Plastic Surgery Procedures in Scottsdale

The following procedures are performed by Dr. Corey:

Breast surgery procedures

Changing the appearance and shape of your breasts is a deeply personal journey. Whether you seek to add volume, lift, or refine your breast contour, Dr. Corey offers specialized procedures designed to bring your vision to life, including: 

  • Breast Augmentation: Breast implants enhance and enlarge your breasts, giving just a bit more feminine curve to your figure. Dr. Corey offers the latest implant types from which to choose.
  • Breast Lift: Sagging, deflated breasts are common as a result of aging, weight loss, pregnancy, or genetics. As Dr. Corey tells his patients, “It’s really difficult for most women to have that one breast shape and size that holds throughout their lifetime.” A breast lift restores the position and shape of the breasts.
  • Breast Implant Revision and ReplacementThis is a part of Dr. Corey’s practice that has probably seen the biggest increase. Sometimes, breast implants need to be replaced due to break in the implant shell, or a change in the patients shape or size. At other times, there can be an issue with the capsule of scar tissue that forms around all breast implants. Dr. Corey has seen breast implant revision cases skyrocket in his practice, owing to the fact that there are so many women out there now with implants, and many doctors do not like treating complex breast revision cases.

Body procedures

Sometimes, diet and exercise just aren’t enough to get the body shape you want. On the other hand, you may have experienced changes to the shape of your body following pregnancy or major weight loss. Dr. Corey offers these procedures to tighten, smooth, and sculpt your physique:

  • Liposuction: Stubborn pockets of excess fat are removed with liposuction. Various areas can be treated, and while this is not a weight loss procedure, it can make a radical difference in how you feel and fit in your clothing.
  • Mommy MakeoverAfter pregnancy, your body may have held on to extra fat, and you may have sagging skin and breasts. A Mommy Makeover is a comprehensive approach to rejuvenating your body. It is probably the most dramatic procedure that Dr. Corey performs. You will look in the mirror and be amazed at the changes!
  • Tummy Tuck: Puffy belly skin and extra fat are removed during a tummy tuck, which leads to a smoother, tighter abdominal area. Abdominal muscles stretched and separated during pregnancy or just poor genetics can be re-tightened during this procedure as well. Dr. Corey relies on his training and experience in Brazil to approach this surgery aggressively and give you a dramatic change.

Body procedures by Dr. Corey are tailored to the male or female physique. Results look natural and are long-lasting, particularly if you feel even more motivated to pursue a healthy lifestyle and stable weight.

Additionally, Dr. Corey often has special offers, such as discounts on specific procedures. You can find current specials and detailed information on financing options on our financing and specials pages.

What Should I Expect During My Consultation?

During your consultation, Dr. Corey will discuss your goals and concerns, review your medical history, and evaluate your physical condition. He will then recommend the best procedures to achieve your desired outcomes and answer any questions you have about the process. You will also have the opportunity to view before-and-after photos of previous patients and learn about the recovery process.

How Long Is the Recovery Time?

Recovery time varies depending on the specific procedure and individual patient. Dr. Corey will provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions and a personalized recovery timeline to ensure optimal healing and results. Generally, patients can expect to return to normal activities within a few weeks, but full recovery may take several months. Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your progress.

Are There Any Risks Associated With Plastic Surgery?

All surgical procedures carry some level of risk. Common risks include infection, numbness, scarring, and the temporary side effects of anesthesia and medications , but these are rare and manageable with proper care. Dr. Corey will discuss all of the risks with you during your consultation so you are fully informed before making a decision. 

How Long Will My Results Last?

The longevity of your results depends on the procedure and your lifestyle. Many patients enjoy long-lasting results, especially when they maintain a healthy lifestyle. We will provide guidance on how to maintain and maximize your results, including tips on skincare, diet, and exercise. Regular follow-up visits can also help maintain your results over time.

Can I Combine Multiple Procedures?

Yes, many patients choose to combine multiple procedures to achieve their aesthetic goals more efficiently. Combining procedures can often reduce overall recovery time and provide more comprehensive results, such as pairing a tummy tuck with liposuction and a breast lift or breast augmentatin and liposuction. During your consultation, Dr. Corey will discuss which procedures can be safely combined and create a customized treatment plan for you. 

How Soon Can I Return to Work After Surgery?

The time needed to return to work depends on the specific procedure, your recovery progress, and the physical requirements of your job. For example, many patients can return to non-strenuous work within one to two weeks after a breast augmentation, while more extensive procedures like a tummy tuck may require several weeks. Dr. Corey will provide you with guidelines on when you can safely resume work and other daily activities. 

What Should I Do to Prepare for Surgery?

Preparing for surgery involves following specific guidelines provided by Dr. Corey, which may include pre-operative tests, medications, and lifestyle adjustments. He will provide you with comprehensive instructions to prepare you for your procedure. This may include stopping certain medications such as ibuprofen, aspirin and the now popular semi-glutides, arranging for transportation and post-operative care, and stopping smoking to promote better healing.
