Cosmetic surgery may be the best option for many patients. Surgery can enhance your appearance by improving aesthetic appeal, symmetry and proportion that may not be able to be achieved through non-surgical procedures.

The following is a list of procedures.

Procedures for the Body

Arm Lift (Brachioplasty): Lifting and tightening of the upper arm.
