I specialize in breast procedures such as breast reduction at my plastic surgery practice near Phoenix. Breast reduction isn't as widely publicized as breast augmentation, and as a result, I often find that my breast reduction patients have a lot of questions. Here are my answers to some of the most common questions about the …
How do you plan ahead to make sure you will be happy with your breast augmentation results? Celebrities like Heidi Montag and Lisa Rinna have come forward recently with admissions that they regret some of their plastic surgery choices. At my Phoenix-area practice, my patients know that I make every effort to communicate realistic expectations …
This is a question I encounter quite frequently. Women and men often come to my office in Scottsdale for liposuction thinking that it will help to correct their protruding belly. Liposuction is a far more common procedure than abdominoplasty, so it makes sense that people are more familiar with this option. And, frankly, liposuction has …
If you asked every cosmetic surgeon in Phoenix this question, you'd get a wide range of different answers. I am typically very conservative when it comes to performing surgery on younger patients, and my Scottsdale rhinoplasty patients are no exception. Although last year in the U.S. more than 17,000 nose surgery procedures were performed on …
Summer isn't the only time we need to focus on protecting and treating our skin; skin care is a year-round commitment. This is especially true during the winter months, when the air is drier and the pressure is on to look great at holiday parties. Recently, I added a few new products to the skin …
As surgeons, we have many responsibilities. Our patients trust us to do our best work, protect their safety, and provide optimal results.

We must listen to our patients in order to do …
You wouldn't drive drunk, and you'd pull over if you were falling asleep while driving. So, if your surgeon tells you it's not safe to drive after surgery, you'd follow their instructions, right? After plastic surgery some patients choose to get behind the wheel before being given the green light from their surgeon, but it's …
The highly personal nature of labiaplasty can make it difficult for our Phoenix, AZ, area patients to discuss. The stigma or taboo that still surrounds this procedure may prevent women from getting the information they need. I want to start a discussion about labiaplasty, as it has the potential to make a positive impact on …
As a plastic surgeon, I need to be open-minded and well-informed about what modern technology has to offer. My top priority has to be the safety and efficacy of the procedures I perform for my patients. If technology can improve safety or efficacy, then my goal is to implement it at my practice. However, I …
Every plastic surgeon has a slightly different philosophy about plastic surgery. At my practice, achieving a natural look is a top priority. In general, my patients want to enhance their appearance without it being evident that they've had surgery. I, too, prefer to avoid a "fake" look for aesthetic reasons and, perhaps more importantly, health …
