Dr. Shulman

A Sarasota Plastic Surgeon With an Artist's Training

Work With One Surgeon, Start to Finish

Sovereign Plastic Surgery is a solo practice, so Dr. Alissa Shulman handles your consultation, your surgery, and your follow-up herself. There's no assistant who quotes your price or explains your options.

She has practiced since 2000, opened Sovereign Plastic Surgery in Sarasota in 2009, and has been board certified since 2002. She's a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (F.A.C.S.), the first woman to serve as Chief of Surgery at Sarasota Memorial Hospital, and the only plastic surgeon ever appointed Chief of Staff there.

High Volume Fat Grafting in Sarasota

Use Your Own Fat to Restore Shape and Volume

Fat grafting moves fat from one part of your body, such as the thighs or abdomen, and places it where you'd like more shape. Dr. Shulman has performed high volume fat grafting since 2013 and was the first surgeon in Sarasota to offer it, transferring larger amounts in a single session than many surgeons attempt.

Patients choose it to rebuild a breast during breast reconstruction, to soften the change after breast implant removal, or to add fullness without implants. Recovery is straightforward, which is part of why patients travel from across Florida and the Southeast for it.

Insurance and Payment Options in Sarasota

Know What Insurance Covers Before You Come In

We accept insurance for breast reconstruction after cancer surgery. Cosmetic procedures aren't covered by any insurance plan, so those are self-pay, and we take major credit cards along with CareCredit and Cherry financing. If you're not sure which category your procedure falls under, call us and we'll tell you.
