Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances size and shape using saline or silicone implants. Ideal for women seeking proportionality, post-pregnancy restoration, or asymmetry correction. Dr. Lowenstein tailors implant type, size, and placement to achieve natural, confidence-boosting results while prioritizing safety and long-term satisfaction.
DeepFrame Facelift
The DeepFrame facelift addresses aging by repositioning facial tissues in three dimensions. This technique lifts sagging skin, tightens muscles, and restores midface volume for a youthful contour. Patients enjoy minimal scarring and results lasting up to a decade with proper post-op care.
CoolSculpting Elite
CoolSculpting Elite eliminates stubborn fat via cryolipolysis, targeting areas like the abdomen, thighs, and chin. Non-invasive and requiring no downtime, it delivers gradual, permanent results over 2-6 months. Dual applicators enhance efficiency for faster body contouring.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles, ideal for post-pregnancy or post-weight-loss patients. Dr. Lowenstein addresses diastasis recti and contour irregularities, offering full or mini procedures based on individual needs for a flatter, firmer midsection.
Botox Injections
Botox smooths dynamic wrinkles like frown lines and crows feet by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. Results appear within days, lasting 3-4 months. Our expert injector customizes treatment for a refreshed, natural appearance without overdone effects.
