QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Thank you for your question.   There is no age limit per se for breast reconstruction.   As long as you are healthy then after a detailed consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, a treatment plan can be achieved. Best of luck and congrats on being 10 years cancer free!!

Thank you for the question.  Photos would help us answer your question better.   Snoopy breast can be corrected by either a lift or repositioning the implant where it can directly communicate with the overlying tissue.  It sounds as your implant is either partially of fully covered by the muscle. Depending on the position of the implant, appropriate revision can correct your concern.

Thanks for your questions and photos.   They may be other options and without an exam and listening to your wishes and desires it’s difficult for us to recommend a plan.

Thank you for your question and pic.  Everything appears to be healing nicely and some of the liens are most likely from the bra due to swelling of the breast tissue.  Best of luck.

Thank you for your question. Please discuss size with your surgeon.   Size is such a subjective measure that its difficult for us to understand the desire of each patient's size.   Therefore it is important for a dialogue with your surgeon so some limitations can also be explained.   

I generally use larger implants than the final fill.  Hope this helps and best of luck.

Thank you for your question and concerns.    It appears that your implants are located under the muscle as this is how some reconstructions look a couple years following the original surgery because of muscle animation over the years.   The patients that I see for this concern, I generally recommend going over the muscle (prepectoral breast reconstruction) to eliminate the animation, discomfort from the muscle and majority of bumpiness that you describe.   Hope this information helps and best of luck.

Thank you for your question.  Please make sure that you notify your surgeon regarding any antibiotics that have been prescribed.  It is important that your plastic surgeon is aware of this important information.   Best of luck.

Thank you for your question and pic.   It appears that you may have a spitting suture which is not uncommon with this type of procedure.  Please see your plastic surgeon to see if by chance the suture can be seen and removed.   best of luck.

Thank you for your question and concern.   Everything seems to be healing nicely and I recommend asking your plastic surgeon for the detailed management of the scar.   Best of luck.

Thank you for your question.  Reconstructed nipples shrink anywhere from 50-80% depending on the quality of tissue that we are starting with.  Please be patient as you will see some changes over the next 3 months.  Also bring your concerns up with your plastic surgeon.  Best of luck.

Absolutely Wonderful

In searching for the right surgeon, I kept seeing Dr. Gabriel’s name come up again and again — so I booked a consultation. I had met with other surgeons, but none came close to the warmth, reassurance, and confidence he radiated. From the moment we spoke, I knew he was the one. He truly listens, never rushes you, and makes you feel like your concerns and hopes genuinely matter. I felt instantly safe, seen, and understood in his care. He is not only an incredibly skilled surgeon, but also one of the kindest, most charismatic doctors I’ve ever met. On the day of my procedure, every single nurse and hospital staff member I interacted with had amazing things to say about him — and when everyone who works with him speaks so highly of him, you know you’re in exceptional hands. His entire team is just as wonderful. Heather is attentive and truly listens, she makes you feel seen and cared for during every step of the process. Latasha is warm, communicative, and made everything feel smooth and personal. Everyone I spoke to in his office was friendly, professional, and compassionate. My results exceeded every expectation. Dr. Gabriel’s eye for detail and commitment to natural, beautiful outcomes truly set him apart. I look in the mirror now and feel like myself again and not just physically, but emotionally. This experience gave me back a confidence I didn’t even realize I’d lost. I am beyond grateful to have had Dr. Gabriel as my surgeon. He is the real deal — compassionate, talented, and genuinely committed to his patients. If you’re considering plastic surgery of any kind, book a consult. The moment you meet him, you’ll understand why so many people trust him.

Excellent skill & customer service - beautiful new boobies!

Dr. Gabriel did an amazing job repairing my previous botched breast surgery (from a different doctor).Upon waking I felt better than waking from any other surgery. He and his staff are always the kindest and professional people to work with is a bonus to my beautiful new boobies.

Life changing - there are no other words to describe his work

Doctor Gabriel is an artist and a magician. There really are no other words to describe his work. I walked into his office with quite the malformation on my buttocks. A benign tumor had taken over much of the tissue and the skin around it was very unhealthy. This issue started years ago and got worse over time, as it worsened, so did my confidence and comfort in my own skin. Doctor Gabriel took one look at it and said “I can fix this”, and he did. I am just a couple weeks post op but I’m already so much happier in my own skin! I will absolutely return to this clinic for further surgeries and I highly recommend you give them a call if you’re considering any work.

Tummy Tuck

Dr. Gabriel and team have treated me with so much dignity, respect, and compassion.

Dr. Gabriel and team are true rock stars. I am in process with them for multiple skin removal surgeries after massive weight loss. I just had my first this week; tummy tuck, breast lift & augmentation. I am so excited because I can see that my results will be incredible when I am all healed up! Not only that, but Dr. Gabriel and team have treated me with so much dignity, respect, and compassion. I have dealt with a lot of shame and humiliation in my life after gaining and losing so much weight. Dr. Gabriel and team have always made me feel important and never ashamed for my life journey. What a great group! I feel like I struck gold by finding them here in the local area. I trust them wholeheartedly and I'm grateful to the entire team!!

Tummy Tuck

Abdominoplasty with lipo of flanks 7 weeks ago - tears of happiness!

I had an abdominoplasty with Lipo of the flanks by Dr Gabriel 7 weeks ago. This was my second surgery with him. I return to him because I knew I was in great hands. He truly is an amazing surgeon and person. The results I’m seeing are absolutely perfect, literally tears of happiness over my results. One major tip- Listen to him and do your lymphatic massages and physical therapy. It will make all the difference.

Perfect Cleavage, Beautiful Tummy plus BBL

I went to Dr. Gabriel in Vancouver, WA for my new breasts. He did my tummy tuck, breast augmentation and brazilian butt lift all in one surgery! I went to 4 other surgeon consultations and ONLY Dr. Gabriel said he would be able to perform all 3 procedures at once. He is known as THE boob doctor to go to in our area (Portland/ Vancouver metro area) and I'm so glad I went with him. He said he would put the implants over the muscle because I am a crossfitter and was concerned about flex distortion. Let me tell you they turned out perfect and natural looking with perfect cleavage. My waist and mid drift turned out so beautiful with the abdominoplasty and liposuction, and my butt turned out beautifully lifted and round. He used the fat from my tummy tuck lip to lift my butt so there were no butt implants or silicone used in the BBL. And I was so happy not to have to do it in 2 or 3 separate surgeries! The recovery was brutal for the first few days but in my opinion 100% worth it!! Thank you Dr Gabriel for giving me the beautiful and sexy body I always wanted!! Updated on 18 Apr 2023: After pics

Tummy Tuck

sward77

So impressed with the lack of bruising and ease of healing

Dr. Gabriel and his team are the best of the best! My surgery (tummy tuck, BBL, breast lift) was four years in the making. I know a dozen people who went to him personally as well as several others who went to different doctors. The results Dr. Gabriel achieves are far superior! Not only that, but the care, the way we're treated as patients, and the constantly available support are just incomparable! My surgery went wonderfully (still healing), and I'm so impressed with the lack of bruising and ease of healing. He and his team truly have this work down pat and know how to help patients achieve the ultimate success! I will recommend him always!!
