The timing of your surgery can make a big difference, and some seasons are just easier than others.
Winter is often ideal for body contouring procedures. Why? For starters, you don’t have to worry about overheating in snug recovery garments, and by the time summer rolls around, you’ll be ready to show off your results.
For Dr. Breister, the week between Christmas and New Year’s is one of the busiest times in the OR. It’s the perfect time to slow down, hide under cozy sweaters, and get a little extra help from family or friends while you recover.

13 years after Danielle switched from saline to silicone breast implants, something felt off. When it felt like one of her implants was playing hide and seek during mammograms, she knew something needed to be done.
When she met with Dr. Salazar, he found that her right implant shifted out of place and the crease under her breasts disappeared. He decided to swap out the old implants for new ones and give her a breast lift while he was at it.
Safety was huge for Danielle, so she did her research before moving forward with anything. Find out why she knew Dr. Salazar was the right doctor as soon as she met him, how her recovery went, and how she’s feeling about her breast revision results.

Regina had a nightmare experience after her first tummy tuck and liposuction with an unqualified surgeon elsewhere, landing in the hospital for two weeks with an abscess followed by home nursing, and then requiring a walker and cane to get around.
When it came time to fix the mess, she was understandably worried. LJCSC plastic surgeon Dr. Swistun removed her dog ears, tightened and smoothed out her skin, and redid her incisions to be barely noticeable.
She’s thrilled to finally be able to look in the mirror and not be reminded of all that baggage from the past.
Hear how she went about researching doctors for revision surgery after her experience, how she found Dr. Swistun, and how she knew he was the one.

The term “en bloc” floats around online in breast implant associated illness circles, but this actually refers to cancer surgery where healthy tissue around a tumor is removed.
To update the terminology and clear up any confusion about capsulectomy, Dr. Luke Swistun explains the definitions and differences between the specific explant procedures.
For his usual breast implant removal procedure, “total intact" is the most accurate term, which involves carefully removing the entire capsule without disturbing healthy tissue.

Amie had her first breast augmentation with saline implants at age 21 (back in 1998 when Pamela Anderson was the “it girl") and 13 years later switched to silicone.
When unexplained symptoms emerged, she wondered if her breast implants were the cause. Feeling lost, she found an online community focused on breast implant illness (BII). It was in this group where she heard about LJC plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun.
After her capsulectomy & explant surgery, Amie learned from Dr. Swistun that her left implant had ruptured.

Nan stepped on the scale one day and realized she had gained 50 lbs thanks to staying in during COVID, drinking wine, and cooking a lot.
When she tried eating smaller portions and exercising every day, she failed to lose even 5 lbs. Within 10 days of starting the skinny shot, she lost 17 lbs. Feeling great, she kept going and is now 30 pounds lighter.
She’s now wearing jeans she couldn’t even get over her waist before, but more importantly, her relationship with food has completely changed.
