Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Steven Svehlak

Sourced directly from Dr. Steven Svehlak's social posts and replies.

What are the indications for buccal fat removal?
Buccal fat removal is indicated for individuals with unwanted cheek fat, offering an effective solution to reduce fullness in this area.

What does a mini Brazilian butt lift (Mini BBL) procedure involve?
A mini BBL involves body sculpting and fat transfer to the buttocks. The procedure is performed in the office under local anesthesia. It typically begins with liposuction to collect fat from the front of the body, followed by flipping the patient to continue on the back side. Renuvion plasma treatment is also added to help firm tissues and tighten skin.
Source →
Who is a candidate for umbilicoplasty and what are the desired outcomes?
Umbilicoplasty addresses common patient concerns about belly button appearance, including those present since childhood, stretched belly buttons after having children, or unsatisfactory results after a tummy tuck. Patients often seek to transform an 'outie' into a more natural, round, or vertical 'innie' shape, or to address extra skin folds or a 'donut-like' bulge around the belly button. The procedure aims to restore confidence and achieve a more aesthetically pleasing, natural-looking belly button.
Source →
What is the umbilicoplasty procedure like and what is the recovery?
Umbilicoplasty is a straightforward, in-office procedure typically taking one to two hours. It is performed under local anesthesia, with numbing medication (lidocaine) injected around the belly button and sometimes oral sedation. Patients are usually awake and experience no pain during the procedure. Post-operative care involves small bandages and ointment, with patients typically returning to regular activities the next day. Scars are located on the inside of the belly button and are usually not visible.
Source →
What should I know about umbilical hernias, especially during or after pregnancy?
Umbilical hernias are very common, particularly during pregnancy, when hormones can cause muscle layers to stretch and a weak spot under the belly button may open. This allows fat or other contents to protrude, causing the belly button to stick out. While an umbilical hernia should not be fixed during pregnancy, a persistent protrusion after pregnancy indicates a hernia. These can often be pushed back in, and while they don't always require fixing, if you are undergoing cosmetic belly button surgery, any existing umbilical hernia should be repaired at the same time.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$347

Payments

5

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Steven Svehlak received $347 across 5 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
