What do you like best about being a plastic surgeon? I enjoy establishing relationships with patients and helping them achieve their goals. It is also rewarding to know I am making a difference in my patient’s breast cancer management through reconstruction. Making a positive impact in my patient’s lives is very gratifying. I especially like that I can do all of this while blending art, science, and technical skills.
What are the most asked about and performed procedures in your office? The most asked about procedures include: Mommy Makeover, Facial Rejuvenation, Eyelid, and Facelift; Revision Breast Surgery from Previous Mastectomy Reconstruction or Previous Cosmetic Breast Surgery; Breast Augmentation; Liposuction; and Rhinoplasty.
What does a “Mommy Makeover” comprise and what is the reason women want this procedure?

When doing a Mommy Makeover, I look to restore a woman’s body after child bearing. The goal is to reverse the atrophy and/or sag of breasts, and weakening of the abdominal wall with skin excess or laxity. The combination asked for most often is abdominoplasty and repair of abdominal wall (diastasis/hernias) combined with breast augmentation, lift, reduction and sometimes liposuction and even buttock fat grafting.
