I just turned 36 and hit my 4 year anniversary of my Gastric bypass surgery, I've had two kids and lost and kept off 100 lbs

I've been in remission from type 2 diabetes and am finally having my dreams come true after going through so many hardships and toxic relationships my entire life. I'm so proud to be able to be an example to my two young teen daughters on how far you can come if you don't give up and learn self-love and respect. I'm so blessed and so grateful these days. Can't wait for this amazing...

Stomach Be Gone Journey!! - Columbus, OH

Hey ladies! I'm 36 married with 3 children. Now is the perfect time because my boys are in their late teens and. I decided to make the changes to my body that I've always wanted. I decided to post a review because after 6 months of searching I was unable to find any reviews on BBL in Ohio! I had my surgery done by Dr. Centeno at Columbus Institute of plastic surgery. He was very approachable,...

Fountain of Youth from The Columbus Institute of Plastic Surgery. Columbus, OH

I had my son at a younger age, which made me uncomfortable about my body due to all the stretch marks. As I continued to get older, the stretch marks never faded and I felt like a kangaroo with a pouch. I also started to notice that my breast were not a perky. This all caused me to lose my confidence and made me depressed. I had went and gotten two consultations prior for breast implants. But...

Do your research! Think about what things are important to you in a surgeon

Columbus institute of Plastic surgery Review. I’m going to present the facts of my experience accurately as possible so you can make your own choice. When I first called to make my appointment it was 2 weeks out. I called a few days later and got a sooner appointment. Only when they changed my appointment they didn’t tell me they switched me from the east location to the west location. So...

Doing something for myself - Columbus, OH

I am 26 years old, 5'5", about 155 lbs and I'm tentatively getting 650cc. After having 2 kids and losing some weight the girls are just not what they used to be. My breasts have always been a little "top heavy", (they never really rounded out) and my left is bigger than the right. I've always been self conscious about them so why not get them fixed. Had my consultation today for the bigger...

Q: 32AA. 5ft 5in 120lbs. Want 400cc implants but PS is trying to talk me down. Want a second opinion. (photos)
Answered by Dr. ShahDecember 27, 2017

A: My recommendation is that the 400cc will fit fine and look great.  Many plastic surgeons worry that going "too big" will increase your chances for rippling and sag quicker. I don't agree.  We just don't have enough information about it to know for sure.  That's why I think the most important part is getting the look you want!  I have many, many patients with implants much larger than 400cc and have no sag or ripplings after years!

Find the right surgeon that understands what you want!

Q: Non-surgical Nose Job Procedures to Reduce Nose Size?
Answered by Dr. ShahMay 3, 2016

A: Unfortunately, there is no way to make the nose smaller non-surgically.

I would suggest talking with a plastic surgeon about any fears you may have about surgery for the nose.  In general it is very safe, very successful, and the recovery is not bad at all.

Q: Tip Rhinoplasty: What Is It?
Answered by Dr. ShahMay 3, 2016

A: Tip rhinoplasty is when you only work on the lower part of the nose (the part that is wider then the middle of your nose).  Sometimes, that is the only part that people are unhappy with.  They may want a better shaped tip narrower tip, cute little narrow tip, etc

To do that, it usually means making a tiny incision and improving the shape of your nose.

Good luck!!

Q: How much sooner will a wound heal with a wound vac instead of the wet to dry? (Photo)
Answered by Dr. ShahMay 3, 2016

A: In general, a wound of the size you are showing will take about 6 - 8 weeks to heal with a Wound VAC.  It would take about 10 - 12 weeks with W - Dry dressing. 

Also, increasing protein intake, a balanced and high caloric intake,and no infection will speed things up considerably.

Q: Is it safe to use epidural during tummy tuck, lipo, and BBL?
Answered by Dr. ShahMay 3, 2016

A: Yes, epidural anesthesia can be very safe.  As always, make sure you are with an experienced provider.  Also keep in mind, that with any procedure, no matter how safe, there is always the small risk of complications.
