Aesthetic Procedures
The Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and Vein Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital–Plymouth offers a wide variety of aesthetic (aesthetic) face and body procedures for both women and men.
Aesthetic Facial Procedures
We offer many procedures that will address the effects of natural aging in your brow, eyelids, face, nose, jowls, chin and neck. We'll take time to listen to your concerns and help you understand the options available to you.
Depending on your needs, you may want to consider one of our non-surgical aesthetic treatments.
Breast Procedures
We offer the full-range of aesthetic breast procedures, including augmentation, reduction and reshaping.
Qualifying for Aesthetic Surgery
To ensure a smooth recovery, you need to be nicotine-free and physically fit before surgery. If you have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or above, you may not qualify until you lose weight. Your safety is our top priority.
Aesthetic Surgery After Weight Loss
Have you reached a stable weight after eating right and exercising? If so, you may still be experiencing some skin folds and excess fat in some areas — including the abdomen, hips, thighs, legs, and arms. There are several ways we can help you address this and improve your quality of life through body contouring.
A tummy tuck improves the shape of your abdominal area. Surgeons remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tighten the abdominal skin and wall muscles.
An arm lift surgery reshapes your upper arm from the underarm region to the elbow. This procedure can provide a tighter, firmer upper arm appearance.
Liposuction sculpts and shapes areas of your body by removing fat deposits from under the abdomen, hips, thighs, calves, arms, buttocks, back, neck or face. Liposuction procedures can be performed in more than one area in a single procedure.
A thigh lift can reshape your thighs by reducing excess skin and fat. This results in smoother skin and a better-lower body and thighs while decreasing sagging or drooping.
A lower body lift is a procedure that tightens your thighs and buttocks by removing excess skin and tissues from the outside hip and inner thigh.
After weight loss, your breasts may appear deflated or feel as if they are sagging. Your breasts can be shaped to have a fuller appearance with existing skin, local fat or implants and a repositioned nipple-areolar region.
Excess breast skin and fat is also common when men lose weight. In male breast surgery, the excess skin is removed and the nipple area is repositioned.
