According to Denver plastic surgeon, Dr. Tanya Atagi, summer is a great time to schedule cosmetic surgery procedures, with patients taking a “summer beauty staycation.” Patients who have extra time off in the summer have used these days to recuperate from procedures at home, perhaps relaxing with a good book in the shade, then return to work or school with a beautiful new look.
Breast augmentation is one of the most popular procedures for summer recovery. Dr. Atagi offers two types of breast augmentation. One is a natural fat transfer method which removes fat from an area that a patient may wish to contour, such as the abdomen or thighs, and then transfers it to the breasts. Dr. Atagi also offers traditional breast augmentation using silicone or saline implants.
Another popular summer choice is the abdominplasty (tummy tuck). During this procedure, Dr. Atagi removes excess fat and skin from the abdomen, tightening the muscles of the abdominal wall to create a slimmer, trimmer midsection. Since this procedure will require a week or two of limited activity, it is ideal for the “beauty staycation.”
“I’ve had a number of patients who have been delighted with their choice to have procedures during their summer time off. For many, recovery can be more relaxed, and the return to work or school feels like a fresh start,” says Dr. Atagi. “Of course, as an added bonus, the Denver area is a scenic place to relax and recuperate, making the ‘summer beauty staycation’ a great choice for many.”
