Why do some patients split their surgeries into two stages? This is a perfect example. 👇

This patient had 2 separate surgeries, 2.5 months apart:

Stage 1: Extended tummy tuck + breast lift
Stage 2: Brachioplasty + arm liposuction (2.5 months after her first surgery)

Spacing procedures out gives the body time to recover fully, reduces surgical risk, and allows us to focus on delivering the best outcome for each area independently.

The result? A full transformation that looks and heals beautifully!

This patient gave me permission to share her incredible journey — and I’m so grateful she did. 🌸

Reason #3 why I think patients should NOT get plastic surgery: to ‘enhance’ normal features.

This might be the most controversial thing a plastic surgeon can say. 👇

Sometimes, you don’t need surgery.

I’ve had patients come in wanting to change something about themselves that is genuinely beautiful. Sometimes we distract from our own bodies in trying to create something we aren’t. It’s important to recognize that you are beautiful just the way you are!

Reason #2 why I think patients should NOT get plastic surgery: to save a relationship. 🚫

Plastic surgery can do a lot of things. It can restore confidence. It can change how you feel in your own skin. But it cannot repair a relationship. That work happens somewhere else entirely.

You deserve to make this decision for one person only: yourself. ❤️

Why I’ll tell you NOT to get plastic surgery. 🚫
⁣⁣
Reason #1: You want to lose weight.⁣

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. Neither is a tummy tuck.⁣
I tell every patient the same thing: lose the weight BEFORE surgery - not because of it.⁣ These procedures are designed to refine and contour a body that’s already at or near its goal weight.
⁣
The best surgical outcomes start long before you ever step into an operating room.⁣

When I first met this patient, we talked about her goals and created a plan together. She put in incredible work losing a significant amount of weight before surgery. Once she was ready, we moved forward with a tummy tuck to complete her transformation.

Here are her beautiful results. ✨

I use saline deflation as a tool for patients who are considering removing or replacing their saline implants. By deflating the implant, they can see how their breasts look without implants and decide whether they want new implants, prefer their natural size, or may benefit from a lift.�
It’s essentially a sneak peek to how they would look with simply removing implants.

This is not definitive treatment — surgical removal of the implant shell is still required. Deflation is simply a step to help patients determine which procedure is right for them.

How strong are breast implants? Strong enough to make a plastic surgeon break a sweat! 😅�
Today, Dr. Yates puts a silicone breast implant used in real patients to the test—trying to pull it apart to show you just how tough implants really are! 💪�

Just two days post-op, and this patient was already experiencing the relief and excitement that comes with a full-body rejuvenation. 💫

She underwent a dramatic breast lift paired with a full tummy tuck. To restore upper-breast fullness, Dr. Yates used 300 cc implants. Notice the blue markings on her abdomen... these indicate where her breasts naturally sat before surgery.
