Plastic surgery is a procedure that enhances or restores the appearance and function of parts of the body. It may be a procedure that changes your physical appearance; however, the benefits go deeper. Studies show patients who undergo plastic surgery in Atlanta, GA, have good psychological outcomes.
For a very complex procedure, trust only the most highly trained and experienced physician. With over 30 years of experience, our expert plastic surgeon, Dr. Gregory Mackay, excels in delivering exceptional results through a range of surgical procedures. He is a double board-certified plastic surgeon with a reputation for not just his skill but great bedside manner.
Let’s discuss some of the plastic surgery procedures Dr. Mackay performs. We also share real patient transformation stories with each procedure.
Deep Plane Facelift
The deep plane facelift is a specialized technique that provides natural-looking and long-lasting results. Unlike traditional facelifts, this procedure targets deeper layers of facial tissue, lifting and repositioning muscles and fat. This approach minimizes the appearance of aging, restoring a youthful and refreshed look.
Dr. Mackay is one of the few plastic surgeons trained in deep-plane facelifts. Here’s a testimonial from a patient who had a deep plane facelift with Dr. Mackay:
“I was recommended to Dr. MacKay by my physician colleagues for his expertise in this procedure, the deep plane facelift. Many plastic surgeons do “facelifts,” but only a select few in the world can perform this intricate procedure with the attention to detail required.
In the right hands, this procedure provides long-lasting results and much-improved outcomes. Choosing the correct surgeon makes all the difference. I am immensely pleased with my results, more so than I could have ever imagined.
Dr. Mackay made an incredibly complex surgical procedure simple both in explanation and execution. He has an incredible bedside manner and was very patient with me, answering all of my questions thoroughly and comprehensively. The post-surgical recovery was flawless. I am tremendously grateful to Dr. MacKay and his team.”
Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure that improves the abdominal contour. This involves removing excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightening the underlying muscles. The procedure helps create a firmer and flatter abdomen, enhancing the patient’s overall body shape and self-esteem.
Here’s a testimonial from one of our abdominoplasty patients:
“Dr. Mackay and his whole staff make the surgery process from initial consultation to follow-up care seamless, safe, and as pleasant as possible. They are all sensitive to patient needs and patient feedback. They made a very difficult surgery recovery better and the results are AMAZING!”
Facial Reconstructive Surgery
Facial reconstructive surgery is crucial for individuals who have experienced trauma, congenital defects, or disease-related deformities. This type of surgery aims to restore both function and appearance, helping patients regain their quality of life. Procedures can range from repairing cleft lips and palates to reconstructing facial features after accidents or cancer treatments.
With a compassionate approach and meticulous skill, Dr. Mackay provides life-changing results for patients in need of reconstructive care. Here’s a testimonial from the mother of a pediatric patient who underwent craniofacial surgery:
“I was so afraid of the thought of plastic surgery for my child; however, I am amazed with the results! Dr. Mackay and his team worked diligently and efficiently during my son’s procedure. Words can’t express the satisfaction I had with the process. Thank you, Dr. Mackay!”
DIEP Flap
The DIEP (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator) flap is a type of breast reconstruction surgery that uses the patient’s own abdominal skin and fat to create a new breast mound. Unlike traditional methods, the DIEP flap preserves the abdominal muscles, reducing the risk of muscle weakness and preserving core strength. This procedure is ideal for women who have undergone mastectomy due to breast cancer.
Dr. Mackay’s expertise in DIEP flap surgery ensures a natural-looking and feeling breast reconstruction with minimal donor site complications.
Here’s a testimonial from the husband of a patient who underwent DIEP surgery:
“My wife is still recovering from a DIEP flap she had Monday and honestly she looks fabulous. She has had a long journey and fight with cancer but I will say I’m so impressed with how great she is doing and what an excellent job both doctors did on her. She still has a considerable amount of pain but that was a big surgery.
I’m very pleased with their responsiveness and proactive approach towards infection and pain. I would highly recommend this team for breast reconstruction related to cancer!! My wife had tears of joy to look so great after cancer ruined her body. She finally feels like her old self and that makes me one happy husband.”
Here’s another testimonial from a breast reconstruction surgery patient:
“I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Mackay and his whole staff. At arguably the worst time in my life (breast cancer diagnosis and required double mastectomy), they have been reassuring, confident, and kind always.
They make scheduling, insurance, and work claims easy (those things are never easy!). They demonstrate with every appointment how committed they are to not only helping me move forward after cancer but how to feel whole again too in spite of cancer. I am unbelievably grateful to have them in my corner and would enthusiastically recommend them.”
