Dear Dr. Hidalgo,

I want to take a moment to tell you how pleased I was with the outcome of my surgery. My breasts look so natural- no one would ever know that I’ve had breast augmentation.

Also, I want to mention to you what a professional staff you have from the ladies at the front desk to the nurses in the back. You are very fortunate to have such a top notch organization!

Thank you so much again Dr. Hidalgo for doing such a wonderful job. I’m so happy I chose you to be my surgeon.

Gratefully,
- SB

Dear Doctor Hidalgo,

You performed my face lift on Feb. 5th or 6th, 2012 and I want you to know that I wake up every morning with a smile on my face, gratitude, and a sense of well-being, thanks to you. I am so happy with the results. You are not only an excellent surgeon but also a mensch (as my mom would say, me too).

Thank you for being you.

Hopefully our last virtual national meeting. It’s such an odd experience to not see your audience!Nevertheless we on the panel had fun and learned from each other. These meetings are “energy out” efforts but it always comes back in camaraderie and pearls of knowledge gleaned from our colleagues.

Dr. James Stuzin (left) and Dr. Rod Rohrich @rod.R

Dr. James Stuzin (left) and Dr. Rod Rohrich @rod.Rohrich (right) run our most prestigious specialty journal together. Each has his own annual symposium that attracts both national and international attendees and both are past presidents of our number 1 aesthetic plastic surgery society. Both are thought leaders in their respective areas of expertise and define the concept of giving back. Lucky to be their friend and be called upon to help out with their endeavors! Dr. Alfredo Hoyos @alfredohoyosmd from Colombia is a body contouring genius and has raised that practice to a totally new level of refinement and sophistication.

My friend and colleague Dr. James Stuzin has organ

My friend and colleague Dr. James Stuzin has organized the first live plastic surgery meeting in over a year! It’s the 55th year of this great meeting and a true honor to be included on the faculty. It’s a joy to see everyone again and exchange cutting edge concepts in person! Lectures include this one on lower eyelid surgery today, combined breast augmentation and breast lift tomorrow, and a rhinoplasty panel Saturday. Great weather too!

Patient’s in their early seventies like this are

Patient’s in their early seventies like this are typically good candidates for surgery. Once under the skin the tissues look the same as younger patients except slightly thinner. The exact same tightening maneuvers of the deep layer SMAS, neck muscles, and skin are performed with no special variation in the older patient. Adjuvant procedures like nasal tip and lip lifts are more common in this group, as is skin resurfacing around the mouth. Although these procedures are long they are very well tolerated in this age group due to the superficial nature of the procedure and the limited scope of body surface area involved.

For the surgeons: Like secondary cases (which many of these are) a more limited SMAS dissection is often best but it’s still a full court press in the neck.

Facelift result at 7 weeks! Our lovely patient’

Facelift result at 7 weeks! Our lovely patient’s fantastic bones are better appreciated with the cheeks tightened. Notice the pleasing far side cheek silhouette on the 3/4 view, the cheekbone highlights and jaw contour on the side view, and the overall less tired appearance on the front view (eyelids done too). We very much appreciate her permission to share these images.

For the surgeons: Extended SMAS technique permits soft tissue augmentation just below the zygomatic arch, a much more reliable option than fat grafts.
