Not all plastic surgeons are equal, meaning it is increasingly crucial that patients do their due diligence to guarantee they have found someone that will carry out their procedure correctly. After all, many agree there is little worse than undergoing the procedure and having the outcome look obvious. Alternatively, a procedure that knocks one off their feet for many weeks due to the evasiveness may also be unfavorable. Moreover, many agree that the right procedure also includes proper patient care in an experience that ensures maximum comfort.
So, what constitutes a procedure done right?
Minimizing Procedure Evasiveness
Dr. Neinstein NYC specializes in a procedure known as the mommy makeover. A Mommy Makeover is a collection of aesthetic procedures designed to address pregnancy-related body changes. Because each woman’s body is different, a highly tailored approach is required to address your specific goals and customize your individualized treatment.
When done right, patients should receive a procedure that is as minimally as invasive as possible. Consider an example. One mother found that after researching surgical solutions, including several consultations, she had only a little bit of fat to remove. Even so, she found that many surgeons would require her to undergo a full tummy tuck that may result in a large scar adding a burden to the process.
An experienced surgeon like Dr. Neinstein will likely recommend using more advanced techniques, such as a partial tummy tuck instead of a full one. In this example, Neinstein considered a technique that would allow him to sew up the muscles without removing or replacing the belly button, thereby minimizing the evasiveness and ensuring minimal scarring.
No Two Patients Are The Same
Plastic surgery should also be individualized to the patient since there is never a “one-size-fits-all” or “cookie-cutter” solution for everyone. A plastic surgeon who does things right will often take the time to understand patients’ goals by undergoing a procedure and their expectations. From there, they will make a personalized plan to help patients achieve their goals while considering factors including their current lifestyle.
The key is that while outcomes might be the same, to improve the appearance post-baby, what looks good on one woman might look unnatural on another.
Innovative Techniques For The Most Natural Look
While most surgical pursuits aim to reverse injury or disease to return to baseline, in Plastic Surgery, doctors can enhance form and function. However, enhanced doesn’t mean a fake appearance or unnatural. Instead, many patients agree that coming out of a procedure like the mommy makeover, they hope to only enhance the features on their body that they can’t fix themselves.
Unfortunately, some patients found that doctors were going too far in ensuring that they looked better than before, to the point that the outcome wouldn’t look natural. One mother relates that she already had a larger butt. Still, doctors recommended getting an even bigger one to make her waist look smaller with a significant Brazilian butt lift (BBL_ option. Although this is what some patients are hoping for, an exaggerated look, many moms are seeking something more natural to enhance the amazing features they already have. Therefore, they hoped to achieve a lead, strong, athletic look that ultimately looks natural.
Dr. Neinstein and his clinic also look at using multiple devices to ensure the best outcome in plastic surgery. These procedures aim to improve overall contour and skin tightness and ensure that incisions are as small as possible, in many cases less than one centimeter. The team specializes in the use of an ultrasound-based device known as VASER. VASER employs ultrasound waves to break up and liquefy fat cells, allowing them to extract more easily. After using the device to soften fat, surgeons will use a small liposuction cannula to extract fat gently.
Additionally, Neinstein’s clinic looks to advancements in fat grafting to ensure it is a patient’s fat extracted in liposuction and then injected into areas requiring natural augmentation. The benefit is that silicone implants and other foreign materials become obsolete, and patients can benefit from a more natural process and appearance.
Proper Care for Recovery
Lastly, plastic surgeons often aim to keep the recovery time short and ensure the patient is back on their feet in no time. Scars from the procedure will fade over time. Dr. Neinstein’s clinic will frequently recommend using an antibiotic ointment to heal the incision for two weeks before using Skinuva and silicone scar patches. Additionally, plastic surgeons may recommend some painkillers to ensure the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.
