Facialplasty (facelift) is a procedure designed to counteract the effects of skin aging as exhibited in the face.

Eyelids (eyelidplasty or blepharoplasty) involves removal of the excess, redundant and sagging skin in the upper and lower eyelids, together with any "bags" that may be present.

Nasalplasty (rhinoplasty) involves making changes in the bony and cartilaginous framework of the nose through incisions made inside the nose, thereby changing its shape.

Liposuction provides a permanent re-contour of the human body by "de-bulking" the fatty layer beneath the skin, and then allowing the skin to gradually contract.

Breast Augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty) involves the placement of an implant, usually filled with saline (salt water), and usually encased in a silicone membrane, either under or over the pectoral muscle, but in all cases, under the breast gland itself.

Breast Reduction is designed to accomplish two major goals: to make breasts smaller, and to lift them.

Brow Lift surgery elevates dragging eyebrows and removes wrinkles of the forehead and glabella (space between the eyebrows). The eyes suddenly appear awake, open, and vibrant.

Breast Lift surgery improves the appearance of sagging breasts by elevating the nipple and removing excess, "stretched-out" skin. Occasionally, an implant is needed to fill out the upper pole of the breasts. The goal is to reshape the breasts and elevate the nipples to a more youthful location.

Breast Reconstruction is usually done for acquired absence of breast tissue due to mastectomy. Options include implants or tissue taken from other parts of the body, as is the case with a TRAM flap.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is one of the more powerful techniques in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. This procedure reshapes the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat and tightening the abdominal musculature. If done with a breast lift, this procedure leads to incredible changes in a woman's body shape (a.k.a "mommy makeover").

Brachioplasty involves the removal of excess fat and skin of the upper arm surgically.

Facial Peels are designed to improve fine wrinkles of the face, especially around the lower eyelids and mouth.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is perhaps the most significant advance in nonsurgical aesthetic medicine to date. BOTOX® Cosmetic injections remove wrinkles of various areas of the face and are relatively painless.

Hyaluronic Acid is a grouping of injectable fillers that has revolutionized the "in-office" treatment of deeper wrinkles. A variety of products are available (Juvederm®, Captique, Restylane®, etc.) each with its own unique characteristics but all providing excellent results.

Radiesse® is a longer lasting filler for deeper wrinkles.

Skin Lesion Treatments are available to eliminate the appearance of skin lesions that develop as a result of sun exposure, age, and other environmental factors. Choosing the appropriate treatment for excision and reconstruction is crucial to achieving the best result.

Hand Surgery seeks to restore normal hand function by repair or reconstruction of injury or chronic disease.
