For some patients, plastic surgery is a way to improve self-confidence.

Fortunately, surgeons like Dr. Alexander Earle of Miami-based Pure Plastic Surgery are dedicated to offering safe, personalized procedures.

Research shows that the way people view themselves, whether good or bad, comes from society. With celebrity influencers on social media now being a big part of where people get their cultural messages, many people have developed poor views of themselves and their appearance. This may develop into a condition called body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), a mental illness affecting some 200,000 Americans every year.

At PURE Plastic Surgery, the focus is relentlessly on producing the best experience for patients. For many women, that involves a significant boost in empowerment and self-esteem after their procedure is complete.

The advice I would give someone who wants to be a plastic surgeon is that they have to love it. It is a long and challenging road, so in order to be happy, you have to truly enjoy what you are doing. I would also add that one should embrace technology that improves the experience and safety of patients. And while surgery can be technical, it’s important to view yourself not only as a doctor but as an artist who shapes, sculpts, and creates using the body as a canvas.

Dr. Earle chats about the South Beach Butt Lift, his new BBL procedure that's taking over Miami in this exclusive 21Ninety interview.

A plastic surgeon is going viral online after revealing the dreaded “diaper booty” women experience after getting a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) — and the horrors that come along with a droopy derriere. Dr. Alex Earle, a double board-certified plastic surgeon based in Miami, is known on TikTok for his tips on how to prevent a “saggy” backside, which he says can be avoided through proper surgery skills.

The state is rolling out new safety rules for plastic surgeons to help cut the risk of the popular cosmetic procedure.

A Miami plastic surgeon says he's invented a new, less invasive version of the Brazilian butt lift (BBL).

The “Brazilian” isn’t the only butt lift on the scene. Dr. Alex Earle, plastic surgeon and TikToker with over 74,000 followers, has created a procedure that he claims delivers a more “natural” result than the popular Brazilian butt lift.

As Dr. Alex Earle, a renowned Miami-based plastic surgeon, explains, many factors go into shaping an hourglass figure. Genetics, bone structure and shape, body type, and lifestyle all play a role. In fact, most people can’t attain this look with exercise alone. “If someone is straight up and down, no exercise or diet can change that into a more curvaceous shape,” says Dr. Alex Earle. “In that case, the best way to create an hourglass figure is to surgically add fat to the hips and butt with the help of a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Pure Plastic Surgery anunció hoy que el Dr. S. Alexander Earle, MD, FACS, ha sido nombrado presidente de la Asociación Mundial de Cirujanos Glúteos (WAGS), con efecto inmediato. El Dr. Earle es un cirujano plástico educado en la Ivy League, certificado por doble junta por la Junta Americana de Cirugía y la Junta Americana de Cirugía Plástica. Es un pionero en la cirugía de Aumento de Glúteos Guiado por Ultrasonido (BBL) y ha sido miembro activo de WAGS desde 2019.

The advent of the BBL is credited to one of the most well-known plastic surgery visionaries, Dr. Ivo Pitanguy, a Brazilian surgeon. Initially, butt lift surgeries removed excess skin and tissue to reduce sagging. According to Dr. Alex Earle, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Miami who has performed more than 2,000 ultrasound-guided BBLs, Dr. Pitanguy advocated for only a modest amount of fat transfer. Yet, surgeons became more aggressive over the years, reallocating much more significant amounts of fat into various planes of the buttocks, which led to the labeling of the surgery as dangerous and even lethal.
