Gynecomastia is a condition suffered by many men and boys. It is an excess of fatty tissue in the male breast, and it can be the source of a lot of embarrassment and loss in body confidence.  At Rodeo Surgical Art, Dr. Mashhadian has helped many male patients reduce their breast size and regain their good self-image. Gynecomastia can occur for several reasons. Excess breast fat and tissue can be the result of too much estrogen (a female hormone) in the system. It can also be caused by overusing drugs or prescription medications. During your consultation, we will discuss the possible reasons for your gynecomastia and talk about how the breast reduction procedure can reshape your body and give you the more masculine contours you want.

One of the most common questions we get from patients who are interested in enhancing their figure with a tummy tuck is what the recovery will be like. During your consultation with Beverly Hills cosmetic surgeon Dr. David Mashhadian, you will discuss the details of your procedure and recovery, but in general you can plan for: Getting plenty of rest. This doesn’t mean laying around all day. You should still walk around your house to get the blood flowing during your initial recovery, but you want to focus on giving your body time to heal and avoiding all strenuous activities. Drinking plenty of fluids. Staying hydrating aids your body’s natural healing process. Taking time off. You will want to refrain from work for one to two weeks. During this time you will experience swelling and bruising and will need to wear your compression garment and practice plenty of self care.  Easing back into physical activity. You can gradually incorporate mild exercise into your routine after any drains have been removed. Dr. Mashhadian will clear you for these activities when it is time.

A buttock lift is a body contouring procedure that can restore the youthful contours of your bottom so that you can gain the confidence you want in your beautiful, curvaceous body. Many of our Beverly Hills patients who have lost a significant amount of weight enjoy the benefits that the buttocks lift provides, including: Eliminating the appearance of sagging skin and excess tissue Repositioning the fatty tissue for the optimal round derriere Reshaping the contours of your buttocks to fit naturally with your body Fitting and looking better in the clothes that now flatter your figure A buttocks lift can help you truly enjoy and celebrate the beauty of your curving feminine figure.

A mommy makeover is a combination of body contouring and breast procedures that can help women restore their bodies following pregnancy and nursing. This plastic surgery option is customized for each patient and based on the unique ways motherhood has changed various aspects of your body. During your plastic surgery consultation with Beverly Hills surgeon Dr. David Mashhadian, we can assess your entire figure, discuss your areas of concern, and tailor your mommy makeover to help you reclaim your pre-pregnancy body. A mommy makeover generally includes plastic surgery options such as: Liposuction Breast augmentation Breast lift Tummy tuck Liposuction is a versatile procedure that is valuable to almost every mommy makeover patient because it can remove those stubborn deposits of fat your body stores during pregnancy. These fat deposits are often impervious to diet and exercise, requiring a procedure such as liposuction to fully restore your body to its natural form. Areas such as your legs, hips, abdomen, buttocks, back, arms, neck, and face, are all treatable with liposuction, making it an ideal complement to nearly every mommy makeover procedure.

During pregnancy, your breasts undergo many changes. Generally within the first or second trimester, your breasts will begin to get larger. They may also become sore or tender at this point. By the third month of pregnancy, your breasts will begin producing colostrum, which may even begin to leak a bit as you draw closer to the birth of your child. Women with breast implants undergo the exact same changes as women without them, and many of those women are just as satisfied with their breast implant results as they were before pregnancy. However, some women choose to have revision surgery to correct imperfections that occur due to childbearing and some women wait until they are finished having children before choosing to have their breasts enhanced. What’s Right for You? Should you wait to have breast augmentation until you are finished having children? This is a very personal decision that depends on several factors. If you are unhappy with your appearance and are considering enhancement, Dr. Mashhadian can help you understand your options and determine what is best for your body.

One of the most beneficial things about liposuction is its ability to treat a number of areas on the body. Beverly Hills liposuction surgeon Dr. David Mashhadian can use this technique to remove stubborn deposits of fat from: Legs – ankles, calves, knees, and thighs Lower body – buttock, hips, and waist Mid body – abdomen, flanks, back, and arms Upper body – chest, neck, and face In fact, if you have an area with excess fat that refuses to respond to diet and exercise, chances are it can be treated with one of the liposuction techniques we offer. Different Techniques for Different Body Parts Fat can be different depending on where it accumulates. In addition, some parts of the body respond better to certain liposuction techniques or require a delicate touch such as that provided by our VASER liposuction machine. We work with each patient on an individual level. When you come to our Beverly Hills office for your liposuction consultation, we will assess your entire frame and identify all of your problem areas. From there, we can customize your liposuction treatment to ideally contour your body and help you reach your aesthetic goals.

At Rodeo Surgical Art, we want each of our Beverly Hills patients to be completely satisfied with their breast surgery results. The first step in achieving your desired beauty goals is to choose the procedure that will give you the natural-looking results you want. One of the most common choices our patients have to make is between a breast augmentation and a breast lift. Both will greatly improve the look and feel of your breasts, but the procedures address different concerns. A breast augmentation is usually appropriate if you: Want larger breasts Have no or only mild sagging Are unhappy with the shape of your breasts On the other hand, we might recommend a breast lift if you: Are basically satisfied with the size of your breasts Have more significant sagging issues Are unhappy with the size, shape or appearance of your nipples and areolas In some circumstances, it is appropriate to combine a breast lift with a breast augmentation. Both procedures are often utilized as part of a mommy makeover. We will help you explore your options and choose the procedure that is right for you.

A firm, tight, attractive behind is important to all women, including our Beverly Hills patients. For those who are dissatisfied with the current state of their buttocks, a buttock augmentation might be an appropriate body contouring procedure. A traditional buttock lift will remove excess skin from the upper part of the buttocks and lift the skin, fat and muscle. The end results are quite attractive, and the lift is enough for many patients to achieve their aesthetic goals. However, some patients also prefer to undergo buttock augmentation, during which Dr. Mashhadian will remove and reposition tissue and fat to achieve the shape and look you desire.

Our Beverly Hills patients who wish to re-shape and re-size their noses have seen fantastic results with the rhinoplasty procedure, but a common concern is how much pain and bruising they can expect following their procedure. A rhinoplasty does produce some bruising, swelling and discomfort, though most patients do not report much pain. Dr. Mashhadian will prescribe medication you can take for the discomfort. The swelling and bruising will gradually fade during your recovery. That process can take anywhere from a few days to a couple weeks. Most patients find that the bruising and swelling subsides fairly soon after their rhinoplasty. During your consultation we will be happy to answer all of your questions and address your concerns about the procedure. We will also explain exactly what you can expect during your recovery from rhinoplasty and give you a timeline of the recovery process.

Many of our Beverly Hills patients have heard the usual urban myths about cosmetic surgery. At Rodeo Surgical Art, we want you to be well-informed about your procedures and put your mind at ease when you are selecting the cosmetic surgeries that will make you look and feel the best in your body. Common myths include: Cosmetic surgery is risky: Every surgical procedure has some risk; that’s just the nature of surgery. However, Dr. David Mashhadian has years of experience in all of our procedures. Our priority is your comfort and safety. Cosmetic surgery is prohibitively expensive: Your beauty and confidence cannot be defined by a price. Our convenient financing options allow you to afford the procedures you want. Plastic surgery is just for women: The fact is men benefit from cosmetic surgery as much as women. Liposuction is particularly helpful for men who want to eliminate stubborn deposits of fat. And gynecomastia can help you achieve the more masculine look you want.
