Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using saline or silicone implants. Ideal for women seeking proportionality, correction of asymmetry, or post-pregnancy restoration. Dr. Kunkel employs advanced techniques like 3D imaging to ensure natural results. Recovery typically allows return to work within a week, with full activity resumption in six weeks.
Facelift
Facelift surgery minimizes signs of aging by tightening skin and muscles in the face and neck. Best for addressing jowls, nasolabial folds, and neck banding. Dr. Kunkel offers full and short-scar techniques, with recovery involving 3-4 weeks of swelling reduction and 6 weeks for strenuous activities.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat while tightening abdominal muscles. Suitable for post-pregnancy or post-weight loss patients. Dr. Kunkel combines liposuction for enhanced contours. Recovery includes an overnight stay and 2-3 weeks off work, with full results visible after 6 weeks.
Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery rejuvenates tired or sagging eyes by removing excess skin and fat. Addresses upper eyelid heaviness and lower eyelid puffiness. Dr. Kunkel uses incisions within natural creases for minimal scarring. Most patients return to work within 10 days, with swelling subsiding in 3-4 weeks.
BOTOX Injections
BOTOX reduces dynamic wrinkles by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. Targets forehead lines, crows feet, and frown lines. Results appear in 3-14 days, lasting 3-4 months. Administered by Dr. Kunkels nurse, Krista, with no downtime required for most patients.
