What is the price of a mommy makeover?

Mommy Makeover Price Range
Jun 10, 2023

Cannot give an exact price without seeing you in person for a consultation, but range would be $13 to $16 thousand.

1 year post breast augmentation – Is this a double bubble?

Double Bubble Concern
May 11, 2023

No, you’re not being nit picking. How you feel about your body is a key. Anatomic implants don’t necessarily don’t give you the natural look you may have wanted. Matching the implant size with the body type and size of the chest wall is important. This is not a double bubble deformity. That is cause by placing an implant under the pectoral muscle when the patient has sagging breast. This is not the case with you.

Swelling after eating, 1 year post tummy tuck, what could be causing it?

Abdominal bloating post tummy tuck.
May 11, 2023

If your tummy tuck was done correctly, these symptoms would be in no relations to your tummy tuck. These symptoms may and can be unpleasant but an evaluation is recommended. Please consult with a gastroenterologist.

Extended tummy tuck vs lower body lift?

Tummy tuck vs lower body lift
May 11, 2023

I almost never recommend 360 lower body lift. Patients have fewer complications with tummy tuck. Combing these two procedures will require a hospital stay and most likely have complications with the lower body lift.

What to wear surgery day when going home and during recovery while wearing a binder and drainage on

Tummy Tuck – What to Wear Surgery Day & Recovery
Apr 25, 2023

We always recommend patients wear loose clothing, such as nightgowns or button-up shirts & sweats, on the day of surgery. Patients may wear whatever is most comfortable for them during their postoperative recovery period, as long as the abdominal binder is worn at all times. We suggest wearing a thin tank top/shirt between the incision & binder to avoid irritation.

Are there BMI restrictions for tummy tuck patients?

BMI Requirements for Tummy Tuck
Apr 25, 2023

Here at Godat Plastic Surgery, we require patients to achieve a BMI of 35 or under to qualify as surgical candidates for a tummy tuck. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus must have a BMI of 30 or under to qualify.

At what week post-op are you usually “in the clear” without having to worry about wound reopening?

Tummy Tuck/Wound Healing Recovery
Apr 25, 2023

Recovery time can vary based on the patient and their health history. The average recovery time for a tummy tuck procedure is 1 month. Around this time, the abdominal incision line is fully healed and the patient may be released to regular activity. We highly encourage patients to increase their protein intake before & after surgery to optimize healing!

Who is the Most Experienced Plastic Surgeon Who Specializes in Breast Augmentation Exchange and Mesh

A Procedure I Specialize in at my Practice in Dallas
May 28, 2013

I have been using the “Internal Bra” for many years and have had much success with it. It has successfully solved many women’s issues with bottoming out, asymmetry, and other complications that many women have sought relief for, but have not been able to find. The material I prefer to use, Strattice, is very difficult to work with, and it does require a specialized technique that I have perfected, so a large portion of my surgeries are actually this procedure, and women have come…

Breast Revision with Internal Bra and Lollipop Lift, I Want to Go Down a Cup Size, Would It Look Str

Internal Bra, Lollipop Lift and Downsizing- Easily done
May 23, 2013

Typically what we recommend for patients that want to decrease the size of their breasts, you have to do a minimum of 100 cc’s to make a visible difference. The lollipop lift would include an incision around the areola, going down vertically to the bottom of the breast and then under the breast, in the infra-mammary crease. In doing this, we could decrease the size of your areolas if desired, and we would be able to use the smaller sized implant of your choice….

When and Where is Permanent Internal Bra Surgery Available?

The Internal Bra IS Available- and Regularly Used in my Practice
May 23, 2013

The internal bra surgery is readily available at my office here in Dallas, Texas. The idea was initially conceptualized for breast reconstruction and is now being used regularly for breast augmentation, especially revisions. The internal bra is made of an acellular dermal material which is actually attached to the chest wall forming a “cup” to support the breast implant. The internal bra is not made of silicone, but the silicone implant sits in this hammock like cup tha…
