Advances in cosmetic surgery offer many benefits to patients…each year, it seems there are more and more options, surgical and non-surgical, for looking younger and healthier. However, not all procedures are being performed by qualified surgeons in the proper environment. Liposuction, for example, is frequently being performed in med spas across the country with disastrous…

I’ve thought a lot in the past week about what to say about my actual surgical experience. I could go on and on for days talking about menial things that meant a lot to me, or I could sum it up in one sentence: “It went perfectly.” I’ll try to find a happy medium. The…

I’m not a particularly organized person, but I generally have some sort of plan. And while the plan may change a bit along the way, I can usually keep things on track fairly well as long as I show a little leniency for minor setbacks. But sometimes, all of the careful planning in the world…

After waiting for years to have her procedure (and three kids later), Michelle is finally through and on the road to recovery. While her first couple of nights were a little rough (pain medication made her groggy, and she didn’t want to do much), every day got a little better after that. She got up,…

Here at St. Louis Cosmetic Surgery, we notice that trends in plastic surgery often come and go, but one trend in particular has a lot of women (quietly) asking the question: can I change how I look down there?

Any woman who’s ever been pregnant knows what it feels like: it’s midnight and you’re exhausted, but you just can’t stop cleaning the house, making shopping lists, and generally trying to organize your life before chaos arrives in the form of a tiny, helpless baby. It’s called nesting, and preparing for surgery is actually pretty…

One of the most exciting parts of the entire mommy makeover process is the giddy anticipation before surgery. About a week before surgery, each patient goes through a “pre-op” appointment with the nurse and the surgeon, to go over all of the details of the procedure.
