Doctor Notes
Implants were used on this extremely thin patient, with minimal breast tissue and a very narrow chest wall. She hoped to increase her size significantly, and requested a very narrow cleavage.
Doctor Notes
Corrected a slight preoperative asymmetry.
Doctor Notes
The folds beneath the breasts were lowered to allow the implants to be centered behind the nipples. Her shape and size is much improved, and the slight pigmentation of the scars will fade with additional time.
Doctor Notes
This patient presented with small, pointed breasts and a wide intermammary distance. After augmentation with implants, her size and shape are much improved, and the intermammary distance is very narrow, as she requested.
Doctor Notes
This 19 year old requested a modest size increase to provide an extremely natural, unoperated appearance.
Doctor Notes
Due to her narrow chest wall, high profile implants were selected, resulting in an
attractive and natural appearance.
Doctor Notes
This patient underwent emergency abdominal and thoracic surgery as an infant. This resulted in a deeply depressed scar adjacent to the left areola and nipple. She is extremely thin, with minimally developed and asymmetric breasts. She has very tight skin and soft tissues over the chest. The depressed left breast scar was released and elevated.
Doctor Notes
This young patient desired a conservative augmentation, to preserve a very natural appearance.
Doctor Notes
This patient complained of empty, drooping breasts after breastfeeding. A concentric mastopexy was performed in combination with breast augmentation. This type of mastopexy results in less scarring on the breast.
Doctor Notes
This mother complained of poor breast shape (constricted or
conical), inadequate size, and drooping, worse on the left. A concentric
mastopexy (breast lift) was performed in combination with breast
augmentation. The breast lift involves only a scar around the areola, with
no scars on the breasts themselves. The red color of the scars will fade
with time.
Her size and shape are dramatically improved, as is the drooping, with
minimal scarring.
Doctor Notes
A concentric mastopexy was performed in combination with breast augmentation. This type of mastopexy results in less scarring on the breast. The scar around the areola will continue to fade over time.
Doctor Notes
This female presented with severe ptosis (drooping) of the breasts after breastfeeding. The nipples are pointing almost straight down, and the patient has no breast fullness. She did not want to use breast implants. A traditional mastopexy (lift) was performed, restoring fullness and bringing the nipples to appropriate levels.
Doctor Notes
This patient wanted to improve her severe abdominal prominence and skin excess. After her surgery, her improvement was so dramatic that she was motivated to lose additional weight, which she could never do successfully before the surgery. The photos demonstrate the amazing transformation that is possible when a good tummy tuck and liposuction are combined with weight loss.
Doctor Notes
A tummy tuck smoothed and contoured this patient's abdomen, while eliminating most of her stretch marks. The umbilicus (belly button) scar will fade over time.
Doctor Notes
This mother underwent abdominoplasty combined with liposuction of the abdomen, back, hips, and thighs.
