Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using implants. Ideal for women seeking volume restoration post-pregnancy, symmetry correction, or aesthetic enhancement. Dr. Cusick tailors implant type, size, and placement to align with your anatomy and goals. Results offer improved proportions and self-confidence, with options for saline or silicone implants. Recovery typically involves 1-2 weeks of downtime, ensuring long-term satisfaction with proper post-operative care.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck removes excess abdominal skin and tightens muscles, addressing post-pregnancy or weight-loss changes. Dr. Cusick offers full and mini tummy tucks to suit your needs. The procedure flattens the abdomen, reduces stretch marks below the navel, and restores a toned appearance. Recovery spans 2-6 weeks, with permanent results maintained through a healthy lifestyle. Ideal candidates are at a stable weight and non-smokers.
Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover combines procedures like breast augmentation, lift, or reduction with a tummy tuck to restore pre-pregnancy contours. Dr. Cusick customizes each plan to address individual concerns, from sagging breasts to abdominal laxity. Recovery lasts 4-6 weeks, with full results visible after 3-6 months. This transformative option is ideal for mothers seeking comprehensive rejuvenation and renewed confidence in their postpartum bodies.
Liposuction
Liposuction targets stubborn fat deposits in areas like the abdomen, thighs, and arms. Best suited for patients near their ideal weight, it refines contours unresponsive to diet and exercise. Dr. Cusick uses advanced techniques to ensure smooth results and minimal downtime. Recovery involves 1-2 weeks of limited activity, with final outcomes emerging after swelling subsides. Maintains results through consistent fitness and nutrition.
Facial Plastic Surgery
Facial plastic surgery addresses aging signs or enhances features through procedures like facelifts, rhinoplasty, and eyelid surgery. Dr. Cusick focuses on natural results, restoring youthful balance or correcting asymmetry. Techniques prioritize minimal scarring and functional improvement, with recovery varying by procedure. Ideal for patients seeking refreshed appearances or corrective solutions, ensuring long-term satisfaction through meticulous planning and execution.
