If your breasts have lost volume after childbirth, you’re not alone! Breast implants can give you a fuller look. If your breasts are sagging, your surgeon may recommend a lift in addition to augmentation.

"What other treatment can turn back time 10, 15, even 20 years while keeping you looking like yourself? That's the power of a well-executed facelift."

Thank you to our amazing patients who trust us with their care and share their journeys. These relationships mean everything to us. 🫶

Many women begin their surgical journey by talking to a friend or relative who has had a breast augmentation. That can be a helpful starting point, but your most valuable resource is a personal consultation with a plastic surgeon.

Consultations are quick, and an expert opinion helps you understand the benefits, risks, and which implant options are best suited to your body.

The fabric matters just as much as the tailoring.

As a surgeon, I can expertly re-drape and contour your tissue, but I can't change the quality of what I'm working with. Your skin and tissue quality set the foundation for your results.

That's why skincare, proper nutrition, and exercise aren't just recommendations. They're essential partners in your transformation journey. When you invest in both the procedure and the foundation, that's when we see truly exceptional outcomes.

How long do the results of liposuction last?

The results from liposuction are permanent. However, significant weight gain can reverse your results. Liposuction surgery is not a “free pass” for life. But with the right care, you can enjoy your new body for years to come.

A face lift is a procedure that rejuvenates and restores the appearance of the face and neck. As we age, the effects of gravity, exposure to the sun, and the stresses of daily life can be seen in our faces. Deep creases form between the nose and mouth; the jawline grows slack and jowly; folds and fat deposits appear around the neck. A face lift (technically known as rhytidectomy) can’t stop this aging process but what it can do is “set back the clock”. It does so by improving the most visible signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles, and redraping the skin of your face and neck. In addition, it can lift the underlying structure of your face in a natural and pleasing way.

Today’s facelift surgery has significantly improved and advanced upon face lifts of the past. Our goal is to keep you you, only better.

Every year in our office, we see hundreds of women who are loving and proud mothers. As a result of having had children, their bodies have changed. Most often they point to their breasts and their tummies as areas that are no longer as pleasing to them as they used to be.

This patient underwent a Mommy Makeover, which included an extended breast reduction, an extended abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), and liposuction of the anterior flanks.

Dr. Filip became passionate about plastic surgery during medical school at the University of Arizona while researching regenerative and reconstructive biomaterials. He went on to train as a specialist in plastic surgery at Loma Linda University Medical Center, graduating as Chief Resident.

Later, his research into facial aging gained national attention in popular media. Dr. Filip has also presented collaborative research on integrating multiple advanced breast reconstruction techniques. Dr. Filip has been a scientist his entire life, participating as a finalist at the International Science and Engineering Fair twice in high school.

As an artist Dr. Filip is an avid carpenter and enjoys woodworking, building furniture, and home improvement. “Many plastic surgeons draw or paint and I enjoy designing beautiful pieces. The real interest for me though is learning techniques to build something that is not only beautiful, but comfortable, fitting for the space, and durable for decades. Plastic surgery requires the same mindset.”

This patient had an upper & lower blepharoplasty paired with a TCA peel.

Recovery after an eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) tends to be quick. The tissues usually heal rapidly. After the surgery, the eyelids may feel tight and sore as the anesthesia wears off. This discomfort can be controlled with medication. The head should be elevated for several days, and the use of ice packs will help reduce swelling and bruising. Sometimes, you can produce excess tears or experience dryness of the eyes. You will be using eye drops regularly.

Most sutures are removed 5 to 7 days after surgery.

Most patients are able to read or watch television after a day or two and can be back to work in 3 to 5 days.
