Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast Augmentation enhances breast size and shape using saline or silicone implants. This procedure addresses volume loss from childbirth, weight changes, or aging while creating balanced proportions. Dr. Morea customizes implant selection based on individual anatomy and aesthetic goals, with options for placement above or below the muscle. His 18+ years of experience ensures natural-looking results that boost self-confidence and body image.
Facial Rejuvenation
Facial Rejuvenation procedures restore youthful contours through surgical techniques like facelifts, brow lifts, and eyelid surgery. These treatments address sagging skin, wrinkles, and volume loss caused by aging or genetics. Dr. Morea's approach preserves natural facial expressions while creating refreshed appearances. Patients benefit from his dual expertise in aesthetic principles and functional anatomy for long-lasting, harmonious results.
Body Contouring
Body Contouring addresses loose skin and fat deposits through procedures like abdominoplasty and liposuction. Ideal for post-pregnancy or post-weight loss patients, these surgeries reshape areas including the abdomen, thighs, and arms. Dr. Morea combines muscle tightening with skin removal for comprehensive transformations. His experience with complex cases ensures optimal functional and cosmetic outcomes.
Injectables
Injectables like Botox and Restylane provide non-surgical facial rejuvenation by reducing wrinkles and restoring volume. These treatments address early aging signs for patients seeking minimal downtime. Dr. Morea personally administers all injections using his surgical expertise to ensure natural results. Treatments can complement surgical procedures or serve as standalone maintenance options for younger patients.
Breast Revision
Breast Revision corrects complications from prior surgeries including implant malposition, capsular contracture, or deflation. This complex procedure requires specialized knowledge to achieve balanced, natural outcomes. Dr. Morea's extensive experience with revision cases, including patients referred from other practices, ensures effective solutions for challenging deformities. His approach prioritizes both functional improvement and aesthetic harmony.
