Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure, performed to add shape and volume to the chest. Silicone and saline breast implants are available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, allowing each augmentation procedure to achieve a woman’s desired appearance and natural-looking physical proportions.
Breast Implant Exchange
There are times when a woman may decide that her particular breast implants no longer fit her look or lifestyle. In this instance, a breast implant exchange can give the woman an opportunity to swap out her current implants for newer ones that are either larger, smaller, or a different style.
Breast Implant Revision
Although rare, complications can occur after a breast augmentation procedure, such as capsular contracture, ‘bottoming out’, or breast asymmetry. A breast implant revision is a unique surgical procedure performed to correct breast augmentation issues, ensuring a safe and aesthetically pleasing result.
Breast Lift
A mastopexy, or breast lift, is a surgical procedure designed to lift sagging breast tissue to a higher position on the chest. By removing the lax skin, and when needed, reshaping and repositioning the nipple/areola, a more youthful breast is achieved.
Breast Reduction
Large, pendulous breasts can cause physical discomfort and emotional pain. The breast reduction is a surgical procedure designed to reduce excessive fat or glandular tissue, creating a chest that is proportionate to the woman’s body type.
Gynecomastia
Large male breasts, a condition known as gynecomastia, is a common problem that can occur at any age. A male breast reduction, including liposuction or tissue excision, can be performed to successfully flatten and smooth the chest for a more desirable appearance.
Brachioplasty
Weight fluctuations, age, and genetics can cause excessive amounts of lax tissue to accumulate along the upper arms, sometimes called bingo wings or bat wings. Using an incision, running from the elbow to the axilla, excess skin and fat is removed to create a sculpted, slender upper arm.
Back Lift
The back lift is a surgical procedure, created to slim and sculpt the back for a more attractive figure. An upper back lift will eliminate excess fat and tissue from the bra line, while a lower back lift will excise lax skin and fat from the lower back, while also lifting the buttocks.
Body Lift
The body lift is a combination surgical procedure, created to eliminate excess, lax skin and fatty tissue that cannot be addressed with weight loss or exercise. An excellent option for patients who have been through a large weight loss, a custom-tailored body lift may include a tummy tuck, Brachioplasty, back lift, or thigh lift.
Hyperhidrosis
Botox Cosmetic is not only for wrinkles; Botulinum Toxin type A can also be used to temporarily put an end to excessive sweating, a condition known as hyperhidrosis. Several small, meticulously placed injections can stop underarm sweating for six months to one year.
Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian Butt Lift utilizes the patient’s own fatty tissue to create a fuller, rounder bottom. Taking tissue from a donor area, such as the abdomen, living fat cells are processed and then reinjected into the buttocks to achieve a predetermined shape, contour, and lift.

Taking only 35 minutes, CoolSculpting’s unique set of applicators can address isolated areas of stubborn fat almost anywhere, including under the chin, on the upper arms, abdomen, thighs, hips, buttocks, and across male breasts.
Fat Transfer
A fat transfer uses a patient’s own fatty tissue, extracted through liposuction, to add contour and definition elsewhere on the body. A fat transfer can be used to smooth facial lines, sculpt the jawline, shape breasts, plump aging hands, and create symmetry in the calves.
Labia Reduction
Long, misshapen labia tissue can cause discomfort under clothing, pain during intercourse, and embarrassment in intimate situations. A labia reduction, or labiaplasty, will eliminate excess labia tissue, creating an aesthetically pleasing appearance for a woman’s genitalia.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal can safely and permanently eliminate unwanted hair on the face, body, and bikini area. A series of six to eight 30-minute laser sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart, is often required for optimal hair removal.
Liposuction

Mommy Makeover
A Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures, each designed to address the normal changes that can occur after having children. A Mommy Makeover generally consists of a breast augmentation, liposuction, and tummy tuck, although additional techniques can be added to meet the unique needs of the individual.
Tummy Tuck
An abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure designed to lift and flatten the abdomen by eliminating drooping, lax tissue. Through a thin incision, running from hip to hip, the excess fat and skin will be excised; the remaining tissues are then pulled taut, strengthening the abdomen and providing a more attractive physical contour.
Vaginoplasty
With age, and after the trauma of childbirth, the vaginal muscles may lose their elasticity, decreasing sensations during intercourse, causing tampons to slide out of position, and in some cases, resulting in stress incontinence. A vaginoplasty will eliminate this stretched tissue, tightening the vaginal muscles to restore a woman’s confidence.
Blepharoplasty
An eyelid lift, also known as a blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to eliminate lax, sagging tissue along the upper and lower eyelid. As the excess tissue is excised and lifted, the eyes will look brighter, more open, and more youthful.
Brow Lift
Sometimes referred to as a forehead lift, the browlift is designed to eliminate the weight of sagging, drooping forehead tissue from the brow line. The surgical procedure will eliminate deep forehead creases and lift the eyebrows, giving the face a happier, more rested appearance.
Buccal Fat Removal
Unwanted fullness in the lower cheeks may give the lower face a round, cherubic look, sometimes referred to as ‘chipmunk cheeks’. Through a small incision, made inside the mouth, the buccal fat pad can be removed from the masseter muscle, creating a more sculpted cheek and mature appearance.

Facelift
A rhytidectomy, or facelift, is a surgical procedure used to lift sagging tissue and tighten lax facial muscles. Depending on the individual patient’s needs, there are a variety of different facelift techniques that can be performed, including a short scar facelift, a mid-facelift, or a full facelift.
Fat Transfer
A fat transfer, also called fat grafting, can be used to create contour and volume for almost any area, including the cheeks, jawline, breasts, buttocks, and calves. Using liposuction, fat cells are extracted from a donor area, processed, and reinjected to create a long-lasting shape and symmetry.
Neck Lift
The normal aging process, coupled with weight fluctuations and genetics, can ultimately cause the delicate skin on the neck to become lax and crepey. A neck lift can involve excision of sagging skin, tightening of the platysmal bands, and liposuction to create a lifted, more youthful neckline.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance or the functionality of the nose. Using either an open or closed technique, a more propionate nose can be achieved, balancing the features and improving the appearance, while eliminating any breathing obstructions.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
A non-surgical; rhinoplasty utilizes soft tissue fillers to improve the appearance of the nose without the cost or risk of a surgical procedure. The technique can smooth bumps on the nasal bridge, create a straighter-looking nose, improve definition or add fullness, as well as disguise a small or bulbous nasal tip.
