Question: I would love to know if there is any type of surgery that can reduce the size of my breasts without submitting to a full breast reduction! I am not considered a candidate by my Insurance Company for the Breast Reduction surgery but it is something that has been an issue for me personally.

Question: Will liposuction of the neck give me a nice tight looking neck or do I need a neck lift?

If your neck has fatty deposits between the skin and the muscles and your overlying skin has good to excellent elasticity, properly performed minimally invasive liposuction of the neck will give you a smooth tight neck with youthful contours, without cutting skin and tightening muscles. Patients of all ages with good to excellent skin elasticity […]
Question: What does a typical abdominoplasty consultation entail?
Answer: A comprehensive consultation will start with you detailing your medical and surgical history. After a thorough exam and discussion of the procedures that are available we will together decide what operation is the safest and will meet your expectations. During this consultation I will discuss the risks and benefits and alternatives of all the safe procedures that are available.

Women’s sexual health is an important aspect of an overall healthy lifestyle. As more women learn about the functional and cosmetic benefits of a labiaplasty, the popularity of this procedure continues to grow. The two folds of skin or “lips” surrounding the vaginal opening are called the labia minora. As women age or post-pregnancy, the labia can become elongated and asymmetric.

According to a survey by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS), over two thirds of consumers (68%) are bothered by submental fullness. An area that is often resistant to diet, a “double chin” can distract from an otherwise youthful appearance as well as lend a heavier […]
