Body Contouring |
Although it seems like just about everyone is trying to perform liposuction these days, it is critical that prospective patients seek the help of plastic surgeons who are board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. These procedures are surgical in nature, and inherently carry risks and potential complications. We strongly believe that physicians should only perform procedures on patients if they can handle, treat, and correct the complications involved.

Certain "cosmetic" boards and "body part or procedure" societies usually translate into the following: ‘I'm not a plastic surgeon, but I want you to think I am." At the Lee Institute of Plastic Surgery, we consistently see patients with poor results, complications, or deformities created at the hands of non-plastic surgeons. These same patients all report that they never knew that their physician was not a fully trained plastic surgeon.
In our practice, a good majority of our patients are mothers who are trying to restore their bodies after pregnancy. There are also a fair number of patients who are dealing with the aftermath of weight loss. Regardless of your reasons, we are here to guide you through your journey every step of the way.
