted liposuction, and SmartLipo Laser Liposuction. The approach I take will depend on your specific needs and goals. In addition to the above, I perform BBLs—which involves taking fat from other parts of the body and strategically placing it in the buttocks—as well as tummy tucks, mommy makeovers, and labiaplasty.
