Patients love the internal mesh bra breast augmentation – and here’s why:
The patient featured in this video needed a breast lift and a larger silicone implant exchange (800cc). To ensure long-lasting support and a lifted appearance, Dr. Rodriguez used DuraSorb®, a bioabsorbable surgical mesh that acts like an internal mesh bra, providing temporary structural support during the healing process.
The result?
High, beautifully positioned implants with better projection, higher lift, and only a minimal, well-hidden scar around the areola!
In this video Dr. Rodriguez delves into the key differences between regular and extended tummy tuck scar, illustrating his points with real patient before and after photos to help guide you in choosing the right procedure for your desired goals.
This African American lip lift patient requested the remaining distance between the bottom of the nose and the top of the upper lip to be 8mm, shorter than the average 12 to 15 mm, but it totally works for her. See her progression from surgery day pre-op markings through her 1-week and 2-week post-op visits.
The Crescent mastopexy is a type of Breast lift that is perfect for situations where only a small lift is needed. I use it exclusively for small breast lifts because of the well-disguised scar! It works especially great for women who have breastfed and for patients with mild asymmetry issues.
Fat grafting is a great technique for natural breast augmentation (using your fat tissue as opposed to using silicone or saline breast implants). This patient (approximately 5’7″ and 130 lbs) is very happy with her results.

This patient came to me concerned about her heavy eyelids infringing on her eyelashes. While she was thinking of an eyelid lift, she ended up choosing an endoscopic browlift, which sometimes is a better option to rejuvenate and refresh the eye area. Learn more about them here. She’s also had a lip lift to address her upper lip getting “thinner” with age. The results are a very marked change in her appearance and she’s happy with the results!

I have trained in many wonderful places including Bellevue Hospital in New York, Charity Hospital in New Orleans with Tulane University, the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, the University of Wisconsin… All great places, but…
When patients come in talking about a Facelift, they generally want to look younger and point out the things that they don’t like about their faces… but when you stretch your facial skin back, it results in a *pulled* look, with the corners of the mouth also stretching back.
