Tummy Tuck Bonus: Fat Grafting
June 11th, 2015
Fat Grafting has been called a dream come true. Who hasn’t heard someone say they wish that they could suck fat from one area and reposition it someplace else. A tummy tuck or abdominoplasty surgery routinely includes liposuction of excess fat in the abdomen. A new technique allows plastic surgeons to gently remove this fat and prepare it to be injected in other areas. Lipo fat grafting is an effective technique to enhance breast shape/size or to use as a natural filler for lip wrinkles and natural facial rejuvenation, replacing the use of artificial dermal fillers in anti-aging injections. Other common areas for carefully harvesting excess fat during liposuction or liposculpture are the thighs, flanks and hips. This procedure is one of the most exciting cosmetic surgery developments that I’ve seen during my more than 30 years in practice.

Facelift Diary: Coming Soon
March 23rd, 2015
I was pressed into service this weekend to help Lindsay install her editing software onto her new computer. After months of attempting to move it from one computer to another, we needed to do an entire reinstall. As you can see from the photo, she’s back in business and working on her personal story of documenting her facelift recovery in a video diary. As a filmmaker and editor of our blog, she felt that it would be helpful to anyone contemplating having facial rejuvenation surgery. I heard her laughing just before taking this photo, so I’m guessing she’s getting a kick out of herself listening to the audio. We did get quite a few laughs during the process of the filming. No telling when it will be done, but we will post it here first!
