Let's bust these plastic surgery recovery myths and unveil the truth behind the bandages πŸ˜‰

πŸ’š While rest should be your priority the first few days after surgery, it's important to keep your body moving for the rest of the recovery period with gentle movements, like walking, to speed up the process and reduce pain.

πŸ’š The final results of your plastic surgery procedure can take up to one year to be fully visible. Be patient and trust the process!

πŸ’š Your plastic surgeon and their medical staff will be readily available during your recovery to answer any questions and monitor your healing.

Cancer Survivor Month is an annual event that is very close to my heart. I am forever in awe of those who fought cancer and emerged as winners.

At Hess Plastic Surgery, we are proud to support survivors who have undergone a mastectomy, offering them breast reconstruction procedures. These procedures can restore the natural appearance of a patient's breasts and help them regain their confidence!

Generally, there are 3️⃣main breast reconstruction options:

πŸ’› Breast implant, where a saline or silicone implant is used to mold a new breast shape.

πŸ’› Tissue flap, where your own skin, fat, and muscle are used to reconstruct the breast through techniques such as the latissimus dorsi or TRAM flap procedure.

πŸ’› A combination of breast implant and tissue flap.

A surgical term a day keeps the doubts away πŸ‘¨β€βš•οΈπŸ“š

A TRAM (Transverse Re**us Abdominis Myocutaneous) Flap is a great reconstructive option that can help restore not only the physical appearance, but also the confidence and well-being of many patients after a mastectomy.

πŸ’š Lips
πŸ’š Cheeks
πŸ’š Forehead lines, marionette lines, and nasolabial folds
πŸ’š Chin or nose, to reshape.

Results like these make our πŸ’š stop 🀩

This lovely patient received a tummy tuck and liposuction of the abdomen and flanks to reach her body goals.

More specifically, I used a Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) technique, which uses an oscillating cannula to reduce fat quickly and with less trauma than other liposuction options.
