• Mohs Surgery

Plastic Surgeons

• Botox
  The second issue is lines created by repetitive expressions, such as the “11” lines (or scowl) between our eyebrows. The use of neuromodulators, such as Botox®, can greatly improve lines between the eyebrows, on the forehead, and crows feet.  This is a quick 10-15 minute treatment that many people do on a lunch break and consider a ‘no downtime’ procedure, as there is rarely much swelling or bruising.
• Cosmetic Surgery
  As such, we now require 24 hours advance notice for all canceled appointments. Failure to provide at least 24 hours notice of an appointment cancellation may result in a charge of $50 for an office visit, $100 for a scheduled surgery, and 50% of the fee for physician cosmetic surgery procedures. Thank you for your understanding and attention to this policy.
