A Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in Scottsdale, AZ
Buttock Enhancement
Hot Topics: Composite Body Contouring.
Aug 10th
Scottsdale – Composite Body Contouring is a relatively new topic in plastic surgery. So, what is it?
A composite body contouring procedure is a combination plastic surgery operation. The Composite includes a tummy tuck, liposuction of the body, and fat injections to the buttocks. In many cases, the liposuction can be circumferential and may include lipo of the upper and lower back, love handles and extremities.
A special technique is used to perform the tummy tuck which preserves the oxygen supply to the skin and can reduce the risks of wound healing complications. Restoration of buttock contour with fat transfer can be used to give patients a better shape to the buttocks. The outer thighs are another popular location for fat grafting.
It is very important to provide the greatest amount of safety for our patients when performing Composite Body Contouring and the key to perform this cosmetic surgery operation only in a surgical facility that can admit patients for recovery and observation for at least 24 hours after surgery. I use a specialty surgery hospital that is specifically designed to meet the needs of cosmetic plastic surgery patients.
Also known as, “the composite”, this operation is a variation of the “mommy makeover” concept of combining multiple procedures to reverse the changes associated with pregnancy. Published studies demonstrate that the combination of cosmetic breast surgery and tummy tuck is safe when performed in an appropriate environment by qualified physicians. That combination of surgery is the classic “mommy makeover” duo I have performed since 2003.
On the other hand, “the composite” typically excludes breast surgery, but targets different areas that can affect women either post-pregnancy or with weight gain or loss, including the tummy, back, thighs and buttocks. Before and after photos can be found on our main website.
Fat Injections versus Buttock Implants.
Jul 27th
Scottsdale -There are two different ways to enlarge your buttocks:
1) Brazilian Butt Lift: Fat injections or fat transfer to the butt.
2) Butt Implants: Insertion of silicone implants.
Dr. Guerra prefers buttock fat grafting for most patients. He will recommend butt implants over the brazilian butt lift when patients are really thin and have no body fat stored in their body. If you have enough donor fat, Dr. Guerra prefers to enhance your gluteals using fat injections – a.k.a. – the brazilian butt lift.
An additional benefit of fat injection is the loss of fat pockets elsewhere. Not only does fat harvest result in a more shapely buttock, but the areas of undesired fat receive liposuction and appear leaner with surgery, giving your profile a healthier appearance. Examples of before and after photos can be seen in our photo gallery. Fat grafting generally results in the most natural and sensual look for the buttock area. Fat transfer generally has a lower risk of infection compared to the butt implant procedure. He only recommends silicone buttock implants if you are tiny and have no fat in your tummy or flank area.

Mommy Makeover Seminar: Topics.
Apr 18th
Scottsdale – This week on Wednesday April 21, 2010 at our plastic surgery center in north Scottsdale, we are holding our first Scottsdale Mommy Makeover seminar. Many mommies have called to reserve a spot and to ask about the topics for the evening. We encourage those interested to call or RSVP online as soon as possible, as seating is limited and our reservations are almost filled.
During the evening, we are going to speak about the plastic surgery procedures which can help a “mommy” restore the body they had before pregnancy. We are going to focus on the major areas affected by childbearing including the breast plastic surgery, tummy tucks and the buttocks area with a Scottsdale Brazilian Butt Lift. Dr. Aldo Guerra will also mention, for those interested in facial surgery, some facts about a Scottsdale facelift and eyelid lift surgery.
The evening will begin with a discussion about breast surgery. The first topic will highlight breast augmentation surgery, including silicone breast implants compared to saline breast implants, breast surgery incisions and recovery. Dr. Guerra will demonstrate before and after photos of breast augmentation. Participants will have the opportunity to handle silicone and saline breast implants, and ask plenty of questions about cosmetic surgery of the breasts.
The discussion about breast surgery, will include the popular techniques used for breast lift and breast reduction. Participants will be able to see before and after photos of various breast lift patterns, including the areola breast lift, the vertical or lollipop breast lift and the anchor or wise pattern breast lift pattern. Dr. Guerra will also discuss the difference between breast lift surgery with and without breast implants. As a primer, participants to the mommy makeover seminar can look to our dedicated Scottsdale breast surgery website.
Next, we will focus on the abdominal area. The most popular plastic surgery procedure after childbirth in most mommy makeovers is the tummy tuck. In fact, the tummy tuck is the central focus of any mommy makeover, and allows the scottsdale plastic surgeon to remove the unwanted signs of pregnancy, most effectively. Dr. Guerra will discuss the options available with tummy tuck, including, the mini tummy tuck, the extended tummy tuck, tummy tuck combined with liposuction, and tummy tuck and body lift options after pregnancy and major weight loss.
Many moms will be really happy to hear about what can be done to reduce the unwanted fat pads that just don’t seem to go away after pregnancy. The typical mom, after pregnancy, sees more fat in the hips and thighs, including the saddlebags area. Some moms can have lipo to improve the shape of the tummy, as long as there is no loose skin or significant stretchmarks. Participants to the mommy makeover seminar will hear about using the tumescent technique for liposuction, expected recovery, and view before and after photos of liposuction.
An area that is becoming ever more popular for many moms is the buttocks. Many moms talk about the “pregnancy butt”, that can sag and loose its attractive round shape. There is an opportunity for a mommy to regain the butt shape they used to have before the babies. The options discussed at the seminar will include the Brazilian butt lift technique, traditional buttock lifts ,and buttock implants. Participants can learn about how liposuction and fat grafting can be combined in a single operation to improve the appearance of the butt and back, while creating an altogether smaller waistline.
Towards the end of the evening, we will discuss cosmetic surgery of the face and eyelids. Nonsurgical options for facial rejuvenation, such as, Scottsdale Botox injections and dermal fillers, will be discussed that this time. Additional information is available on-line for those who have interest in learning more about the 4 options for Scottsdale mommy makeovers offered at the AB Guerra Plastic Surgery Center. Our address is AB Guerra Plastic Surgery Center, 8765 E. Bell Road, Suite 104, Scottsdale, AZ.
The seminar is being held from 6 to 7:30 PM.

Type 4 Mommy Makeover: On the Cutting Edge.
Mar 15th
Brazilian Butt Lift in Scottsdale, Arizona
Scottsdale – The Brazilians have been doing this for a while. In the U.S., the combined plastic surgery mommy makeover procedure tummy tuck and Brazilian butt lift is just starting to become popular. America is the land of the makeover and I have no doubt that soon enough this mommy makeover combination of procedures will be performed all over the country.
I have a fair amount of experience with these operations and I find these to be very safe, as long as they are performed by a board certified plastic surgeon, in an accredited facility, and with proper anesthesia. I perform a Scottsdale mommy makeover with the Brazilian butt lift as an option for patients.
The procedure begins with liposuction Scottsdale to obtain the fat for buttock injection. The best places to harvest fat are always the tummy and inner thighs. All the tummy liposuction is performed and then the tummy tuck is completed. The patient is turned on the plastic surgery operating table with the buttock up and the fat is injected.
The fat injection volume, I have placed have varied from 400 cc to 1400 cc. The limiting factor is always the volume of fat the patient can donate. I have asked many patients to gain weight before their surgery in order to make sure they have enough fat to accomplish their desired results.
