Face

Injectables

Not everyone is ready for surgery… or needs it! Injectables provide a minimally invasive way to improve a patient’s appearance, with less downtime and expense. Dr. Landis offers a variety of fillers and Botox Cosmetic. Receiving these medical procedures by a highly-qualified individual in a safe atmosphere is key to obtaining excellent and natural results.

Face Lift

A facelift improves visible signs of facial aging and can refresh and rejuvenate a patient’s appearance. Different techniques can be customized to each patient to smooth the skin of the face and neck, tighten the underlying muscles, and remove excess skin.

Upper Blepharoplasty

As the third most common plastic surgical procedure, blepharoplasty (or upper eyelid surgery) removes the excess eyelid skin, giving a more bright-eyed appearance. It can often improve vision as well.

SkinPen

SkinPen is a microneedling device which has quickly become a favorite of our patients. With a treatment only lasting 30-60 minutes, patients appreciate the wonderful results and minimal downtime.

Breast

Breast Augmentation

Women seeking to restore their breast fullness after pregnancy or weight loss, looking to correct asymmetries, or simply wanting to increase their breast size may consider breast augmentation. During a consultation with Dr. Landis, she will help you develop a plan for your specific needs, including the type and size of breast implant and how it is placed. Her goal is always to give the patient a result that is beautiful, natural, and proportional to a woman’s frame.

Breast Lift

Mastopexy (or breast lift surgery) can restore the breasts to a more youthful appearance. Dr. Landis is highly trained in a variety of breast lift techniques that can be individualized to each patient. A breast lift involves rearranging the breast tissue to a perkier, more lifted appearance, moving the nipple higher on the breast, and re-draping the breast skin to a more youthful shape. Occasionally a breast implant can be placed at the time of breast lift, or liposuction can be performed to improve the breast shape.

Breast Reduction

Landis has performed hundreds of breast reduction surgeries, which are often the happiest patients in a plastic surgeon’s practice. This surgery reduces the size of a patient’s breast with removal of excess skin and breast tissue, repositioning of the nipple and liposuction of the outer area of the breast. Patients report an improvement in their neck and back pain, improved fit of bras and clothing and a better ability to be active and exercise.

Breast Implant Removal

Many women undergo breast augmentation, and some will choose to have their implants removed. There are a variety of reasons that women will choose this procedure, including a change in their aesthetic goals, a desire for smaller or more natural breasts, or an issue with their breast implant such as implant leakage or capsular contracture. This safe, outpatient procedure typically removes the breast implants and the surrounding capsule.

Body

Liposuction

Liposuction is an outpatient surgical procedure designed to remove fat from specific areas of the body to improve contour and decrease size. Common areas addressed are the neck, arms, abdomen, flanks, and outer thighs. It is often offered with other surgical procedures to enhance the results.

Abdominoplasty

A “tummy tuck” or abdominoplasty is a very popular form of body contouring to improve the appearance or function of the abdomen, usually after childbirth or weight fluctuations. Patients will describe sagging skin, stretch marks, a protruding belly, or fat deposits that they are unhappy with. In most patients excess skin and soft tissue is removed and the rectus muscles (or six pack muscles) are tightened. In massive weight loss patients, a more extensive fleur-du-lis abdominoplasty is performed to achieve even more skin removal, which gives the patient an even smaller waist.

Thigh Lifts

Thigh lifts are very popular in our massive weight loss patients, but also can be very gratifying for any patient that is dissatisfied with the size or appearance of their upper legs. After this outpatient procedure, patients feel more comfortable in clothing and experience less rubbing of their thighs.

Mommy Makeover

This combination of cosmetic procedures is designed to restore and enhance a woman’s body after pregnancy and childbirth. This comprehensive approach typically includes a combination of breast surgery, tummy tuck, and liposuction, tailored to address the specific concerns and goals of each individual patient.
