WHAT ARE 7 COMMON BENEFITS OF L***A SURGERY?

Labiaplasty is a low-risk cosmetic surgery that addresses enlarged l***a minora, which can cause physical and emotional discomfort. This issue may be hereditary, develop after childbirth, or occur due to aging. The procedure involves trimming the l***al tissue, reshaping the vaginal tissue, and addressing the inner l***a. Labiaplasty can reduce physical discomfort, improve sexual pleasure, enhance comfort during exercise, provide better clothing fit, improve hygiene, create a more youthful appearance, and boost self-confidence. The surgery is typically performed under local or general anesthesia and involves minimal pain or discomfort. Most patients can return to their regular activities within 1-2 weeks.

My approach to plastic surgery is simple: Focus on the patient! Their wants and needs are the priority, and listening to them plays a huge role creating the most beautiful surgical outcome.

WILL YOU NEED A BREAST LIFT OR AUGMENTATION?

After pregnancy and breastfeeding, many women experience breast volume loss and drooping, which can result in undesired changes in breast appearance. Breast lift surgery is designed to remove excess skin and reshape breast tissue, while breast augmentation restores lost volume.

The ni**le position is an important factor in determining if a breast lift is recommended. If the ni**le is positioned above the breast fold, a lift is less likely to be necessary. However, if the ni**le is below the breast fold, a lift is more likely to improve the appearance of the breasts. Breast augmentation alone may slightly raise the ni**le position, but a lift may be necessary to significantly improve the appearance of the breasts.

A combined breast lift and augmentation surgery can be performed in a single-stage or two-stage approach, depending on patient goals and surgeon preference.

VASER LIPOSUCTION VS. SMARTLIPO: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

Traditional liposuction involves manually scraping away fat cells, which can cause trauma during the procedure. Newer techniques like Vaser Liposuction and SmartLipo utilize ultrasound and laser energy to make fat removal less traumatic. Vaser Liposuction uses ultrasound to loosen fat cells, allowing for precise sculpting and faster recovery.

SmartLipo uses laser energy to liquefy fat cells, reducing bleeding, providing skin tightening benefits, and potentially improving recovery. The choice between the two techniques depends on individual factors, and in some cases, a combination of both may be used.

Ultimately, the skill of the surgeon plays a significant role in achieving the desired results. Consultation with a board-certified cosmetic surgeon is advised to determine the best liposuction method for each patient.

Based on over a thousand breast implant surgeries performed, breast implants matter because they provide STRUCTURE.
This is how I am able to create breasts that fit your goals. Sometimes that structure is lost after pregnancy and breastfeeding; sometimes it’s naturally not there.

Implants are crucial because they allow me to part a new shape that is otherwise not possible.

Not just any implant will do. Implant selection is the process by which we determine together which implant profile, gel characteristic, volume, and make will deliver the best results.
