Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation uses implants to improve breast symmetry, fullness, and projection. Ideal for women seeking enhanced proportions after pregnancy or weight loss, this procedure offers customizable options including saline or silicone implants. Our practice provides comprehensive consultations to help patients choose the best implant type and placement method for natural-looking results that match their body goals.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery removes excess abdominal skin and fat while tightening separated muscles. This procedure addresses post-pregnancy changes and post-weight loss skin laxity through customized incisions that minimize visible scarring. Patients receive detailed recovery guidance to ensure proper healing and long-lasting contour improvements when combined with healthy lifestyle habits.
Facelift
Facelift surgery smooths facial wrinkles and tightens sagging skin to restore youthful contours. Our technique addresses jawline definition and neck laxity through discreet incisions that follow natural facial creases. The procedure can be combined with other facial rejuvenation treatments for comprehensive anti-aging results that maintain natural facial expressions.
Botox Treatments
Botox injections temporarily relax facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. This non-surgical treatment smooths frown lines and crow's feet with minimal downtime, providing visible results within days that last 3-6 months. Our practitioners customize injection plans to maintain natural facial movement while reducing visible aging signs.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits from multiple body areas including the abdomen, thighs, and arms. Using advanced techniques, we sculpt targeted regions for improved body proportions that diet and exercise cannot achieve. Patients receive personalized treatment plans to address specific trouble spots while maintaining realistic expectations about post-procedure results.

Questions
Is plastic surgery safe?
All surgical procedures carry risks. We thoroughly review medical history and current health before approving surgery, taking precautions to minimize complications while ensuring patient safety.
How do I know if plastic surgery is right for me?
Consider your health, motivations, and expectations. Good health reduces risks, realistic goals ensure satisfaction, and thorough consultations help determine appropriate procedures for your individual needs.
What happens during my initial consultation?
We discuss your goals, review medical history, assess procedure suitability, and provide visual examples. This includes detailed explanations of potential outcomes, risks, and post-operative care requirements.
Will my insurance cover the surgery?
Reconstructive surgery may be covered, but cosmetic procedures typically aren't. Insurance companies increasingly challenge coverage even for reconstructive cases under current healthcare policies.
Are breast implants safe?
Both silicone and saline implants are FDA-approved. Dr. Barton provides comprehensive education about safety profiles, risks, and helps patients make informed decisions during consultations.
