A more refined arm contour - visible in just one week! ⚡️

These results come from laser liposuction of the arms, performed comfortably in office under local anesthesia. Even at only seven days post treatment, you can see smoother definition with minimal swelling and bruising.

The benefit to having laser liposuction done versus traditional arm surgery is there are no stitches or scarring, which can be significant and visible on the arm. Also, because the laser gently heats the tissue before fat removal, recovery is quicker - and the benefits continue. Over the next several months, collagen and elastin production will further tighten and improve the skin’s quality.

A subtle, elegant transformation with long-lasting results. Send us a message or contact our office to learn whether this treatment may be right for you!

A refined, natural neck profile - achieved with a neck lift performed entirely under local anesthesia.

One of the reasons patient seek us out is our ability to perform surgical procedures without sedation anesthesia. For the right candidate, this approach can mean less downtime, faster recovery, and a more comfortable overall experience. All while achieving the same beautifully precise results.

These photos are taken just several days apart, demonstrating how there is minimal bruising and swelling.

While we do offer many non-invasive and minimally invasive options for mild to moderate laxity, there are times when the most effective and longest lasting solution is a surgical neck lift. It allows us to address deeper structural laxity and redefine the jawline in a multi-layer approach: by tightening the muscles & skin.

If you’re considering your options for neck rejuvenation and want to understand what would work best for you, we’re here to guide you through every step.

This can be performed on the back, abdomen, waist, arms and thighs. Since we use LipoAI to melt the fat prior to removal, there is very little bruising or swelling.

The laser also stimulates collagen production and skin tightening to further enhance the results. Laser lipo is performed under local anesthesia in the office, with most patients returning to normal activities the next day!
