Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses visible signs of aging in the face and neck through precise tissue repositioning and skin tightening. This procedure effectively reduces jowls, smooths deep creases, and restores youthful contours while maintaining natural facial expressions. Ideal candidates include individuals with moderate to advanced facial aging seeking long-lasting improvement in their appearance.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation increases breast size and improves shape using saline or silicone implants placed through carefully concealed incisions. This procedure addresses concerns about small breast size, asymmetry, or volume loss following pregnancy and breastfeeding. Results create balanced proportions while maintaining a natural look and feel that complements each patient's body type.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery flattens the abdomen by removing excess skin, tightening muscles, and contouring remaining tissue for improved definition. This procedure addresses stubborn fat deposits and loose skin that persist despite diet and exercise. Ideal for post-pregnancy body restoration or following significant weight loss, creating a smoother, firmer midsection.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty enhances facial harmony by reshaping the nose through precise cartilage and bone modifications while maintaining proper breathing function. This procedure addresses concerns about size, shape, or asymmetry while ensuring natural-looking results that complement other facial features. Both cosmetic and functional improvements can be achieved simultaneously.
Brazilian Butt Lift
Brazilian butt lift enhances buttock shape and volume using the patient's own harvested fat through liposuction and strategic grafting. This procedure creates improved proportions by transferring purified fat to targeted areas of the buttocks. Results provide natural enhancement without implants while simultaneously contouring surrounding body areas.

My experience with Dr. Olding was exceptional! He is so honest, professional and thorough. Dr. Olding made an excellent suggestion for how best to get the results I was looking for with a very minimal procedure. The results were exactly what I wanted. In addition, everyone on his staff is warm and welcoming, in addition to being very professional as well. The office is so well run, with no waiting time! Everyone on the staff took time for any questions or concerns I had. I never felt rushed and actually enjoyed going to the office for appointments.

My experience with Dr. Olding and his staff (Joe and Beth especially) was absolutely wonderful. After several consultations with other plastic surgeons I settled on Dr. Olding because I believed he was the most qualified and showed the best judgment while explaining my procedure to me. He was also recommended to me by my trusted dermatologist so that factored into my decision as well. Deciding on a plastic surgeon in the DC area is tough as there are so many qualified doctors to choose from but I hope my review can help anyone struggling with making a decision.

Dr. Michael did a Breast Reductions on me about 30 years it was my second one the first was done by another Dr. After 7 years they grew back so my other Dr. retired and recommend Dr. Olding, my first visit with Dr. Olding was love at once he was so understanding and promise me that once he did my surgery I would never have to worry about them growing back again so I'm here to tell everyone he was right and after 30 years they are still wonderful this man is a GREAT SURGEON I still recommend him to all my friends that needs the BEST to him.
STILL love you Michael Olding.

A week after my facelift I was working in the yard when two women walked by. They asked What happened to the lady who lived here? I told them it was meIve lived here for 35 years. One woman said, Oh, it must have been your mother. I have felt more energetic too. I dont look old and tired so I dont feel old and tired. Thank you Dr. Olding for changing my life at the age of 69!
