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.

This simple, smaller scale drawing came along much more quickly than usual. Rendering is actually the easy part, finding an image with a message is the challenge. This one was a random internet find whereas most are more personal. Expand for detail. On to the next!

Creativity in plastic surgery extends to improving

Creativity in plastic surgery extends to improving our surgical instruments. It all starts with curiosity, stepping back to critically examine our existing routine, and then imagining something better. Designing and perfecting the new prototype instrument is the fun part! The rewarding aspect is the ripple effect it has throughout the practicing community, improving everyone’s efforts.

Thank you to my partners at ASSI Surgical Instruments!@assi_accurate_surgical

For the surgeons: Start with your conventional retractor then switch to this one half way down. Exposure at the base of the neck both centrally and laterally is greatly improved. Medialmost SMAS dissection is also better visualized.

Our delightful young patient accomplished a miracl

Our delightful young patient accomplished a miracle with her weight loss. These cases are extremely challenging to remove the right amount of skin and then fill it with the optimal implant size. That’s the easy part! The anchor pattern breast lift type used for these extreme cases allows complete control of three dimensional breast shape. The more you know and the better you see the longer the process takes because you appreciate and can create all of the fine contour nuances in the different parts of the breast that together compose ideal overall shape. Properly positioned areolas of the right diameter made perfectly round completes the picture. 6.5 hours in this case!

For the surgeons: sizers are critical mandrels for designing and and later refining skin resection patterns. There is one optimal combination of implant diameter, projection, and volume that becomes apparent during the process so best not to commit beforehand.

While seemingly simple conceptually, plastic surge

While seemingly simple conceptually, plastic surgeons agree that rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging (and humbling) procedures that we do. Given that that we are typically creating a 50 year result for our young patients we strive to be perfect every time. It is such an honor to be entrusted with this responsibility.

This large scale charcoal pencil drawing took a year of evenings and weekends to complete! It is based on an old family photo and the detail is revealed by both expanding the image and swiping through the close ups that follow. Drawing is a unique form of meditation and it gives you a permanent record of the time spent!
