Dr. Mentz and Dr. Patronella have worked together to improve the safety of combined breast lift and implant surgeries. The innovative strategy allows for staged inflation of the implant in order to reduce the tension on the breast tissue during the healing phase. This technique was presented by Dr. Mentz at the Texas Society of Plastic Surgeons in 2007.
