✨ Natural Volume, Thoughtfully Redefined ✨

This patient wanted fuller breasts without implants. Using fat transfer, I sculpted her abdomen, flanks, and thighs with liposuction, then carefully purified and repurposed the fat by injecting it into her breasts.

The result: a subtle, natural augmentation that enhances her shape — while also contouring the donor areas.

A conservative approach that gives patients the best of both worlds: gentle volume + refined silhouette.

✨ Sculpting with Precision ✨

This patient wanted a slimmer, smoother waistline. The key to natural liposuction results isn’t just fat removal — it’s how the fat is removed.

For her transformation, I used:
🔹 VASER ultrasound to gently dissolve fat before removal
🔹 Micro-cannulas — the smallest instruments — for delicate, precise contouring
🔹 Three-vector technique to ensure smooth, even reduction and avoid irregularities

Her flanks were significantly reduced, giving her waist a refined contour and balanced silhouette. Subtle. Smooth. Seamless.

💡 What is an internal bra?

After massive weight loss from GLP-1 medications like Ozempic®, many women experience severe breast sagging and tissue weakness. To restore shape and prevent implants from “bottoming out,” surgeons can reinforce the breast with an internal bra mesh scaffold.

This absorbable mesh acts as hidden support, helping maintain long-term lift, projection, and youthful breast contours.

✨ Eyelid Rejuvenation (Blepharoplasty) ✨

Excess upper eyelid skin can hide the natural supratarsal crease, leaving the eyes looking heavy and aged. For this patient, I performed a precisely hidden incision within the crease, removing excess skin and fat through an elliptical excision.

The result: a restored eyelid crease, refreshed periocular area, and a brighter, more youthful expression.

Blepharoplasty is among the most common facial procedures — often the very first step patients take when addressing early signs of aging. It’s also frequently paired with a facelift, rhinoplasty, or fat transfer for comprehensive rejuvenation.

In the early 50s, many patients begin to notice the natural effects of gravitational aging in the face, neck, and eyelids. That’s when a carefully planned rejuvenation can restore balance and vitality — while keeping results subtle and refined.

For this 55-year-old patient, I performed:
🔹 SMAS stacking facelift — imbricating and sewing the deep plane SMAS layer to restore midface volume
🔹 Skin redraping under minimal tension for virtually imperceptible scars
🔹 Upper & lower eyelid rejuvenation to remove excess skin and fat for brighter, rested eyes
🔹 Neck lift with corset platysmaplasty & lateral window for a sculpted, elegant contour

The result: harmony of the face, neck, and eyes — refreshed, natural, and timeless.
