Beauty By Buford

It has been four months since my procedure and I couldn't be happier. I had excess skin at my abdomen area as a result of losing over 70 pounds of weight and scar tissue build up from insulin injections for over 30 years. I am 66 years old and was reluctant to have this surgery. My wife and I have been friends with Dr. Buford for many years and felt comfortable with his experience and knowledge. Many of our friends have been patients of Dr. Buford with great success. Dr. Buford and his staff were supportive and comprehensive in their care and always available for my questions and concerns. This procedure was minimal and life changing.

I always had a thin build and flat stomach, but thins changed when I went through menopause around 5 years ago. I had tried Cool-sculpting years ago, but it was a waste of money.

I really only considered two Drs, and had a phone chat with one, then a consultation with the second. I had know Dr Buford for about 6 years, because he use to do my Botox and filler, and I've still been going to hi office since, but getting treatment from a nurse.

I knew he was the one immediately and booked my surgery that day!! I put down 20% on a no interest credit card, and I'm using Patientfi to pay the balance with no interest. My surgery was. a drainless tummy tuck, muscle repair, 360 Lipo, and Renuvion wherever Lipo was done!

I am 13 DPO today and could not be more THRILLED!! Dr Buford gave me pics from the OR, and I knew I was going to love my result!

I’m just over 7wpo and I’m feeling fabulous! Everyday things get better, so I’m excited to see where I end up!!
Definitely worth every penny!!

Dr.Buford is an excellent surgeon. He has great bed side manner, is an expert in his field, and I had outstanding results with the surgery I had. The surgery I had was an implant removal and other surgeons previously said it would be impossible to remove them without a lollipop incision. When I met with Dr. Buford later he stated I could do a fat transfer and then not need a life with the state my breasts would be at. He was right! I look like my old self. Possibly better if I say so myself. He thinks outside the box to make his patients as happy as possible! His team is nice and caring. If you want a surgeon you’re comfortable with and can trust choose Dr.Buford!

Words can’t express how truly amazing Dr Buford is. I have been going to him for years to get Botox and filler. Anyssa also does my micro needling with PRP and is the best! I recently decided to have a breast augmentation and couldn’t be happier with my results. The entire experience from the consultation to the procedure was exceptional. Jennifer and Shanda are so welcoming and are great to work with. Thank you to Dr Buford and staff!

I got my implants removed because my body was rejecting them (had inflammation issues) and I wanted to be my authentic, natural self again. Dr. Buford was professional, reassuring and down to earth. I felt very comfortable with him. He used my previous incisions and did an amazing job with the whole procedure. Jen was wonderful and explained everything very thoroughly. Shanda was always nice, friendly and a pleasure to talk to. I am 7 weeks post op and I am very happy with my results. If I had to do it all over again, I would still choose Dr. Buford.

Dr Buford has impeccable bedside manner. He spends ample time in every pre-surgery and post-surgery appointment to listen to you without making you feel rushed. I visited several surgeons in the area and once I met Dr Buford I knew he was the right doctor for my procedure. His staff is also excellent. As for the procedure itself, Dr Buford performed a bilateral breast implant removal of 8 year old saline submuscular implants. The incision was smaller than I expected and healed very nicely. I had minimal discomfort after the procedure despite needing drains (to be expected).

I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Buford on 9-3-20 and can say with full confidence that I had a 5 star experience from start to finish! I considered a few other doctors in the area as well as across the country. Dr. Buford stood out due to his attentiveness to my needs, technique and knowledge.

During my in-person consult, we discussed my goals, viewed my "wish pics", reviewed my lifestyle and took some measurements. Based on those things, Dr. Buford and I were able to decide on a size range to be able to accomplish my desired look. In the OR, Dr. Buford made the final decision on the size that would look best according to what we discussed. I am nearly 14 weeks post op (feeling amazing BTW) and can say that Dr. Buford chose the perfect size for me. My recovery was fairly easy; I have never had a major surgery before and any time I had a question or concern, Dr. Buford and Jen were there for me. 

I feel like these are the breasts I was MEANT to have from the beginning. I have been recommending Dr. Buford and his services to anyone that I can as I know they will have an enjoyable experience with a trustworthy and skilled provider.

I am so happy with my results! My breast turned out the exact way I wanted them! Dr. Bufford is fantastic. I like that he brings multiple sizes and fits them to your body. I wold highly recommend him.

I I had my Botox and filler appointment on Wednesday May 6! I was happy to be able to go since we've quarantined! I usually get 2 full syringes of Vobella paced about about a month apart but not this time. I told him I wanted both then so he put one in the top and the other in the bottom. Then he put, I think, just 4 units of Botox above my lip to give me the flip!!! I'm excited to see what it does but figure I'll see it between 1 and 2 weeks! It is supposed to keep your muscles from turning your lip under thus giving you a little lift.
I'll include a before from before I ever got lip filler (tiny deflated lips) and from right before his in which was about 9 months after the last. Too long though because they practically disappeared. I'm going to space them out going forward to get like 1 syringe every 4 or 5 months to help maintain them! No to mention getting more Botox to keep my lip flip!!
Dr Buford is AWESOME!!! He is a super down to earth guy as well as an artist!! I love getting my Botox (for face as well as lip flip) and filler from him since I totally trust him!! Plus he gives me a Cupid's bow on my lips which I don't have naturally!!! He rocks!!!!

When I first did this I didn’t add pictures! Oops! I will put what day they are under them. I must say though I’m on day 3 and I really do think I’m starting to see the flip try!! Can’t wait to see them as I get loser to 2 weeks or even 1 week! I added some pink gloss today but I’ve just been using Vaseline.

Wanted to post this comparison, so far, of smiling. Even with filler my lips would disappear when I smiled!

Updated on 10 May 2020:
I have some bruising still but I’m so happy!! Don’t mind the remnants of hard to remove lipgloss! I have Vaseline on top of it too.

I included a picture of my lips before I ever had lip injections too. Small lips plus being older made hm deflated too! Ugh

Jut want to add as many updates as possible to track what changes. Hoping I do see the lip flip hour I know it’s only a small change usually. Anything would help!

Updated on 11 May 2020:
Here’s today’s picture! They are still bruised for sure and swollen mostly around the border I’m thinking.

Just wanted to add another!

Updated on 11 May 2020:
Ok, one more! Here is me smiling! Still have lips!!! When I usually smile, even with filler, the right idea of my lip disappears! Hoping for more improvement but this is good!!

Updated on 12 May 2020:
Lips feel a bit lumpy but not too different. I’m hoping the Botox is at least showing when I smile. I’m still hoping it makes my lip turn up some more.

Jut wanted to give another update. Seems like most of the swelling is gone and I notice that I still have lips when I smile which I assume is the lip flip!

I’m very pleased with my results!! I do believe the lip flip helped!! Now to figure when I need to get it again!

Updated on 23 May 2020:
I’m really loving the lip flip! I wonder when I should get it again. I don’t want it to go away!

No gloss or anything.

Don’t mind my guard on my bottom teeth and the scabs on my lip! Ugh, I pulled a dry piece of skin off my lip and ripped a hole in my lip. Then as if that wasn’t bad enough I got a cold sore right above it. Thankfully I felt it coming so I put ice on it then started taking Valtrex and putting Abreva on it nonstop pot didn’t get big. I haven’t had a cold sore in years an always take Valtrex (the generic actually) before and after lip injections. I had stopped taking it then got one.

No gloss just a little Vaseline Cocoa Butter Lip Therapy on. Really loving my lip flip!!

Finally almost scab free and I’m really loving my lips! The lip flip really gives me just a bit more pout and I LOVE it!! And you’ve lips without liner and lipstick is awesome too!!

Updated on 31 May 2020:
Just another couple pictures! I’m very pleased an kept updating even though I realize no one really looks at my reviews.

I made an appointment that is 2 months from my filler and lip flip appointment to get another lip flip. It’s just 4 units of Botox and my dr said to get it every 2 months. He said you don’t want to get too much or your lips get floppy!

Don’t mind the fact that my gloss is mostly gone and I just have lip liner on!

Just a photo of my lips wig my favorite gloss!

Went in 2 days ago to get another lip lip. Just 4 units! Small price to pay for what it offers! Here is a picture from yesterday so 1 day after.

I absolutely love my Botox, lip and cheek fillers that I had performed for my birthday this year. Dr. Buford is a master of his craft and it definitely shows! He did just the right amount of filler. I wanted a little more fullness but to not look like a duck and he nailed it. I have added a photo collage of my lips from day today for a week. It can take up to a couple of weeks for the swelling to completely go down but as of now I am completely happy with my lips the way they are. We did Botox in my forehead, Voluma and my cheeks and Volbella in my lips.

I have also had my breast augmentation performed by Dr. Buford. He is the best in my opinion in Denver at breast augmentation. I refer all of my friends and clients to him. That speaks volumes in and of itself. Each time I see Dr. Buford and his staff, they are extremely professional and always ensure that I am as comfortable as I can be during any procedure. His bedside manner is incredible and he is extremely educated in all of the services that I have received from him and that he performs. If you're looking for any cosmetic services/injections, Dr. Buford is the best in Denver!
