Procedures I'm known for

If you’re a mom, chances are you spend a significant amount of your time serving the needs of others. Why not pamper yourself for a change? With a mommy makeover, mothers can correct many of the physical side effects of pregnancy and breastfeeding, bringing back their pre-baby bodies

“I am personally very interested in this procedure, and I’m always trying to improve it. I constantly look for those techniques that improve the patient’s experience and result. That’s why I enjoy doing it, you can really see the change. Patients’ pant sizes go down right away, and they just look fantastic when they are done,” says Dr. Rios. As a native of south Texas, Dr. Rios is committed to providing the best tummy tuck and patient experience for his community. “I have a lot of patients who have tried on their own. They exercise, they eat right, but it’s hard to get those abdominal muscles to tighten back up. They get to that point where they say ‘There’s nothing more I can do. I have been trying my best,’ and it’s nice to be able to get in there and help them get to that next level.”

Total years in practice: 26

I am from the Rio Grande Valley and I am proud of this fact. My father was the first plastic surgeon in the Valley and I was fortunate to practice with him for several years. If I can practice with the humility and compassion that he displayed for his patients, my career will be a success.

Consultation Fee: $50. If a consult schedules for surgery, we apply the consult cost to the fee of the surgery.
