Just finished a very interesting case. Patient had an upper Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) about 5 years ago by another Plastic Surgeon.

If you’re not in the entertainment biz…the word hiatus probably doesn’t have the same meaning.

I have said, many […]

Breast Augmentation in Celebrities has been in the news lately.

Breasts are making a huge comeback…no pun intended. We […]
I saw a tummy tuck, for a psot-op visit and started to remove some of the stitches. The stitches around the belly button are removed about 9-10 days after the surgery.

This is a further update on my post a couple of days ago regarding counterfiet Botox and other Plastic & Cosmetic Materials like Restylane.

Young women have the power to attract attention from men and other women. The more attractive the young woman, the more attention she receives.

March 7, 2006: I saw the lady that had the Tummy Tuck yesterday…see that post…for her first post-op visit.

Am I the only one that wonders what happened to all the plastic surgery makeover shows? They seem to have fallen off the planet despite very favorable ratings?

Now that I wrote a bit about the Oscars and the Celebs…..it’s time for me to go earn my keep. I’m off to the OR to do a Tummy Tuck for a lovely woman who hates the excess skin on her abdomen. After several kids, the abdominal muscles are loose (no amount of sit ups will […]
Well the Oscars were full of glitz and glitter as the modern day royalty ( our celebrities ) strutted their stuff down the red carpet. I, for one, still noticed some beauties that seem to have missed the news that the severely skinny, “I only eat lettuce for meals” look is unattractive. I thought that […]
