Statement: Dr. Dennis Schimpf, MD, is a board-certified plastic surgeon practicing in Summerville, South Carolina, with expertise in cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery of the face, breasts, and body.

As the founder of Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery, Dr. Schimpf strives to provide exceptional care for his patients. Dr. Schimpf and his team at Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery perform more than 2,000 surgical procedures each year. He specializes in breast enhancement procedures, including breast augmentation, breast lifts, breast reduction, and breast reconstruction surgery.

Patients also turn to Dr. Schimpf for surgical body contouring procedures, such as tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), liposuction, Brazilian butt lifts, and full mommy makeovers. He also frequently performs facial plastic surgeries, including rhinoplasty, eye lifts (blepharoplasty), facelifts, and neck lifts, as well as hair restoration, including FUE hair transplant and Keralase.

His state-of-the-art facility at Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery also includes a medspa, where patients can choose from a wide range of nonsurgical treatments. Popular offerings include Botox, Juvederm, Kybella, Sculptra Aesthetic, laser skin resurfacing, BodyTite, SmartLipo, chemical peels, microneedling, and laser tattoo removal.

Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery’s exclusive Lowcountry Lift combines a series of minimally invasive procedures that rejuvenate the face and restore a more youthful appearance: Botox, SmartSkin CO2 laser skin resurfacing, PrecisionTx skin tightening, facial filler, and an upper eyelid lift.

After earning his bachelor’s degree from Daemen College and his MBA from the University of South Carolina, Dr. Schimpf obtained his medical degree from Ross University School of Medicine. He then completed his surgery residency at the University at Buffalo School of Medicine and Biomedical Science and his plastic surgery residency at the Medical University of South Carolina, where he became a full-time faculty member and honed his reconstructive surgery skills.

Upon completion of his training, Dr. Schimpf founded the Advanced Breast Reconstruction Program at the Hollings Cancer Center, which is designated by the National Cancer Institute. After five years of leading the program, Dr. Schimpf opened his private practice at the Medical University of South Carolina. Initially, he focused on reconstructive surgery, specifically breast reconstruction, cleft lip and palate surgery, and post-hernia abdominal reconstruction. Working with such challenging surgical cases gave Dr. Schimpf a strong foundation and unique experience, which he would later expand to include cosmetic aesthetic procedures.

Dr. Schimpf is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery, and the American College of Surgeons.

Throughout his career, Dr. Schimpf has been featured in various media appearances and publications. He frequently travels throughout the country to speak at medical conferences. In 2018, Dr. Schimpf published his book, Finding Beauty: Think, See and Feel Beautiful, which explores the powerful and positive impact cosmetic surgery can have on a person’s perception of themselves.

Beyond his work at Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery, Dr. Schimpf devotes his time to philanthropy. He founded Pedals 4 Peanuts, a nonprofit that provides new bicycles and helmets to underserved families.

What type of procedure would work best to improve the appearance of my abdomen?
Additional option
Jun 2, 2015
Thank you for the photographs and the question. I agree with the answers above in the sense that not having had children and associated issues with diastasis of the rectus muscles, liposuction would seem to be a good fit. In addition your skin appears to be healthy. I have been very happy with the results of smart liposuction in patients such as yourself. The use of laser based liposuction and the associated heat not only helps eliminate the fat, but it also improves overall skin…
Can Reverse Abdominoplasty be done with Kocher Gallbladder scar without concern for blood supply?
Blood supply
May 10, 2015
There is concern for blood supply to the distal abdominoplasty flap in the setting of a previous kocher incision. Ideally we would like to remove the scar with the procedure. But this is not always feasible. In addition the time period between the kocher incision and the abdominoplasty is important. The longer the time period the better re-established the blood flow will be. I agree it is doable but you should definitely seek the opinion of a board certified plastic…
I have permanent stitches popping out through my abdomen in random locations. What can I do about it
Sutures
May 10, 2015
I completely agree with the other comments. Generally speaking these sutures can be removed with local anesthetic in the office. I no longer use permanent sutures either because I had seen this same issue in some of my patients.
4 days post op. My breasts are nice full on top and bottom but are empty, saggy, and loose in the mi
Yes
May 10, 2015
Overall it takes approximately three months for the implants to settle into there final position. Initially they are high and over this time period they drop. They may not necessarily drop at the same rate or equally during the process but they generally even out over the three month period. You look like you are healing very well for being so soon after your procedure.
