You already saw her tummy tuck, so here’s her butt lift! These photos are just 3 weeks post op.

This patient really wanted a body lift, but did not like the idea of having a circumferential scar that extends above her buttocks. So, I put it underneath her buttock where there is already a natural crease. At her request I also used her own tissues to give her a bit more volume (auto augmentation).

This level of customization of the surgical plan is not so common, because the surgeon has to be quite comfortable and skilled at doing a lot of different types of procedures to offer it. However…it’s the standard of care in my practice!

This type of butt lift is rarely performed together with a tummy tuck (body positioning for healing the incisions ideally during recovery becomes difficult), but can be done in a very motivated and healthy patient.

Her transformation included the following procedures:
1) Tummy tuck (photos on this post)
2) Miami thong lift combined with an Infragluteal incision butt lift
3) Limited incision medial thigh lift
4) 270 degree liposuction (flanks, back, plus thighs)

All of these were done in one day, but I’m going to display her befores and afters as individual post so we can get into detail about each of them.

Note- given that she is just 3 weeks out I expect her symmetry, incisions, and contours to continue to improve as she heals, even out to a few months.

6 weeks out from her tummy tuck, this amazing patient is so happy with her new contours.

There are a few keys to getting tummy tuck (and other) scars to heal this well. The surgeon needs to use extremely gentle technique in the operating room, and also avoid over tightening the skin. The patient can help by optimizing their nutrition with a high protein diet, leafy green vegetables, and a multivitamin containing zinc and vitamin C. Pain control and activity restriction are important after surgery for a few weeks. This patient is enjoying the benefits of all the above!

Results do vary and care plans should be personalized. This patient gave permission for her photos to be shared with the tattoos.

This beautiful mom is just 3 weeks post op and already on her way to achieving the body image she’s wanted for years after pregnancy and then weight loss!

Her transformation included the following procedures:
1) Tummy tuck (photos on this post)
2) Miami thong lift combined with an Infragluteal incision butt lift
3) Limited incision medial thigh lift
4) 270 degree liposuction (flanks, back, plus thighs)

All of these were done in one day, but I’m going to display her befores and afters as individual post so we can get into detail about each of them.

My abdominoplasties prioritize a few factors- 1) extremely gentle tissue handling to promote your body’s natural ability to heal itself, specifically to optimize scar healing. 2) preserving your natural curves so you don’t end up with an “overdone” look (outline the curves from above her belly button down to the bikini line on oblique and side views). 3) avoiding both overtightening or undertightening the muscle and skin layers so recovery is tolerable while achieving a beautiful, lasting result.

A few notes- given that she is just 3 weeks out I expect her symmetry, incisions, and contours to continue to improve as she heals, even out to a few months. It is faint, but there is a small vertical incision at the midline just above her horizontal incision. This is where her belly button originally was. Since I am gentle on tissues and avoid over tightening them by tugging too hard on the skin inferiorly (which can cause wide scars and wound breakdown), she has this small vertical line that should heal quite well.

This lovely lady is now 3 months out from her surgery! She had a lot done, listed below. The combination of procedures I recommended allowed for correction of a ptotic (droopy) and poorly defined buttock after a 70 lb weight loss. Her feminine curves are also better suited to her frame!

The combo:
1) buttock lift (1150g excision)
2) SAFE liposuction of the lower back
3) SAFE liposuction of the trochanters/hips
4) SAFE liposuction of the flanks
Total lipoaspirate was 2.1 liters

This is what I mean when I talk about a customized surgical approach to each person’s personal needs and goals. This is as important in post weight loss body sculpting as it would be for a face lift.

A lot of dudes assume that plastic surgery is for the ladies. Not true! This extremely athletic patient had an area of pesky fat below his belly button no amount of exercise was improving. The SAFE lipo technique I use has got him some nice contours! He is just a month out in these photos so watch for more as time goes on so you can see just how effective the technique I use is.

Thank you to all of my amazing patients for choosing me to be your surgeon. Being your trusted source for all things aesthetic is an absolute honor. Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

During this time of year and I reflect on our lives. One of the highlights of this year was being chosen by Dr. Baxter to join his practice.

Our office manager, Pamela Hoge, is a veteran of the aesthetic industry with knowledge, experience, and (most importantly) an amazing sense of humor. She leads a team of all-stars, who have welcomed and supported me greatly over the past few months. Thank you do Dr. Baxter, Pamela, and all of the staff at .

📚 Do surgeons work with their friends?

💡 Innovating and improving surgical technique over time to get the best outcomes for my patients is absolutely central to my practice. This is especially important as technology rapidly advances in aesthetic medicine. Surgeons are very social, so one of the keys to advancing our field is to collaborate and share ideas.

🖌️ The very best days at work are when my colleagues and I get together for cases and learn from one another. By talking over differences in our techniques, everyone only has things to gain. This even applies when folks from different fields of training come together! For example, is an ENT facial plastic surgeon and dear friend; modifications to my rhinoplasty technique were made after seeing him do his work! Here at Dr. Baxter and I often reflect on our cases as well, and his thoughts on revision breast surgical techniques has fine tuned my perspective on some of these challenging cases.

✨ This spirit of collaboration starts early. My mentor from surgical training , great friend , and I did hundreds of cases together from the beginning of training until the end. While I miss them tremendously since we are all now in different areas of the country, we still chat about our work.

🌆 Being a part of this community of surgeons is a real honor, and my patients really benefit from a surgeon who is in touch with our rapidly evolving field of expertise!

🍁 “What will people think?” “Do I need this?” “Is this for someone like me?” “Should I really spend this money on myself?”

🍁 Our patients come from all walks of life. Some are from communities where plastic surgery is seen as taboo, or vanity. Some have dedicated so much of their lives to helping others that they have a hard time investing in themselves. And yet others wonder if they’d fit in and be comfortable at a plastic surgeon’s clinic. All of these feelings and questions are OK to have!

🍁 I personally understand where this is coming from given my own cultural heritage, as Indian communities tend to be more…demure. The truth is, plastic surgery can be for absolutely anyone who wants it. Whether you are after subtle, graceful aging or noticeable, dynamic results- we are here for you and can modify your treatment plan based on those goals.

🍁 My mission is to make plastic surgery approachable for anyone who is even curious about it. After seeing how a person’s self confidence can blossom after what we do, I’m inspired to show the world just how powerful this can be.

🍁 Let’s break down the stigma and barriers. It is your body and you should feel empowered to make your own choices about it. During your consultation, I always make it a point to understand your life and background, and tailor my recommendations to who you are as an individual.

🍑 Just 5 days post SAFE liposuction (2.2L) and buttock lift!

⏳ I am ecstatic with these results. However, I’m even more excited to see the how her curves and proportions get even better as her bruising and swelling improves! Her skin needs time to tighten and heal to her new shape. This usually takes a few weeks, but everyone’s body is different. I’m not even surprised to see continued improvements 6-12 months out!

🍑 We always hesitate to show surgical results too early, but the improvement here is so dramatic. After SAFE lipo, compression via the right garments to help the contours form is key.

🍁 This fall, treat yourself to high quality, customized treatment options for your face, body, or breast!

🍁 My patients are often asking me to help select “the best” treatment for their face, neck, eyelids, breasts, body, or anywhere else. While there are recommendations I can make based on what I see, it’s so important to consider another big thing: where are you in life? Whether your lifestyle allows you to have downtime for recovery, or if you’re a busy mom on the go, or if you are an active person who has to work out to feel like yourself- all of this is essential to know.

🍁 Every single treatment plan is custom tailored to you, and this includes accommodating your lifestyle as far as possible. Matching a patient to a procedure takes a lot of consideration, and is one of the most important parts of what I do. Come see how it works!
