You guys. I can’t believe 126k of you watched Tara’s video. I am absolutely blown away. Many of you have asked for an update on her, and she was kind enough to send one to me! Formal pictures to come after the holidays when we are back in the office. Merry Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄!

And now for a little longer term follow up. Let’s talk about adding volume to this 56 year old. Fat grafting played an important role in rejuvenating her face. I lifted and suspended her neck and jowl and temporal brow, but she had lost volume…in places you might not expect just looking at her preop. Like the shadow to the side of her chin/in front of her jowl, her cheeks and tear troughs, her temples. I think she makes a solid case for subtle, well-placed fat grafting being an important component of facial rejuvenation.

Sometimes it’s good to see in the “in between” and not just the long term results (although those are what really show you the lasting result). Everyone’s recovery is different. Tara did not have a drain in her brow lift and has more bruising as a result. But it has improved everyday. If you swipe and listen to her, she is just taking some occasional Tylenol and is taking care of herself at day 7. Now I will admit I’m letting her “fly” a little bit more than I do some patients because she knows what she is doing (Tara takes care of patients for me after surgery). But I’m posting her to point at that the journey is worth it. Her tails of her brow are up which have opened her eyes up. The aging roundness of her eyes was Al’s improved by opening up her brows. Her cheek volume is restored. The corners of her lips are softly elevated. Her jowls are gone. Her submental contour is restored. And doing her deep neck lift has allowed you to really see how beautiful the angle of her mandible is. I feel so lucky to have operated on her. She is as beautiful on the inside as on the outside.

Changes don’t have to be dramatic to be impactful. This morph was created by using the patient’s initial photo when she came to see me and then what she looked like TWO YEARS later. She never went to sleep for surgery. She is a prime example of what can be accomplished with fat grafting even fully awake in the office. This patient did not have a lower blepharoplasty. She had lost significant volume in her lower eyes and we subtly replaced the hollowing she had developed with fat transfer.
And a subtle little “tweak” to that lower face while she was awake and talking to me. Bye bye jowls.
Best part? It lasted. This is a two year result. Always check how far out a patient is from surgery. What you look like at 2 weeks doesn’t matter. What matters is that it is a durable, beautiful result that lasts. And you still look like you but refreshed.
Thanks for the morphing guidance. I think it’s my new favorite trick. Stay tuned for more of them. But mostly, thank you to this amazing patient for letting me share her beautiful face.

After being bothered by her lower eyelids since she was a teenager, this 37 year-old decided to have an upper and lower blepharoplasty. We removed the bags under her eyes, broke up her tear trough depression, used her own fat to fill the loss of volume in her tear trough, and tweaked her upper lids to open her eyes more. This smoothed the junction between her lower lid and cheek in a permanent way. No need for filler now!

Just wrapped up a great weekend at the American Society of Plastic Surgeons annual meeting in New Orleans. I was honored to have spoken on High SMAS Facelift, facial augmentation with fat grafting, and facial rejuvenation in the age of GLP-1 weight loss.
Not only are these meetings great opportunities to learn from peers, but also to catch up with friends from residency and learn what is coming from our industry partners.
In addition to learning about facial surgery, I spent my time learning about preservation breast augmentation and improving my subfascial (in front of the muscle) breast augmentation technique. Appreciate the opportunity to brain storm and learn from forward thinking friends and colleagues to offer the best to my patients.

So where was I this weekend? I went to Costa Rica to Establishment Labs to learn more about Motiva implants after using them since October last year. We began by touring the carbon neutral production facility that was a beautiful piece of art. Then we learned about the implants from their conceptions 15 years ago to how they’re made today as well as where this amazingly disruptive company is taking implants in the future to make breast implants safer and safer. It was inspiring to learn from .mariejaeger and to operate in the Motiva operating theater, learning their Preserve technique for preservation breast augmentation. And finally, brought together amazing female surgeons from around the country—some old friends and some new ones—in the spirit of their being a women’s health company not just a breast implant company.

One week after her rhinoplasty, stitches are out and splint is off. There were tears of joy, hugs, and laughter. Now it’s just some taping and time to let her see her final result as swelling continues to go down! Love taking care of and getting to know my patients!

This 51 year old patient came to me as a deflated A cup but wanted to stay an A cup. She came in today for her 6 week post-operative visit before heading out West for the winter. These are early photos at 6 weeks as a result. She simply said she didn’t want the top of her bra to gap anymore. She is an avid athlete and didn’t want large breasts that would be in her way. To customize her breast augmentation, we used her precise measurements to pick an implant that wouldn’t be too narrow for her but would still be small enough to accomplish her goals. I used the lowest profile implants available on the market from Allergan Natrelle INSPIRA line, and she and I chose an 200 cc and 230 cc implant to correct a subtle preexisting asymmetry. Breast augmentation can be whatever you want it to be with all the different variety of implants available today. You can be subtle or not subtle at all. The plan is to meet patient’s where they want to be.

This lovely patient came in one week out from face and neck lift and Sciton TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser). Stay tuned for more to come! She couldn’t wait to share her pictures with me!

As a native Memphian, Dr. Campbell is thrilled to put down roots at the Memphis Plastic Surgery Group. Plastic Surgery allows her to express her artistic eye to enhance a patient’s natural beauty.
In addition to her interests in cosmetic and reconstructive breast and body procedures, Dr. Campbell provides caring and state-of-the-art surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation including face-lift, neck lift, blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, fillers, botox, laser and chemical peels. She has a special interest in breast cancer reconstruction as well.
Her interest in plastic surgery developed early when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and treated at the Plastic Surgery Group. This led to a high school internship at PSG under Dr. Lou Adams. Dr. Campbell is passionate about the power of reconstructive surgery, which can restore not just a patient’s form but also their confidence and self-esteem.

She went on to train in New York City with an Aesthetic Surgery Fellowship at Manhattan Eye Ear and Throat Hospital. While working with prestigious leaders in plastic surgery and aesthetic surgery, she had her own clinic during that year and acted as staff for resident aesthetic surgery cases.
