- Medical Weight LossTired of those loose flabby upper arms? Want to be able to go sleeveless? Then an arm lift may be just the help you need. An arm lift, or Brachioplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to reduce, reshape and contour the upper arm from the elbow to the underarm area. This procedure has become more popular since the advent of weight loss procedures such as gastric bypass.
- Pediatric CareDr. Todd B. Koch, MD is a board-certified plastic surgeon. To reach this goal he has undergone a rigorous course of training. He completed his medical school education at the prestigious State University of New York at Buffalo. At the Millard Fillmore Hospital in Buffalo, New York, he trained for five years in a General Surgery Residency Program. During this time, he was exposed to all aspects of surgery including orthopedics, pediatrics, neurosurgery, urology, plastic and reconstructive, hand, and vascular. Broad training allowed him to develop his surgical skills and knowledge. After participating in all of these wonderfully exciting and stimulating areas, he decided upon plastic surgery as his calling.
- PregnancyWhether from age, lifestyle (such as poor diet), or life events (including pregnancy and childbirth or weight loss), many men and women develop sagging skin and/or excess fat in their bellies. This can be frustrating and embarrassing for people, even causing them to cover their midsections with baggy clothing or keeping them from participating in fun activities, like beach or pool days with friends.

- Breast AugmentationDissatisfaction with your breast augmentation can be the result of postoperative complications, a poorly performed surgery, or implant choices that don’t properly complement your body’s natural shape. Women who are dissatisfied with their breast augmentation may choose to replace implants that aren’t providing them with their ideal aesthetic. Schedule a Consultation
- Breast ReductionFor males who feel self-conscious about their appearance, breast reduction surgery can help. The procedure removes fat and glandular tissue from the breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a more pleasing contour of the chest.

- RhinoplastyRhinoplasty usually takes an hour or two, though more complicated procedures may take longer. This is an outpatient procedure and you can retire to the comfort of your home to convalesce. The surgery starts with the skin of the nose being separated from its supporting framework of the bone and cartilage, which is then sculpted to the desired shape. The skin is then redraped over the new framework. After the surgery is complete, a splint is then applied to help the nose maintain its new shape. If a Septoplasty is performed at the same time, a nasal pack or soft internal splint may be placed in the nostrils to stabilize the septum; this is the dividing wall between the air passages.
- Plastic SurgeryHis travels then took him to one of the most nationally recognized Plastic Surgery programs at the Medical College of Ohio in Toledo. There he spent two years learning his trade. This specialty training included reconstructive, cosmetic, maxillofacial, congenital, pediatric, hand, burns, tumor removal, microsurgery, head and neck, trauma and many other challenging surgical problems. The next 6 months were spent in a dedicated Hand Fellowship.
- Face LiftFacial aging is natural and genetically programmed into us. While taking care of your skin can prolong its youthful qualities, eventually everyone will suffer from lifelong environmental, stress, diet, routine, and genetic effects. Facial aging appears most commonly as sagging skin around the cheeks and jawline as well as fatty tissue around the jawline and neck. A facelift is designed to remove excess tissue and tighten muscles and skin to enhance and rejuvenate your facial contours. Schedule a Consultation

- AbdominoplastyYou will experience bruising, swelling, redness, and mild discomfort. A slight pressure on the chest is common after breast procedures. Compression garments are worn after abdominoplasty surgery to provide support and reduce bruising and swelling. You should limit your physical activity and rest in an upright position, but going for light walks is important for healthy circulation and healing.

- OtoplastyThe surgery is performed on an outpatient basis allowing you to return to the comfort of your own home. It generally takes around two hours. There are various techniques to accomplish the goals of the Otoplasty. With one of the more common techniques, the surgeon makes an incision in the back of the ear to expose the ear cartilage. Then the cartilage of the ear is sculpted to allow it to bend back toward the head. Stitches are used to maintain the new shape. Sometimes cartilage is removed from the ear to help create a more natural-looking contour.
- Lip AugmentationJUVÉDERM® XC can increase facial fullness when injected into moderate to severe facial wrinkles. This treatment is also ideal for lip augmentation. When injected into the lips, this hyaluronic acid filler increases the size and fullness of the upper and lower lip.
- Body ContouringDr. Koch uses an approach to correcting sagging skin and excess fat in the midsection that is different from the classic abdominoplasty, which only focuses on tightening muscles and removing excess abdominal skin. Lipoabdominoplasty is performed on an outpatient basis with general anesthesia, so you can feel comfortable knowing that you will not experience any pain or discomfort during your procedure. Unlike traditional abdominoplasty, Dr. Koch’s lipoabdominoplasty technique involves using liposuction to better enhance your body contouring results.
