Abdominoplasty or Tummy Tuck

Tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a procedure to remove extra skin and fat in the tummy area.  Liposuction can remove excess fat, but often leaves extra loose and hanging skin.  To tighten up the abdominal wall the surgeon reinforces the abdominal muscles that have become loose with time or childbearing. Next, extra skin is removed to provide as tight and flat of a tummy as possible.  Often times the belly button is repositioned to remain in a correct position.  Dr. Orloff makes the incision as low as possible so it is well hidden by low cut pants and bathing suits.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia on outpatient basis. It can be combined with other procedures such as liposuction of flanks (love handles) or thighs.

When Thousand Abdominal Crunches are not enough

Many women try very hard to excersize and eat right. However, it is impossible to get rid of extra skin this way. Abdominoplasty surgery gives you a head start by removing the excess skin.

Postoperative recovery is very important to Dr. Orloff. He frequently utilizes a pain pump following a tummy tuck. This continuously infuses pain medication in the surgical site making your recovery much more comfortable. Patients get up with more ease and faster. They can return to their jobs and usual activities sooner. This also cuts down on the number of pain pills patients have to take and reduces the side effects of sleepiness, nausea, and constipation.

Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat from your abdominal wall. If you have internal fat, fat that can accumulate around your organs, that will remain. Abdominoplasty will improve your silhouette and make your abdominal wall tighter.

Mini Abdominoplasty

Some people do not have too much excess fat or extra skin and may be great candidates for Mini-Abdominoplasty. This operation focuses on the area bellow the belly button. Often times the belly button does not need to be moved in this operation.

During your consultation with Doctor Orloff you will have a chance to discuss your options. Doctor Orloff can recommend which procedures may be most appropriate for you.

Before and After Breast Augmentation Photos

Many women become more self-confident and proud of their appearance following breast enhancement. They feel they have achieved better body symmetry with breast augmentation. Breast surgery can be performed alone or in addition to other surgical procedures.

 

Help through the Difficult Time after the Assault

Dr. Orloff
Thank you so much for the
excellent care that you and your
staff provided for me over the past
few month. I am so pleased with
with how my reconstructive surgery
turned out & I am convinced I could
not have had a better surgeon to
do the job. I look as good as
new and I feel very privileged to
have been under your care. You
have one of the warmest and
nicest staffs out of any doctors
offices I’ve ever been to. Everyone
was always so friendly and took
such great care of me & it really
helped me to get through the
difficult period following my assault.
Thank you again – I am so
grateful for all that you have done!

I can’t find the words to thank you.

Breast Implants Come in Different Size and Shapes

What is a breast implant? A breast implant is a gel sac filled with either silicone or saline. There are several manufacturers in the United States that have been making breast implants for quite a long time. Breast implants can have different textures on the outside. They can be smooth or textured. They come in various shapes and sizes. When you meet with Doctor Orloff you can decide together which implants would best fit your needs.


If your Nose Gets Too Much Attention

The eyes should be the element of the face that is noticed first and gets the most attention, followed by the mouth. But if is your nose that is the most noticeable part of your face getting all the attention, and if there is not much that can be done with creative make-up, you might consider correcting this with a procedure called rhinoplasy, often referred to as a nose job.

A well formed nose ties the other elements of the face, eyes and mouth, together in a harmonious whole.

The Aesthetics of a Breast Augmentation

When deciding on size of breast implants the width of your chest, your body shape, and medical history are important. When you meet with Doctor Orloff you will have a chance to express your desires. Then, together you can look at available sizes and shapes and decide which implants would best fit you. If you are not sure that’s OK. You will have an opportunity to talk about what is important to you and we will help you reach a conclusion.


How is the Procedure Performed?

The breast augmentation procedure is performed in a board certified surgery center while you are comfortably anesthetized. There are several approaches. A very popular approach is through a small incision around the lower areola. A small opening is made and a pocket for the implant is developed under the breast tissue. The implant is placed inside the pocket. The opening is then closed using small sutures. This approach allows the incision to heal so well that in most cases one cannot identify the healed scar. Another way is through an incision on the lower breast or through the armpit. When you meet with Doctor Orloff you can decide together which approach would best suit your body shape.


Would you recommend our facility? – Absolutely!

Dr. Orloff and staff hone their service by asking patients for feedback after a procedure. This is done with a little questionnaire. Some patients take this as an opportunity to express their appreciation…

Kindly take a few minutes to answer the following questions so we can better serve your future needs. We appreciate you taking the time to complete this survey.

Were the instructions from the doctor and nurse explained clearly prior to the surgery?

Absolutely!

Did your anesthesiologist clearly answer all your questions?

Definitely!

Were all your questions answered adequately?

Yes, and wth quick responses.

Would you recommend our facility to a friend or a relative?

Absolutely! (Maybe even my husband!) I’ll be back for spider veins in the winter!

Please let us know what you liked and disliked about your surgical experience.

I loved the aftercare follow-up calls and flowers. I felt like your only patient with all the attentiveness. I could have done without the pain – (after surgery) –> Ahgg! Both Dr. Orloffs were so personable and polite and the other staff too.

Thank you!

Anchor Breast-Lift to Defy the Effect of Gravity

During your consultation Dr. Orloff might recommend a breast lift if you experience a change in shape or lack of firmness of your breasts due to skin inelasticity, gravity and other factors such as weight loss, pregnancy and breast-feeding, and if you are otherwise satisfied with the size of your breasts. A breast lift will raise your breasts and make them more firm, resulting in a more youthful breast contour.

Only if you have lost a significant amount of breast volume over time, Dr. Orloff might recommend implants to be used in conjunction with a breast lift procedure to increase breast size while enhancing the shape and position of the breasts at the same time. Depending on your line of work, it is usually possible to return to work within about a week after breast lift surgery. In many cases, you will be able to resume most of your normal activities, including some form of mild exercise, after several weeks.There are several types of breast lifts, which are described at the Buena Vista Surgery web site. The example shown here is an anchor breast lift, used to restore a perky breast appearance in defiance of gravity working relentless over the years.

The time after the surgery?

After surgery, you will initially wear a special post-surgical garment such as an elastic bandage or post-surgical bra for a short time, then followed by a soft support bra. Your breasts may be bruised and swollen, and you may experience some tenderness. These symptoms should subside in a short period of time. You will be instructed on how to care for your surgical wounds as well as any activity restrictions. Your surgical sutures will be removed at the time instructed by Dr. Orloff.

Moving bulges to the right place

Sometimes we have the right body mass, it’s just that it’s not distributed correctly, Plastic surgery can help to correct this unbalance.

If we want to build up one area and our body has the supply of material to do so, the plastic surgeon is able to perform this build-up without using any foreign substances – a more natural way than implants.

The following case demonstrates how the transfer of fatty tissue from tummy and flanks to the buttocks results in much more pleasing proportion and shape. Many years of experience combined with an eye for aesthetics allow Dr. Orloff to accomplish this feat.
