Guitar Friday is back—and this one might only take you a few notes.

Today, Dr. Salcedo is playing his Martin Custom Shop 00-18, featuring an Adirondack spruce top and mahogany back. A beautiful guitar for a beautiful song.

Your hint: This song is by one of his favorite guitar players… Eric Clapton.

Are we going to start seeing more of this procedure in the coming years? Let us know what you think ⬇️

For this patient, Dr. Salcedo reduced excess volume in the upper “shelf” of the buttocks, then strategically transferred fat to areas of the hips that had uneven volume.

Why remove fat AND add it back elsewhere? Placement matters. Reducing fullness in one area while filling hollows in another can help create smoother transitions and more balanced proportions.

Her result: a smaller, softer contour that better reflects the look she wanted.

A BBL reversal is a personalized reshaping procedure. The goal is to refine the size and contour based on your anatomy and preferences.

Individual results and recovery vary.

A smaller incision sounds appealing—but can it address the amount of loose skin you actually have?

A mini arm lift limits the incision to the armpit area. When excess skin extends farther down the arm, that limited approach may leave behind more looseness than a patient expects.

Dr. Salcedo explains his concerns:
▫️ An armpit scar without enough improvement in the arm’s contour.
▫️ Possible “dog ears”—small bunches of excess skin at the ends of the incision.
▫️ Limited tightening when more extensive skin removal is needed.

That’s why he says he doesn’t offer “mini” procedures in his practice. His approach is to match the operation to the correction each patient needs.

A full arm lift involves a longer scar, but allows more extensive removal of loose skin. That trade-off deserves an honest conversation before surgery.

Limited-incision lifts can suit select patients with minimal excess skin. The right approach depends on your anatomy, goals, and willingness to accept scars. Results and scar healing vary.

How Total Sculpting Lipo is superior to regular liposuction ⬇️

Regular liposuction removes localized fat to improve body contours and can treat one or several areas. With his Total Sculpting Liposuction approach, Dr. Salcedo takes a broader view: how the entire upper-body silhouette fits together.

Depending on the patient’s anatomy and goals, his plan may include:

📍 The fat pad at the back of the neck
📍 The shoulder area
📍 The bra roll
📍 The hips
📍 The abdomen
📍 The flanks, or “love handles”

Why look at all these areas together? Because contouring one area affects how the areas around it look. Planning them together helps us work toward smoother transitions and more balanced proportions—from the upper back down through the waist and hips.

The goal? A naturally contoured, slimmer-looking frame with that “Coke-bottle” silhouette: a defined waist that flows into your curves. 🍾

It’s not about removing the most fat possible. It’s about thoughtful placement of those changes to complement YOUR frame.

Liposuction is body contouring, not a weight-loss treatment. Your anatomy and skin elasticity influence what’s achievable, and results vary.

My wife’s timing deserves some credit for this guitar deal. 😂🎸

I’m at a collector’s house, negotiating over a rare Brazilian rosewood guitar. Beautiful instrument. Very interested. Very much NOT agreeing on the price.

Then my phone rings.

“Where are you?” 📞

Now I’m having a conversation with my wife while trying to finish an entirely different conversation with the collector… silently.

A little eye contact. A counteroffer. A head shake. We’re still too far apart.

So I start heading out. At this point, I’m thinking this Guitar Friday is ending empty-handed. 🥲

But apparently, watching me actually walk toward my car made my offer a little more attractive.

Right when I thought the deal was dead… he agrees. 🤝

Next thing you know, I’m walking to my car with a guitar case and loading it into the trunk at a price I couldn’t pass up.

Assuring Marcella I’ll be home shortly. Please don’t send her this reel.

My wife called to find out where I was and accidentally helped close the deal.

Happy Guitar Friday 🎸

See that red glow beneath the skin? It’s helping us target what’s causing those cellulite dimples. 👀🔴

In this reel, Dr. Salcedo demonstrates Avéli—and shows an actual cellulite band released during treatment. Here’s what’s happening beneath the surface:

🔗 What causes the dimples?
Fibrous connective tissue bands called septa connect the skin to deeper structures. When certain bands pull tightly downward, they create depressions in the skin while the surrounding tissue sits higher. That uneven tension contributes to the dimpled appearance of cellulite.

🔴 What does the red light do?
The light shines through the skin, helping Dr. Salcedo track the location of the device’s hook as he works beneath the areas identified in our pre-op markings. It’s a navigation tool; the light itself doesn’t cut the bands.

✂️ How does Avéli release them?
Through a small incision, the device is guided beneath the skin. Its hook helps identify the bands responsible for the targeted dimples, and its cutting mechanism releases them. Dr. Salcedo can then check that the tethering has been released.

Releasing that downward pull helps reduce the appearance of the treated dimples as the area heals. Results and recovery vary.

Save this if you’ve ever wondered what cellulite actually looks like beneath the skin. 🤍

Her biggest concerns before surgery: scars and looking proportionate. Eight months later, she’s sharing her experience. 🤍✨

After breast implant removal, replacement, and a lift with Dr. Salcedo, our patient reflects on the questions that mattered most to her:

💭 How noticeable would my scars be?
💭 Would my breasts look balanced with my body?

Seeing Dr. Salcedo’s previous results helped reassure her about taking the next step. Now, after seeing her own results, she says those concerns have been put to rest.

Choosing surgery is a personal decision, and feeling comfortable with your surgeon’s work is a meaningful part of that process. We’re grateful she trusted us with her care and is sharing her perspective with others considering a similar procedure. 🫶

Watch to hear her testimonial, eight months into her journey.

Individual results and scar healing vary.

A fuller-looking breast shape using your OWN tissue.

Auto-augmentation is a technique we offer with our breast lifts to make the most of the breast tissue you already have.

During a lift, we remove excess skin, reshape the breasts, and reposition the ni***es. With auto-augmentation, we also rearrange and secure existing breast tissue higher within the breast, with the goal of creating a more rounded, youthful contour.

So how can your breasts look full even after some tissue is removed?

It comes down to where the remaining tissue sits. Tissue that was hanging lower can be repositioned to help shape the lifted breast. Even when a reduction is part of the plan, we can focus on preserving and reshaping tissue where it contributes to your desired contour.

✨ A more lifted breast position
✨ Improved shape and proportions
✨ Your own tissue used to help create fullness

Auto-augmentation redistributes existing volume. The amount of fullness achievable depends on your anatomy and available tissue, and it won’t provide the same volume increase as adding an implant.

Your surgical plan should reflect both the size AND shape you want.

This tiny tool releases the tension behind cellulite dimples.

What causes those dimples? 🧐
Fibrous bands called septa connect your skin to the tissue underneath. When certain bands pull down on the skin, they create the tethering and indentations we recognize as cellulite. Genetics, hormones, and the structure of your connective tissue all play a role.

Here’s how Avéli targets those bands 👇

1️⃣ NUMB THE AREA
Local anesthesia helps keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.

2️⃣ CREATE A SMALL OPENING
Dr. Salcedo makes a tiny incision and guides the device beneath the skin toward the targeted dimples.

3️⃣ IDENTIFY + RELEASE
The device’s hook engages the bands responsible for pulling the skin down. A small blade within the device then cuts those bands, releasing the tension.

4️⃣ CHECK THE RELEASE
Dr. Salcedo checks the area to confirm the targeted bands have been released.

The goal is smoother skin through a minimally invasive treatment, typically completed in about an hour, depending on the treatment plan. 🤍

We perform this awake with local anesthesia. Numbing helps minimize discomfort, but everyone’s experience differs, and soreness, bruising, and tenderness can occur afterward. Improvement becomes clearer as swelling and bruising settle.
