Dr. Lacerna at LA Plastic Surgery in Sarasota & Bradenton offers the Best Brazilian Butt Lift, a plastic surgery procedure that will enhance the appearance of your buttocks through a fat transplant method. This procedure helps you maximize your body contouring results since the region where fat was removed will appear more toned while your buttocks will become more full, round, and perky.
Sarasota Bradenton Liposuction provided by LA Plastic Surgery to their clients. This is a procedure that can help sculpt the body by removing unwanted fat from specific areas, including the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, upper arms, chin, cheeks and neck. Although this is not a substitute for dieting and exercise, liposuction can remove stubborn areas of fat that do not respond to traditional weight-loss methods.
Dr. Lacerna at LA Plastic Surgery in Sarasota specializes in Mommy Makeovers and bringing "sexy back" to her patients. This very popular procedure combines a breast augmentation with or without a breast lift with an abdominal contouring procedure such as liposuction, or a mini or full abdominoplasty or tummy tuck.

I can’t say enough about the experience I had with Dr. Lacerna. Throughout the whole process, she was available for continual consultation, was compassionate, and totally made me feel at ease. Her facility, her Operating Room, her discretion, and her overall countenance are just very special. I was very specific as to what I wanted, and I am a perfectionist; Dr. Lacerna not only met, but exceeded my discerning expectations. I am now almost 4 months post op, and my body looks amazing, and I feel amazing. Thank you Dr. Lacerna, you are a great doctor, surgeon, and person !! Your Happy Patient,

Don't waste your time with this doctor. She postponed my appointment for over a month and then had an office person call me the day before my re-scheduled appointment to say that she doesn't take my insurance. Unbelievable! I wasted over a month screwing around with her incompentency.

Dr Lacerna & her team of professionals are amazing ! I had a breast reduction and lift. I would highly recommend this Center for any plastic surgery needs. The staff make you feel welcome and Lacerna listens… to your wants and needs. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed. After the surgery they checked on me and made sure I was recovering. I would use La Plastics for my future needs.

The staff at LA Plastics is very welcoming when you arrive to when you leave. They even followed up with me after my procedure. I felt in good hands with Lacerna and her team. They were kind to me and I am very pleased with the final result. I would recommend this location for plastic surgery needs and her facility as well for being extremely clean and professional as well.

After having one of her clients come to me for lymphatic massage. which I do for a few different surgeons. I was so impressed with her work. I referred a close friend that lived in Bradenton to go to her. I went with my friend to her Appointment. I was so impressed with Dr. Lacerna's bed side manner and the respect she showed everyone was out of this world. All the staff was incredibly, extremely helpful and friendly.

I had surgery recently again with Dr. Lacerna and her team. I can’t begin to tell you all how amazing she is! She’s beyond kind and caring! Someone such as myself who would love to change everything, Dr. Lacerna won’t do it! What she does however, is make the best self you can be! This holds true inside as well! She has given me a confidence I struggle to have! Wouldn’t trust another doctor nor staff ever other then these fantastic women!! Don’t waist your time run, drive to them!!! You’ll never be sorry!!

This is by far my favorite medical office. The staff is amazing and extremely friendly. Dr. Lacerna is wonderful from her welcoming smile to her handy work in the OR. I have referred everyone to her office for any plastic surgery. Everyone i know has noticed the work she done for me, I am so happy that I picked her as my plastic surgeon.
