When I ask my female patients who have children if they love being a mom, they always answer yes. But then if I ask them if they love what childbearing has done to their body, I get a different answer. No matter how much you adore your children, pregnancy and breastfeeding take a toll on your figure, often resulting in drooping and smaller-than-before breasts, stubborn fat deposits, a flabby and protruding stomach, loose skin, sagging buttocks and thigh saddlebags.

But there’s good news! A Mommy Makeover can help correct these problems. Whether you decide to have one body contouring procedure or a combination of them at the same time, a Mommy Makeover helps women of all ages and body types regain the body they had before children, and in many cases, get a better shape than they ever had.

Since its debut in 1996, the Brazilian butt lift (also called butt augmentation) is now one of the most-asked-for plastic surgery procedures that I perform in my practice. Part of the reason for the popularity of this procedure is that it does two things very well: enlarges and lifts a person’s butt and slims down areas where they have excess fat and want to look trimmer.

As well as the Brazilian butt lift, I also offer a wide range of other body sculpting procedures to help you achieve a more shapely body. To learn more, click here.

For many of my patients, breast implants successfully help them feel younger, sexier, more attractive...and more feminine. For others, breast implants correct breast misalignment, breasts that never developed, the loss of breasts after surgery, or a number of other issues. For all of them, however, breast augmentation can be a wonderful turning point in their lives, boosting their self-esteem and enabling them to have a positive body image, sometimes for the first time.         

If you want larger breasts, I recommend breast augmentation surgery with breast implants as a safe, long-term way to get the breast size you’ve always wanted.

Want a better, trimmer shape? If you’ve tried dieting and exercise but still have stubborn areas of fat that simply won’t go away, liposuction could be the answer you’ve been looking for. By permanently taking away excess fat deposits, it slims and reshapes specific areas of the body, and at the same time, improves your body contours and proportion for a more pleasing silhouette.

Since fat cells do not reproduce, once they are eliminated by liposuction, they will not be replaced. This may be why the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery rates liposuction as today’s most popular cosmetic procedure.

Have you been carrying around your saddle bags long enough? Ready to lose your double chin? Do you long for a trim, toned, sexy tummy? If the answer is yes to any or all of these, you're a great candidate for CoolSculpting, a non-invasive body sculpting procedure that dramatically reduces stubborn layers of fat by freezing and then eliminating them from your body for good—without needles, surgery, scarring or downtime.

Unlike ultrasound- and heat-based fat-reducing treatments which actually explode unwanted fat cells, CoolSculpting works by freezing them. This causes them to die and get flushed from the body as waste, leaving you more toned and sculpted. This procedure has fewer side effects than other methods (which can cause bruising and soreness) and delivers more effective results.

As they get older, many people’s “behinds” go through several not-very-welcome changes. Caused by pregnancy, weight gain, weight loss, prolonged sitting, genetics, or a combination of all of these, the butt easily droops, sags and becomes flabby.

A Brazilian butt lift (also called butt augmentation) can reverse these changes. It can also give you a firmer, larger, higher and more shapely butt than you had before. As well as the Brazilian butt lift, I also offer a wide range of other body sculpting procedures to help you achieve a more shapely body. To learn more, click here.

If you’re like a lot of us, over the holidays there was probably no shortage of yummy cookies and delicious desserts to indulge in as you celebrated with family and friends. Now that we’re into a brand new year, you might be noticing some extra fat rolls that weren’t there before.

Or, maybe you’re thinking about all the possibilities that a new year brings. This might be the perfect time, finally, to get the beautiful body you’ve always wanted.

Whatever your reason for wanting to get rid of excess fat and achieve a trimmer physique, liposuction could be the answer you’re looking for. It slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by taking away excess fat deposits and improving your body contours and proportion, giving you a toned, curvy shape you can feel good about. Since fat cells do not reproduce, once they are gone through liposuction, they’re gone for good.

For many of my patients, no matter how much they exercise or eat a healthy diet, they still are not able to get rid of stubborn fat. Frustrated, they often come to me asking if there’s anything I can do about their saddlebags, tummy rolls, back fat, inner thighs, outer thighs, arms or double chin…and they’d rather not have plastic surgery.

My answer? CoolSculpting, a non-invasive body sculpting procedure that reduces unwanted layers of fat by freezing them away, permanently. To learn more about CoolSculpting, watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.

A Brazilian butt lift (also referred to as fat grafting to the buttocks or butt augmentation) is a popular and highly effective way to achieve a fuller, firmer, more shapely derrière. It also can help patients attain a more pleasing balance between the shape, size and contour of their backside in proportion to the rest of their body. 

Recently, there have been some concerns regarding the safety of this procedure. When patients ask me if a Brazilian butt lift is safe, my answer is yes. As an experienced plastic surgeon who has performed hundreds of Brazilian butt lifts with very low complication rates, I believe this procedure is very safe. Major risks include 1) pulmonary or fat embolism—blood clot—for less than 1% of patients, and 2) anemia.

As I tell my patients, we’re really in a wonderful time in terms of body contouring. As well as plastic surgery, I can now offer many procedures that are non-surgical and have minimal downtime, if any, that provide excellent results.

Many ways to get a better, sexier shape

One example of a relatively new non-surgical, non-invasive body contouring treatment is CoolSculpting, in which the patient is wide awake and a machine is attached to the area of the body where he or she wants to get rid of unwanted fat. The machine freezes the fat and then over the next few months, slowly flushes these destroyed fat cells from the body.

EmSculpting is another non-surgical body contouring procedure that uses a machine, in this case to tighten a person’s abdominal and/or butt muscles and melt away some of the fat. This treatment is really for patients who are in good shape who are just looking for some extra definition of muscle. They’re trying to get that 6-pack but don’t have time to go to the gym all the time. They’re not looking for major body contouring changes but want, say, a buttock lift with some enhancement to their gluteus muscles.

In addition, I offer fat-removing, body shaping procedures like liposuction which is surgical but can now be performed by using tiny little eighth-of-an-inch incisions and which only causes a little bruising. I also offer more involved surgical procedures such as breast lifts, tummy tucks, Mommy Makeovers and lower body lifts where I’m removing fat, tightening muscle and removing skin at the same time.
