Services
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery alleviates chronic back pain and physical restrictions caused by overly large breasts. This procedure reshapes breast tissue to create a more proportionate silhouette while improving posture and circulation. Ideal candidates include women seeking relief from physical discomfort and those wanting enhanced self-confidence through improved body proportions. Our surgeons employ advanced techniques to minimize scarring while achieving natural-looking results that maintain nipple sensation and breastfeeding capability when possible.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using saline or silicone implants. This procedure addresses asymmetry, volume loss post-pregnancy, or desire for enhanced proportions. We utilize Mentor implants, recognized for their quality and safety, with options for submuscular or subglandular placement. Patients benefit from improved self-esteem and clothing fit while maintaining natural breast tissue characteristics through precise implant selection and surgical technique.
Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty removes excess abdominal skin and tightens underlying muscles, particularly effective for post-weight-loss or post-pregnancy body contouring. The procedure may include liposuction for optimal contouring, with options for traditional or limited-incision techniques. Ideal candidates include those with skin laxity unresponsive to diet and exercise, offering long-lasting results when combined with stable weight maintenance.
Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses visible aging signs in the face and neck through skin tightening and fat redistribution. The procedure targets jowls, deep nasolabial folds, and neck banding while preserving natural facial expressions. Advanced techniques allow for outpatient treatment with minimal scarring, delivering rejuvenated appearance that maintains individual facial character without the 'pulled' look associated with older surgical methods.
Scar Revisions
Scar revision techniques improve the appearance of post-trauma, surgical, or acne-related scars. Our surgeons employ layered closure methods, laser treatments, and tissue rearrangement to minimize scar visibility. Treatment plans consider scar maturity and location, with options for corticosteroid injections or surgical excision. The goal is to create less conspicuous scarring that blends naturally with surrounding skin texture and tone.
