Your Clinical Care Team

Our experienced aesthetic surgeons specialize in facial plastic surgery (facelift, browlift, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, etc.) and body contouring procedures (breast surgery, abdominoplasty, liposuction, etc.). Complementary therapies such as skin care, botox, soft tissue fillers and microdermabrasion are also available.

Aesthetic surgery is an elective procedure that demands a serious, studied approach with attention to detail. All surgery has risks. It is our goal to minimize these risks as much as possible. We are committed to delivering the best possible surgical result. Our physicians are not only trained in how to perform these surgeries, but also teach the art of Cosmetic Surgery to future Plastic Surgeons. Our focus is to make this a personal, caring, safe, and positive experience. 

At your initial consultation, we will focus on listening to your goals and expectations as well as conduct an examination. We will then discuss whether we share the same vision of your outcome and how we can achieve the desired result.
