After two children and 30 pounds of weight gain, I had been considering a mommy makeover for many months. After several consultations with other surgeons, when I met Dr. Ogilvie, I knew I had found my surgeon. Dr. Ogilvie’s expertise and passion for his craft were evident right from the beginning. He patiently listened to my all of concerns, thoroughly explained the entire process, answered all my questions, and set realistic expectations. Dr. Ogilvie was honest, caring, and personable and his bedside manner put me completely at ease. Dr. Ogilvie and his staff were friendly, caring, informative and were always available to answer any questions I might have. My mommy makeover included lipo 360, breast augmentation with a lift, tummy tuck and skin tightening. Dr. Ogilvie gave me a phenomenal result, which I absolutely love. This was truly a boutique experience, which they guided me through at every step. Dr. Ogilvie’s attention to detail and dedication to his patients and their results is what truly sets him apart from other surgeons. My results are nothing short of amazing and I cannot recommend Dr. Ogilvie and his staff enough. Do yourself a favor and look no further. Dr. Ogilvie is the BEST!!
Dr. Ogilvie was wonderful as was his staff! They’re kind, take their time with you and never dismiss any of your concerns. They go above and beyond to not only make sure you’re comfortable when you’re in their care but also when you’re home. I was so comfortable knowing that if I ever had a question or concern, they were always available. Dr. Ogilvie makes everything easy to understand and the cherry on top: the results are incredible!
I have been a patient of Dr. Ogilvie for several years and have had various procedures done and I must say, I am always extremely happy with my results. The most recent procedure I had was 360 liposuction and an OG Curve BBL. Let me start by saying, Dr. Ogilvie is truly an artist and an extremely gifted plastic surgeon. Dr. O and his staff are extremely welcoming, warm, professional, knowledgeable, and informative. They take the time to listen to you, understand what you are looking for, and answer any and all of your questions. They make the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible, it really was a wonderful and seamless experience from start to finish. Special shoutout to his PA Lauren, who is extremely caring and always there to answer any questions I had. Lauren and Dr. O made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Dr. Ogilvie is extremely honest, realistic, and down to earth with a less-is-more approach, and his bedside manner is impeccable. I have to admit at first I was nervous to undergo such a significant procedure, particularly because I did not want to look fake or overdone. After meeting with him and his staff about this procedure, I felt extremely confident and at ease with his advice and his plan and was instantly ready to move forward. I trusted him completely throughout the entire process and knew I was in the best hands. My results are phenomenal and even better than I hoped for. Dr. O and his staff called to check on me after my surgery and made sure to let me know that they were just a text or phone call away if I needed anything at all or had any questions. The patient care was outstanding from start to finish. Dr. O is a perfectionist with his work and I am truly in awe of my results. He ABSOLUTELY nailed it! I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Ogilvie and Ogilvie Plastic Surgery and would never trust anyone else with my care. If you are looking for a plastic surgeon, do yourself a favor and book a consultation with him today!

From a volume perspective, there is not a significant difference between 250 and 300 cc. In fact, most implants look smaller, once they are in the body, and many patients say they regret not going bigger instead of wishing they went smaller.That being said, the most important aspect in sizing implants is finding a base width that matches your chest wall, which can vary depending on the brand, volume and projection of the implant.The volumes you are considering are only around a cup size increase, which I do not believe would be too much for your frame but you do want to make sure the implant is not too wide or too narrow for your chest.I recommend having a discussion with your board certified plastic surgeon to understand the variables of implant sizing and choosing the right implant for you.
Keloids after any surgery can be a very distressing problem and can obviously affect the overall result.The key to avoiding keloids is precision technique and tension free closure, however, genetics obviously play a role as well and sometimes is unavoidable.There are other modalities available to help alleviate keloids, namely localized steroid injections and even the use of low dose radiation has been proven effective in reducing or reversing keloid formation.I would recommend having an open and honest discussion with your surgeon and choose someone who has extensive experience with treating keloids as well.
Implant profiles have more to do with the height of the implant or how much breast projection they will give. A high profile implant is more narrow than a moderate profile but that really only comes into play if your chest wall or base width is more narrow than what is common.I believe the biggest question when choosing an implant profile is how much you want your breasts to stand out.I would recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon to better help you understand the differences and find an implant that would best work for you.
Hello PennyLane77,thank you for your inquiry.Liposuction to reduce the breasts is an effective method, however, I would caution there are some limitations. First, traditional liposuction can be much more specific in how much tissue is removed. With liposuction, you are manly suctioning out whatever fat is present but this will do nothing to actually reduce breast tissue (not fatty tissue). Second, if you have overly saggy breasts, liposuction will not significantly improve breast sag. Yes with liposuction, there is some small retraction that occurs, however, this would only be beneficial with someone who has minimal breast sag.I suggest speaking with a board-certified plastic surgeon who does awake liposuction to get the best understanding of what procedure would work best for you.
Hi mliamm9, thank you for your inquiry.Based upon your photos, I do not believe you have lymphedema but I do believe you have several issues at play.First, you have areas of fat deposition around your thighs and knees. Secondly, you have some areas of loose skin. And lastly, you have circumferential cellulite.Before you undergo any body contouring procedure, I would recommend you be within 5-10 lbs of your goal body weight. I believe you would benefit most from a multi-modality approach to improve your thigh appearance. I think some form of liposuction with fat transfer to the buttock would help your shape. Some form a skin tightening, either invasively or non-invasively, would help the areas of loose skin. Lastly, a cellulite treatment such as Aveli, would help improve your skin contour.Please meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon to get the best understanding of various techniques and devise a plan that would best work for you.
