Dr. Laurie Casas talks about Breast Reduction in Cosmopolitan Magazine due out in March 2012.
The article, Undergoing A Breast Reduction, covers what to expect from the procedure and how much tissue is typically removed.
“How much fat and tissue is taken out depends on a woman’s body type and how much of a reduction she wants, but it’s usually from half a pound to 4 pounds per breast,” says Dr. Casas

Question:To begin, I’m in my early twenties. At this point I don’t realistically need surgical procedures. I’m very well disciplined in no smoking, sleeping on my back, using moisturizer, sun screen and eye cream, 8 glasses of water a day and such. Are their any suggestions you have to aging gracefully at a young age?
Answer: Sounds as if you’re already doing a great job of taking the extra steps in ensuring you age as gracefully! In addition to what you are currently doing you may want to incorporate the following into your lifestyle to ensure that all bases are covered!
A […]
Question:I had several surgeries for fibroid tumors, polyps and cysts resulting in a hysterectomy. I have an enormous abdomen (probably a lot of scar tissue too) now that I can’t get rid of. Should I pursue abdominoplasty or liposuction?
Answer: The best way to judge whether an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) or liposuction is best for you would be by taking a look at your situation. Typically when your abdominal skin and subcutaneous tissue rolls over when you sit down, a tummy tuck is needed. When the abdomen has tight skin that bulges from fatty deposits which are diet and exercise resistant, […]
Question: I have a couple of questions! First how do I burn fat off my stomach? And secondly, is there any way to make my butt bigger without surgery?
Answer Great questions! Improving those two areas on your body are common concerns and can be done using both surgery and natural techniques! When dealing with fat on your stomach let me point out that we do not burn fat, we remove it. Removing fat from the adominal region can be done by doing liposuction or laser followed by liposuction, which is also known as Smartlipo. To learn more about liposuction services […]
QuestionI have lost 65 pounds and now look like a melting candle. What options do I have for my sagging arms, stomach, thighs?
Answer Congratulations on the weight loss! I understand the need to alter the “melting candle” look resulting from this dramatic drop in weight. To achieve your desired image we might be looking at a couple of different procedures. Typically if you have poor elasticity and extra skin, surgical excision is needed. You may need bracelets, abdominoplasty and thigh lift.
An abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) procedure will remove excess skin/fat from the abdomen area. During an initial consultation we’ll examine your […]
Question I am interested in having a neck lift. Can you tell me about the procedure. I heard it is a procedure?
Answer Depending on your situation perhaps a facelift or neck lift would help you reach your goal of a “tighter” yet not ‘too tight’ fresh faced look. If you have good skin elasticity liposuction is often used to remove little fat deposits in the neck area. As a result of the procedure the skin contracts and shrinks; therefore this may the solution to achieve the results you seek.

Question: After lipo do you need a tummy tuck? Is there alot of skin left hanging?
Answer: You may or may not need both. It depends on an individuals skin elasticity. When a patient has rapid weight gains or losses (pregnancy for example) sometimes the skin does not bounce back. The patient can pull it away and it sags. So these patients, regardless of their age, need skin resection when that body part is addressed. Evaluating a persons skin elasticity is a key element for all body contouring procedures. The best way to evaluate that is to come in for a […]
There is nothing as effective as surgery to remove unwanted fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Unfortunately, it can’t stop there. What makes the outcome ‘successful’ longterm is when a patient continues to maintain proper nutrition, daily exercise and adequate sleep. Maintaining one’s diet and workout routine along with surgery will definitely contribute to long-lasting results that all patients (and doctors) want!
What I do is work with my patients pre-surgically and post-surgically to try and identify healthy lifestyles that will help maintain their liposuction results.
These patterns could be
1. Eating the wrong foods (excess of foods that are high in […]
Question: Can Time, Patience and a little Sculptra™ help fight the inevitable signs of aging?
