Botox Treatment
Botox injections are used to treat the fine lines and wrinkles that can
appear in the early stages of aging. Derived from a bacterium (botulinum
toxin), Botox works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles in the precise
area in which it is injected.
Breast Enhancement (Augmentation Mammoplasty)
This cosmetic surgery enhances breast-size using inflatable implants filled
with saline. A surgical incision is made under the breast, around the
areola, or in the armpit and a space is created for the implant either
behind the breast tissue or between the breast and the chest wall.
Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
This surgical procedure raises and reshapes drooping breasts by removing
excess skin and repositioning remaining tissue and nipples. See Breast
Lift
Breast Reduction (Male) (Gynecomastia)
Gynecomastia is a condition of overdevelopment of the male breast, resulting
in an excess size of the breast. There may be an excess of breast tissue,
fatty tissue, skin, or a combination. See Male
Breast Reduction
Buccal Pad Removal
Buccal fat pads are found above the jawline close to the corner of the
mouth. Cosmetic surgeons can remove these pads to give a more contoured
'waif-type'look.
Buttock Lift (Back Lipectomy/Butt Lift)
As is the case with a thigh lift, a buttock lift can address the problems
of excess skin and fat that can accumulate in the buttocks area. Side
butt lifts are called flankplasty. See Liposuction
on Butt
