The best plastic surgery is in patients who you can’t tell have had it.

Philosophy

Dr. Bradley Bengtson is a distinguished expert in advanced breast augmentation and abdominoplasty, specializing in the art of enhancing his patients’ natural beauty. His approach incorporates cutting-edge techniques that revolutionize these procedures. He emphasizes the importance of 3-D simulation and implant selection, allowing patients to visualize their desired results before surgery. He states, “Innovations that make breast surgery an easier process to undergo include 3-D simulation and implant selection.” Furthermore, his use of highly cohesive Gummy Bear implants with minimal wrinkling and higher fill ensures natural, longlasting results. With a ‘bloodless surgery’ approach that minimizes bruising, swelling, and pain, he delivers beautiful results with a smoother recovery. His wealth of experience ensures beautiful outcomes tailored to match specific patient desires, solidifying his reputation as a leading expert in breast and body procedures.

Plastic surgery has always been very innovative, but the curve is becoming much more exponential

WHEN YOU KNOW YOU’RE READY FOR SURGERY
When your concerns exceed what can be accomplished with nonsurgical techniques, particularly skin excess
7
CAREER-DEFINING PROCEDURE
For me, it’s been a focus on breast augmentation and breast revision using tissues and scaffolds
