Statement: Dr. Ricardo Rodriguez is a Yale-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon practicing in Lutherville, Maryland. With over three decades of surgical experience, he has become well-known for his expertise in cosmetic surgery procedures of the face, body, breasts, and buttocks. Dr. Rodriguez is trilingual speaking English, Spanish, and French.

At his Baltimore-area practice, Dr. Rodriguez performs the entire spectrum of cosmetic procedures, but he specializes in Brazilian butt lift, lip lifts, tummy tucks, total body lifts, liposuction, breast augmentation, and complete mommy makeovers. He also offers nonsurgical treatments such as Botox, and dermal fillers.

“The majority of my office and surgery center staff have been with me for over 10 years,” says Dr. Rodriguez. “We would love to help you make a transformation and improve your appearance.”

After earning his medical degree at the University of Wisconsin, Dr. Rodriguez went on to attend Tulane University in New Orleans, to complete his five-year general surgery residency. This was followed by a head and neck surgery fellowship in London at the Royal Marsden Hospital, and a plastic surgery residency at Yale Medical School.

Dr. Rodriguez was asked to join the staff at Yale and became a professor of plastic surgery, teaching cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. During his tenure, he was involved in artificial skin research and wound care research. He also traveled to France and England to train with internationally renowned plastic surgeons and learn innovative techniques.

Dr. Rodriguez is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). He also served as President of the Maryland State Society of Plastic Surgeons, and was honored by ASPS with the “Distinguished Service Award.”

During the course of his 33-year career, Dr. Rodriguez has been invited to lecture at various conferences throughout the country and overseas, and has been published in numerous medical journals. He was chosen to be on the prestigious editorial board of the Plastic Surgery Educational Network in 2015 and currently serves on RealSelf’s Medical Advisory Board.

Please recommend what is the best procedure to remove my saddlebags?

Saddlebag removal-- Extended Outer Thigh Lift
Oct 31, 2023

Hello,
Based on your photos, you would benefit from an Extended Outer Thigh Lift. It may be necessary to also perform the Posterior Body Lift, if you have excess skin around your backside.

You may also benefit from some amount of Liposuction , but it appears that your main issue is excess skin.

Good luck with your search!

Best option? TT, floating abdominoplasty or reverse TT?

Liposuction with thin cannulas
Oct 30, 2023

Hello,
The answer to your question would best be answered with an in person consult. However, based on your photos, some additional liposuction with thin 3mm cannulas could help smooth things out. Be sure that the surgeon is using thin cannulas. These irregularities an not only appear with Laser Lipo, but they can also appear with traditional liposuction if the doctor is using larger 5mm cannulas. For more liposuction, Only SMALL cannulas will smooth out some of these irregularities....

Hello,

I am sorry to hear that your surgeon did not give you a satisfactory result. The first step is always to talk to the office manager and the surgeon and express your concerns. Given that you have already done that (the surgeon), the next step is to get other consults to find out what can be done to improve the result. To get started ask for a copy of the operative report. This will describe exactly what was done. You do not need the entire record--just the op note. This would be...

How to make my face look shorter?

Upper Lip Lift and Fat Transfer to upper face
Oct 23, 2023

Hello,
You might benefit from an Upper Lip Lift combined with Fat Transfer to the upper face. The upper lip lift will reduce the long space between the base of your nose and the upper lip. This will provide some the affect you are looking for.
In addition, you might consider Fat Transfer to the Upper Face . This will somewhat widen the face and enhance the bone structure of your cheeks. I have performed these two procedures together with fantastic results.

38 y/o considering a facelift - are there any alternative options that will leave a less notic

Endoscopic Brow Lift will lift provide some slight lift to the cheek area
Oct 23, 2023

Hello,
Based on your photos, you could be a candidate for an Endoscopic Brow Lift . This would definitely provide some lift to your cheeks, as well as remove any slight ptosis that you may have in the upper eyelids. The tiny incision is your hairline heals well and none of my patients have ever reported hair loss.

I might also recommend Fat transfer to the upper face. This will also help to accentuate your bone structure in the cheeks. I think the combination of these two procedures would...

Brow Lift or Blepharoplasty?

Endoscopic browlift would likely remove ptosis from the eyelids
Oct 23, 2023

Hello,
The good news is that your photos do not really show the things you mention! In other words you probably do not need any surgery.

However, if these symptoms continue to exist and get worse, the Endoscopic Brow lift is likely for you. This is because it will also remove mild ptosis on the upper eyelids. Check out my video below where I talk about the two procedures.

This is one of our most popular procedures!

Do I need a fleur de lis?

Extended Tummy Tuck or a Body Lift are good solutions
Oct 9, 2023

Hello,
Based on your photos, you would definitely benefit from an Extended Tummy Tuck. This is because you have excess skin over your hips. The ETT will also help your buttocks look better, as it will raise them slightly. Regarding the fleur de lis tummy tuck technique, it is possible that your surgeon may need to have a short vertical incision at the midpoint of the horizontal incision. This should be clarified on your initial examination . The morning of surgery, the surgeon should go...

What do you recommend to improve my tummy and give me larger breasts?

How to improve abdomen and breast
Oct 9, 2023

Hello,
Based on your photos, you look to be in great shape. Congrats on that. Without examination it is hard to tell if you could have a separated rectus diastasis muscle, but you don't appear to have much loose skin. You have very little fat in the abdomen. However, even in thin women like you, there are usually pockets of fat to remove.

With your breast, you have two options:
1) Breast Aug with Implants - any size and shape
2) Fat Transfer to breast-- if you only want 1 cup size...

Tummy tuck done 5 months ago, supposed to have had liposuction included but it wasn't. What ca

Was Liposuction included with my Tummy Tuck
Oct 3, 2023

My first advice is to look at the quote to see if it has Liposuction included. In most practices, Lipo of the flanks is included as a seperate line item. For example a patient having a straight TT is one hour less surgery time than a patient having a TT and Lipo to the Flanks. The lipo would have a seperate charge and longer OR time.
You should also ask to look at the Operative Note. It may be that he did do a tiny bit of Lipo, but not enough that you can see the difference? Just a guess...

Candidate for Tummy Tuck ?

Can you have a Tummy Tuck if you still want to have kids?
Oct 1, 2023

Hello,
You can definitely still have a Tummy Tuck if you want to have kids. However, we would not want you to get pregnant for many months after the procedure. Ideally wait a year.
Over my 30 years in practice, I have had 2 patients get pregnant before the 4 month post op period. It was no danger to the baby. The only issue was that the incisions had not yet had time to completely heal. As I remember it, one patient had a scar revision a couple of years later.

If you are generally...

I want a flat stomach and snatched waist and I just don't know what to do?

Is Liposuction an option ?
Oct 1, 2023

Hello,
Based on the photos it does seem like you don't need a Tummy Tuck. But only an examination could say for sure. With the question of Lipo, the photos are highly cropped so it is hard to determine because I can not see your entire torso.

However, I have performed Lipo on patients who way less that 128 pounds. I use very thin cannulas (3mm) and extract fat from fine areas. I sometimes use an Ultrasound over the abdomen to determine the amount of fat in the abdomen. In some cases,...

What type of tummy tuck do I need?

Extended Tummy Tuck will lift the outer thighs
Oct 1, 2023

Hello,
With the Extended Tummy Tuck , the surgeon will remove skin and tissue more laterally (at the hip bone). This has the beneficial affect of lifting and slenderizing the outer thigh. I perform a lot of Extended Tummy Tucks in my practice.

IMO, you can't really go wrong with the Extended Tummy Tuck.
It does cost more , mainly because it takes a little more time in the Operating Room, but it does produce the leanest profile.

However, either TT version is going to give you a dramatic...

What will get rid of this sad face looking tummy?

A tummy tuck or panniculectomy can remove loose skin
Oct 1, 2023

Hello,

You may benefit from skin removal to tighten the abdomen. This is part of the tummy tuck procedure. The other benefit of a tummy tuck is that it will tighten the rectus diastasis muscle to make the stomach flatter.

It is possible your surgeon did not want to remove too much fat as he he knew the fat extraction was creating more loose skin. But that is just a wild guess! I typically remove 1000-3000cc from the abdomen. On occasion I have removed 5L (5000cc) from just the abdomen,...

Is tummy tuck very much painful? How many days major pain will be there after post op? Conside

Pain control with Exparel or a Pain Pump following a Tummy tuck
Sep 22, 2023

Hello,
Thank you for your question. You should expect to have post op pain for the first week following surgery. This can be greatly managed with the use of an Exparel block (given at the time of surgery) which will numb the area for up to 3 days. In my practice, we also prescribe narcotics for pain . Since they both work in different ways, you can do both at the same time. Lastly, most patients will take a short course of steroids which will help with the swelling, and likewise reduce...
