The hardest part of a patient’s Plastic Surgery journey is often finding the right Plastic Surgeon. A great Plastic Surgeon has the education, training and experience to sustain his medical skill, as well as the aesthetic, artistic eye for detail that enhancing, reconstructing and otherwise altering the human body requires.

It can be hard to know if the Plastic Surgeon you are considering shares your vision for beauty. One of the easiest ways to determine this, however, is by viewing your prospective Plastic Surgeon’s before and after photo gallery. This gallery showcases some of a Plastic Surgeon’s previous patients who’ve undergone all or some of the procedures they offer. By viewing the photo gallery, you can determine if you would be happy with the results you see.

You’ll need to take into account, however, that every patient comes in with a different set of needs, goals and challenges- which are likely different from your own. Still, if you feel you would be happy with a majority of the outcomes achieved, that may be a good sign that that Plastic Surgeon may be able to achieve the results you seek.

Your next step is setting up your consultation with that Plastic Surgeon. We would like to invite you to view our Montana Plastic Surgery Before and After Photo Gallery! If you like the results you see, contact our office and schedule your consultation.

Your splint or bandage will be removed anywhere from one to two weeks after the procedure and you can often return to work within days of the procedure.

??Women considering a breast reduction surgery are often faced with people who don’t understand their desire to do so. Many people do not realize the pain and stress that large breasts can put on the back, neck and shoulders. Large, overbearing breasts can make exercise extremely painful and uncomfortable. Many women with large breasts dread shopping as their breasts are often out of proportion with the rest of their body and any clothes that do fit may cause them to appear much heavier than they actually are. There are also often time emotional strains connected to having large breasts. Whatever the reason, Dr. Ploplys has been able to help countless women alleviate these issues through Great Falls Breast Reduction Surgery.

A Breast Reduction procedure is one to reduce the size of the breasts. This is usually done by making an incision around the areola and excess skin and breast tissue is removed.

The remaining skin will be closed around the areola and the resulting breasts are natural, smaller, lighter, and more firm. Many women who undergo Breast Reduction surgery often report an increase in confidence and comfort.

Montana Plastics – Abdominoplasty

jen — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:30:28 +0000

Almost everyone who undergoes a significant, dramatic weight loss is going to have some amount of excess, sagging skin left over. Excess, sagging skin around the abdomen is also common in women who have had multiple pregnancies. It can be an emotionally traumatizing thing to deal with and can destroy confidence, as well as hinder fashion choices. People who are in good health and have been at a stable, healthy weight for at least 6 months, and who have excess skin around the abdomen are generally good candidates for Abdominoplasty.

Abdominoplasty is a procedure to remove the excess skin around the abdomen. There are several varying types of Abdominoplasty, or Tummy Tuck, procedures depending on the amount of work that needs to be done. One thing to keep in mind when considering an Abdominoplasty procedure is that the scar from this surgery will be permanent, but most plastic surgeons work hard to ensure that it will be easily hidden by most undergarments or swim wear.

Brachioplasty – Great Falls

jen — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 02:36:04 +0000

We are all born naturally predisposed as to where we will gain and hang on to weight. For some of us it’s our abdomen, love-handles, backside or thighs, and for some, it’s the arms. Unfortunately, it’s not always limited to just one area either! Some of us, no matter how many curls we accomplish at the gym will not be able to lose the amount of weight desired to get the definition desired. That said, people who have lost a significant amount of weight, either through diet and exercise or gastric bypass, are often left with sagging excess skin around their arms and other areas as well.

Brachioplasty, also known as an Arm Lift, is one solution available to treat these issues. To be considered an ideal candidate for this procedure, it’s preferred that you’ve been at a stable weight (not considered obese) for the past several months, do not smoke, are in good health and have realistic expectations about the procedure- realize that you aren’t likely to come out of the procedure with a supermodel or body builder’s biceps! What you can expect to get out of it, however, an improved, tighter version of your own.

Liposuction: Not A Weight Loss Solution

jen — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 20:34:47 +0000

Liposuction is a procedure which vacuums out fat via a long, skinny tube that is inserted in tiny incisions in a specific area of your body which may resistant to traditional means of weight loss. Liposuction, however, is not a weight loss treatment, rather it is a procedure to improve the contour of a specific area of fat. Liposuction can be performed on almost any area of the body from the abdomen to the thighs, backside, arms, face and neck.

Not all prospective patients are ideal candidates. As with any type of surgery it is advised you be in good health and a non-smoker. You should have realistic expectations for your results.

Wee believe that results will speak for themselves. As you may have heard, “A picture is worth a thousand words,” and we often find that cliche to be the truth. Most patients first judgments of a plastic surgeon are based not only on their training and accreditation, but on the results seen in their previous patients.

Finding an example of a prior patient who had a similar issue as the one you are struggling with and being able to see their results, either good or bad, can be very powerful. It is recommended that if you find a result you are especially happy with and desire a similar outcome, that you print off the picture to bring it in to your consultation. Visual aides are always a good idea to ensure proper clarity in communicating what you want with your doctor.
