Lower Body Lift (Tummy tuck & gluteal auto augmentation) This patient, in her 50s, lost an incredible 160 pounds through a gastric sleeve procedure followed by dedicated diet and daily exercise.

With that level of weight loss often comes significant excess skin—something that can’t be corrected with continued weight loss alone. She was particularly bothered by laxity through the abdomen, lateral thighs, and lower back.

To address this, I performed a lower body lift with gluteal auto-augmentation, reshaping the entire lower torso while using her own tissue to naturally enhance the buttocks—improving both contour and proportion without implants.

These photos are just 6 weeks after surgery, already revealing a smoother, more lifted silhouette.

This is about more than weight loss—it’s about restoring form, function, and confidence after a major transformation.

A circumar**lar mastopexy, also known as the Benelli method, is a breast lift technique designed for patients with mild to moderate sagging who want a subtle, natural elevation.

This approach uses a single incision placed around the ar**la, allowing me to remove excess skin and gently lift the breast while keeping scarring limited to the pigment border—where it tends to heal very discreetly.

It’s a great option for patients who don’t require a more extensive lift but still want improved shape, better ni**le position, and a more youthful contour.

The key is proper patient selection—when used in the right candidate, this technique can deliver a refined result with minimal visible scarring.

6 months post-op and she couldn’t be happier. Breast reduction isn’t just about size—it’s about comfort, balance, and confidence. plasticsurgeon

Abdominoplasty: This patient, a woman in her 40s, desired aesthetic correction of her abdomen after having 2 children via C-section utilizing a midline approach.  She requested improved abdominal contour as well as removal of her depressed lower abdominal scar.  She underwent full lipo abdominoplasty.  The postoperative photos were taken approximately 6 months after the procedure.

Using a Keller Funnel allows for a true no-touch technique during breast augmentation. Here you can see the implant loaded inside the funnel, sterile and ready for insertion into the breast pocket. Because the implant is delivered directly through the funnel, it avoids direct contact with the skin, helping maintain sterility and allowing for a smooth, controlled placement.

Refinement, balance, and a more youthful silhouette.
This patient in her 50s previously underwent breast augmentation elsewhere but felt her breasts were larger than she desired and lacked the lift and symmetry she wanted. She also had noticeable asymmetry between the breasts.

Her procedure included removal of her 375cc implants, placement of smaller 325cc implants in the dual-plane position, and a breast lift to reshape and elevate the breast tissue while improving overall symmetry.

At six months post-op, her results reflect a more elegant proportion, improved balance, and a naturally lifted contour—demonstrating how thoughtful revision surgery can restore harmony while maintaining a soft, natural look.

I always enjoy hearing from my patients — especially when I get updates like this. These two close friends each chose to undergo a tummy tuck with me, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see them fully healed, confident, and enjoying the results together.

Seeing them looking happy, toned, and enjoying a beach vacation in their bikinis is exactly why I love what I do. Moments like this are a great reminder of how meaningful these transformations can be for my patients. ☀️

As a plastic surgeon, one of the most important pre-op conversations I have is about smoking.
Ni****ne restricts blood flow and oxygen to your tissues — which can mean poor healing, higher complication risk, and compromised results.
If you’re planning surgery, stopping smoking (including va**ng and ni****ne products) before and after your procedure isn’t optional — it’s essential for a safe recovery and the best possible outcome.
