I am a Texas native who loves being back in Texas. The Ohio State University exposed me to the full breath of plastic surgery in both the cosmetic and reconstructive realm. Though my focus is now aesthetic, I use the foundation of reconstruction to help patients achieve their dream results. I am board certified in general surgery and therefore have a lot of experience doing body procedures such as breast augmentation, abdominoplasty, fat transfer. I learned from talented sub specialists and also really enjoy facial procedures such as blepharoplasties, facelifts, and rhinoplasties.
Dr. Arredondo offers his surgical patients 50 units of Botox complimentary. Please inquire for details and scheduling.
Dr Arredondo is a top notch doctor and person. I had a breast lift and augmentation done and a tummy tuck done by him. Both procedures went well. He explained everything of what he would be doing and what results I could expect to see. He was spot on. From the moment you walk in his office, his staff and him make you feel comfortable and not just a number. I trust him completely and have made him cookies to show him how much I appreciate him and his staff. If you are looking for a plastic surgeon, Dr Arredondo is the doctor to have you do your surgery.
Wonderful and excellent experience with Doctor Arredondo, I had a breast reduction and the result exceeded all my expectations, he is a very sociable person, super professional, he explains the entire process clearly, I loved it and I would choose him again as my doctor. trust.. I recommend it 100%
I had my breast lift, TT, MR, lipo & J Plasma to the back, flanks and arms back in May. My experience has been nothing short of phenomenal. I love my results!!! Dr Arredondo and the staff at APS are amazing. They guided me through the whole process. After surgery, Dr. A was just a text and call away from answering any of my questions. I’ve recommended him to many of my friends. If I could give him 10+ stars, I would!
I am so impressed with the entire process from the awesome front desk staff to assistants and the amazing Dr. Arredondo! He is truly a rare find… he is honest, caring and really assists in finding the perfect procedures to accomplish your goals. His calming and honest approach is exactly what I needed in a surgeon! My results are already exceeding my expectations! I would recommend this awesome group to all of my family and friends! Thank you Dr. Arredondo for assisting in becoming the best version of me! Your talent and skill set are remarkable!
I am absolutely thrilled to write this glowing 5-star review for the exceptional services provided by Dr. Arredondo. I recently underwent a breast implant replacement due to capsular contracture, along with scar revision and some liposuction, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Dr. Arredondo's expertise and precision in performing these procedures have truly transformed my confidence and appearance. Furthermore, the procedure MyEllevate, which Dr. Arredondo also performed, has exceeded all my expectations. The results thus far have been nothing short of remarkable, and I am incredibly grateful for the expertise and care provided by Dr. Arredondo. Not only is Dr. Arredondo a skilled and talented surgeon, but the entire staff at the practice is equally amazing. From the moment I walked in, I was made to feel welcome and comfortable, and their professionalism and warmth made the entire experience even more positive. I highly recommend Dr. Arredondo and his team to anyone considering cosmetic procedures. Thank you, Dr. Arredondo, for your exceptional care and for helping me achieve the results I had always hoped for.
Dr.Arredondo brought my confidence back after having 2 breast surgeries with another doctor and not getting the results I wanted to even having to loose one implant and was seeing more as a money sing than a patient. We’ll Dr.Arredondo brought all that trust back to me to trust him with my 3rd breast surgery and fix my issues from the previous surgeries . My recovery was so easy this time and now I am going to 6 weeks post op and I’m loving my body more than ever . Thank you for listening to me and understanding my needs and wants when it came to my surgery and giving me just that .
Dr. Arredondo performed a mommy makeover on me. I had 20 year old implants removed/replaced, a breast lift, lypo, and full tummy tuck. I have always had a straight body and now I have a waist! I love my body MORE NOW than before I even got pregnant! I highly recommend Dr. Arredondo.
Amazing surgeon and staff! Super friendly and professional. I always felt safe in their hands. He truly goes above and beyond to make his patients feel safe and taken care of. End result was better than I ever imagined! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience
Dr. Arredondo was absolutely incredible from the very first consultation. He answered all my questions with expertise and confidence, and helped me feel at ease from the start. My surgery went smoothly, and the recovery has been as easy as I could have expected. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Dr. Arredondo and his staff are top notch. He is great at asking questions to make sure he is clear about the results you expect. He takes time to explain the procedure and what to expect throughout the process. He is responsive to your questions. I highly recommend Dr. Arredondo to my friends and family. “As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.”
Implants can help to restore volume after breast reduction, but the correlation of grams removed to implant volume isn’t always 1:1. However, you can use sizers in office to get a good idea of what size implant would be best for you. It is important to consider carefully what your goals are regarding the implants. Often patients don’t miss the size but are looking for upper pole fullness, or cleavage. I if this is a case, often a smaller implant will be able to add that fullness without having to dramatically increase size. Another great option can be fat grafting. A consultation with a plastic surgeon will help you to decide what’s right for you. Best of luck!
While implant position can change after 1 year, they tend to be minimal or subtle changes. From the pictures the implants appear to be well positioned. Your main concern with the upper pole fullness may be from the profile. It may be worth considering a change to a slightly lower profile to give you less upper pole fullness. With Natrelle that would be the SSM or moderate profile. Best of luck!
Choosing the right size for a breast augmentation can be so very difficult. Unfortunately, the only way to change this is with revision surgery. Going down in size can be challenging. If trying to go down significantly in size additional procedures may be recommended. Other factors can impact the overall look as well such as, location of the implants (above or below the muscle), profile, saline or silicone, and if silicone type of gel. Your best bet of course is to schedule a consultation to discuss almo do this and see what your best options are moving forward. Best of luck!
Congratulations on the weight loss that is an amazing achievement. Combining an abdominoplasty with liposuction can help to achieve a small waist, it can also help to provide more shape posteriorly. A second option is to perform a 360 lift, basically a tummy tuck that goes all the way around. This is a bigger recovery, but often provides a more dramatic result. From the photos you have provided, it appears you have loose skin on your back, so this could be of benefit. Lastly, it does appear you would benefit from a breast lift, rather than implants alone. The deflation and downward pointing nipples will result in a “waterfall” deformity with implants alone. It will look like the nipple is falling off, or hanging off the implant. A second option would be to perform fat grafting at the time of mastopexy. This can avoid needing an implant, but provides a slightly different look than an implant can achieve. Hope this has helped. Again congratulations on your weight loss, and good luck on the remainder of you journey.
Great question. Often patient’s are looking to combine procedures to reduce recovery time. But you raise an interesting question, would one doctor be able to achieve the results you want in each of these areas? The short answer is yes, many or all of these can be combined into one procedure. A more common reason for dividing procedures into multiple surgery’s is for patient safety. Occasionally, the combination of procedures will take too long and splitting them up into more than one surgery is safer for the patient. Choosing the right surgeon for you is important. And look at their results to ensure they match your goals. A surgeon with experience in massive weight loss and body contouring should be able to comfortably address these issues as they are commonly affected areas with massive weight loss. It would be best to obtain at least 2 consults. Hope that information helps.
