Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Timothy Zelko

Sourced directly from Dr. Timothy Zelko's social posts and replies.

What is Dr. Zelko's approach to pre-operative markings for brachioplasty (arm lift)?
Before a brachioplasty (arm lift), Dr. Zelko meticulously maps out the surgical areas. Every mark serves a purpose, helping to identify areas of excess skin and tissue and to tailor the procedure to the patient’s unique shape and contour.
What type of anesthesia does Dr. Zelko use for brachioplasty (arm lift)?
Dr. Zelko performs brachioplasty with tumescent anesthesia, which allows patients to remain awake, aware, and comfortable throughout the procedure.
Does Dr. Zelko perform Tickle Tuck on patients with previous C-section scars?
Yes, Dr. Zelko performs pre-operative markings on Tickle Tuck patients, including those with previous C-section scars, to ensure a tailored procedure.
How does Dr. Zelko address the appearance of C-section scars and other scar tissue?
C-section scars can sometimes result in discoloration, uneven texture, or thicker, fibrous scar tissue. While scars are a natural part of healing, their appearance can often be improved. Dr. Zelko utilizes CO₂ Fractional Laser treatments, which are designed to stimulate collagen remodeling and improve the appearance and texture of scar tissue. Over time, these treatments may help soften the look, smooth uneven texture, and reduce the appearance of discoloration in scars.
What are the benefits of Awake Brachioplasty (arm lift)?
Awake Brachioplasty (arm lift) can help address excess skin and create a smoother, more defined appearance of the upper arms.
What is the Aveli procedure for cellulite, and what can patients expect?
The Aveli device targets the bands beneath the skin that contribute to cellulite, helping to create a smoother-looking appearance, particularly for areas like the buttocks and thighs. While the device may appear intimidating, the procedure is an 'in-and-out' treatment, often completed in as little as 15 minutes for standalone cases, and the practice ensures patient comfort throughout. It is suitable for patients, including younger guests, who do not have significant skin laxity, and can effectively eliminate unwanted dimples.
