About Dr. Cohen
I was around sixteen. I had seen plastic surgeons performing their work—in person and on TV—and I knew that it just fit with my personality and skill set,” he says. “I was always artistically inclined and good with my hands, and I really loved the way surgery could instantly help people. Once I had a chance to spend time in the OR and really see what surgery was about, all of my plans from that point on were designed to achieve my goal of becoming a plastic surgeon.

FAQs
Most patients feel fine within 1 to 2 weeks. Generally, recovery takes about 4 to 6 weeks before patients return to their normal routine. At the 6 to 8 week post-operative appointment, patients typically start with a quarter of their usual exercise, assess how they feel, and gradually increase their activity. Most patients feel good 1 to 3 weeks after surgery, depending on their age and overall health.
For out-of-town patients, the stay is usually between 5 and 14 days, depending on the procedure(s) involved. Details will be discussed during your consultation.
With certain surgical techniques, the likelihood of breastfeeding after breast surgery is high. The method Dr. Cohen most commonly uses the inframammary incision, which runs along the fold beneath the breast. Not only does this leave a discreet scar; it also doesn't involve the structures of the nipple at all. This preserves the functionality of the breasts, making breastfeeding more possible than it would be with other incisions.
Although minor sagging can be reduced with breast augmentation, the placement of breast implants alone will not correct moderate to severe sagginess. This is because the additional weight of the implant can further weigh down the breast, actually exacerbating sagginess. For patients who would like to improve both the size and position of their breasts, Dr. Cohen recommends combining a breast augmentation with breast lift. During this procedure, excess skin is removed, and the supportive structures of the breasts are tightened in addition to adding implants. This creates a larger, yet lifted, result that can be significantly transformative.
You can. Many women choose to treat multiple areas of their body in a single surgery, a procedure often called a mommy makeover. During this surgery, Dr. Cohen improves both the breasts and midsection of the patient (the areas most commonly affected by pregnancy). Although most women opt for both a breast augmentation and tummy tuck surgery as part of their mommy makeovers, each patient can choose procedures that suit her precise needs.
You will only lose a few pounds as a result of a breast reduction. However, it’s common for women to lose 10-20 pounds in following months because they can exercise more freely.
Yes, you may be able to breastfeed. Be sure to tell Dr. Cohen that you would like to reserve this option.
Tummy tuck surgery requires approximately 10-14 days of only very light activity afterward, and up to six weeks of limited exercise. We will provide very specific aftercare instructions at your pre-op appointment, and our staff is always available to answer questions about recovery.
Mini tummy tucks do not address the upper abdominal muscle laxity and are only a good option for a relatively small percentage of abdominoplasty patients who fit the criteria for this specific technique.
Mommy makeovers combine plastic surgery procedures such as the tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and liposuction to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy.
Liposuction is excellent for reducing areas of excess fat. If you have a tummy bulge or lax skin on your abdomen, a tummy tuck will be needed to repair stretched and separated abdominal muscles and remove excess skin.
Dr. Cohen usually complements tummy tuck results with liposuction of the waist, flanks, and thighs.
