Plano Mommy Makeover

Women who have experienced multiple pregnancies are often left with undesirable effects, such as sagging breasts and stretched-out abdominal muscles. Frequently, prospective Plano Mommy Makeover patients opt to undergo body contouring plastic surgery with Ronald M. Friedman, M.D. at the West Plano Plastic Surgery Center. Located on campus at the Presbyterian Hospital in Plano, mommy makeover patients can feel at ease knowing that they are in a safe environment. He also has a Flower Mound location.

Dr. Friedman's interest in plastic surgery stems from his fascination with art, science, and the human form. He is a gifted artist with more than 20 years of experience creating wood and marble sculpture.

In order to help a woman improve her contours, Dr. Friedman will carefully examine each patient and recommend the most appropriate procedures. His artistic touch helps him to produce natural-looking results when performing the "Mommy Makeover" surgery; this is a combination of breast augmentation ("augmentation mammaplasty"), breast lift surgery ("mastopexy"), liposuction ("lipoplasty"), and/or tummy tuck surgery ("abdominoplasty"). The contrast of obtaining larger, perkier breasts and a smaller, flatter abdomen is often striking.

Irving "Mommy Makeover" specialist Dr. Friedman may suggest breast lift surgery to elevate the breasts to a more youthful position and remove excess skin. Oftentimes, patients combine this with breast implants surgery in order to regain volume lost with pregnancy and/or weight loss. In women with only a small amount of sagging in the breasts, breast augmentation may be sufficient.

Tummy tuck surgery and liposuction can be performed together to help Frisco mommy makeover patients achieve a slender, better-contoured midsection. Abdominoplasty is designed to tighten the abdominal muscles and remove loose, excess skin in the stomach. Liposuction can also be performed on the hips, thighs, and "love handles," which generally provides patients with a slimmer figure. These body contouring procedures are an integral part of the "Mommy Makeover" surgery in Plano and Flower Mound.

Examples of Dr. Friedman's results are available in before and after Frisco and Plano Mommy Makeover plastic surgery photos. Further information may be obtained through educational videos and the Q&As. Patient testimonials may help prospective candidates gain insight into the care provided by Dr. Friedman and his staff.
