Signature Procedures
Breast Augmentation
A breast augmentation at Ulm Plastic Surgery enhances the size and projection of the breasts. With the help of silicone or saline breast implants, you can achieve the breast volume and shape you’ve been wanting. We can also perform a fat transfer breast augmentation to naturally increase your breast volume while also giving you a trimmer tummy or shapelier thighs.
Mommy Makeover
Pregnancy can lead to lasting changes in the abdomen, breasts, and body contour. A mommy makeover refers to a combination of procedures—such as liposuction, tummy tuck surgery, breast lift, or breast augmentation—performed during the same surgical plan when appropriate. This approach can address multiple areas in a coordinated way, based on a patient’s anatomy, goals, and medical considerations.
Facelift
A facelift is designed to address visible signs of facial aging, including skin laxity and deeper folds. By repositioning underlying tissues and removing excess skin, the procedure can restore more defined facial contours and a smoother overall appearance, based on a patient’s anatomy and goals.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) addresses excess abdominal skin and weakened or separated abdominal muscles that may not improve with diet and exercise alone. By removing redundant skin and tightening the abdominal wall, the procedure can create a firmer, more contoured midsection, based on a patient’s anatomy and surgical goals.
Services Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which service is right for me?
You begin with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Ulm, during which your anatomy, concerns, medical history, and goals are reviewed in detail. You are encouraged to explain what bothers you, what you hope for, and what you want to avoid. From there, Dr. Ulm explains your options, including surgical and non-surgical approaches, and why one may be more appropriate than another. He educates and helps you make an informed decision that feels right for you.
Can procedures be combined in one surgery?
Yes, in many cases, several surgical procedures can be safely combined to address multiple concerns during a single operation. This may include combining body contouring procedures or pairing facial surgery with fat grafting or eyelid surgery. Dr. Ulm carefully evaluates the operative time, safety, and recovery considerations before recommending any combination. If a staged approach will be better suited to you, he will let you know.
What if I have had surgery before and am unhappy with the result?
Dr. Ulm regularly treats secondary and tertiary revision cases. During your consultation, he will review your prior surgery, assess scar tissue and anatomy, and discuss what can realistically be improved and what may not be possible. Patients often seek him out for difficult revisions precisely because of his reconstructive training and straightforward guidance.
Are there risks with cosmetic surgery?
All surgical and non-surgical procedures carry some degree of risk. Dr. Ulm discusses potential complications, recovery expectations, and limitations openly so you understand the full picture.
