General Practitioners

• Medical Weight Loss
  It's important to keep in mind, though, that CoolSculpting is not appropriate for all-over, large-volume weight loss. In fact, it's best not to think of CoolSculpting as a weight loss procedure. Instead, the best candidates for CoolSculpting treatments are at or near their ideal weights but still have localized areas of excess fat. CoolSculpting can reduce the size of these bulges for a sleeker, more streamlined physique.
• Pediatric Care
  Each dermatologist at our Houston practice is certified by the American Board of Dermatology (ABD). Founded in 1932, the board has always standardized and improved dermatological techniques around the country. Over time, the board has expanded to its present size of 17 directors who oversee its functions. The ABD is an independent, objective organization, and it is not affiliated with pharmaceutical companies, government, or educational institutions. The ABD is under the oversight of the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS), which regulates 24 member boards in fields including plastic surgery, pediatrics, and emergency medicine.

Gynecologists

• Pregnancy

Internists

• Internal Medicine
  Dr. Bruce earned her undergraduate degree from Rice University before enrolling at Baylor College of Medicine, where she obtained her medical degree. Following her graduation from med school, Dr. Bruce completed an internal medicine internship. She then chose to specialize in dermatology and competed a 3-year residency at Baylor.

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  Lifted brows, a defined jaw line, a sleeker neck, and a smooth, even-toned décolletage give you a more youthful, refreshed look. However, as we age, gravity causes the brows to descend, and the eyes appear smaller. Crow's feet appear and the skin under the eyes becomes thinner and laxer. On the lower face, aging causes facial fat pads to descend creating the lines between the nose and the mouth (nasolabial folds) and at the corners of the mouth (marionette lines). Jowls can form, the neck can sag, and years of cumulative sun damage can cause lines on the chest. We offer an innovative, non-surgical treatment called Ultherapy® in Houston, TX, that uses ultrasound waves to trigger your body's own regenerative process of building new collagen to lift and tighten your skin - gradually and naturally.

Surgeons

• General Surgery
  Dr. Couvillion has been practicing since 2018. A graduate of Louisiana State University School of Medicine, he completed General Surgery residency training at Tulane University, one of the oldest general surgery training programs in the country. Before starting medical school, he received a Masters of Science in Cell and Molecular Biology from Tulane University. Dr. Couvillion is a double board certified surgeon, both by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and by the American Board of Surgery. He completed his 3-year fellowship in plastic surgery at Houston Methodist. Dr. Couvillion specializes in face lift surgery and other facial rejuvenation procedures such as neck lift and blepharoplasty, as well as a range of body procedures including mommy makeovers, breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction, tummy tucks and overall body contouring.

Plastic Surgeons

• Botox
  As our patients from Houston, Texas, know, wrinkles are some of the earliest signs of facial aging. They can give away your age and make you look angry or tired, no matter how young, happy, or energetic you may feel inside. Instead of just accepting your wrinkles, you can smooth them out with injections of safe, effective BOTOX Cosmetic or Dysport® at Suzanne Bruce and Associates. Since 2009, we’ve been the #1 provider of BOTOX in the Houston metro area.
• Brow Lift
  BOTOX is useful for a variety of cosmetic concerns, including reducing the appearance of vertical neck bands, relaxing a gummy smile, and raising the outer eyebrow area for a subtle, nonsurgical brow lift. We also use BOTOX injections to control excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) of the underarms. It works by temporarily blocking the signal that stimulates the creation of underarm sweat.
• Liposuction
  A well-defined chin and jawline is one of the most desirable facial features for men and women. In the past, someone with a double chin caused by stubborn fat needed liposuction to reduce it. That has changed with the FDA approval of KYBELLA, available in Houston, TX, from the skin specialists at Suzanne Bruce and Associates. KYBELLA is a breakthrough non-surgical treatment that can significantly reduce the appearance of a double chin with a series of injections.
• Breast Augmentation
• Breast Lift
• Plastic Surgery
  The Ulthera System is an FDA-cleared, clinically proven device. In the FDA clinical trial, 9 out of 10 patients had a noticeable, significant lift of their brows. Patients reported firmer skin in other areas of the face and neck as well. With Ultherapy, we can focus ultrasound energy to deep tissues, to the same levels that are lifted and tightened during plastic surgery, while leaving surrounding tissue unaffected. The energy causes immediate contraction of the skin and soft tissues and stimulation of new collagen growth gradually over the next 3 to 6 months to give support and a natural lift to the skin.
• Face Lift
   As a leader for many years now in non-invasive skin tightening in Houston, we believe this latest technological advance gets us closer to achieving the lift that can be seen with surgery. Ultherapy is not a facelift, but in our opinion it's the closest thing we've seen, and it's a natural, no-downtime way to give your skin a lift from the inside out.
• Neck Lift
• Blepharoplasty
• Body Contouring
  You can also combine a CoolSculpting treatment with our other body contouring options, including VelaShape™ and Thermage®.
• Laser Resurfacing
  Absolutely. It's fairly common to use multiple fillers during a session, and they can also be combined with other procedures for enhanced results. Our favorites include KYBELLA®, an injectable product which can reduce a double chin, and Fraxel® laser resurfacing. Your practitioner offers you more personalized recommendations during your consultation.
• Moles
• Dermabrasion

• Skin Care
  Many of the first signs of aging on the face are obvious, like fine lines and wrinkles. Volume loss is a subtle sign that can make you look tired and drawn, and cause your cheeks to sag. Our highly skilled staff of board-certified dermatologists and skin care professionals have years of collective experience administering injectable fillers to ensure you achieve attractive, natural-looking results. For years, we've been the number one injector of both JUVÉDERM® XC and JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC in the Houston area. Additionally, we are also 1 of only 2 Platinum Level Sculptra® Aesthetic providers in Houston.
• Microdermabrasion
  At Suzanne Bruce and Associates, our main objectives include reversing sun damage, reducing the signs of aging, and, of course, helping you look and feel your best! Clear+Brilliant® falls under all of these categories. It is a fractional laser skin resurfacing treatment performed at our Houston office on the face, neck, chest, arms, or hands. This treatment creates microchannels in the skin, allowing it to heal itself from the inside out, and falls in between a more aggressive Fraxel re:store®, and a milder treatment like a microdermabrasion. On its own, Clear+Brilliant is considered a fantastic and easy starter laser for patients who are just beginning to see the effects of aging. It is also often recommended as maintenance for some of the more aggressive lasers recommended in the practice.
