It is typically performed to improve the appearance of the abdominal region and to create a smoother and firmer contour.

The procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis, under general anesthesia. During the surgery, the surgeon will make an incision in the lower abdomen, just above the pubic area. Through this incision, Dr. Mafi will remove excess skin and fat, and will tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. The incision will then be closed with sutures or staples.

Abdominoplasty is a major surgery and requires a significant recovery period. Patients can expect to experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort after the procedure, and will need to take time off work and other activities to allow their bodies to heal. It is important to follow the surgeon's post-operative instructions carefully to ensure a successful recovery.

Breast augmentation, also known as “a boob job,” is a surgical procedure that is performed to increase the size and fullness of the breasts. It is typically done using breast implants, which are silicone or saline-filled devices that are inserted under the breast tissue or muscle to add volume to the breasts. The procedure can also involve the use of fat grafting, in which fat is taken from another part of the body and injected into the breasts to increase their size.

Breast augmentation is usually performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia and the recovery period can take several weeks. It is typically done to improve the appearance of the breasts for aesthetic purposes, but it can also be used to restore breast volume that has been lost due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging.

Breast augmentation-mastopexy is a combination surgical procedure that combines breast augmentation with a breast lift. It is used to increase the size of the breasts and lift and reshape them at the same time.

During the procedure, a plastic surgeon will make an incision in the skin and create a pocket either behind the breast tissue or under the chest muscle. The surgeon will then place a breast implant into the pocket and reshape the breast tissue to lift and firm the breasts. The incision is closed with sutures, and the procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia.

There are several different types of breast implants available, including saline and silicone implants. The type of implant used will depend on the specific needs and goals of the patient.

The remaining tissue is then repositioned to create a more youthful and elevated breast contour. In some cases, breast implants may be used in conjunction with a breast lift to add volume to the breasts.

Breast reconstruction is a surgical procedure or set of procedures performed to restore the shape, size, symmetry, and appearance of a breast after a mastectomy or significant breast surgery. Mastectomy is the surgical removal of one or both breasts, often done as a treatment for breast cancer or as a preventive measure in individuals at high risk.

Breast reconstruction can be done using various techniques, and the choice of method depends on factors such as the patient's anatomy, overall health, cancer treatment plan, and personal preferences. There are generally two main approaches to breast reconstruction:

Implant-based reconstruction
This method involves using saline or silicone implants to recreate the breast mound. It may be done in one or two stages. In a two-stage procedure, a tissue expander is initially placed to stretch the skin and chest muscle gradually, followed by the placement of the permanent implant in a subsequent surgery.

Autologous tissue reconstruction
This approach uses the patient's own tissues, often taken from the abdomen, back, or buttocks, to reconstruct the breast. The most common type of autologous tissue reconstruction is the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap, where tissue and blood vessels are transferred from the lower abdomen to the chest.

Breast reconstruction can be performed at the same time as the mastectomy or delayed until after the initial surgery and any necessary adjuvant treatments like chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

The decision to undergo breast reconstruction is a personal one and depends on various factors, including the individual's preferences, health status, and the recommendations of their medical team.

Breast reconstruction aims to improve a person's quality of life by restoring a sense of wholeness and body image after the physical and emotional challenges associated with breast cancer treatment.
