BEHIND THE SCENES
Upper Blepharoplasty: a procedure that involves resection of redundant skin and/or musculature of the upper eyelid.
Due to aging of the Upper Eyelid or Genetics, a patient may notice the upper lids feel “heavy.”
By just doing the upper eyelids, Dr. Fortes is able to make the patient comfortable by using local anesthesia.
However, this procedure is most often paired with a brow lift and lower blepharoplasty. Doing the three together, we would need to go to the OR to use general anesthesia!
Ready for surgery? 👉 Give Dr. Fortes and his team a call at 713-799-9999 to get on the road to restoring a more youthful appearance!

Ellacor is a relatively new treatment that is meant for deep lines and wrinkles located on the middle part of the face down to the jawline. I will also be using it for other areas of skin that can use tightening as well.
The way it works is by removing a little bit of skin, literally by coring the skin out, so about 5% of the skin gets removed. The effect is that once you have healed, you will have tighter and better looking skin.
We did this treatment under local anesthesia and the patient did great! She was quite comfortable for the entire procedure. *We want to note that it can also be done under general anesthesia while patients are completely asleep.
The best part is that Ellacor falls in a perfect place between major surgery and things like micro needling and radio frequency treatments which makes it perfect for a patient who wants to have an improvement, but isn’t quite ready for a facelift.
3 treatments are recommended spaced about 30 days apart. Follow along to see this patients journey!
I’m excited about it and I can’t wait to incorporate it into my practice more.

We started off our Monday (matching on accident 😄) at Post Oak seeing some new faces + follow ups, and ended the day doing training with @ellacorskin at Kimberley Ln!
Whose ready to learn more 🤩🙋🏻♀️
For now, we will leave it at this…
If you’re close to being ready for a facelift, but not quite there yet… ellacor is your girl ✨

& that’s a wrap!! it’s always a pleasure shooting with @ksweetphoto 📸
Stay tuned for some fun new content 😍

Another Fortes Figure, but look at that 𝘽𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙧 😍 — one of the most effective body contouring combinations is liposuction, a tummy tuck, and fat grafting. You can see here the improvement of the patients ratios removing fat from one area and adding it to another, as well as the improvement of her posture by the tightening of her abdominal muscles ✨
In the Plastic Surgery world, summer bodies are made now. We’re currently booking patients in the months of March and April to be ready for summer vacations!

IMPLANT SETTLING
Breast augmentation recovery doesn’t end when the incisions are healed. Anywhere from 6 weeks to 6 months after surgery, your implants will settle into a lower, more natural looking position. 🍒
• factors that influence settling •
🍒 implant placement- Implants that are placed below the muscle may experience upper pole or above the nipple fullness at first. Also, implants may take longer to settle in an athletic patient with strong chest muscles.
🍒 implant size: larger implants are going to settle at a faster rate than smaller implants due to the weight and well.. gravity.
🍒 post op instructions: following Dr Fortes’ post surgery instructions will speed healing and can help implants settle sooner. After your incisions are healed, massages will be your best friend.

Guess what the NUMBER ONE thing we are told when @drfortes_plasticsurgery mentions adding some fat to the booty to create a better contour is….
…wait for it……
“I don’t know about that, I don’t want a butt like Kim K” 😄
Every once in a while we will get a patient who does have that desire and the answer is NOPE.
Education time. One round of fat grafting to the butt safely is never going to give you the result of a butt like Kim Kardashian. Period. It would take multiple surgeries to get you built up to that.
So no need to worry, you can trust Dr. Fortes to fill in the areas that lack volume to simply create a better shape 🍑✨
