Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of face and body. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done. Recognizing that patients are demanding new approaches to post-surgical scarring, Dr. Hughes offers a range of options selected on a per procedure, per patient basis. Some of those options offer a virtually scarless approach, and in bigger cases, they offer a significant reduction of scarring prominence.
Dr. Hughes’ unique approach to body lifts combines Lockwood’s technique for strengthening the subfascial system and detailed undermining for optimal skin tightening, while reducing the need for a posterior scar by utilizing a Brazilian Butt Lift approach, with or without implants, for reshaping and revolumizing.
