Ever extending the boundaries of plastic surgery innovation, Dr. Ricardo Rodriguez applies his broad experiences in terms of life, geography, surgical approaches, and training. Constantly driven to push the specialty forward, he applies process engineering to every patient he sees.

In just one example, when he first began fat grafting in 2008, he developed an immediate fascination and spent time researching and brainstorming how to apply it in the most beneficial and strategic way possible.

Today, Dr. Rodriguez’s approach differs from most surgeons, as the fat is injected into the superficial layer just beneath the dermis. Understanding that fat grafting not only volumizes, but also changes the character of skin to appear younger, he focuses on making skin thicker and stronger before stretching and cutting it.

ABOUT MEET THE DOCTOR

The purpose of the Meet the Doctor podcast is simple. We want you to get to know your doctor before meeting them in person because you’re making a life changing decision and time is scarce. The more you can learn about who your doctor is before you meet them, the better that first meeting will be.

When you head into an important appointment more informed and better educated, you are able to have a richer, more specific conversation about the procedures and treatments you’re interested in. There’s no substitute for an in-person appointment, but we hope this comes close.

Meet The Doctor is a production of The Axis.
Made with love in Austin, Texas.
