Pope Plastic Surgery: George Pope, MD, FACS

Yes, you will meet privately with Dr. Pope during your initial consultation. If you would like more insight into the procedure you’re considering, we may connect you with a past patient who can share their personal experience to help you feel even more informed and prepared.

Yes, Dr. Pope is certified both by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology. He is also a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.

Facelift results are generally long-lasting. While no procedure can stop the aging process, the surgery can essentially turn back the clock by about a decade, rejuvenating your lower face for many years to come.

If you have excessive drooping skin in your upper eyelids or puffy bags in your lower eyelids, you may be a candidate for eyelid surgery, medically known as blepharoplasty. To receive a personalized recommendation, please contact our office to request a consultation.

A tummy tuck is the most effective procedure our practice offers for flattening the abdomen and removing excess skin. While nonsurgical body contouring procedures exist, they do not effectively address the loose skin a tummy tuck is designed to correct.

Most gynecomastia patients can return to work within 2 to 3 days. You may experience some bruising or swelling for about a month, but you should be able to resume most of your normal activities during this time.

Yes. Women often combine breast augmentation with other procedures, such as liposuction, tummy tuck, and breast lift. We often refer to this customizable combination of procedures as a mommy makeover.

Most of the procedures we perform are not covered by insurance, but we do partner with Alphaeon® Credit and CareCredit® to provide flexible payment plans. Please contact our office to discuss your options in detail.

Gynecomastia—a condition involving the overdevelopment of male breast tissue—can occur for various reasons. Removing tissue with liposuction or by excising it typically yields long-lasting results. However, if your condition was the result of lifestyle habits and you haven't changed those habits, then the breast tissue could again become enlarged.

If crow's feet (and not excess skin) are your primary concern, I would recommend BOTOX injections. If you have excess upper eyelid skin that is causing wrinkles at the corners of your eyes, blepharoplasty can help minimize the appearance of crow's feet.

Generally, yes, it's possible to combine abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with hernia repair. Depending on the location, size, and the reason for the hernia, it may require the involvement of a general surgeon along with a plastic surgeon.

Because fillers are formulated differently, the duration of the results also differ. Some fillers last about 9 months while others, such as JUVÉDERM VOLUMA®, may last 18 months to 2 years. It's important to schedule follow-up treatments to maintain your results.

This is a question I hear a lot. I provide guidelines to my breast augmentation patients that they can expect to return to work a desk job about 10 to 14 days after their procedure. It's important to take walks a few times a day during those initial weeks. I recommend waiting at least a month before resuming workouts and limit them to the lower body and non-impact exercises.

To answer your first question, yes, Dr. Pope offers virtual consultations for patients who live outside the Orlando area as well as local residents who feel more comfortable limiting their contact with people outside their homes. We use the Zoom video platform and provide all the necessary instructions after you request a consultation. Our website also includes detailed instructions. The cost of a breast lift varies depending on several factors that will be assessed during the consultation.

The cosmetic use of BOTOX is one of the most significant developments in the aesthetic field in the past 20 years. It is an excellent anti-wrinkle treatment when the injector is experienced and qualified. BOTOX is a very popular treatment at our Orlando practice, as are dermal fillers. Combining fillers and BOTOX is common, but age is less of a factor than the condition of a patient's skin. That said, most 35-year-olds who want to regain a more youthful appearance can benefit from cosmetic injectables.
