- Medical Weight LossEach plastic surgeon has their own decisive factor in determining the requirements for an abdominal panniculectomy. It is usually recommended that you wait at least one full year after weight loss surgery, and your weight loss has been stable for at least six months. By doing this, you are giving your body a chance to stabilize, reducing your blood pressure, stress on your heart, and your blood sugar if you are diabetic. Pannus removal should take place only when your body is prepared.
- Pediatric CareOn the other hand, any doctor with any type of medical training may take brief courses in areas such as facial rejuvenation, liposuction, rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, or any other procedure and become a cosmetic surgeon. This means doctors from any specialty, such as gynecology, dermatology, or even pediatrics, can take a few courses and be allowed to call themselves cosmetic surgeons. They may often be in their mid-twenties.

- Gynecology
- PregnancyA mommy makeover is a suite of plastic surgeries designed to deal with the unwanted aftereffects of pregnancy and childbirth. Mommy makeovers typically include tummy tucks, and liposuction for a flatter, tighter abdominal area, as well as breast augmentations and lifts in many cases. Our plastic surgeons know that moms deserve the very best and they deliver!
- Labor and DeliveryIf you are considering the possibility of having one or more surgeries to remove some of the less desirable after effects of childbirth, then it’s only natural to wonder about mommy makeover cost. Beverly Hills Physicians understands that, for most people, finances are going to be a concern as these procedures are almost never covered by insurance. At the same time, there’s no reason that money should be an obstacle to obtaining the procedures you need and deserve.
- Depression
- Mental HealthCandidates for transgender breast augmentation should be in generally good health. Before surgery, patients should expect to undergo both a physical exam and a mental health evaluation. Candidates must be at least 18-years-old and also have been undergoing hormone therapy for at least 12 months before their surgery. Candidates will also need to obtain a letter of support from a mental health professional qualified in handling transgender issues. Their advocacy means that the candidate meets the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) criteria for undergoing such a procedure.
- Anxiety
- UltrasoundRichard Hodnett, M.D., F.A.C.S. and Beverly Hills Physicians are proud to offer Aspen Ultrasound Treatment, a proprietary leading edge solution for preventing and treating capsular contracture following a breast augmentation. To help you understand the treatment and how it works, below are answers to the most important questions around this highly effective treatment.
- MRIWhile complications are rare for either option, an MRI is required to determine if a silicone implant has burst while a defective saline implant is usually apparent from its deflated-tire look. Since the saline solution is primarily sterilized water, it is harmlessly reabsorbed by the body and easily replaced in a follow-up visit. A silicone rupture, though, can be very difficult to notice without an MRI. Fortunately, today’s silicone implants are designed to be especially resistant to rupturing.
- General SurgeryDuring medical school, they must complete a minimum of three years – and often as many as four more years – of general surgery training. They must also pass intensive yearly examinations. Next, an aspiring plastic surgeon must finish two to three years of plastic surgery training. For many, this is in addition to special training as part of fellowships. This may add up to an additional decade of work.
- Ear SurgeryIf you are considering an ear surgery for you or your child, your next move is scheduling an initial consultation with Beverly Hills Physicians plastic surgeons. To get started, contact us at the phone number above or reach out electronically to request a consultation. For your convenience, our offices are located throughout the Greater Los Angeles Area, including Beverly Hills, Encino, Thousand Oaks, Valencia, Pasadena, and Oxnard.
- Reconstructive SurgeryBreast cancer reconstruction has never been more effective. That’s because, while breast cancer remains a very common serious illness afflicting hundreds of thousands of women each year, doctors are learning more each year about the best ways to help patients recover – both in terms of their illness and their life going forward. The Susan G. Komen Foundation notes that breast cancer deaths have declined by nearly 40 percent since the 1980s, and the reason is improved treatments, including more sophisticated mastectomies and more modest lumpectomies. Beverly Hills Physicians would like you to know that great progress has also been made in terms of reconstructive surgery.
- Botox“All I can say is that I love Botox! I’m 32 years old and I received Botox for the first time. I would highly recommend Dr.Kincaid if you’re thinking of being wrinkle free:) My experience was painless and very little to no bruising at all. I’m definitely going back every 4-6 months.”
- Eyelid SurgeryA procedure called double eyelid surgery is especially popular with people of East Asian ancestry who wish to add a crease to their eyelids and, at times, remove some tissue. Often, the result is that eyes also appear somewhat larger but also generally more attractive.
- LiposuctionYour specific experience of hand rejuvenation in Los Angeles may be determined by a variety of factors, though, in many cases, injections may be used to transfer fat into the hands. When performing a fat transfer, our doctors will use fat that has been harvested from the patient’s elsewhere on the body using liposuction. By using the patient’s own fat during our hand rejuvenation treatments, we almost completely eliminate the chance of the body rejecting the injection into the back of the hand.
- Breast AugmentationBreast augmentation is a part of popular culture and that means there not everything people believe about them is true. Here’s the truth behind some rumors you might have heard.
- Breast ReductionIf you’re one of the many women who are uncomfortable with the large side of their bust, then breast reduction cost is definitely going to be on your mind. Here at Beverly Hills Physicians, we know that money is a finite resource for all of us and something we all need to be concerned about, no matter how much we may want a procedure.

- RhinoplastyRhinoplasty can alter the shape and size of the nose to flatter the patient’s facial appearance. Refined and improved over many decades, the venerable procedure we often call a nose job may be performed by a plastic surgeon for strictly cosmetic reasons but are also often part of procedures aimed at correcting deviated septums and other respiratory issues.
- Breast ReconstructionWhen problems with breast issues arise following surgery or due to aging or other factors, breast reconstruction procedures are typically the solution.
- Plastic SurgeryIn the past few years, plastic surgery has seen a large boom in popularity thanks to advances in medical technology and technique, allowing for safer, more accurate procedures. Plastic surgery offers patients the chance to feel more comfortable in their own skin, raising their confidence and self-esteem to better tackle the trials and tribulations of the everyday.
- Thigh LiftThe thigh lift is an outpatient procedure that requires minimal anesthesia. Recovery usually takes between one and two weeks before painless and unrestricted movement returns. Incisions are usually hidden in the crease of the groin, but adequate rest is necessary to speed recovery and decrease scarring.
- Face LiftIf you’re thinking about a facelift, but are worried about facelift cost, we get it. Beverly Hills Physicians understands that money is something we all have to be concerned about. Even so, it’s hard to say with certainty how much a procedure might cost.
- Neck LiftA face and neck lift raises the cheek pads, corrects the jowls, and removes the loose and sagging skin from the neck, face, and around the eyes.
- BlepharoplastyPeople get blepharoplasty for all kinds of reasons. Often, it’s to look younger or more attractive by getting rid of drooping eyelids and dark circles underneath the eyes. Sometimes, people may prefer a differently shaped eyelid. And, in some cases, drooping can be so pronounced that it actually can harm our peripheral vision. Whatever the reason, the highly experienced and skilled plastic surgeons of Beverly Hills Physician can take care of you and your lids – and we have ways of making it affordable to people on a budget.
- AbdominoplastyMen and women from all walks of life have been delighted by the results of their tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) procedure for removing excess skin and fatty tissue from their midsection. However, absolutely no one is delighted with the small plastic drains that are usually needed following a procedure; patients often complain that they are uncomfortable and inconvenient. Fortunately, a new FDA approved product known as TissuGlu, a synthetic surgical adhesive used internally, offers the chance for patients to enjoy a speedier and more rapid recovery – without drains.
- Body LiftOf course, a thigh lift is just one type of lift procedure, as loose skin can accumulate on most body parts. An arm lift, for example, is an increasingly popular procedure for people looking for attractively toned arms. For people who may have lost a truly large amount of weight all over their body, a full body lift may be the best solution.
- Breast SurgeryTransgender breast augmentation, also referred to as male-to-female top surgery or feminizing breast surgery, is an operation meant to increase breast size and improve overall chest shape for transgender women. This may include breast implants, fat transfer, or a combination of both types of procedures.
- OtoplastyIn the initial meeting, your surgeon will evaluate the prospective patient’s condition. The physician will take a close look at the overall situation to make sure the patient is an appropriate candidate for a procedure, and will then suggest a course of action. If a procedure is indicated, the physician will provide specific instructions on how to prepare for the surgery.
- Body ContouringA tummy tuck revision is intended to correct or improve on a previous body contouring procedure where the results are disappointing or problematic. Beverly Hills Physicians’ outstanding team of plastic surgeons understands the heartache that an unsuccessful procedure can bring. We are here to do whatever we can to correct issues and leave our patients looking and feeling their best.
- GynecomastiaGynecomastia describes a swelling of the glandular tissue in the breasts of men and boys. This causes their breasts to appear larger and similar to a woman’s breasts. Gynecomastia can affect one or both breasts, in some cases unevenly. While this disorder can make finding and wearing clothes difficult, in more serious cases, it can cause pain due to added tenderness and sensitivity. Above all else, having gynecomastia can make individuals feel embarrassed and significantly reduce their self-esteem.

- Bariatric SurgeryLosing substantial amounts of weight or maintaining your weight following one or more pregnancies can mean a great deal of time and effort – whether that was getting bariatric surgery and permanently changing your lifestyle or staying on top of your diet and exercise regimen after having one or more children. When your reward for this very hard work involves large folds of flabby and sometimes uncomfortable skin and fat, it can be downright depressing. It’s easy to feel let down when you realize that no amount of exercise or low-calorie dieting can get rid of your left-over flab. A tummy tuck is currently the only way to reverse this frustrating situation.
