Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using implants or fat transfer techniques. Ideal for patients seeking improved proportions or post-pregnancy restoration, this procedure offers customizable results with natural-looking outcomes. Our surgeons prioritize safety and symmetry, ensuring personalized consultations to determine implant type, size, and placement method for optimal satisfaction.
Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses sagging skin and deep creases to restore a youthful facial contour. Targeting the mid-face, jowls, and neck, this procedure tightens underlying tissues and removes excess skin. Patients achieve long-lasting results that enhance natural features while maintaining facial expressiveness through advanced, minimally invasive techniques.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits from areas like the abdomen, thighs, and arms to refine body shape. Using precision techniques, we sculpt targeted regions for smoother contours unresponsive to diet or exercise. The procedure complements healthy lifestyles, offering lasting results when combined with proper weight management.
BOTOX Cosmetic
BOTOX Cosmetic temporarily relaxes facial muscles causing dynamic wrinkles, reducing the appearance of frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead creases. This nonsurgical treatment delivers visible smoothing within days, with effects lasting 3-4 months. Regular sessions maintain youthful results while preventing new lines from forming.
Laser Treatments
Laser treatments address sun damage, uneven tone, and textural irregularities through targeted light energy. These noninvasive procedures stimulate collagen production, improving skin clarity and firmness for a radiant complexion. Customizable settings ensure safe, effective results for various skin types and concerns.

Dr. Koehler and his entire staff are wonderful. They all will take time to explain in detail everything you ask about. He is a great surgeon and very caring. I have used his services for 2 entirely different surgeries and I am very pleased about the outcome of both.

Both times that I have visited Dr K office amongst he and his staff. I have always left feeling like no other Doctor/Surgeon and their staff can top the service that you receive here. My Surgery is scheduled for December 8, 2020 and I am truly looking forward to this experience! Highly recommends before and can confidently say that I will recommend after!

I recommend Dr. Koehler to whomever needs a plastic surgeon for whatever reason right here in the Gulf Coast area.The first time my husband and I had a consultation with him , I knew he was the right surgeon . I didnt feel rushed, Dr Koehler answered all questions I had as well as offered his professional advice which I loved. Im convinced he takes pride in his work, he keep the conversation honest, and doesnt feed you some fairytale story in relation to your body. Im here to say ... I am very, very pleased with the outcome of my surgery .I simply love him.

All of the staff at Eastern Shore Cosmetic Surgery has been very attentive and compassionate. I'm on day five of recovery from a mommy make over and I absolutely feel great. I'm pleased with the results so far and couldn't be happier with my new shape. Dr. Koehler is the best at what he does and I would recommend him to anyone considering cosmetic surgery! To everyone involved in my surgery, thank you!!! Words can't express my gratitude!
