The size of your implant is one of the breast implant options that will need to be determined prior to your surgery.
Size Matters
The size of your breast implants should serve two purposes: meet your aesthetic desires and ideally compliment your frame. To accomplish this, Dr. Diehl will first listen closely to what you hope to accomplish.
After listening to your desires, Dr. Diehl will carefully examine your entire frame. With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Diehl is skilled at determining what implant size will best meet both meet your needs and compliment your entire body.
It is important to remember that cup size is not a good measurement for breast implants. Cup sizes vary by manufacturer and style, making them inconsistent at best. Dr. Diehl will work personally with you to help you determine the size implant, not bra, which will most suit your needs.

Tummy Tuck Benefits
If your midsection is impacted by sagging skin, excess deposits of fat, and loose abdominal muscles, a tummy tuck can tone, strengthen, and restore ideal aesthetics to your body.
Board-certified Long Island plastic surgeon Dr. Gregory Diehl can perform a tummy tuck alone or in combination with other body contouring procedures to help you look and feel amazing about your body. Whether or not a tummy tuck can benefit you is best determined during your initial consultation.
Aesthetic and Physical Benefits
A tummy tuck can vastly improve the contours of your body which can, in turn, improve clothing options, enhance your self-esteem, and restore self-confidence. These benefits are inherent with this procedure, but certainly not the extent of what benefits a tummy tuck can offer.
If you are prepared to transform your life for the better, tummy tuck surgery may be good starting point. This procedure can make physical activities that have been either embarrassing or difficult much more accessible. It can also help improve core strength and balance, two essential components of more advanced forms of physical exertion.
Your tummy tuck benefits depend on the effort you are willing to put into obtaining and maintaining physically peak health. Dr. Diehl will be happy to discuss this with you in more detail during your initial tummy tuck consultation.

Scarring and Breast Augmentation
As with any surgical procedure, breast augmentation can result in some scarring. Board-Certified Long Island plastic surgeon Dr. Gregory Diehl takes every care to hide and minimize your scars.
Minimizing Scars
Dr. Diehl offers these options for breast augmentation incisions:
- Inframammary – underneath the breast in the crease where breast and chest meet
- Transaxillary – through the armpit
Dr. Diehl does not recommend periareolar or around the nipple incision, because this is the most visible area of the breast and the scars will definitely be visible, especially up close. Each incision option has both benefits and drawbacks that are specific to your body. During your initial consultation, Dr. Diehl will discuss all of your options and carefully evaluate your lifestyle and clothing choices to help you determine which incision will produce the least obvious scarring.
Your Role
You can help ensure that your incisions heal their best by following all of Dr. Diehl’s pre- and post-operative advice. This will include, keeping your incisions clean, and avoiding strenuous activities during your recovery period. All of this will be discussed in full during your initial consultation.

Silicone vs. Saline Breast Implants
One of the breast implant options you will need to consider prior to your breast augmentation procedure is which type of implant is right for you. Long Island plastic surgeon Dr. Gregory Diehl will discuss all of your options in full during your initial consultation, but coming to your consultation with a general idea of the differences between silicone and saline breast implants can be helpful in making an informed decision.
Silicone Breast Implants
Silicone breast implants have a tendency to look and feel more like natural breast tissue. Silicone implants are also less likely to ripple or wrinkle compare to saline implants.
Saline Breast Implants
Saline implants do not look and feel as natural as their silicone alternatives. In addition, saline implants are more prone to aesthetic imperfections such as rippling and wrinkling, although this is less of an issue if you have your implants placed below the muscles in your chest.
There is no single option best for every patient. Dr. Diehl will listen closely to your desires, inform you of all of your options, and help you determine which breast implant type is best for you.

Benefits of Liposuction
Liposuction is a highly effective way to remove excess stubborn deposits of fat from nearly every area of your body. For many men and women, diet and exercise alone are insufficient at removing fat deposits from places such as thighs, abdomen, flanks, buttocks, back, chest, and neck. If you are within reach of your ideal weight, but need help ridding those last few areas of fatty deposits, board-certified Long Island plastic surgeon Dr. Gregory Diehl can use liposuction to help you reach your goals.
Liposuction Benefits
The modern liposuction techniques utilized by Dr. Diehl can remove excess fatty tissue and also encourage your skin to firm around your new contours. This is essential for obtaining a slim and toned physique.
In addition to aesthetic benefits, liposuction can act as a springboard for a healthier lifestyle. Once removed, fat will not come back, but to keep new fat from appearing, adopting a healthy lifestyle is essential. If you allow it, liposuction can be a motivating factor to begin a more rigorous exercise routine, improving not only the contours of your body, but your overall health as well.
