Neck lift surgery is an extensive procedure that could drastically enhance a patient’s facial appearance, but many people overlook the possibility of combining treatments. During consultations, when patients discuss their treatment options, they sometimes ask, “Can a neck lift and injectables be used together?”

However, combing a neck lift with injectables could provide additional benefits while also prolonging enhancements. Therefore, in most cases, patients may combine injectable treatments with neck lift surgery but should […]

The nose is a crucial feature of the face that plays a significant role in facial symmetry. Its size, shape, width, and protrusion will affect whether it remains proportional to other facial features, which improves facial symmetry.

Struggling with stubborn abdominal fat, damaged abdominal muscles, and loose skin is challenging, but undergoing a tummy tuck might be the solution you are looking for. Two procedure options target different areas of the abdomen for distinct concerns. However, this may leave you wondering if a full or mini tummy tuck is best for you, which depends on a few factors.
Most importantly, your ideal treatment areas for a tummy tuck will influence which procedure is best. For example, a full tummy tuck targets the entire abdomen, while a mini tummy tuck explicitly focuses on areas below the belly button. Contact […]
The results of plastic surgery could be life-changing but the procedures themselves can be physically demanding in the short-term.

Recovery after the procedure takes up to six weeks, with some side effects lingering for up to three months. Further, your recovery […]
My partner and I recently made the decision to stop seeing unvaccinated patients in our aesthetic surgery practice in Washington, DC. Ironically, we announced our decision a day before Mayor Bill DeBlasio announced that New York City would require vaccination in order to attend restaurants, gyms and theater.
This decision was not an easy one and it was made for several reasons. To begin with, our main priority is to protect the health and well-being of our patients and staff. Additionally, it was to protect the unvaccinated who would be seen in our office for purely elective cosmetic procedures and MedSpa […]
