Surgery
of the Abdomen: Abdominoplasty
A flat stomach is important for a physically fit
appearance. However, a healthy diet and regular
abdominal workouts can sometimes do little to eliminate
accumulations of excess fat and loose, sagging skin in
the abdominal area. If you are bothered by these
appearance problems, abdominoplasty (also called tummy
tuck) may be a good choice for you.

Breast
Lift: Mastopexy
A breast lift can rejuvenate your figure by restoring
the position and shape that is often lost as gravity takes
its toll. In breast lift surgery, also called mastopexy,
the breasts are raised, the nipples are repositioned and
the areolas may be reduced in size. If you have lost
breast volume over the years and you want more fullness,
implants may be inserted during the breast lift surgery
to increase breast size.

Facelift:
Rhytidectomy
Some of the most visible signs of aging first appear on
the face. Although the changes appear gradually, there
may come a day when you look in the mirror and decide
that the face you see doesn't reflect the way you feel
about yourself. If you'd like to look as good as you
feel, a face lift can help. Also known as rhytidectomy,
a facelift smoothes the loose skin on your face and neck,
tightens underlying tissues and removes excess fat. As a
result, your face will appear firmer and fresher.

lift: Browlift

furrowed brow can make a serene face appear upset or
concerned. Frown lines between the eyebrows can produce
an angry look. A dropping brow can create a perpetually
tired or sad look.

Gastric Bypass Plastic Surgery
Bariatric surgery is becoming an increasingly popular procedure in the United States. As techniques have improved, the safety of the procedure has improved as well. Patients often lose over 100 pounds (and often much more) over a one to two year period following the surgery. While the overall health of the patient is dramatically improved with the massive weight loss, one of the unfortunate byproducts of the procedure is the development of loose skin.

Spider
Veins: Sclerotherapy and Vascular Laser
Millions of women are bothered by spider veins - those
small yet unsightly clusters of red, blue or purple
veins that most commonly appear on the thighs, calves
and ankles. Today, spider veins can be treated with a
combination of sclerotherapy and a vascular laser that
specifically targets the veins and causes them to seal
so that the blood stops flowing though them. They
subsequently fade. The procedure may also
remedy the bothersome symptoms associated with spider
veins, including aching, burning, swelling and night
cramps.
