Services
Arm Lift
Arm lift surgery removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms to restore a toned appearance. Dr. Capla combines liposculpting with precise skin excision to create natural contours while minimizing scarring. Ideal for patients with sagging skin from aging, genetics, or weight loss, this procedure enhances arm definition and improves clothing fit.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using implants or fat transfer techniques. Dr. Capla employs modern implant technology and innovative sizing methods, including temporary saline injections, to help patients visualize outcomes. This procedure addresses underdevelopment, post-pregnancy changes, or asymmetry while maintaining natural proportions and patient comfort.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits to improve body contours using advanced VASER technology. Dr. Capla's technique focuses on creating smooth transitions while preserving surrounding tissues. This minimally invasive procedure targets areas like the abdomen, thighs, and back, offering rapid recovery and enhanced body definition for patients maintaining healthy lifestyles.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery flattens the abdomen by removing excess skin and tightening underlying muscles. Dr. Capla's approach creates a natural waistline while addressing diastasis recti from pregnancy or weight fluctuations. This comprehensive procedure combines liposuction with precise tissue repositioning to achieve long-lasting, functional improvements in abdominal contour.
Breast Lift
Breast lift surgery elevates sagging breasts through strategic skin removal and tissue repositioning. Dr. Capla creates internal support structures while minimizing visible scarring. This procedure restores youthful breast contours, often combined with implant placement or reduction of enlarged areolas, to enhance both appearance and patient confidence.

Questions
What makes Dr. Capla specialize in post-weight loss surgery?
Dr. Capla completed a specialized fellowship in body contouring after weight loss at NYU, making her one of few surgeons with this specific expertise. Her training focuses on addressing unique challenges from massive weight loss, including skin laxity and body disproportion.
How does the VASER liposuction technology work?
VASER liposuction uses ultrasound energy to break up fat cells while preserving surrounding tissues. This technology enables more precise contouring and smoother results, particularly effective for difficult areas like the back and male chest, with faster recovery times.
What is the recovery process like for body contouring?
Recovery varies by procedure but typically includes 1-2 weeks of limited activity. The private surgical center provides personalized post-op care with private-duty nurses. Most patients return to light work within 2 weeks and full activity within 6 weeks, following specific recovery protocols.
How are personalized treatment plans developed?
During consultations, Dr. Capla evaluates individual anatomy, goals, and medical history. Using temporary saline injections for breast procedures and 3D imaging, she helps patients visualize outcomes while explaining all options to make informed decisions about their surgical plans.
What safety measures are in place for surgeries?
The AAAASF-accredited surgical center maintains hospital-level safety standards with board-certified anesthesiologists, emergency equipment, and strict sterilization protocols. All staff maintain current credentials with regular quality assessments ensuring patient safety remains the top priority.
