October 16, 2023/in Belly button surgery, Brazilian Butt Lift, Plastic Surgery /by Dr. Matthew Schulman

Dr. Schulman would like to mention his 3 most common plastic surgery procedures in NYC. These procedures included cosmetic procedures of the face and body, as well as reconstructive surgery from head to toe.

To come up with his “Top 3”, He looked at several factors including the number of cosmetic procedures performed, media requests about these cosmetic procedures, and overall demand.

#3 Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, often called a “boob job,” enhances breast size using implants or fat transfer. It restores volume, shape, and symmetry. 
 
Breast augmentation surgery achieves:
  • Enhanced breast fullness and projection
  • Improved breast-hip contour balance
  • Boosted self-image and confidence.

Dr. Schulman does a lot breast augmentations each year with plastic surgery patients coming from all over the country to book these popular cosmetic surgery procedures. Plastic surgery patients usually come for more than one procedure and combine breast augmentation with other procedures like tummy tuck and breast lift.

Umbilicoplasty

The demand for belly button surgery or Umbilicoplasty has continued to increase over the past several years. Common requests are to make an “outie” into an “inne”, remove that overhanging “hood” of skin, or remove the remnants of a belly button piercing. The beauty of this procedure is that I can perform a significant improvement in the comfort of my office, using only local anesthetic and under 45 minutes.

My patients complain of only a small amount of soreness that lasts for 1-2 days afterwards, making this an extremely easy recovery as far as plastic surgery procedures go. In 2011, I performed several belly button surgeries per week, and drew patients from all over the tri-state area and as far away as London. I have basically become known as “the belly button plastic surgeon” because I perform a large number of this very uncommon procedure.

Brazilian Butt Lift

Requests for the Brazilian butt lift has definitely increased. With continued media focus on Beyonce, JLo, and Pippa Middleton, request for a lifted and fuller backside was through the roof. To improve the shape of the buttock, Dr. Schulman uses a new plastic surgery technique that combines liposuction and fat injection. Commonly known as the Brazilian Butt Lift, this technique involves removing fat from the areas around the buttock (the outer thighs and lower back), processing this fat, and reinjecting it into the buttock.

The result is a rounder, fuller, and more lifted backside. While there are many plastic surgeons performing this procedure, Dr. Schulman has added several techniques to the procedure that I think improves my results and increases fat survival. In addition to meticulous liposuction and fat harvesting techniques, He adds specialized growth factors to the fat before he reinjects it.

This addition of growth factors is unique to my practice and it is one of the reasons why people are choosing me over the numerous other surgeons offering Brazilian Butt Lifts.

March 2, 2023/in Umbilicoplasty /by Dr. Matthew Schulman

Pictures recently surfaced that rocked the world of females aged 25-45.   John Stamos, known most famously for his role as Uncle Jessie on Full House and considered among the “hottest” men around (or so my wife says) is not so perfect after all.

People are saying that John Stamos belly button is deformed. What John Stamos has is more than simply an “outie” and he claims it is the result of a childhood to repair an umbilical hernia.

What Is an Umbilical Hernia

John Stamos belly buttonAn umbilical hernia is an opening in the abdominal wall and results in the protrusion of fat or intestine. This appears like an “outie” that can be pushed in. These hernias are extremely common in infants and usually close on their own by age 2 or 3 years old. Hernias that fail to close may require a surgical procedure to close the opening, preventing potential complications in the future.

The most serious complication can be a piece of the intestine getting stuck in the opening causing bowel obstruction, partial death of the intestine, and septic shock.

So, if his hernia was repaired, why does his belly button look like that? This is probably because the surgeon closed the opening with sutures, which is the appropriate thing. But what the surgeon probably failed to do is remove any fat that was trapped outside the opening, or trim the excess skin of the belly button.

This may be the reason why he has a bulging belly button with overhanging skin. Essentially, the hernia was repaired, but little consideration was given to the cosmetic portion of the procedure. As a plastic surgeon, I have trained in BOTH general surgery AND plastic surgery. This means that I am able to repair the hernia AND make the belly button look better!

Cosmetic Belly Button Procedure

But don’t worry if you have had your hernia fixed and you belly button still doesn’t look good. You can still have a cosmetic belly button procedure that improves the appearance. Cosmetic surgery of the belly button, or umbilicoplasty, has become one of the most common in-office procedures that I perform.

In fact, I have been nicknamed “Dr. Belly Button” by many of my patients who come great distances for the procedure. It takes anywhere from 30-60 minutes and is done using only local anesthesia. The recovery time is rapid.

So John, if you are reading this (if you are not, then you are really missing out on a great blog), give me a call so I can correct your only flaw.

Are there any risks?

Make sure to contact your doctor right away if you notice any of the following symptoms in the weeks after your surgery:

  • severe bleeding
  • nausea
  • dizziness
  • pain that doesn’t go away
  • signs of infection, such as a fever, unusual smell, or colored discharge

The Bottom Line

Umbilicoplasty is a procedure that can help your change the shape of your bellybutton. If you’re considering it, scarring is always an issue but if you choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon they will be able to get the result you want.

Depending on your situation, the procedure might not be worth the risk. Also, if you are a women and getting pregnant is in your future plans, it’s best to hold off on the surgery to avoid undoing the results.
