This transformation had a very clear goal: improve her abdomen and create a more visible waistline.

She had previously undergone liposuction, but still struggled with loose skin and abdominal laxity over the years. To address this, we performed an extended abdominoplasty with 360° liposuction. The procedure removed excess skin, repaired the abdominal wall, and sculpted the flanks and waist circumferentially to restore contour and proportion.

We’re so happy for her and the confidence she’s gained in her results 🤍
If you’re unsure what procedure is right for your goals, a consultation allows us to evaluate your anatomy and build a plan tailored specifically to you.

This patient came to us concerned about abdominal laxity and excess tissue through the abdomen and flanks that had been difficult to improve despite her efforts. Her goals were to feel more comfortable in her body and achieve a smoother, more balanced contour.

An extended abdominoplasty with liposuction to the posterolateral flanks was thoughtfully performed to address these concerns, refine the midsection, and restore proportion in a natural, tailored way. Every step was planned around her anatomy, priorities, and long-term comfort.

Behind every surgery is a story, a decision, and a level of trust that we never take lightly. Choosing to move forward with a procedure is personal, it’s often something patients think about for months or even years before stepping into the operating room.

Inside the OR, every movement is intentional. Every detail is considered. Every step is done with care, precision, and respect for the person who placed their confidence in our hands.

This isn’t just surgery. It’s a journey and we’re honored to be part of it.

With social media making breast implant journeys more transparent than ever, it’s easy to start thinking you’ve found the perfect size before even stepping into a consultation. But choosing implants isn’t as simple as a number. Implant volume is only one piece of the puzzle — your natural breast tissue, chest width, skin elasticity, and implant profile/projection all play a major role in the final result.

During your consultation, precise measurements and a thoughtful evaluation help us narrow down a range of implant sizes that align with your goals and anatomy. From there, the real magic happens in the operating room, where we can physically try on those size ranges to create the most balanced, natural-looking outcome for your body.

Thinking about breast augmentation? Your journey starts with a personalized consultation. Book yours today.

Before & afters like this remind us why we do what we do. 🤩

For this version of a Mommy Makeover, we created her plan around one goal: helping her feel confident in her body again. With an extended tummy tuck + liposuction, we refined her waistline and tightened the abdomen, then completed her transformation with a breast lift to restore a more youthful, natural shape.

Before any cosmetic surgery or procedure, full transparency is everything. Your surgeon can only plan the safest and most effective treatment when they know your full medical and lifestyle picture.

Medications, supplements, ni****ne use, past procedures - even things that seem “small” - can impact anesthesia, healing, and results.

Save this for your consultation, and share with anyone considering surgery.

Let’s Talk About BMI & Surgery Candidacy ✨

A higher BMI doesn’t automatically rule you out for surgery and it’s important for patients to hear that. What truly matters is the full picture of your health.

BMI is just one factor we consider. What can make surgery unsafe is a combination of a high BMI and poor overall health, such as uncontrolled medical conditions, smoking, or limited mobility. When those risks are present together, surgery may not be recommended.

But when your general health is stable and all other safety boxes are checked, many patients with higher BMIs are candidates for life-changing procedures. Your consultation is the beginning of understanding what is safe, realistic, and aligned with your goals.

We’ll also thoroughly discuss expectations from possible outcomes to healing timelines, so you feel informed, confident, and empowered every step of the way.

Your journey is unique, and we’re here to guide you safely toward the transformation you’ve been dreaming of

This sweet patient is barely 24 hours post-op and still wanted to share her experience and we couldn’t be more grateful. 🤍

She first came to us a year and a half ago for an extended tummy tuck, and since then, her transformation journey has continued with a brachioplasty and breast reduction. Watching her confidence grow with each step has been nothing short of inspiring.

Even after just having surgery, she’s feeling incredible and her positivity is truly contagious. ✨

To this amazing patient: thank you for trusting us, for choosing us again, and for sharing your story with others. Your confidence, courage, and kindness mean the world to our entire team.

Waistline Redefined. 💫

This patient’s transformation is the result of an extended tummy tuck with liposuction. By removing excess skin, tightening the abdominal muscles, and contouring the waist with liposuction, we created:
✅ A smoother, firmer abdominal profile
✅ A refined waistline and silhouette
✅ More comfort in clothing & daily movement

If you’ve experienced changes from weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or simply time, and you’re curious what options may fit your goals, we’d love to guide you.

This patient came to us wanting to enhance her breast volume for a  proportionate, and fuller silhouette. 🍒✨

After a detailed consultation and careful assessment of her anatomy, we selected 350cc high-profile silicone gel implants to achieve her desired shape and projection.

The result is a soft, natural-looking enhancement that complements her frame beautifully, providing symmetry, confidence, and balance.

FAQ: Can a Breast Augmentation Fix Sagging? 🤔

This is one of the most common questions we receive and the short answer is not necessarily. If you have a higher grade of breast ptosis (sagging), simply adding an implant won’t correct the excess skin, it will still hang off the implant. In these cases, we often recommend a breast lift (mastopexy) either with or without an augmentation to restore a more youthful, lifted shape.

However, some patients are in that borderline category, meaning there’s only slight sagging with very minimal excess skin. In these cases, a carefully chosen implant can sometimes create the illusion of a subtle lift by adding volume and support.

Every body and every breast is unique, that’s why a personalized consultation is key to determining which approach will achieve your goals and natural proportions best.
