Most of us know what it’s like to have unwanted fat deposits somewhere on our bodies. Through a process known as fat transfer, also called fat injections, some of that unwanted tissue can actually be moved from one part of your body to another. Fat injections can be applied to the face or the body, helping you achieve some of your most closely held aesthetic goals.
But how do fat injections work, exactly? And are you a good candidate for this procedure? Here’s a quick guide to the fat transfer process.
What is Fat Transfer?
Also known as microlipo, fat transfer involves the […]
As your body ages, your skin loses some of its elasticity. In other words, it doesn’t “snap” back into place quite as easily when you pinch it or pull it, and gravity’s effects become more and more visible. This can result in some sagging, some drooping, and some jowling, to say nothing or prominent wrinkles and creases.
There are a number of treatment options for skin laxity, including surgical and non-surgical methods alike. As you consider non-surgical options, we recommend that you check out laser skin tightening. Here’s a quick overview of this popular procedure.

As we get older, our skin loses some of its innate elasticity. This is really just a fancy way of saying that, if you pull on your skin, it does not snap back into place quite as quickly. One of the results of this is that your skin may start to sag, particularly around the cheeks, under the chin, or at the top of the neck. The loss of skin elasticity is also one of the causes of wrinkles and fine lines.
The good news is that there are a number of non-invasive and minimally invasive skin tightening treatments that can […]

Out of all the imperfections that can compromise your skin and mar your pristine complexion, acne and acne scars are among the most frustrating. Active acne outbreaks can be devastating to your self-confidence, and while there are plenty of treatments to keep outbreaks under control, they don’t necessarily work overnight.

Over time, our skin tends to lose some of its natural radiance, glow, and smooth texture. This may be a result of imperfections, such as acne scarring or hyperpigmentation. It may also be a simple result of the natural aging process. Regardless, it can take a toll on your self-confidence, making you wish there was a way to reclaim that youthful luster.
One option to consider is microneedling, a minimally invasive procedure that can rejuvenate the skin and minimize some of those imperfections. Microneedling can be incredibly effective, either on its own or in conjunction with other treatments. We’re happy to […]

The skin is naturally elastic. You can pull it or pinch it, and it generally snaps back into place. This is what gives the skin its firm, tight, youthful appearance. But as you know, it doesn’t remain that way forever. As our body ages, the skin loses some of its elasticity, which is why getting older usually means developing wrinkles, jowls, and/or sagging skin.
There are plenty of options for addressing these common concerns, including surgical and non-surgical treatments alike. One of the treatments we’re most excited about in the new year is Morpheus8, a minimally invasive option that can provide […]
It’s not uncommon to feel self-conscious about the shape, size, or appearance of your nose. There are countless men and women who wish they could alter their nasal structure, or who simply wish their nose was more proportional with the rest of their facial features. Unsurprisingly, rhinoplasty (also known as the “nose job”) has historically been one of the most popular plastic surgeries, and now so has its counterpart, the non-surgical option, liquid rhinoplasty. More recently, there has emerged a new way to address issues with the nose. It’s called liquid rhinoplasty, and for many patients, it represents a great […]
For many men, hair loss is simply a fact of life. Research shows that an overwhelming majority of men will experience hair loss sooner or later, and it can start as soon as the late teens or early twenties.
While men can lose their hair for many different reasons, the most common culprit is a condition known as male pattern baldness (as it’s sometimes called, male pattern hair loss). In fact, more than 90 percent of all male hair loss cases stem from this condition.
The bad news is that male pattern hair loss can’t truly be cured. The good news is […]
