In this brief YouTube monologue, a cosmetic surgeon outlines three specific procedures they will not perform, even if requested by a patient. The first is buccal fat pad removal, which the surgeon warns against because the fat may be needed later in life for facial volume. The second is a "reverse tummy tuck" (a top‑down abdominal lift), which the surgeon claims never yields lasting, successful results despite looking good temporarily. The third is the placement of breast implants that are too large for a patient’s body frame; the surgeon explains that exceeding the body’s capacity leads to complications. Throughout, the speaker emphasizes patient safety and long‑term outcomes over short‑term aesthetic desires.

Here are 3 procedures I won't do, even if you ask for it. Number 1, buccal fat pad removal. A lot of times we want that fat later in life, so you're going to see me if I take it out because you're going to want that back in 10 years later. Uh, number 2 is a reverse tummy tuck. Never works out to try to do a tummy tuck from the top. I know in the mirror it looks good when you pull it up like that, but it never translates into a successful surgery. Number 3, I would say going too big for your body with breast implants. Okay, if you size above your base width, your body's ability to handle the implant, you're going to run into problems. So I'm just not going to do it.
