Dr. Lena Weinman
Fellowship-Trained Cosmetic Surgeon Specializing in Gender-Affirming Breast Augmentation and Body Contouring in Lansing
Dr. Lena Weinman, DO, is a fellowship-trained cosmetic surgeon practicing at Aqua Aesthetics & Wellness in Lansing, Michigan. A former OB/GYN with a longstanding commitment to women's health and LGBTQ+ advocacy, Dr. Weinman brings a deeply informed and affirming approach to surgical care for transgender and non-binary patients. Her practice focuses on gender-affirming procedures such as breast augmentation and body sculpting, grounded in both surgical expertise and aesthetic precision.
With a medical degree from Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Weinman completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at McLaren Greater Lansing, a Michigan State University-affiliated teaching hospital. She is board-certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and is a Fellow of the American College of Osteopathic Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Her early foray into aesthetic medicine began with non-surgical treatments including neurotoxins and dermal fillers, eventually leading her to serve as Medical Director of several Michigan-based med spas.
In 2024, Dr. Weinman completed a year-long Cosmetic Surgery Fellowship under Dr. Tony Mangubat, a renowned surgeon with more than two decades of experience in transgender surgical care. Her fellowship provided extensive hands-on training in gender-affirming breast augmentation and body feminization techniques using fat grafting and advanced liposuction.
Dr. Weinman continues to stay engaged with the surgical and aesthetic community as a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine, and AmSpa.
Gender-Affirming Breast Augmentation in Lansing
Gender-affirming breast augmentation differs from traditional breast augmentation in several important ways. Transfeminine patients often require adjustments to the inframammary fold to properly center implants behind the nipple-areola complex. Implant size, projection, and pocket placement are carefully chosen to complement each patient’s chest shape and transition goals. Dr. Weinman uses these techniques—refined under the mentorship of Dr. Mangubat—to create natural-looking, feminine contours tailored to each individual's anatomy and desired outcome.
Whether a patient is beginning their medical transition or refining their body after years on hormone therapy, Dr. Weinman creates a collaborative plan that prioritizes safety, harmony, and gender affirmation.
Gender-Affirming Body Sculpting
In addition to breast augmentation, Dr. Weinman offers body contouring procedures designed to enhance traditionally feminine curves or reduce masculine features. These surgeries are fully customized and may include:
- Liposuction: Fat is gently removed from areas like the flanks, abdomen, back, or thighs to create a more sculpted appearance.
- Fat Transfer: Harvested fat can be re-injected into areas like the hips, buttocks, or thighs to enhance feminine curves or correct volume loss.
These procedures are especially beneficial for transfeminine individuals seeking to amplify curves that may not fully develop through hormone therapy alone.
