Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation increases breast size and improves shape using implants. Ideal for patients seeking fuller, symmetrical breasts or post-pregnancy restoration. Dr. Lee customizes implant type, size, and placement to align with body goals. Results are immediate, with final outcomes visible after healing. This procedure addresses volume loss, asymmetry, or congenital defects, offering long-term confidence boosts.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting eliminates stubborn fat non-invasively using cryolipolysis. Target areas include the abdomen, chin, and thighs. Fat cells crystallize and are naturally expelled, with results appearing over 24 months. No downtime is required, making it ideal for active lifestyles. Patients achieve slimmer contours without surgery, with optimal results in 36 months.
Facelift
A facelift addresses sagging skin, jowls, and deep creases to restore a youthful appearance. Techniques like SMAS lifting reposition tissues for natural results. Recovery takes 12 weeks, with long-lasting effects. Ideal for patients with moderate to severe facial aging, this surgery offers a refreshed look without an overdone appearance.
Botox
Botox injections smooth dynamic wrinkles caused by facial movements. Common targets include forehead lines, crows feet, and frown lines. Results appear within days and last 36 months. The treatment also prevents new wrinkles, offering a non-surgical option for a youthful, relaxed expression with no downtime.
Agnes RF
Agnes RF uses microneedling with radiofrequency to tighten skin and reduce acne scars. It stimulates collagen for firmer texture, targeting jowls, eye bags, and uneven tone. Sessions last 3060 minutes, with minimal recovery. Ideal for all skin types seeking non-surgical rejuvenation and lasting skin health improvements.
