I hear this often, and I completely understand it.

Most patients aren’t asking to look like a different person. They simply want the face they see in the mirror to appear more awake and refreshed.

Sometimes that means addressing heavy eyelids, under-eye bags, descended brows, or changes in facial volume. The right recommendation depends on what’s actually creating that tired appearance, and that answer is different for everyone.

My goal is never to erase your age. It’s to help you look refreshed and still completely like yourself.

As a breastfeeding mom of two, I understand firsthand how much your body can change through motherhood.

A mommy makeover isn’t about getting your “old body” back. It’s about choosing what helps you feel most confident in the body you have now.

Ni****ne can really compromise your plastic surgery results.

It restricts blood flow and limits the oxygen your tissues need to heal, increasing the risk of delayed healing, infection, wound separation, and tissue loss.

And it isn’t just ci******es. Vapes, pouches, gum Ni****ne can compromise your plastic surgery results.

Be honest with your plastic surgeon. It’s about protecting your safety and final result.

Sometimes the first person to notice aging around your eyes isn’t you. It’s your eyeliner.

If you’ve started pulling your eyelid up to apply makeup, losing your eyeshadow in a fold that did not used to exist, or wondering why your eyeliner suddenly has nowhere to go, excess upper eyelid skin may be part of the problem.

Upper blepharoplasty removes excess skin from the upper eyelid and can create a more open, rested appearance without changing the character of your face!

I love a blepharoplasty. I do not love asking it to do a job it cannot do. 👀

Dark circles under the eyes can come from pigmentation, thin skin, visible blood vessels, hollowing, shadows, genetics, or a combination of several things.

Lower eyelid surgery can be incredibly effective when bags, excess skin, or fat are contributing to the problem. But if the darkness is coming from something else, removing skin isn’t going to magically erase it.

This is why we diagnose before we treat. The goal isn’t to sell you a bleph. It’s to figure out what’s causing you to look tired in the first place!

Please stop apologizing to me during your breast consultation.

You do not need to apologize because you didn’t shave, your bra is ugly, your breasts aren’t symmetrical, you gained weight, you breastfed, you have stretch marks, or you have no idea what cup size you are.

I’m a plastic surgeon. Bodies are quite literally my job. I’m much more interested in what bothers you, what symptoms you’re having, what you want to change, and what would make you feel comfortable in your body.

Come as you are.

My favorite kind of plastic surgery is the kind people can’t quite put their finger on.

Upper blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, doesn’t have to change the way you look. For the right patient, the goal is simply to remove the heaviness around the eyes that has slowly appeared over time.

You still look like you. Just a little more rested, a little brighter, and maybe suspiciously well-rested for someone with children.

If your friends ask whether you changed your hair or went on vacation, I consider that a win.

We prefer a more hands-on approach to conflict resolution. 🤗

If your breast implants are 10 years old, you do not have to throw them a retirement party.

The idea that breast implants must automatically be replaced every 10 years has been repeated so often that people assume it is a rule. It isn’t.

What matters is how you’re doing, how your implants are doing, whether you’ve noticed changes, and what your exam and recommended imaging tell us.

If you have older breast implants and haven’t thought about them in years, that doesn’t necessarily mean you need breast implant replacement. It might just mean it’s time to check in!

Every single time.

A consultation isn’t about finding a reason to operate. It’s about listening to what’s bothering you, talking through your options, and being honest about whether surgery will actually get you where you want to go.

Sometimes the best recommendation I can give you is that you don’t need surgery at all.
