Great big thank you to Duke Health Lake Norman for providing us with three RNFA Nurse first assistants for our surgeries today. The most I’ve had in the last 31 years of operating at this hospital. This allowed us to work simultaneously within four separate Surgical fields on the same patient for depithelialization, resections, flap elevation and layered wound closures. Reducing the Anesthesia time from seven hours to 4 1/2. ⁠
Christie, Lizzie and Emma, three of the best RNFAs I’ve worked with in my career, helped us meticulously close 240 cm of skin incisions (96 inches) for this bilateral brachioplasty and extended inverted T mastopexy with lateral chest flap rotation for autologous augmentation. ⁠
To top it all off, Tonya, who has decades of experience in Reconstructive surgery, was circulating for this case!⁠
⁠
That’s a whole lot of talent in one room!⁠
⁠
We are fortunate to have Duke University provide such amazing healthcare in our community.

Breast Cancer is the second most common cancer in women and was diagnosed in 231,840 patients in 2015 in the United States. Even more now.⁠
⁠
It is treated either with breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy and radiation) or mastectomy (removal of the entire breast gland with various degrees of skin, ar**la, and ni**le preservation, usually without radiation). If mastectomy is the chosen treatment option, reconstruction of the breast is often desirable and is an integral part of the breast cancer treatment plan.⁠

How do I know whether or not a tummy tuck is right for me? ⬇️⁠
⁠
During your initial consultation with us, we will determine the extent of skin laxity, excess fat, and loose abdominal wall that is present. If the skin is tight and the bulge is primarily the result of localized fat that is diet-resistant and in a normal-weight individual, then liposuction alone may be sufficient to correct the problem. If there is only mild skin and abdominal wall laxity in the lower portion of the abdomen, then a “mini- Abdominoplasty” may be helpful. This procedure tightens only the skin and muscle that is below the navel, through a conservative incision above the p***s. More commonly, the abdominal looseness is diffuse, and the standard tummy-tuck is required.⁠

Our Story

At Riou Plastic Surgery Center we are dedicated to providing the utmost care and professionalism to every patient. Jean-Pierre Riou, MD, is Board Certified in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Trained at the prestigious Yale University School of Medicine, he scored in the top 1% in the Nation on the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Dr. Riou is the only plastic surgeon in the Carolinas specializing exclusively in breast surgery for over 25 years.

Dr. Riou has performed over 8500 implant surgeries (7,284 for cosmetic augmentation, 1,347 for breast cancer) including Mentor, Allergan, saline and form stable gel (“gummy bear”) implants. He believes passionately that plastic surgery should be an adjunct to healthy living not a substitute. Patients who elect for aesthetic surgery can have extraordinary improvements in their self-image, but a tummy tuck or liposuction should not be done instead of diet and exercise in overweight patients and breast lifts or reductions should not be done on active smokers.

This philosophy has been extremely valuable in the overall results and our patient satisfaction which keeps complications to a minimum and leads to longer lasting improvements. Their patients don’t just look better but they feel better!

Their shared medical staff have been with them for years and are a true “work family”, they provide a friendly and supportive environment that can only be found in small independent private practices.
