- Ear SurgerySurgery of the ear, also known as otoplasty, is a procedure that helps reduce protrusion of the ear away from the head. Most often, ear surgery is performed on children between the ages of four to fourteen. Ears that “stick out” are often the source of teasing and ridicule in young children. This teasing can have a devastating effect on the child’s psyche.
- Reconstructive SurgeryReconstructive surgery refers to procedures performed to correct trauma, developmental defects, infection, or disease. Reconstructive procedures focus on improving function or normalizing appearance of the patient.

- Brow LiftEyelid surgery (known as blepharoplasty) is a corrective procedure that can reduce dark circles or “bags” under the eyes, remove excess wrinkles, and provide a more youthful appearance to the eyes. One of the first things people notice about you is your eyes. During the aging process, wrinkles, lines, and puffiness contribute to a tired or aged look. The blepharoplasty surgery is often performed in conjunction with other facial procedures such as a face lift or brow lift.
- Eyelid SurgeryEyelid surgery is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic operations. It's done by a wide variety of surgeons to improve the excess skin that hangs over the upper eyelids. At ASA, we emphasize that the upper eyelid should never be evaluated for problems by itself: the appearance of the upper eyelid is heavily dependent on the position of the eybrow, and there are many factors to consider when preparing for surgery.
- LiposuctionLiposuction is a body-sculpting procedure to remove fat that is unresponsive to dieting and exercising. This procedure can be applied to nearly any area of the body and is commonly used on multiple areas during an operation. Liposuction results in a slimmer and better proportioned figure. Liposuction is used effectively to reduce love handles, saddlebags, a double-chin, a bulge around the waistline, or other unsightly fatty deposits in order to develop a better shape and create a more beautiful body.
- Breast AugmentationDr. Day did an amazing job on my breast augmentation 2 years ago! He explained everything very clearly and they really took care of me after surgery!
- Breast ReductionBreast lifts are frequently requested operations that have many features in common with Breast Reduction Surgery. The principle difference between the procedures is that breast reduction is designed to remove volume from the breast, while Mastopexy is designed to redistribute or add to existing volume, tighten the skin envelope of the breast, and change the position of the nipple.
- Breast LiftA breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, is a procedure to raise and reshape sagging breasts. As a woman ages, skin loses some elasticity which can cause the breasts to lose their natural shape and firmness. This procedure is designed to elevate the breasts and give them a more youthful appearance. A breast lift may also be completed in conjunction with breast enlargement surgery (augmentation).
- RhinoplastyThe rhinoplasty procedure lasts from one to three hours. The surgeon may elect to utilize either local or general anesthesia, depending upon the complexity of the operation.
- Breast ReconstructionBreast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical enhancement procedure to accentuate the size and shape of a woman's breasts. While breast augmentation will make the breasts larger, the surgery will not move the breasts closer together or lift sagging breasts. Breast augmentation is tremendous help to patients who desire a fuller profile, who have lost breast volume due to pregnancy or nursing, or who have undergone breast reconstruction and want to gain a more natural look again.

- Face LiftA Facelift (Rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure designed to smooth and firm the skin, providing a fresh and youthful appearance. Throughout one’s life, the sun’s radiation, stress, gravity, and other factors cause the skin to sag and fit more loosely. Areas of the face and neck, and in particular around the jaw line, are especially prone to the aging process. Though these changes are gradual, wrinkles and other signs of aging can make individuals “feel older” than they are.
- Blepharoplasty
- AbdominoplastySometimes simply dieting and exercising are not enough to take care of waistline problems. In such cases, a patient may wish to consider a tummy tuck (or abdominoplasty). A tummy tuck is the surgical removal of excess skin or fatty deposits from the abdomen, along with the repositioning of abdomen muscles into a tighter formation. This bodily enhancement procedure is designed for those who wish to have a flatter and tighter stomach. It is also helpful in remedying the vertical separation of abdomen muscles known as diastasis, which can occur following pregnancy.
- Nose SurgeryTo begin the surgery, tiny incisions are made which allow the surgeon to access the underlying nasal structure. Once the skin is opened, the cartilage and bone are reshaped to form the basis for the new look. Two basic methods are utilized for performing nose surgery. These methods are referred to as the ‘open’ and the ‘closed’ techniques. The open technique allows for maximum visibility and control over the procedure. The incision used in the open technique is placed in-between the nostrils on the columella (the medial nostril strip). In the closed technique, the incisions are internal and heal faster; however, there is less surgical control over the outcome. The physician can discuss which technique is best when the patient arrives for the initial consultation visit.

- OtoplastyEar surgery is commonly performed under general anesthesia for children and local anesthesia for adults. The standard otoplasty procedure brings the ears closer to the head. Otoplasty begins with an incision hidden in the crease behind the ear. This incision allows the cartilage located behind the ears to be reshaped in order to position them closer to the head. The procedure takes approximately one to two hours, depending upon the extent of surgery.
- Lip AugmentationLip augmentation is a procedure designed to make the lip or lips fuller, more youthful, and more sensuous in appearance. This procedure can also help to decrease the lines around the mouth known as “smoker’s lines” that wick lipstick.
- Body Contouring
- GynecomastiaGynecomastia is a medical condition indicating excessive breast tissue or fullness in men which can give male patients significant emotional and psychological issues. This is a common problem for patients who have lost weight and for adolescents. There are sometimes other causes as well, such as anabolic steroid use, marijuana use, genetic disorders, tumors, medications, and certain syndromes. Male breast reduction surgery is a medical treatment for gynecomastia which is one of the top sought out surgeries for men.
- Cosmetic SurgeryWhen it comes to what insurance covers cosmetic surgery, it is important to understand that your regular health insurance does not cover most procedures if they are only for cosmetic purposes. For example, cosmetic procedures like a tummy tuck, butt lift, and breast enhancement are typically not covered by insurance companies. If you are having a procedure that is only for cosmetic purposes, your health insurance is unlikely to cover any of the costs.

- Chemical PeelsA chemical peel is an aesthetic procedure performed to achieve better skin tone and to remove fine lines, especially on the face. The chemical solution removes outer layers of skin which are damaged by age, sun, acne, wrinkles, or pigmentation problems. Removing the outer skin prompts the body to generate a new layer of skin cells which are tainted by the previous skin condition. Chemical peels may not be appropriate for darker skin complexions.
