Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using saline or silicone implants. Ideal for patients seeking fuller contours, this procedure addresses asymmetry or volume loss. Our Miami practice offers personalized consultations to determine implant type, incision placement, and expected outcomes. With 24+ years of surgical expertise, we prioritize natural results and patient safety through advanced techniques.
Gender Affirmation Surgery
Gender affirmation surgery aligns physical appearance with gender identity through procedures like vaginoplasty, phalloplasty, and breast augmentation. Our Miami team provides compassionate, individualized care for transgender and non-binary patients. With specialized expertise in genital reconstruction, we focus on functional outcomes and emotional well-being, supported by 125+ peer-reviewed research contributions.
Gluteal Implants
Gluteal implants enhance buttock volume and shape using silicone implants for patients unsuitable for fat transfer. This procedure offers predictable, long-lasting results for individuals with minimal body fat. Our Miami surgeons customize implant size and placement to achieve balanced proportions, ensuring safety through meticulous preoperative planning and postoperative care protocols.
Breast Lift
Breast lift surgery restores youthful contours by removing excess skin and tightening breast tissue. Ideal for addressing sagging from aging, pregnancy, or weight loss, this procedure can be combined with implants for added volume. Our Miami practice offers tailored techniques like peri-areolar or anchor lifts, ensuring minimal scarring and natural-looking results.
Silicone Removal
Silicone removal addresses complications from prior injections through safe evacuation and tissue reconstruction. Our Miami specialists use advanced techniques to restore comfort and natural contours while minimizing scarring. This procedure prioritizes patient safety through thorough preoperative assessment and postoperative monitoring to ensure optimal healing outcomes.
