A nonsurgical approach to facial rejuvenation was what this 52 year old woman was seeking. She did not want to keep coming back for more treatments and therefore chose to have the permanent filler Bellafill to help with the volume loss she had from aging. She had 5 syringes in total added. The areas treated were her lower lids, her marionette lines and nasolabial folds. A cannula was used.
Rhinoplasty or nose job for a nose that was crooked and too big from the side

She had a rhinoplasty procedure with a 24 hour recovery. As a result, she had her splint removed at 48 hours and was travelling on a plane at 72 hours after her rhinoplasty or nose job surgery.
Chin Augmentation for Retrognathia
A chin augmentation with either a filler or a chin implant had been on this woman’s mind for years. She had always wondered about what kind of difference a chin augmentation would make but never knew it would make the large impact that it did. She researched chin augmentation with fillers to begin with but after finding out that fillers work well in individuals with a mildly retracted chin but would not work very well in her case. She was concerned about the cost of chin augmentation with an implant but discovered that it can easily be done under local anesthesia and that the recovery is really only about a half day. She had minimal swelling and bruising after her chin implant was placed.
No Drain tummy tuck after 3 children
Tummy tuck surgery or abdominoplasty had been on this 35 year old mind for some time. After 3 pregnancies, she had a very loose tummy or abdomen and her abdominal muscles were wide apart (a rectus diastasis). She researched tummy tuck price and cost, tummy tuck scars and tummy tuck or abdominoplasty recovery. She did not want to have drains and narcotics after surgery, so he looked for a plastic surgeon who offered a NO Drain, rapid recovery tummy tuck or abdominoplasty.
Breast Augmentation in a 36 year old
“Breast augmentation has been on my mind for year. I have always wanted breasts that are proportionate to my body in my eyes and I have the money and time for breast implants now.”, is what this woman said when we asked why, at 36, she had decided to have a breast augmentation. She had a 24 hour rapid recovery breast augmentation and was amazed that she was up and doing most everything the next day and was back to the gym the next week with essentially her full work out.
Her breast implants are Sientra’s natural feeling gummy bear implants placed above the muscle. They are 325 cc moderate profile breast implants.
Neck Lift using a MACS Facelift Technique
At 63 this woman had been considering a facelift or a neck lift for some time. She was worried that her face lift result would look unnatural and that the recovery from a face litft would take a lot of time away. She had a laser facelift a number of years ago but found that it did not last and was not that effective.
She investigated a number of facelift techniques including a SMAS facelift, a mid-face lift, a thread lift, an S lift, a quick lift, a lunch time facelift, a mini facelift and a MACS but she just got confused. When she came for a facelift consultation she learned that she only needed a neck lift in order to deal with her issues which were her jowls and excess skin of her neck.
A MACS facelift technique was used to do her neck lift. In this neck lift surgery, short scars are used or Minimal Access scars and the underlying tissue is suspended to the zygoma bone which is cranial bone, hence the term, Cranial Suspension.
She has a rapid recovery neck lift and was able to get out shopping the next day with some makeup to cover her bruising.
Breast Augmentation to go from an A cup and wanted a D cup.
Breast augmentation had been on this woman’s mind for a long time. 6 months after her breast implant surgery she says that she feels for more confident about herself. She says that she her self image about her body has changed drastically for the good. She says that she went from an A cup to a D cup and could not be happier.
She was concerned with breast implant safety including breast implant illness and had researched implants brands extensively. She chose to have Sientra’s natural feeling gummy bear, tear drop breast implants placed using an inframammary fold incision of just 4 cm. Her breast surgery employed a 24 hour rapid recovery breast augmentation protocol which reduces complications as well as pain to the point that the recovery does not require any pain medication other than Aleve.
Neck lift to deal with Jowls and Neck
This 48 year old woman did not like her neck and jowls. She felt that she looked older than she felt when she saw herself in a video conference. She was interested in mini neck lift surgery. She looked at a lot of neck lift before and after photos on line and decided that she wanted a neck lift with short scars or incisions and for the results to look natural and not over done.
Her neck lift surgery was performed under local anesthesia and she had a 24 hour recovery protocol that allowed her to be back at her online work the next day with some makeup to cover the minimal bruising that she got after the surgery.
Breast augmentation restores pre-pregnancy volume
This 36 year old mother wanted to get the breasts back that she had prior to children. In her research, she looked at breast augmentation recovery, and for breast augmentation information in Seattle, Bellevue and Kirkland, WA. She also wanted the safest breast implant she could get.
She chose to have a 24 hour rapid recovery breast augmentation with Sientra’s natural feeling, gummy bear breast implants. She was doing things with her children the very next day after her breast augmentation surgery and is very pleased with the shape and fell of her breast implants.
Breast Augmentation for proportion
This 30 year old woman wanted bigger breasts to match her body frame. She studied the best looking breast implants using the before and after breast augmentation galleries of plastic surgeons and said that Sientra breast implant before and after photos looked amazing to her. She chose to have a 24 hour rapid recovery breast augmentation with Sientra’s round moderate profile, natural feeling, gummy bear breast implants. This is what she had to say about her breast enlargement surgery on a review, “I got breast implants, and the recovery was a breeze! The 24hr Recovery is real. I was skeptical, but honestly the worst part of the whole thing was the nausea from the anesthesia (which isn’t an issue for most people). The pain from the surgery was very manageable. Each day I saw a big improvement in terms of my pain and range of motion. I took a total of 3 Aleve after the surgery. After the first 2 days I was already back to most of my usual activities and only needed occasional help. Absolutely worth every penny.” She is seen here at one month after her breast augmentation.
Breast Augmentation Gives Her Confidence
This 26 year old woman had been researching her breast augmentations for a long time. She was particularly interested in the recovery for breast augmentation or breast implant surgery. Interestingly, she was originally interested in a breast augmentation with a fat transfer procedure but when she discovered that fat transfer for breast augmentation can require more than one surgery and can be unpredictable, she decided to have breast implants placed.
She says that she feels more confident with her body. She also finds clothing easier as well. She had Sientra’s natural feeling, tear drop shaped, gummy bear breast implants placed above the muscle. This was done with the 24 hour breast augmentation recovery protocol.
Mommy makeover to get her pre-pregnancy body back
This woman wanted a mommy makeover because she lost a lot of volume in her breasts and her stomach was stretched out after having children. She searched mommy make over special as well as reviews of the best surgeons near her. She paid close attention to mommy makeover reviews as well as reviews for a breast augmentation plastic surgeon and tummy tuck surgeon since those were the plastic surgery procedures that she wanted for her mommy makeover. She lives in Seattle, WA so she also looked for mommy make over before and after photos or gallery of Bellevue plastic surgeons.
She was also concerned with the recovery form a mommy makeover. She chose to have a mommy makeover that consisted of a breast augmentation using Sientra’s natural feeling, gummy bear, tear drop shaped breast implants and a NO Drain tummy tuck or abdominoplasty. This was all done with a 24 hour, no narcotic recovery protocol and she was able to be up and around the next day, including driving a car.
Upper Eyelid surgery to get rid of saggy eyelids
I feel like my upper lids are looking my mother’s upper eyelids before she had an upper eyelid lift. My saggy eyelids made me look tired.

She had her eyelid lift in the office under local anesthesia and says it was much easier than she expected.
Breast augmentation to get her breasts back
Breast augmentation to get her breasts back. After having children, this 37 year old woman felt that she had lost a lot of her breast tissue and she wanted them back. She researched breast implant cost in Seattle and Bellevue, WA as well as breast augmentation recovery without narcotics. This led her to have a no narcotic, rapid recovery breast augmentation. Her before and after breast implant photos seen her were completed at 3 months. She said that before her breast augmentation she thought we were lying about how easy breast implant surgery and the recovery can be. She was very happy to find out that the recovery was, in fact, super easy.
She was also impressed by Sientra’s natural feeling, gummy bear breast implants in terms of their safety record. She had considered breast augmentation without implants using fat transfer but when she learned that the difference is usually less than one bra cup size she elected to have breast implants placed. She says that her breast now look amazing.
Eyelid lift to avoid looking tired, sad and old
A blepharoplasty or upper eyelid lift. This 67 year old woman felt she looked tired and old all the time. She had an upper eyelid lift or blepharoplasty and is seen here in these upper eyelid surgery before and after photos of her at 3 months after surgery. Upper eyelid surgery is very simple. The recovery is just a day and the bruising can easily be covered the next day. This surgery can be done in an office settling under local anesthesia which keeps the cost of upper eyelid surgery very reasonable.
A neck lift for a refresh
This woman would have preferred to have a neck lift without surgery, but, to date, there are no longer term non-surgical solutions to the aging neck or loose skin of the neck that bothers many women. She did not have a turkey neck or neck waddle but simply bands of extra skin in the middle of her neck that she did not like. She elected to have a simple neck lift under local anesthesia because this helps to improve the recovery time of a neck lift or facelift. Many people ask about platysma bands and if they need to be operated upon but that is rarely the case. Most patients do very well with a simple neck lift that tightens the muscle without having to have anything done to the platysmal bands. These photos of her before and after her neck lift surgery show what can be done with very limited neck lift incisions.
Breast implants help this woman to feel more confident.
Breast implants helped her feel more confident.
This woman wanted larger breasts for some time. She decided to have a breast augmentation because she could never fill out a bra properly and she was always very self-conscious of her small breasts for her size. She had Sientra’s natural feeling, teardrop shaped, gummy bear breast implants placed. These implants are the safest on the market for 2020. They have a 20 year warranty with funds for surgery if they fail as well as a life time warranty so they should last her lifetime. The rapid recovery, no narcotic, breast augmentation technique was used and she was moving normally at just a day or two after surgery. She now has a lot more self-confidence she says.
Breast augmentation after pregnancy in a 22 year old woman.
This 22 year old wanted a breast augmentation because she has had one child and she says that after her pregnancy she lost all of her youthful breast tissue. She wanted to get her breasts back. After researching boob jobs and looking up breast augmentation and breast implants near me she came across rapid recovery breast augmentation with no narcotics. She also wanted gummy bear breast implants. She had 565 HP round gummy bear breast implants made by Sientra placed above the muscle. She was able to take care of her child at home, by herself, the very next day.
I do not want to look 83 so I need a facelift
Her upper eyes, neck and jowls were what really bothered her. She elected to have a facelift, an upper eyelid lift and Bellafill around her mouth to rejuvenate her looks. She says she does not feel 83 years old but she does not want to look 83 years old. The upper eyelid lift surgery or upper lid blepharoplasty removed the tired look as can be seen in these Blepharoplasty before and after photos. She was wondering about a mini face lift because she initially thought that a fill facelift would be too much for her at her age. She was amazed at her rapid recovery from her facelift surgery as well.
This was all done in the office under local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia and she felt that it was the way to go, “simple, easy and not general anesthesia side effects for days after). She say people comment all the time on how rested and youthful she looks. She thinks people can tell that something is different but they cannot really figure out what has changed.
A Tummy Tuck Is the best Thing Ever
Before her NO Drain, no narcotic, rapid recovery tummy tuck or abdominoplasty this patient said, “With my tummy apron hanging blow my lady parts, I have no self-esteem.” After her surgery, she was overjoyed with her new look. Clothing fit better. She was able to wear a tight T-shirt and she says it gave her a whole new look at life.
With the rapid recovery, she only took Aleve and was doing all her regular daily routines the next morning. She said that she had researched tummy tuck alternatives but there really was no good choice other than surgery. She had a breast reduction years ago and had drains with that procedure. She says they were awful and that is why she sought out the NO Drain tummy tuck or abdominoplasty in medical terms.
Thrilled with her new look after eyelid surgery
A saggy tired look of her eyelids was very troublesome to this 49 year old woman. Her eyes were lofted under local anesthesia and she was thrilled with the outcome.
Neck Waddle Cured with a Neck Lift
This 60 year old woman did not like the neck waddle that she developed over what seemed to be the last year or two. She was originally interested in a non-surgical thread lift or Instalift but when she found out that it would only last about 18 months she elected to have a neck lift. She also asked about a mini neck lift but with the large amount of crepey neck skin she had, this was not a good option for her as the result would have been disappointing. She was concerned about the recovery time form a neck lift as well but with the 24 hour recovery neck and facelift technique, she was in the shower the next day and able to be out doing things in public just a day later. Since the incisions for a neck lift are similar to the incisions for a limited or short scar facelift of mini facelift, they are very short, well-hidden and almost imperceptible at 3 months as seen in these before and after neck lift photos.
Breast Implants with rapid recovery
This 26 year old woman was interested in a breast augmentation surgery and was particularly interested in the recovery. She was concerned because she had heard that the recovery tome could be long and painful. She said that she researched the do’s and don’ts after breast augmentation surgery and for recovery tips on the internet when she found breast augmentation information on the rapid recovery and no narcotic technique. She felt that this was the best option for her.
She chose to have Sientra’s tear drop, gummy bear breast implants placed. In the first days she was able to do just about anything and then was able to return to her normal work out and return to work without any problem.
Sientra’s breast implants should last her lifetime. They have the best warranty in of all the breast implant brands on the market and are also the safest breast implant among the gummy bear breast implants.
My breast reduction has changed my life”
“My breast reduction has changed my life” is what this woman said about her breast reduction. Breast reduction surgery is one of the most gratifying surgeries that a plastic surgeon can perform because patients are so happy. A breast reduction also lifts the breast so that it is more perky. One of the goals of breast reduction surgery (reduction mastoplasty) or breast lift surgery (mastopexy) is to get the size and shape of your breast so that a bra is no longer needed. Alex can now work out, wear the clothing that she has wanted to for a long time but felt that she could not and generally is more self-confident. She found her breast reduction recovery to be very easy especially with the rapid recovery breast reduction that she had.

Facelift to look less sad and tired
This 61 year old woman did not like her tired and sad look and wanted to do something about it. She was concerned about the downtime and chose to have a rapid recovery facelift so that she could get back to work as soon as possible. She also wanted a natural looking facelift rather than a tightly pulled, “I had a facelift look”, so that few would know that she had a facelift. She was mostly concerned about her neck so a MACS lift was done to that her neck and jowls would look more youthful.
Neck lift in a 73 year old for a natural looking result.
73 year old woman had a facelift 10 years earlier but she has redeveloped her neck bands, jowls and excess skin of her neck. She was interested in a thread lift or Instalift procedure or neck lift without surgery but when she found out that an Instalift only lasts about 18 months she declined that procedure. She elected to have a neck lift done under local anesthesia which is perfect for the woman who is older in years and does not want to have general anesthesia. She had a rapid recovery neck lift and was back doing everything she normally does ant about 3 days with minimal bruising and swelling. Combined with a MACS facelift technique and a rapid recovery neck lift protocol, this procedure significantly reduces neck lift complications and neck lift costs.
Neck Lift/Facelift Refreshes This 73 year old.
This 73 year old woman did not like her neck and the aging she saw in her smile lines or marionette lines and nasolabial folds.

Bellafill is an excellent lower eyelid or under eye non-surgical filler solution that lasts at least 5 years and will last much longer but we do not have studies to show that.

As a lip filler, Bellafill is one of the best fillers since it is smooth and natural, can be placed superficially to remove lip lines as well as give more fill lips. With a dermal filler for the marionette lines also known as the laugh lines or smile lines the sad look that some women can have can be removed as in this case.
