Procedure Guide
Face Procedures
Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses signs of facial aging like wrinkles and sagging tissues. This procedure results in smoother skin and a more youthful appearance.
Mini Facelift
A mini facelift procedure is a less invasive version of a traditional facelift. This technique addresses wrinkles and sagging skin with smaller incisions and a shorter recovery.
Blepharoplasty
Eyelid lift surgery (blepharoplasty) restores youthfulness to the eyes. This surgery tightens skin and repositions fat pockets on the lower and upper eyelids.
Forehead Lift
A forehead lift (brow lift) rejuvenates the upper region of the face by lifting the eyebrows and smoothing the forehead. During the procedure, excess skin is removed and the tissues are tightened.
Endoscopic Forehead Lift
An endoscopic forehead/brow lift uses small incisions to lift the brow and reduce horizontal forehead creases. Because this uses an endoscope (a camera), you can return to your regular activities earlier than with traditional brow lift surgery.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty (nose surgery) enhances the shape and proportions of your nose. This procedure can address contour irregularities with the bridge, tip, or nostrils.
Facial Liposuction
Facial liposuction surgery removes fatty tissue from areas of the face that have excess. This procedure allows you to sculpt your facial contour and say goodbye to your baby fat.
Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)
An otoplasty procedure brings the ears closer to the head, which improves ear shape and reduces ear prominence.
Male Facial Procedures
Male facial plastic surgery procedures can reduce signs of aging while defining masculine facial contours. Dr. Wald can perform any facial plastic surgery for men who want to rejuvenate their appearance.
Breast Procedures
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation surgery uses breast implants to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. This can benefit women with naturally small breasts or women who have lost volume after pregnancy or weight fluctuations.
Breast Lift
A breast lift surgery elevates the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening glandular breast tissue. This procedure is common after pregnancy, weight loss, or the natural aging process.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery reduces the size of overly large breasts by removing excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin. This procedure restores physical comfort and aesthetic appeal to the breasts.
Breast Reconstruction
A breast reconstruction procedure restores the appearance of the breast(s) following mastectomy or lumpectomy. This reconstruction of the breasts can be accomplished with tissue flaps or implants.
Breast Revision
A breast revision procedure is a secondary surgery that removes and replaces damaged or unwanted breast implants. This procedure can be performed to repair a complication or to change breast aesthetics.
Breast Implant Removal
Breast implant removal surgery permanently removes your implants if you are no longer satisfied with them. This can be combined with a breast lift to restore your breast shape.
En Bloc Capsulectomy Surgery
En bloc capsulectomy surgery removes the breast implants and the surrounding scar tissue in one piece. This technique is common following an implant complication.
Inverted Nipple Treatment
Inverted nipple surgery corrects the projection of flat or inverted nipples by surgically releasing some of the nipple attachments.
Nipple and Areola Reduction
Large or stretched nipples and areolas can develop with pregnancy, weight gain, or age. A nipple and areola reduction surgery can reduce the size and projection of the areola-nipple complex.
Nipple and Areola Reconstruction
Nipple and areola reconstruction can be performed using one of two techniques. After a mastectomy, the nipple and areola can be reconstructed using a skin graft or tattoo.
Body Procedures
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery removes excess abdominal fat and skin and repairs weakened abdominal muscles to restore a firmer midsection.
Liposuction
Liposuction surgery removes unwanted fat pockets from the body. This body contouring procedure can sculpt the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, back, and arms.
Mommy Makeover
A Mommy Makeover surgery restores the shape of a woman’s body after the childbearing process. This combination procedure usually involves a breast enhancement procedure, a tummy tuck, and liposuction.
Surgery After Weight Loss
A post-bariatric procedure removes excess skin after massive weight loss. This surgery restores definition to your contour and enhances physical comfort.
Skin Cancer Treatment
Skin cancer usually develops in response to the skin’s overexposure to ultraviolet radiation. The most common types of skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. A skin cancer treatment may be a simple excision, or curettage and desiccation may be performed.
Tissue Expansion
A tissue expansion procedure is generally used as a reconstruction technique for stretching the existing skin. This allows the body to “grow” extra skin for reconstructing any part of the body.
Male Body Procedures
Male body surgeries improve masculine contours and enhance muscle definition. This can include liposuction, tummy tuck surgery, and various other procedures to sculpt a man’s body.
Endoscopic Plastic Surgery
Endoscopic procedures use an endoscope (a small camera) to perform an operation. This technique reduces incision size and results in less bleeding, bruising, and swelling.
