😮 Plastic surgery isn’t just for women, even though most of the content we share is of females, many men opt for these same procedures. In fact, scar quality and location becomes even more critical for men who cannot easily hide visible scars on their chests or abdomen.
•
This patient lost a significant amount of weight and opted to have a lower body lift and chest lift. In a single 6 hour surgery, a significant amount of skin was removed circumferential in his lower body as well as his chest. His nipples had to be relocated to remove the skin needed. His scars will be concealed along the edge of his muscle and arm out area (for a woman, we would place these in the bra line). What do you think of this young man’s weight loss transformation 👇?! 💪 🤩🥳😍#bodybycabbabe

LET’S SEE YOUR SCARS: WHY ARE THERE SO MANY MES

LET’S SEE YOUR SCARS: WHY ARE THERE SO MANY MESSED UP TUMMY TUCK SCARS???? 😠
Many patients are concerned about scar location and quality of scar. I’d go so far as to say that a lot of (non-board-certified PS) surgeons try to convince patients that it’s better to avoid tummy tucks and just have liposuction because you can avoid a scar. Honestly, the vast majority of tummy tucks done elsewhere that I see in my office have botched scars that were not placed low in the correct location or have wavy, curving irregularities, so I can’t blame a lot of patients for the desire to avoid a scar.
•
Genetics definitely plays a role in the actual scar quality, some will keloid regardless, but this is uncommon for the vast majority of my patients. Ultimately, the technical ability and experience of the surgeon is critical in determining overall scar location, appearance and quality. The scar should look like a bikini line when placed correctly. Unfortunately when patients are laying down in the operating room table with drapes and things like that you can never tell if the scars is in the correct location until you see the patient standing with their clothes lowered below the pubic area.

•
In cases of severe umbilical hernia, many patients benefit from removal of the old belly button, abdominal wall repair and new belly button creation. If the old belly button is used, the abdominal wall does not get fully repaired and the old belly button is difficult to shape and ends up very round and abnormally shaped. In these situations, I prefer to repair things fully and make a new button. 🪡

😮 WHEN YOU LOSE 180 POUNDS, AN EXTREME MAKEOVER

😮 WHEN YOU LOSE 180 POUNDS, AN EXTREME MAKEOVER IS IN ORDER. Removing over 6 feet of skin AND over 20 pounds of tissue is a major surgery and patients need to travel to the select few, true body contouring after weight loss experts in this country 🇺🇸 to have these done correctly and safely. 🚩 This surgery is the equivalent of 3 1/2 tummy tucks! @journey_the_doodle did her research, joined multiple forums and support groups after weight loss then came to see us for her surgery.
•
A lower body lift with fleur-de-tummy tuck and Brazilian butt lift was done for this patient in a single 6 hour surgery. Only one night stay in the hospital was@needed. This person is one week postop and already feeling and looking amazing! She said she has “no pain” at this point! 🥳. Scroll 👈 to see the posterior reveal and total tissue removed.

🌷3 week update on this botched lipo revision tu

🌷3 week update on this botched lipo revision tummy tuck case. This type of revision has become my number one revision surgery (at least 1 a week). These patients are always botched and irregular around their belly button and in th central portion of their abdomen. In this case, she was converted to a tummy tuck and I took advantage of her prior vertical scar to do a fleur-de-lis to@remove the area that was too thin in the middle of her abdomen. I think it turned out great, especially since she’s in her 50s and her skin quality isn’t as good as it used to be. What do you think 👇? #bodybycabbabe 🤩🥳😍

“I just can't say enough how grateful I am that

“I just can't say enough how grateful I am that I was able to have a surgeon like you! My results impress me everyday honestly I can't stop looking in the mirror! First baby at 17 years old I wasn't able to wear bikinis etc and feel confident now for the first time in years because of you. This was the best investment I have ever made!!”
•
At just 1 WEEK POSTOP, patients are maximally swollen after body contouring. Regardless, they can begin to see the early shape and result that they will ultimately have. It takes at least three months to get 90% of the swelling out and that number continues to increase for up to six months after surgery!
•
This patient is only one week postop from a 360 lower body lift, 360 liposuction and Brazilian butt lift. Her results are already significant and will become spectacular starting around 1 MONTH after surgery. Buttock shape after BBL is never impressive until at least 1 month post op when the #flufffairy🧚🏽‍♀️ appears! High Definition will be fully visible by 3 months.

SCAR PRECISION: the most common mistake I see in p

SCAR PRECISION: the most common mistake I see in patients with prior tummy tucks done elsewhere is scars that are too high, or too wavy.
•In my experience, over 90% of tummy tuck scars are placed INCORRECTLY by plastic surgeons. The more extensive the procedure, the more errors occur.
•In fact, most patients that have high and irregular scars aren’t even aware!
•Tummy tuck scars should be LOW, IN THE BIKINI LINE👙!
• If the scar isn’t low, no pubic lift was done and there will be a contour irregularity in the lower abdomen!
•The scar should be low, near the groin crease
•It should not be anywhere near the height of the belly button at any point, front or back!
•Body contouring is technically challenging and there are VERY FEW EXPERTS in the world! 🌎
• You cannot tell a plastic surgeon you want a low scar and expect that to happen, they either know how to do it or they don’t. Bottom line.
• Plastic surgeons don’t learn how to do these surgeries in residency, they learn on their own
and it requires extensive experience to learn how to do all aspects correctly.
• A scar may appear low on the table when the blue towels are placed but this is very deceiving because you can’t see the groin crease.

HELLO NEW BODY 👙🍑
•
This Plus Size (BMI 32) patient is ONLY 3 weeks post op from her INCREDIBLE TRANSFORMATION! She had an EXTENDED TUMMY TUCK, 360 LIPO and BBL 🍑!
All of this was done in only 1 surgery (5 hours)!
•
All of her abdominal and back rolls are gone! 🙌. It is extremely difficult to get this kind of result and you will rarely see this done in 1 surgery. Extensive liposuction is needed throughout the abdomen and back and this must be done VERY CAREFULLY in the abdomen - otherwise the risk of skin necrosis during the tummy tuck is high. What do you think of this patient’s amazing results 👇?! #bodybycabbabe🔥 🤩😍

She had AWAKE LIPO done and was dissatisfied with the result and sought a revision tummy tuck. Her surgery was more complex as a result, her skin was fibrosed and it was more difficult to locate her scars. She still has a couple of poke holes visible from that procedure, they should have been placed in the bikini line.
