He is a strong advocate for patient education and safety, frequently authoring publications about modern plastic surgery techniques and the latest advancements in the field. Dr. Garlick also utilizes many techniques to further improve and refine plastic surgery results, including his three-dimensional silhouette approach to tummy tuck surgery with customized belly button creation, and his use of “internal bra” techniques and fat transfer during breast surgery.
