Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation at Dermacare Plastic Surgery enhances breast size and shape using implants or fat transfer techniques. Dr. Rod customizes each procedure to align with individual body goals, offering silicone or gummy bear implants for natural results. Ideal candidates seek improved proportions after weight loss, pregnancy, or to address asymmetry. Recovery typically allows return to light activities within a week, with full results visible after swelling subsides. The practice emphasizes pre-operative education and post-operative care for optimal outcomes.
Facelift
Facelift surgery at Dermacare addresses signs of aging in the lower face, jawline, and neck. Dr. Rod employs advanced techniques to tighten muscles, remove excess skin, and restore youthful contours without a 'pulled' appearance. Candidates include those with jowls, deep creases, or neck laxity seeking long-lasting results. Most patients see improvements lasting 10-15 years. The practice provides detailed pre-op guidance and post-operative support, including scar management to ensure discreet healing.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck procedures at Dermacare remove excess skin and repair separated abdominal muscles, often following pregnancy or significant weight loss. Dr. Rod combines muscle tightening with liposuction for comprehensive contouring. Ideal candidates have stable weight and realistic expectations about scarring. Patients typically stay overnight for comfort and return to work within two weeks. The practice emphasizes long-term results through healthy lifestyle maintenance.
Botox
Botox injections temporarily relax facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles like frown lines and crow's feet. Administered by a registered nurse under Dr. Rod's supervision, treatments take minutes with results appearing in 3-7 days. Ideal for adults seeking non-surgical rejuvenation, effects last 3-6 months. The practice offers personalized touch-ups to maintain natural expressions while reducing visible aging signs.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal at Dermacare targets unwanted body hair using concentrated light absorbed by hair follicles. Suitable for multiple areas including bikini lines and backs, the treatment reduces regrowth over 6-8 sessions. Candidates avoid tanning pre-treatment for optimal results. Most experience minimal discomfort with topical numbing. The practice provides aftercare guidance to minimize side effects and ensure lasting smoothness.
