Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Jeffrey S. Yager

Sourced directly from Dr. Jeffrey S. Yager's social posts and replies.

Does Dr. Yager offer alternatives to general anesthesia?
Yes, Dr. Yager's practice offers procedures performed with local anesthesia, allowing patients to be awake during the procedure and avoid general anesthesia concerns.
Source →
Who is a good candidate for a tummy tuck and what does the procedure involve?
Patients with a history of weight fluctuations (gain or loss) or pregnancy often develop stretched, loose skin and abdominal muscle separation (rectus diastasis) that weakens the core. A tummy tuck addresses these issues by excising excess loose skin, removing fat, and tightening the core muscles. This procedure provides both aesthetic and functional benefits.
Source →
What can patients expect regarding tummy tuck scars?
Tummy tuck scars will continue to fade with time.
Source →
What kind of results can I expect from Botox treatments?
Botox treatments at SY Aesthetics aim for a refreshed appearance, specifically avoiding a 'frozen' look.
Source →
What are the benefits of GLP-1 treatment?
GLP-1 is considered an investment in weight loss, metabolic health, and long-term well-being. Dr. Yager advises starting treatment early.
Source →
What can I expect during a consultation with Dr. Yager?
During consultations, Dr. Yager focuses on educating patients and honestly assessing if they are a good candidate for a procedure and can expect great results.
Source →
When is Liposuction 360 with Renuvion not recommended?
For patients with a history of pregnancy, significant weight fluctuations, excess skin, skin laxity, and rectus diastasis, Liposuction 360 with Renuvion technology alone is not recommended as it will not yield optimal results or patient satisfaction.
Source →
What is the recommended procedure for patients with significant loose abdominal skin and rectus diastasis?
For patients with a history of pregnancy, weight fluctuations, excess skin, skin laxity, and rectus diastasis, the recommended comprehensive body contouring procedure is abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) combined with liposuction.
Source →
Can exercise fix loose abdominal skin or rectus diastasis?
No, exercise is ineffective at removing extra abdominal skin and cannot anatomically correct rectus diastasis (a gap between abdominal muscles causing bulging, often due to internal stretching). While exercise can help strengthen muscles, it won't rejoin separated ones.
Source →
What are the functional benefits of surgery for loose abdominal skin and rectus diastasis?
Surgery for loose skin or rectus diastasis can significantly improve quality of life, enabling patients to move better, play with their children, enjoy family activities, and exercise more comfortably.
Source →
What is Renuvion (J Plasma) and how is it used?
Renuvion, also known as J Plasma, is a technology Dr. Yager often uses for skin contraction and tightening, particularly in conjunction with Liposuction 360.
