From breast reductions and augmentations to mommy makeovers, liposuction and more, a plastic surgeon can help you get the look that makes you feel confident and rejuvenated.
Types of Cosmetic Plastic Surgery
Below is a list of some of the most common procedures performed by plastic surgeons around the world.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries worldwide. Whether you’re seeking fuller, shapelier breasts or want to restore volume lost due to pregnancy or weight loss, breast augmentation can help you achieve your goals. Options include both silicone and saline implants tailored to your body and preferences.
Benefits of breast augmentation:
- Restores volume and shape, especially after pregnancy or weight loss
- Enhances body proportion and boosts self-confidence
- Customizable options for implant type and size
Mommy Makeovers
Mommy makeovers are designed to restore your body to its pre-pregnancy state. It typically includes a combination of body contouring treatments, such as breast augmentation, liposuction, and a tummy tuck.
Benefits of a mommy makeover:
- Targets multiple areas of the body in one procedure
- Improves body contour after pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Helps tighten and restore muscles that have been stretched
Liposuction
Liposuction sculpts away stubborn fat and targets fat deposits in the abdomen, thighs, love handles, arms, and beneath the chin.
Benefits of liposuction:
- Removes localized fat that resists diet and exercise
- Provides smoother body contours and a more toned appearance
- Target specific areas for more defined proportions
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck can help tighten your abdominal area after pregnancy, weight loss or even the natural aging process. It’s designed to remove excess skin and fat while tightening the underlying abdominal muscles.
Benefits of a tummy tuck:
- Removes excess skin that can’t be eliminated with diet and exercise
- Tightens weakened or separated abdominal muscles
- Restores a flatter, firmer abdominal contour
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty can help rejuvenate your eyes if drooping eyelids make you look tired or older than you feel. This surgery removes excess skin, fat, and muscle from the upper or lower eyelids, restoring a youthful, refreshed look.
Benefits of Blepharoplasty:
- Removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids
- Reduces puffiness and dark circles around the eyes
- Improves vision if eyelid sagging is obstructing sight
Reconstructive Plastic Surgery
Reconstructive plastic surgery goes beyond aesthetics to repair and restore body parts affected by injury, disease, or congenital conditions.
Breast Reconstruction
Breast reconstruction can restore your natural shape after cancer for women who have undergone a mastectomy or trauma to provide a more natural and symmetrical look.
Benefits of breast reconstruction:
Rebuilds the breast after mastectomy or trauma
Provides a more natural and symmetrical look
Boosts self-esteem and restores body confidence
Facial Reconstruction
Facial reconstruction can help restore a natural look and improve function.
Benefits of facial reconstruction:
- Repairs damage from trauma, disease, or birth defects

Scar Revision
Scar revision can minimize the impact of scarring, helping you feel more confident in your skin.
Benefits of scar revision:
- Reduces the visibility of scars from surgery, burns, or accidents
- Improves the color, texture, and size of scars
- Helps restore smooth skin and enhance overall appearance
Non-Surgical Cosmetic Options
If you’re not quite ready for surgery or are looking for a less invasive way to enhance your appearance, non-surgical cosmetic procedures offer effective solutions. Many plastic surgeons provide a range of treatments to help you achieve your aesthetic goals without downtime or anesthesia.
Botox
Botox and dermal fillers reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss with injectable treatments. Botox relaxes facial muscles to smooth out wrinkles, while dermal fillers add volume to areas like the cheeks, lips, and under-eye region.
