A facelift and neck lift (or mini lift) offers the ultimate in facial rejuvenation, delivering the most substantial and comprehensive solutions to facial aging. While these procedures can be performed individually, many patients choose to combine them for an impeccably natural and youthful appearance. Together, these treatments allow you to restore firmer-looking skin by eliminating sagging and wrinkles. Dr. Santosa uses small, strategically placed incisions and advanced techniques to preserve and polish your intrinsically beautiful appearance.
FaceliftA Mommy Makeover is a highly personalized combination of procedures designed to address signs of aging and changes to the body resulting from pregnancy and childbirth. Your treatment plan may include any of the procedures we offer. However, the most common components of a Mommy Makeover include breast augmentation or lift, facelift, liposuction, labiaplasty, and tummy tuck surgeries. Lift, smooth, and firm your face and body for restored confidence.
Mommy MakeoverEyelid surgery (or blepharoplasty) refines the contours around the eyes for a lifted, energized look. This procedure involves removing small sections of skin and tissue to eliminate eyelid sagging, wrinkles, and impairment to your field of vision. While this surgical procedure is minor, restoring the youthful appearance of your eyes can significantly impact your overall appearance. Rejuvenate this facial focal point for a bright, refreshed appearance with minimal downtime.
Eyelid SurgeryA breast lift is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and sometimes tissues to raise the breasts’ position on the chest wall for a perkier look. Though a breast lift does not enhance the breasts’ volume, it does create a fuller look and feel. A breast lift is ideal for patients with sagging or “deflated” breasts and can also be combined with breast augmentation for enhanced size and placement. Dr. Santosa designs each breast lift to complement the patient’s body proportions for the best, most natural outcome.
Breast LiftFuller breasts can help you feel more feminine and confident, as well as enhance your overall body proportions. Breast augmentation or breast implant surgery enhances the size and fullness of your breasts using implants made of silicone or saline. During the planning phase of your treatment, Dr. Santosa will explain the differences between these implant types and help you select your ideal breast shape and size. Your breast augmentation procedure may also be combined with a lift or included in a Mommy Makeover for comprehensive results.
Breast AugmentationLip lift and buccal fat pad removal surgeries can enhance the defined, sculpted look of your lower face. A lip lift can help your lips appear fuller and more youthful without the need for synthetic materials by shortening the distance between the upper lip and the nose. For enhanced definition and a more slender appearance, buccal fat pad removal reduces visual weight in the lower portion of the face. These treatments can be performed alone or in combination for enhanced facial harmony.
