Services
Rhinoplasty
Our rhinoplasty procedure addresses both aesthetic concerns and functional breathing issues through precise nasal reshaping. With Dr. Garza's specialization in nasal surgery and sports-related facial injuries, patients receive tailored solutions that enhance facial harmony while improving respiratory function. The surgery combines artistic vision with anatomical expertise to create natural-looking results that maintain proper nasal structure and function.
Breast Augmentation
This procedure offers customized breast enhancement using implants or fat transfer techniques. Dr. Friedman's specialization in body contouring ensures proportionate results that align with each patient's unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. The surgery addresses volume loss, asymmetry, or congenital conditions while maintaining natural breast tissue characteristics and ensuring proper implant placement.
Liposuction
Our liposuction technique precisely removes localized fat deposits to create smoother body contours. Utilizing advanced equipment and Dr. Garza's extensive experience in body procedures, we target stubborn fat areas while preserving surrounding tissue integrity. The procedure offers both cosmetic enhancement and improved body proportion through careful fat distribution analysis.
Facial Reconstruction
This specialized service addresses traumatic injuries, cancer resections, and congenital deformities through comprehensive facial reconstruction. Leveraging our dual expertise in plastic surgery and dentistry, we restore both form and function while maintaining facial aesthetics. Techniques include bone grafting, tissue rearrangement, and microvascular surgery for complex cases.
Male Gynecomastia Treatment
Our male breast reduction procedure addresses excess glandular tissue and fat to create a more masculine chest contour. Combining surgical excision and liposuction techniques, we achieve balanced results that enhance self-confidence. The treatment plan considers individual body composition and underlying causes to ensure optimal outcomes.
