Cosmetic surgery is performed to reshape normal structures of the body in order to improve the patient's appearance and self-esteem. There are many different types of cosmetic surgery. For more information about any of these procedures, please contact the doctors from Dramatic Makeover today.

Breast Augmentation
You dream of a figure that makes you feel more feminine. Whether it’s the result of nature, weight loss, pregnancy, or a reconstructive need, breast augmentation can help you achieve the fuller, natural-looking figure you desire.

Breast Reduction
If you have a bust-line that is larger than you would like, you’re probably familiar with the discomfort of back and neck pain and skin irritation. You may also suffer from breathing difficulties and skin indentations or discoloration from bra straps. Vigorous activities such as exercise can be uncomfortable, and you may likely feel very self-concious about your figure. Breast reduction can make you look and feel better.

Facelift
With a face lift, we can surgically remove excess skin and fat, tighten your muscles, and redrape the skin to lie more smoothly over your face and neck. Typically, incisions are hidden within the hairline, behind the ear, and/or under the chin. Incision sites may vary according to the patient's hairstyle.

Following your surgery, you'll need to keep your head elevated for a day or two. Bandages will be applied and a small tube may be present to help drain excess fluid. Most bandages, sutures, and tubes will be removed within the first week. Your skin will be sensitive, and expect some bruising and swelling. However, this should subside within the first two weeks. Any strenuous activity should be avoided for at least two weeks. You can most likely return to work in ten to 14 days.

Face lifts can be performed at almost any age, although they are most effective in those with good skin elasticity. As with any surgical procedure, there are risks involved, such as infection or bleeding. Hematomas, small areas of blood collecting under the surface of the skin, and nerve injury are also possible. However, complications are rare.

Laser Skin Resurfacing
During laser skin resurfacing, a gentle laser light smooths the lines around the mouth and eyes, softening deeper frown lines, and removing skin that has suffered the damaging effects of sun and wind. Acne scars and scars from surgery can also be reduced. New, healthy skin is revealed, leaving you with a smooth, fresh appearance.

After the procedure, for a short time you'll need to care for your face with cool compresses and a special cleansing regimen. But you will experience very little to no discomfort. Some redness may last for up to three months, but it can easily be concealed with makeup. We'll also provide you with tips and advice on how to do this.

Complete recovery takes about two to four weeks. Laser skin rejuvenation can also be performed in conjunction with other procedures, such as a face lift or brow lift.

Botox™
A safe, effective way to temporarily remove wrinkles, Botox ™ involves the use of Botulinum toxin to eliminate or reduce frown lines, crow's-feet, laugh lines, and other wrinkles, provided they are not caused by sun damage, scarring, or trauma.

When your facial muscles contract, wrinkles are created. Botox ™ works by reducing the relaxing muscles, which results in "plumped" skin and a smoother, nonwrinkled appearance.

There is minimal discomfort with the Botox ™ procedure. Anesthetics are not necessary, and you can return to your daily activities almost immediately. Treatment takes approximately five days to reach its full effect, and results last for up to six months.

Eyelift Surgery
The eyes are the windows to the soul. They can reflect every feeling and emotion you have, contributing a great deal to your facial expressions. As such, over time, the skin of the eyelids will stretch, muscles can weaken, and pouches of fat can appear. The drooping eyelids, undereye bags, and sagging brow that can result from this can add years to your face and make you appear tired. A happier, more energetic look is waiting for you.

Restylane Therapy
With Restylane therapy, cosmetic surgeons can replenish your skins natural collagen to reduce or remove frown lines, lip lines, crow's-feet, worry lines, and deep facial lines. You will notice results immediately.

Restylane can also be used to help you achieve fuller, more dramatic lips. Restylane is injected into your lips, making them appear plumper. The effects will usually last for 6-9 months.

Clinical studies performed worldwide indicate that Restylane is very safe, effective and long lasting. We expect that this product will quickly become one of the most popular products used by cosmetic surgeons.

Liposuction
You eat healthy, you exercise, but you just can’t get rid of those unwanted areas of fat. If you have fat deposits that are unresponsive to diet and exercise, a cosmetic surgeon can sculpt the figure you desire with liposuction.

Cosmetic Surgeons can remove excess curves around the hips, thighs, abdomen, buttocks, and knees. Liposuction can also be performed on areas such as the upper arm, chin, neck, cheeks, and back. Please keep in mind that liposuction is not meant to be a substitute for weight loss. Nor will it eliminate cellulite. You'll need to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle in order to keep your remaining fat cells from expanding.

What liposuction can do is remove small areas of fat you have been unable to reduce through diet and exercise, resulting in a shapelier, better-proportioned body.

Tummy Tuck
You long for tight abs and a washboard stomach. But no matter how many sit-ups you do, no matter how carefully you watch your diet, it never seems to get as flat as you want it to. The circumstances may be beyond your control – weak muscles, weight changes, pregnancy, even the simple fact of genetics can cause your stomach to protrude. If the skin and muscles have been stretched, diet and exercise may not be able to help you achieve the look you desire. A tummy tuck can do all of this with one operation.

Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is best performed after the growth of the bone is complete, usually in the mid-teens. The bone and cartilage of your nose will be resculpted, and the remaining skin will be redraped over your new, attractive nose.

Rhinoplasty is best performed on those who have reached or passed their mid-teens and wish to improve the shape of their nose. If you are physically and emotionally healthy, and realistic in your expectations, this procedure may be right for you.

Lower Body Lift
You have lost the excess weight, but now you have excess skin. No matter what exercises you have tried and no matter what creams you have used - the loose, sagging tissue doesn't improve in appearance. With this important new procedure we can completely reshape your lower half. Cosmetic Surgeons can dramatically improve your body contour by removing and tightening the excess skin. A lower body lift is a revolutionary new procedure that addresses the lower half of the body and can be done all at once (inner thigh lift with outer thigh/buttock lift), or it can be combined with a tummy tuck. Liposuction can be incorporated if you have isolated deposits of fat.

Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty involves reshaping your abdominals by tightening the muscles and removing excess tissue and skin through abdominoplasty. This procedure is not a substitute for weight loss, but can reshape a flatter, smoother stomach that has been unresponsive to diet or exercise.
