Breast Reduction

This procedure is used to remove excess fat, tissue, and skin from the breasts. Women with large breasts opt for breast reduction surgery to achieve the size proportionate to the body and ease discomfort.

Breast Reconstruction

The procedure is performed for rebuilding the shape and look of breasts, usually in women who have had surgery to treat breast cancer. There are different types of breast reconstruction surgery. Breasts can be rebuilt either with implants (saline or silicone), autologous tissue (tissue from other body parts), or both methods at once.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Mastopexy or breast lift is a procedure in which women’s breasts are lifted and contoured for a more balanced, youthful appearance. It is performed in patients who have issues with sagging breasts and should modify their size and shape.

Breast Augmentation

The goal of this procedure is to restore breast volume after weight loss or pregnancy, achieve a better contour, or improve natural breast asymmetry. Breast augmentation includes using breast implants or fat transfer.

Liposuction

This is a cosmetic procedure that removes fat in hips, belly, thigs, buttocks, back, arms, and under the chin to improve face shape. Liposuction is performed when patients can’t get rid of excess fat through diet and exercise. It is often combined with other procedures such as facelift, breast reduction, and tummy tuck.

Body Lift

A body lift improves the shape and tone of the underlying tissue that supports skin and fat. It removes excess sagging skin and fat that occurred due to aging, sun damage, pregnancy, and genetic factors in the abdominal area, buttocks, and thighs.

Mommy Makeover

This is a phrase that refers to a combination of body contouring procedures designed to address common issues in women who have been through pregnancy and breastfeeding. Mommy makeover usually includes breast augmentation, tummy tuck, and more.

Medial Thigh Lift

A medial thigh lift is meant to tighten skin and fat on the upper part of the inner thigh. By removing excess fat and skin, the procedure should improve the appearance of the upper, inner thigh.

Lateral Thigh Lift

Same as the above, outer thigh lift surgery is meant to remove fat and loose skin, only this time, the targeted region is in the outer thighs.

Belt Lipectomy

A belt lipectomy includes a tummy tuck as one component. It is done to reshape the patient’s abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks.

Face Lift (Rhytidectomy)

A facelift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that gives the face a younger appearance. It reduces sagging or folds of skin on the cheeks and jawline, and overall, contours the face to achieve an enhanced shape.

Brow Lifts

This is a simple cosmetic procedure that improves the appearance of the forehead, eyebrows, and the area around the eyes. During a brow lift, the skin and soft tissue in the forehead and above the eyebrows are lifted. The procedure usually follows other surgeries such as rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, or facelift.

Rhinoplasty

Widely known as a nose job, rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to fix an issue and improve the functionality of the nose due to trauma, birth defect, or change in the overall shape and look of the nose.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid surgery)

This plastic surgery corrects defects, deformities, and disfigurations of the eyelids. Blepharoplasty is a simple way to restore upper or lower lids when they start giving way to fatigue, and loss of collagen and fat. It also gives a more youthful appearance to the patients.

Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)

A tummy tuck is a procedure used to make the abdomen thinner and more firm. It involves removing the excess skin and fat from the abdomen and strengthening muscles in the abdominal wall for enhanced aesthetic appearance.

Body Contouring

This is a popular surgical procedure performed on patients after they have undergone major weight loss. Body contouring removes excess skin and fat that is hard to get rid of in regular ways (e.g. diet and exercise). It also improves the shape of the underlying support tissue.

FAQ’s about Cosmetic Surgery

What is the difference between plastic and cosmetic surgery?

Plastic surgery includes procedures performed to restore, reconstruct, and alter facial and body defects due to birth disorders, trauma, burns, and disease. It is meant to correct dysfunctional areas of the body and bring them back to the natural condition. On the other hand, cosmetic surgery is focused on enhancing the human face and body through surgery and other medical techniques for cosmetic rather than medical reasons.

What are the most common cosmetic surgeries?

The most common cosmetic procedures, both highly invasive and minimally-invasive, go as follows:

What does a cosmetic surgeon do?

A cosmetic surgeon is a licensed medical doctor trained to enhance physical appearance through surgical and medical techniques. Cosmetic surgery is performed on all areas of the head, neck, and body. As plastic surgeons, cosmetic surgeons use certain methods (invasive or minimally-invasive) to achieve desired aesthetic results.

How to find a good cosmetic surgeon?

The chances are, there’s at least one highly-qualified cosmetic surgeon near your location that can provide the services you need. Thanks to the internet, you can google “cosmetic surgeon near me” and get the results of all doctors in your proximity. However, we don’t recommend you to go for the first one that seems adequate. Do your research before laying trust in a particular surgeon. As we mentioned above, you want to have a reliable doctor who can provide desired results and ensure your safety.

What should I look for when choosing a plastic surgeon?

First and foremost, make sure a plastic surgeon is board-certified. Doctors who are certified have had at least six years of surgical training and devoted two or three years to plastic surgery per se. During this time, they have passed rigorous testing to demonstrate their skills. Thus, a board-certified surgeon is qualified to perform your procedure safely and accurately. Also, the surgeon’s operating facility should be accredited.

Secondly, consider how comfortable you are with a particular surgeon. You want to connect with a doctor who understands your wishes and makes you feel relaxed and confident. If you feel comfortable with a surgeon, you can expect great results from cosmetic surgery, that’s for sure.
