The patients who end up genuinely happy with their results are the ones whose plan started with their anatomy, not a letter.
Need to Know
I'm Dr. Matthew McLeod, founder of Seaport Plastic Surgery here in Savannah. Before you ever sit down across from me in a consult, I wanted to build a place where you could ask the questions you're actually curious about — not the sanitized version, the real one. The question you've typed into a search bar at midnight. The one you're a little embarrassed to say out loud. The one where you just want a straight answer instead of a sales pitch.
That's what this section is.
Every article here is written the way I'd actually answer you in the room — in my own words, question by question, covering the things patients ask me most: what a procedure actually involves, how much it's really going to hurt, what recovery looks like beyond the vague “a few weeks,” and where I genuinely differ from the way a lot of this is typically done. I'd rather you walk into your consultation already informed than spend that first visit on the basics.
The patients who end up genuinely happy with their results are the ones whose plan started with their anatomy, not a letter.
Facelift consults have changed in the last few years. Patients used to ask general questions about lifting and tightening.
Losing a significant amount of weight — through bariatric surgery, through GLP-1 medications, through years of genuine work — is supposed to feel like the finish line.
“I look tired” is the phrase I hear more than almost any other in eye consults, usually followed by “even when I’m not.”
Patients almost always walk in asking for “a lift,” and about half the time, a lift alone isn’t actually the right answer.
Patients ask for a “tummy tuck” more often than they ask for what a tummy tuck actually does.
Gynecomastia is one of the most common reasons men end up in a plastic surgeon’s office, and one of the least talked about outside of it.
A mommy makeover combines tummy tuck, breast surgery, and liposuction into one operation, so recovery is longer than any single procedure on its own.
This guide walks you through what to expect, week by week. Keep it handy, but always defer to the specific instructions we give you at discharge if anything here differs.
Upper blepharoplasty is one of the more comfortable procedures we perform, and most patients are back to routine faster than expected.
Labiaplasty is one of the most common procedures we perform, and my team and I are well practiced in guiding patients through this recovery.
A breast lift is a procedure I love performing, and the recovery matters just as much as the surgery itself. This guide walks you through what to expect, week by week.
Thank you for trusting me and my team at Seaport Plastic Surgery with your facelift. This guide is a general roadmap for recovery.
