Once again, the summer solstice has been overtaken by the autumn equinox, a reminder that our bodies continue to change and age.

It also means that Halloween is around the corner and we should get ready for that. For some, Halloween is a big party that they look forward to all year long. That can include not merely dressing up as and looking like favorite actors or cartoon characters; it also means going all out to reproduce those celebrities for a lifelong desired look.

Do you seek maximized sex appeal and confidence from an ultra-curvaceous shape like those of Elvira and Marilyn Monroe or the just-right muscularly fit look like that of Channing Tatum?

As a board-certified Newport Beach Plastic Surgeon, I have listened to, assessed, and decided with many women and men on the right plans to meet their needs and budgets.

The issue is usually a longing to correct a lack of balance. Are your breasts smaller than or much larger than your waist and hips? Is your waist much larger than it should be? You may wish to balance your body’s ratios through liposuction or augmentation in a choice of goals and methods. To produce the feminine hourglass or the masculine fit figure that will match your favorite celebrity, the best plan for you likely will involve any of the following.

1.  Liposuction:  Your own fat/tissue can be liposuctioned from an area with fat to spare.

Usually hips, waist, abdomen

thighs, flanks

neck, upper arms, bra line

breasts (breast reduction)

WHAT TO DO WITH THAT FAT?  IT IS OFTEN INJECTED INTO A DEFICIENT AREA OF THE BODY AND/OR THE FACE.  USING YOUR OWN FAT/TISSUE FOR AUGMENTATION IS SAFE AND HIGHLY DESIRABLE.

2.   Augmentation:  The following areas are most frequently augmented to restore/increase size.

Breasts:  For years, breast augmentation surgery has been the most-popular breast surgery in Orange County for women. Augmentation or implant options are saline or silicone gel (popular), shaped or round, textured or smooth.

Buttocks:  Orange County Brazilian Butt Lift for women and men: The deficient area is augmented (and then contoured) by injecting your liposuctioned fat, placing implants (may be your only option if you lack enough fat), or combining those two.

Cheeks and Lips:  Facial features may need quick, often-painless treatments to correct lacking definition and volume caused by aging and more. Safe, strategically-placed injections for women and men such as your own liposuctioned fat, Botox, or dermal fillers can augment, tighten, and/or smooth cheeks, lips, chin, eyes, and more.

Easily financed liposuction and augmentation can make body parts and facial features proportionate and younger looking through one procedure or as part of a Mommy Makeover. Please consult our Breast Augmentation, Brazilian Butt Lift, Facial Rejuvenation and Injectables, and Financing Options pages to learn how easily you can achieve your dream.
