About
Bio
As the Medical Director of BEAUTY by BUFORD, I am double board certified in Plastic Surgery as well as Anti-Aging/Restorative Medicine and am the author of "Beauty and the Business". My surgical practice focuses on Breast Enhancement (primary/secondary), Body Contouring, and Minimally Invasive Facial Rejuvenation.
I am a graduate of the University of California, San Diego, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, the Baker-Stuzin-Baker Aesthetic Surgery Fellowship, and the A4M Anti-Aging/Restorative Fellowship.
I speak to a number of top medical conferences each year on several topics including secondary breast revision, facial injectables, laser resurfacing, medical skin care, social media, as well as methods for achieving top notch customer service.

It depends...: In most cases, we generally wait until a patient is at least 18 years of age before proceeding with a breast augmentation. But that age may be somewhat flexible given pre-existing circumstances such as severe asymmetry. I also try and assess underlying reasons for the surgery and level of maturity of the patient (as I do with a patient at any age!).

Doubtful: It's very unlikely that tightening of the rectus muscles during a tummy tuck will cause changes in the curvature of the spinal column. During this procedure, we suture fascia to fascia and this connective tissue can only hold so much tension before it tears. As such, it would be highly unlikely that there would be enough tension to actually cause this effect.

It depends: I perform a significant number of tummy tucks (witch hazel) each year for my young mothers and feel that this is a great procedure when done by a qualified plastic surgeon with experience in this area.
I generally recommend waiting a few months following a c-section so that soft tissue swelling has gone done and your hormones have returned to a more natural state.
