Whether your abdomen has been stretched out by pregnancy, you’re a cancer survivor who needs reconstructive surgery or you’re just looking to restore a youthful look, we can help. Learn more about our most popular plastic surgery procedures for the breasts, body and face.
Breast Augmentation
During a breast augmentation, our board-certified plastic surgeons use saline or gel-filled implants to increase breast size and achieve your desired look. With various breast implant sizes and profiles available, we personalize your procedure to match your aesthetic goals.
Breast Lift
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that raises and reshapes sagging breasts to create a more youthful, perky appearance. This surgery is perfect for women experiencing breast drooping due to aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding or significant weight loss. A breast lift can also be combined with augmentation for enhanced volume and lift.
Breast Reconstruction
Navigate your breast cancer recovery with confidence through breast reconstruction, restoring your natural appearance and supporting emotional healing after mastectomy. We offer personalized consultations to guide you through options tailored to your needs, helping you reclaim your body and confidence.
Tummy Tuck
Achieve a toned, sculpted midsection with a tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty. During a tummy tuck, our board-certified plastic surgeons remove excess skin and fat while tightening abdominal muscles for a flatter, smoother look. Ideal for addressing stretched skin from pregnancy or significant weight loss, our tummy tuck procedures are tailored to your goals.

Thinking about plastic surgery? We’ve got answers
Explore our frequently asked questions to learn more about procedures, recovery, safety and what to expect.
Am I a good candidate for plastic surgery?
Ideal candidates are healthy, non-smokers with realistic expectations. Conditions like diabetes may require evaluation. During your consultation, our plastic surgeons assess your health and goals to ensure safe, effective outcomes. Book a consultation today.
How long do plastic surgery results last?
The duration of plastic surgery results varies by procedure.
- Breast augmentations may last 10-20 years, though implants may need replacement.
- Facelifts typically last 7-10 years, with aging continuing naturally.
- Liposuction permanently removes fat cells, but weight gain can affect results.
- Non-surgical procedures like Botox® or fillers last 3-24 months, depending on the type.
Factors like lifestyle, aging, and skin type also influence longevity. Your surgeon can discuss this in more detail during your consultation, based on the desired procedure and your goals.
What are the risks of plastic surgery?
Risks include infection, scarring, bleeding or anesthesia complications. Procedure-specific risks, like implant issues in breast augmentation, may apply. Most procedures will leave some scars. However, our surgeons reduce scarring by making cuts in hidden areas, like natural skin folds. Scar visibility depends on skin type and healing. Risks, scarring and your personalized plan will be discussed during your consultation.
What happens during a plastic surgery consultation?
Your surgeon will evaluate your health, discuss goals, and explain procedures, risks, and recovery. Prepare questions and share your medical history. Key questions include:
- What are the potential risks and complications of this procedure?
- What results can I realistically expect, and how long will they last?
- What is the recovery process like, and how long will it take? What type of anesthesia will be used?
Bring a list of questions to your consultation to make sure you address all concerns.
