I am sorry this happened. You appear to have had a lower abdomen liposuction. This can be improved. Please see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss. A personal examination is needed to tell you exactly what needs to be done.

Surgery of any kind can bring to the surface underlying conditions such as low thyroid. I suggest you see your regular doctor for a full evaluation, including your thyroid levels. Best wishes.

Usually re recommend waiting six months after an operation before having another that involves the same area. So late August, early September would be the usual time. Hope this helps. E Morgan MD Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.

It is possible that the chin implant or the face lift led to clenching of the masseter muscle that has now become chronic. If so, Botox will alleviate the symptoms. And examination by a Board Certified Plastic or Facial Plastic Surgeon should be able to confirm this. Treatment is Botox, usually repeated every 3-6 months. Hope this helps.

Liposuction can be done a second time if there is fat under the skin to remove. One can't tell from your photo if this is the case or if the fat is internal. I suggest you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. One can 't tell if your desired look is reasonable from the photos since yours are close up and the others are at a normal distance. And the others do not have profile views. Your plastic surgeon can better tell you after examining you.

CavilLipo is a Chinese ultrasound machine that is approved for use in the U.S.A. There is no evidence that it will dissolve fat, drain lymphatic fluid or improve surgical results. If your liposuction was done recently, you are seeing swelling after surgery that will take six months to subside. You have a shelf where the liposuction ended. Your doctor did not feather the result. This can be treated but not until 6 months after surgery. CavilLipo will not correct this. One can't tell from the photo if you have fibrosis (scar formation) - it takes at least 3 months for this to develop. If surgery was more recent, it will not be fibrosis. Hope this helps.

A general surgeon has absolutely no formal training in cosmetic plastic surgery including none in liposuction or BBL, which is the most dangerous cosmetic procedure. It is legal for him- or for any doctor to do your surgery. Most hospitals would not permit him to do the surgery as it is not in his field of training. I consider it unwise on your part to put yourself in the hands of a general surgeon for cosmetic plastic  surgery just as it would be unwise for me to have a cosmetic plastic surgeon operate on my liver. There is recognized training in surgical sub-specialties like plastic surgery for a reason - knowledge and competence.

Thank you for asking about improving your liosuction result.

  • I am so sorry you have had such a disappointing experience.
  • Thighs are a challenge and your legs presented a challenge at the start because you had heavier legs, irregular fat distribution and irregular skin. And you've had three operations in a year. 
  • What you can do for yourself is exercises that bulk up the thigh muscle to give the skin more support but you may already do this. 
  • You need to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon willing to be honest about expectations who will map out with you every area of disappointment. A combination of radiofrequency skin tightening, small cannula liposuction and possibly additional fat grafts. 
  • Your realistic goal should not be perfection or turning back the clock but visible improvement you can live with. Hope this helps. Best wishes. Elizabeth Morgan MD PHD FACS  Board Certified Plastic Surgeon,

Thank you for asking about your post-baby 'tummy' that won't go away.

  • Your profile photo clearly shows that you have very stretched tummy muscle -
  • You need a tummy tuck, with some liposuction on the sides to restore your waist.
  • There are various kinds of mini-tucks - what you need is surgery that tightens the muscle from ribs to pubis. Many mini-tucks stop at the navel. That will give you a horrible result - you need full muscle repair. 
  • Then a mini-tuck removes a little excess skin which may be all you need.
  • Please see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon - and enjoy getting your body back! Hope this helps. Best wishes. Elizabeth Morgan MD PHD FACS  Board Certified Plastic Surgeon,

Thank you for asking about improving your breast augmentation result.

  • You have a reasonable question about a challenging issue - 
  • High round large breasts are hard to maintain - gravity pulls tissue and implants down. 
  • It is a look typically seen in teenagers during hormonal changes.
  • However to get closer to that look you may need a larger implant, a more projecting high profile implant, tightening of the implant pocket and/or internal support of the implant with ADM (supportive internal mesh.) 
  • So see your surgeon, discuss your concerns, your options and the cost - and the unsatisfactory scar. It looks as though a small revision or steroid injection will take care of it. Hope this helps. Best wishes. Elizabeth Morgan MD PHD FACS  Board Certified Plastic Surgeon,

Pec Implants

Finally feel comfortable wearing clothes that fit

Since I can remember Ive struggled with my ribs sticking out significantly away from the rest of my body. I would constantly slouch or where loose fitting shirts. When you are already thin everything shows up. I tried traditional exercise, trainers, etc. I finally decided so see what other options I might have. After a consultation with Dr. Morgan I knew pec implants were going to the exactly what Ive always wanted. Not only did she answer all my questions, but also walked through dozens of shapes and sizes based on the look I told her I was looking. I told her I just wanted a size to balance out my ribs. What we decided on was perfect. I still have the option of working out if I want to get bigger mass, but from a starting point that is, what I wouldve called a negative starting point, normal. I also received liposuction on the lower abdomen. Something I have always had and again shows so much more because I am thinner. My own mother knows how much I have struggled with these things throughout my life. When I finally went through with this and she saw the results she said "I bet you wish you did this a decade ago, don't you?" I would highly recommend Dr. Morgan to anyone who wants a surgeon who cares about every step. She is just as thorough from the consultation all the way to the final follow.

I had a great experience

My experience with Dr. Morgan was excellent, she is so caring and understandable. I had my Upper and Lower Eye Lids done. I was able to quickly book a consultation and scheduled the procedure right away. It has been 6 months since I had my surgery done. I'm super happy with my result! I will definitely referred Dr. Morgan to anyone without a doubt.

Incision Seems Irregular and Asymmetrical.

I researched this procedure for about two years and have seen at least a hundred photos taken right after stitches were removed. I have never seen a photo of an incision that slanted down on one side, they (the incisions) all tucked under the nostrils. My surgeon is excellent, with a great reputation, but wants me to wait at least 6 months, I would prefer to get it done and over with because it just doesn't look right. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Updated on 19 Apr 2018: I spoke with my surgeon this morning and understand that the swelling needs to subside more... What concerns me is that that the surgeon won't even acknowledge that the incision is uneven. I've sent several photos and was told by the surgeon that they don't need to look at them, and said it's all in my head. I would feel much better if there was at least some acknowledgment from the surgeon as to what I'm talking about and serious assurance that it can and will be fixed (with no additional charges). I had some cosmetic surgery 15 years ago and there was an issue... The surgeon acknowledged the problem and offered to fix it for free. He did fix it and everything turned out great! I saw him a few years ago for a septoplasty and he did a little rhinoplasty as well. We have a great relationship and the only reason I didn't see him, for this is that he didn't have any experience in doing lip lifts. I understand that mistakes are made, but would like assurance that the surgeon understands and sees what I'm talking about (at least look at my photos), is that too much to ask? Updated on 19 Apr 2018: Sorry, poor grammar! "and said it's all in my head." correction, "The surgeon told me that it's all in my head." Updated on 20 Apr 2018: The left side incision still drops down 3mm, while the right side looks fine. The fact that the surgeon is gaslighting me (trying to convince me that I'm imagining the uneven incision), frightens me. I'm afraid that it's so messed up and not repairable that they're pretending there's nothing wrong... The plan was to take 6mm off the left side and 5mm off the right side to improve the symmetry. It's now much more asymmetrical than before. Thank you all for your comments! Updated on 26 Apr 2018: Dear kind, supportive ladies (yes, you two :-), My plastic surgeon really came through for me! I sent her more photos, asking about when I could use makeup to cover up the scars on the left side and as soon as she saw those photos, she understood exactly what I was talking about! That was Monday, and she had me come in the very next day and said, “Yes, this isn’t about swelling so we can do a revision sooner rather than later…”. She said that the swelling wouldn't be a problem and would have no effect on the revision. She was very kind, caring, and acknowledged that it wasn’t all in my head. She wanted to revise it at no charge, and truly does want everything to be set right, and her patients to be happy. She did the revision, and it already looks much better even though I’m still swollen (it’s only been two days) on that side. Her staff is awesome too, Stephanie and especially Maggie, who listened to me cry on the phone (for about a half an hour) and was very empathetic and supportive. So, I’m now giving it a thumbs up! Thank you for all your caring support and encouragement!!! Updated on 26 Apr 2018: This is a before photo. I'll show better after photos once the swelling goes down.

I loved the results! My skin looks great

Dr. Morgan is very professional she took time to explain how my treatment was going to be. I had a SkinPen treatment and I’m going to have my second one next month. I loved the results! My skin looks great. I highly recommend Dr. Morgan!

Botox

I cut my botox bills in half! And look better!

Let me start by saying I've had botox at least every 6 months for the past 12 years. I've been to probably 5 different plastic surgeons/dermatologists for this in Atlanta. I recently went to Dr. Morgan after feeling like my eye brows were always slightly drooping and the hollow of my eyes got a bit worse after botox with my previous provider (my previous provider said these were minor and were just the side effects!). Dr.Morgan immediately explained how the slight droop can happen as well as why and how the eyes can get worse. She said it may be that I was simply getting too much botox overall, even if it was placed correctly. She suggested we start low and strategically place the botox and then come back after 10 days to reevaluate and add more if needed, so we can make certain she did not overly inject and be able to know my perfect amount. No other provider has ever done this. I didn't need any more than this baseline initial amount! Dr. Morgan also suggested I stop getting any botox at my crows feet and instead to up my at home skin care game, combined with microneedling and see how that approach goes to battling my crow's feet fine lines (while helping collagen everywhere). My decreased botox bills pay for my new skincare and regimen. I'm thrilled. My boyfriend went to Dr.Morgan for his super stubborn 11's after my experience. She took the same approach to methodically figuring out what he really needed in terms of dose and also even tested which injectable worked best on him (hint: he needs way more than me and one injectable clearly worked more than the other!). Dr. Morgan treats each case as an individual. I feel I'm in great hands with her.

Phenomenal Doctor

My experience was phenomenal to have breast augmentation. I have never felt so relaxed, comfortable and trusting in the hands of a doctor. Dr. Morgan, and staff have treated me with respect and showed compassion for my opinions and concerns. Dr Morgan, and staff listened, responded and made me feel confident in myself and my decision. The professionalism, timely manner, and kindness showed to me from Dr. Morgan and staff has made my experience an excellent one! I am so grateful and thankful for my interaction with these remarkable people!! Thank you

Breast Reduction

My Incredible Experience with Dr. Morgan

Dr.Morgan was kind and helpful and most importantly attentive to my surgery goal. I've waited to have a breast reduction for years and I'm pleased to say that I couldn't be happier with the the outcome. When I saw other doctors about this surgery they weren't nearly as professional and sensitive as Dr. Morgan. She always went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable and that I always had a full understanding of what was going on. This surgery has completely changed my life and if it weren't for Dr. Morgan I don't know where I would be.

Implant Removal and Placement with New Implants

Dr. Morgan and her staff are amazing. From the minute I walked through the door, I felt I was in capable and caring hands. Dr. Morgan treated me with respect , kindness and was very willing to answer questions and help talk through and calm any fears I might have. After the surgery, she was actually there when I woke up, which really made me feel good. She even called and checked on me later in the day to make sure I was feeling ok and answer any questions. I am thrilled with the way the surgery went and the end result is WONDERFUL. I am very happy. Dr. Morgan is a brilliant surgeon and I would highly recommend her to others. She is truly a wonderful doctor and also a very special person.

Dr. Morgan is Excellent! - Atlanta, GA

Hi went to see Dr. Morgan about getting Botox based on all of the other wonderful reviews. This was my second time getting Botox and I really appreciated the way she took time to go over everything with me. She is a really lovely person and very thorough. I am super happy with the results and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
