- BotoxThe skin’s aging is in large part due to our particular genetics, but smoking, poor diet and excessive exposure to the sun and the elements can also play a role. Luckily, injectables such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau can radically improve our aesthetic presentation, and do so without surgery, incisions or anesthesia.
- Brow LiftComplications relating to brow lift incisions, even incisions from endoscopic or "minimal incision" brow lifts, are frequent, with hair loss around the scar being a serious problem. From an aesthetic standpoint, Dr. Rapaport prefers even a slightly low brow to the complications and risks noted above.
- Eyelid SurgeryUpper eyelid surgery is performed primarily to remove the excess skin or drooping skin that may have formed around the upper eyelids due to the aging process. Heredity, sun damage and smoking can also hasten these changes. Younger individuals may also elect to have this procedure done to eliminate puffiness of the eyes from congenital excess fatty tissue deposits.
- LiposuctionLiposuction remains the most commonly performed cosmetic surgical procedure in the United States and one of the most popular procedures performed by New York plastic surgeon Dr. David Rapaport. Dr. Rapaport has performed
- Breast AugmentationBoard Certified Plastic Surgeon, David P. Rapaport, MD has over 25 years of experience working with both silicone breast implants and saline breast implants. The NYC plastic surgeon has been a participant in the FDA Adjunct Study, which permitted silicone breast augmentation under certain, limited circumstances. Since late 2006, when the FDA gave its approval for the use of Silicone Breast Implants for cosmetic augmentation in all women over the age of 22, Dr. Rapaport’s use of silicone implants has been consistently rising.
- Breast ReductionBreast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) surgery reduces the size of, and improves the shape of, overly large breasts. Breast reduction surgery not only improves the cosmetic appearance of heavy, sagging breasts, but also alleviates the physical discomfort caused by disproportionately large breasts.
- Breast LiftA mastopexy or breast lift procedure addresses breast sagging, asymmetry, loss of shape or volume, and stretched or drooping areolae, to give breasts an overall more attractive and youthful appearance. While aging and heredity are perhaps the most common causes of sagging breasts, other factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and weight fluctuations can also contribute.
- RhinoplastyChin enhancement is a commonly performed procedure on both men and women, young and old. The chin is an important facial landmark that is fundamental in defining a person’s profile. As we age, the chin helps to visually distinguish the face from the neck. Particularly in younger patients, chin enhancement is commonly combined with rhinoplasty, to help balance facial proportions.

- Face LiftBoard certified plastic surgeon, David P. Rapaport, MD, is one of Manhattan, New York’s most sought after facelift surgeons. His nuanced, skillful approach creates unrivaled results that appear spontaneously beautiful and natural.
- Neck LiftToday, more people than ever before are shying away from invasive procedures like the facelift and neck lift and are instead opting to choose non-surgical procedures that allow them to return to work quickly without downtime or discomfort. InMode’s Morpheus8 is a brand new, cutting edge solution for treating skin laxity while removing excess fat. It utilizes safe, advanced, fractional radiofrequency energy (RF) to remodel the skin on subdermal levels, revitalizing the underlying scaffolding of the complexion while triggering the reintroduction of collagen fibers for increased volume and suppleness.
- BlepharoplastyUpper blepharoplasty surgery can dramatically improve common problem areas such as excess skin on the upper eyelid itself (referred to as "hooding"). It can also greatly improve puffiness in the inner corner and middle of the upper eyelid caused by herniation (pushing forward) of fat in that area.
- AbdominoplastyThe tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is the mainstay of operations to correct the changes that occur in the abdomen after pregnancy. Again, the exact kind of abdominoplasty that is best for you will depend on your physical examination. Dr. Rapaport offers arguably the best tummy tuck NYC has to offer.
- Breast SurgeryFor those undergoing breast surgery, a supportive garment may be prescribed. Patients undergoing an abdominoplasty may also need the support of a compression garment, as this works to hold the results in place during recovery. Drains may be utilized for 1-2 weeks to draw away excess fluids as you heal.
- Scar RevisionIn adults, scars generally take one full year to mature. Therefore, scar revision surgery is usually recommended for scars that are one year or more in age. In children, scars frequently take as long as two years to mature. Therefore, it is usually appropriate to wait longer before revising scars on children. One must also consider the child’s stage of growth when properly strategizing the timing of scar revision. One may choose to wait until after a growth spurt before revising a child’s scar, which will clearly be subjected to the tension of that growth spurt.
- Lip Augmentation
- Body ContouringBodyTite is a minimally invasive system for body contouring that can deliver results previously only achieved through excisional procedures (skin removal, which entails significant scarring). Now, no long scars are required in order to see an improvement in loose or hanging skin. BodyTite harnesses the power of radiofrequency to tighten loose tissues and skin. It is powered by directional bipolar radiofrequency energy that results in three-dimensional tissue remodeling by heating collagen and through fat coagulation. The coagulation of fat using RF-induced heat results in radiofrequency assisted lipolysis (RFAL) – killing fat at the same time as it tightens the fibers in between and around the fat cells.
- Laser ResurfacingDawn Rother is a licensed medical aesthetician with over three years of experience in the aesthetic industry, specializing in skincare, laser resurfacing and Coolsculpting treatments.
- GynecomastiaGynecomastia is defined as a feminine-like appearance of the male breasts, meaning, more specifically, enlargement of the male breast. Gynecomastia can be related to hormones. While common in one’s teenage years, gynecomastia frequently resolves on its own as one grows into adulthood.
- MolesMole removal surgery and recovery generally is simple. If the depth of the mole merits an excision, stitches are used for closure and are left in for approximately one week. If the mole is superficial, it may be shaved, and no stitch will be required. In these cases, the mole removal site will form a scab that will fall off within a week. Once the scab comes off, the underling area is usually a pink or reddish color, which may take several weeks to blend in with the surrounding skin. Regardless of the technique used for mole removal, the area should be kept clean and protected from the sun with a high SPF.
- Cosmetic SurgeryIt is important to understand that breast lift surgery is one of the most technically demanding cosmetic surgery procedures. Therefore, one must be very careful in selecting an experienced and thorough plastic surgeon with whom one feels comfortable to perform one’s breast lift procedure.
- Chin AugmentationChin implants are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, and are manufactured from both solid and semi-solid materials. During your consultation, Dr. Rapaport will discuss your options for chin augmentation and will work with you to determine which implant best suits your facial proportions. With our surgeons’ expertise, chin augmentation surgery creates a dramatic improvement to the overall facial aesthetics while still appearing entirely natural.
- Forehead LiftLuckily there is an excellent solution. A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, improves wrinkle lines, raises sagging eyebrows, and reduces upper eyelid hooding, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance. After a brow lift, clients appear well rested, more pleasant in affect, and self-confidence is gracefully restored.

- Acne Treatment
- LesionsDepending on your Fractora treatment regimen, you can expect to have between 1-6 sessions. Visible results can be seen immediately, but typically after two weeks the most noticeable results appear. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment. Since patient downtime is minimal, makeup can be applied 1 to 2 days after the treatment. Patients should expect to see micro lesions a few days after treatment and slight redness for up to 1 week, depending on treatment parameters.
- Chemical PeelsChemical Peels: Chemical peels use different chemical solutions to remove the damaged outer layers of skin to improve texture, pigmentation, fine lines/wrinkles, and improve acne. Chemical peels range from light, to medium, to moderate in intensity and depth.
- Skin CareClear and Brilliant: Clear + Brilliant is a gentle laser skin care treatment, clinically proven to help fight and prevent the effects of aging skin. This powerful fractional resurfacing procedure improves tone, texture and pore size appearance, but does not impact your social life, as there is essentially no downtime.
- MicrodermabrasionMicrodermabrasion: Microdermabrasion utilizes a coarse diamond tip wand with light suction to gently remove the outer surface layer of skin. Microdermabrasion is a great treatment for removing blackheads and retexturizing skin. This can be done as either a prepping treatment for a peel or as part of a facial before an event. We love that there’s no downtime!
