We understand exactly what you're going through.

 Our eyes are often the first thing that people notice about us. Beauty and youth are often associated with well positioned, smooth, bright and friendly eyes.  As we age, the delicate skin around our eyes can sag and show puffiness, wrinkles and sun damage.  Our eyes appear tired, and the eyelid skin can become loose and heavy.  During surgery, an incision is made along the fold of the upper eyelid, excess skin, muscle and fat is removed or redistributed.  The incision is then closed.  On the lower lid, the surgeon makes an incision just below the lashes in your eye's natural crease or inside the lower lid. The excess fat, muscle and sagging skin is removed or redistributed and the incision is closed.

Post Care: 

When anesthesia wears off , your vision will be blurry and your eyes may feel tight, swollen and be covered in gauze for a few days.  It is vitally important in the first 24-48 hours to limit activity and rest as much as possible with your head elevated while sleeping.  We will remind you to try not to turn your head too much to either side and sleep on your back in a semi propped up position.  We will help administer eye drops, manage discomfort and help prepare cold compresses as directed by your surgeon. The eyes are such delicate areas that need to be treated with care to ensure they heal perfectly.  It can be a scary and tricky time.  Let us help take care of you so can rest and your eyes can look their best 

Your nose is in the center of your face and has a large impact on your facial symmetry and overall profile. A nose job (rhinoplasty) is surgery on the nose to improve aesthetic appearance, such as narrowing the width, reshaping the cartilage, or reducing the overall size. It can also be done to improve function (correct breathing problems), or to fix structural issues from trauma or birth defects. During surgery the surgeon can change the shape of your nasal bones or cartilage in several ways, depending on how much needs to be removed or added to your nose structure. For small changes, the surgeon may use cartilage taken from deeper inside your nose or from your ear. For larger changes, the surgeon can use cartilage from your rib, implants or bone from other parts of your body. After these changes are made, the surgeon places the skin and tissue back and stitches the incisions in your nose. 

Post Care: 

After surgery, there may be a plastic or metal splint on your nose that may stay in place for up to a week. They may also place nasal packs or splints inside your nostrils to stabilize your septum (the part of your nose between your nostrils).  It is important for us to take as many precautions as we can to help reduce your swelling. Overactivity tends to worsen the swelling, so our goal is to help you rest and take it easy. It is common for people to be forgetful after surgery so we will remind you to keep your head elevated above your heart as much as possible to reduce the bleeding and swelling, We have seen memory lapses, impaired judgment, and slow reaction time as common after effects from the medications used during surgery. We will keep a close eye out for you and remind you to stay in position while sleeping. 

Your nose will most likely be swollen and might be packed with cotton which leaves you feeling congested. You might also have absorbable sutures, meaning they’ll dissolve and won’t require removal. If the sutures aren’t absorbable, your surgeon may want to see you again to have them taken out.

It is also common to experience drainage and bleeding after surgery. We will help manage the drip pad (a piece of gauze taped below your nose, to absorb blood and mucus). We will follow your doctor's instructions for the drip pads in addition to how to manage your pain, puffiness and headaches that you might experience after surgery. 

We will also help you:

• Avoid any excessive activities
• Blow your nose gently if needed
• Prepare proper foods to limit excessive chewing
• Avoid extreme laughing, smiling, or other facial expressions that cause strain on your healing tissues
• Pull clothing over your head
• Gently brush your teeth
• Update loved ones inquiring about your progress while you rest 

Rhinoplasty can also affect the area around your eyes.  You might have temporary numbness, swelling, or discoloration around your eyelids for a few days that we can help manage by gently applying cold compresses or ice packs as directed by your surgeon. Rhinoplasty is a common procedure but is delicate in it's healing process. We will help bridge the gap between surgery and your ideal recovery

As the years pass, you may start to notice signs of aging on your face such as wrinkles, fine lines, and loose skin. A facelift (rhytidectomy) is a skin tightening surgery that addresses sagging skin by tightening the face muscles and tissues. Excess is removed and the skin is lifted, repositioned and tightened.  A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift is a cosmetic procedure in which the skin and tissue of the forehead is raised to smooth and improve the appearance of the face.

During a facelift or brow lift, a flap of skin on each side of the face is pulled back, and the connective tissue below the skin is surgically redistributed and tightened to reveal a more youthful shape.  

 Post Care:

After surgery your doctor may leave a temporary drain in place.  Your incisions might have skin glue or absorbable sutures, meaning they’ll dissolve and won’t require removal.  If the sutures aren’t absorbable, your surgeon may want to see you again to have them taken out. With surgery, also comes swelling.  Overactivity tends to worsen the swelling, so our goal is to help you rest and take it easy.  It is also common for people to be forgetful after surgery so we will  remind you to keep your head elevated above your heart as much as possible to reduce the bleeding and swelling,  In addition, we have seen memory lapses, impaired judgment, and slowed reaction time as common after effects from the medications used during surgery.  We will keep a close eye out for these additional things and alert your doctor if anything out of the ordinary appears.

 Your face will be swollen and it is also common to experience drainage and bleeding after surgery.  We will help manage the drainage tube, bleeding and dressings.  We will follow your doctor's instructions on how to manage your pain, puffiness and headaches that you might be experiencing.

Over time, aging and environmental factors can result in lost volume, reduced definition and a sunken appearance. A facial fat transfer (also known as fat grafting, fat injections, or lipofilling), can restore a more youthful look, smooth fine lines and wrinkles and improve overall contour.   

Fat transfer is a surgical procedure that uses your own body fat from your hips, thighs, or stomach to add or restore volume to your face. It’s can be used to restore sunken cheeks and hollow looking eyes, plump thin lips, and smooth deep nasolabial folds and marionette lines.  

Post Care:

The main issue with fat transfer surgery is swelling.  Even minimal transfer under the eye area can create a somewhat distorted look.  There will be swelling and bruising after surgery, both in the face and in the area from where the fat was harvested.    We will follow your doctor's instructions on how to manage your swelling, puffiness and bruising that you might be experiencing.  

After your fat transfer surgery, we will help you: 

• Use ice packs liberally in the areas of the face where fat was transplanted to minimize bruising and swelling
• Use ice packs to the body area from where the fat was harvested
• Take your pain medication as directed by your surgeon

Breast Augmentation  (also known as mammoplasty) may be performed to  add volume and curves, even out asymmetry or restore breasts after pregnancy or aging.  It is accomplished by surgically inserting an implant either beneath the breast tissue or beneath the chest wall  or by injecting your fat into your breasts.  During the surgery, it is common for an incision to be made in the fold under the breast, at the bottom edge of the areola, or in the armpit.  The implant is then inserted behind the natural breast tissue or beneath the muscles of the chest wall.  The incisions are then closed with sutures, skin adhesive or surgical tape with drains that can help the incisions heal. 

Post Care: 

During recovery, your breasts will be wrapped in gauze dressings and an elastic bandage or support bra will control swelling and support the breasts.  In addition, small temporary drains may be placed in existing incisions beneath the skin to remove any excess blood or fluid.

We will help you: 

 • Take measure to reduce swelling and pain 

• Manage the surgical site and drainage 

• Manage your surgical bra that must be kept on at all times 

• Help you sleep in a sitting position. This will reduce swelling

• Get plenty of rest

• Prepare balanced meals 

• Take your pain medication as directed by your surgeon.  

Breast Implants have been used by women worldwide for many years. It is commonly needed when the outside shell of the implant has broken down causing it to leak and the scar tissue around the implant to harden over time causing pain and discomfort. It is not clear what could be making women sick, but many of them noticed their health improved after the removal of their implants. Breast implant illness has not been diagnosed as an official medical condition and studies are ongoing.

When the breasts change shape, their structures (skin and tissue) become lax. The effects of gravity also have an impact, causing the breasts to drop over time. The amount of sagging of a woman’s breasts can vary depending on genetics, exercise activity, and skin elasticity. Breast reduction/lift surgery can counteract these issues by repositioning the breasts to a higher, more youthful position.     

Breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty), is performed to remove excess breast fat, glandular tissue and/or skin to balance breast size with your body. It can also be done to alleviate the discomfort associated with excessively large breasts (macromastia). Typically, women who are candidates for this procedure have physical symptoms related to the weight or shape of their breasts. These symptoms include back pain, neck pain, and bra strap grooves in the shoulders. An incision is made around the nipple and areola accompanied by a vertical incision below the areola with or without a horizontal incision made in the crease below the breast. For reduction of very large breasts, in some cases the nipple and areola may need to be surgically removed and reapplied as a graft. If breast size is largely due to fatty tissue and excess skin is not a factor, liposuction alone may be used in the procedure for breast reduction

Post Care: 

When your breast reduction procedure is complete, dressings or bandages will be applied to the incisions. An elastic bandage or support bra may be worn to control swelling and support the breasts. In addition a small, thin tube may be temporarily placed under the skin to drain any excess blood or fluid that may collect.  

We will help you: 

 • Take measures  to reduce swelling and pain

• Manage the surgical site and drainage 

• Manage your surgical bra that must be kept on at all times

 • Help you sleep in a sitting position. This will reduce swelling

Breast reconstructive surgery can help repair and reform areas of the body affected by disease, injury, congenital defects, developmental abnormalities, trauma, infection, tumors, etc.  Breast reconstruction surgery also involves recreating the breast form following its removal due to cancer. The creation of a long-lasting, symmetrical, and beautiful breast helps restore confidence, femininity, and self-esteem in women following breast cancer treatment. The main goal of breast reconstruction is to restore one or both breasts to near normal shape, appearance, symmetry, and size following mastectomy, lumpectomy or other trauma. 

Breast reconstruction generally falls into two categories: implant based reconstruction or flap reconstruction. Implant reconstruction relies on breast implants to help form a new breast mound, while flap reconstruction uses the patient’s own tissue from another part of the body to form a new breast. These procedures involve the use of breast implants, your own tissue, or a combination of both. 

Post Care: 

During recovery, your breasts will be wrapped in gauze dressings and an elastic bandage or support bra will control swelling and support the breasts. In addition, small temporary drains may be placed in existing incisions beneath the skin to remove any excess blood or fluid.
