Services
Facial Rejuvenation
Facial rejuvenation procedures restore youthful appearance through techniques like facelifts, blepharoplasty, and fat grafting. Ideal for addressing aging signs, these surgeries target wrinkles, sagging skin, and volume loss. Patients benefit from natural-looking results that enhance facial harmony while maintaining individual expression.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances size and shape using implants or fat transfer. Options include silicone/saline implants and autologous fat grafting for natural volume. Candidates seek proportionate contours, with solutions for asymmetry, post-pregnancy changes, or reconstructive needs following implant removal.
Body Contouring
Body contouring addresses excess skin and fat through procedures like abdominoplasty and liposuction. Targets post-weight loss irregularities, diastasis recti, or stubborn fat deposits. Combines surgical precision with aesthetic judgment to create balanced, functional improvements in body proportions.
Gynecomastia Surgery
Gynecomastia surgery corrects enlarged male breast tissue through liposuction and excision. Treats both fatty and glandular causes, creating flatter, more defined chest contours. Addresses self-consciousness from hormonal imbalances, weight changes, or medication effects.
Non-Surgical Aesthetics
Non-surgical treatments include laser hair removal, BOTOX, and skin rejuvenation. These services provide minimally invasive alternatives for maintaining results between surgeries. Offered through integrated medical spa facilities for comprehensive pre/post-operative skincare and maintenance.

Dr. Schmidt is a wonderful plastic surgeon. I had a bra line back lift. I went from having several rolls of back fat to none. Amazing transformation. I am very happy with the outcome of the surgery, Dr. Schmidt, and the Blue Water staff.

Dr. Schmidt and her team at Blue Water are simply amazing! The time and care shown during consultation, the nursing staff, and surgical team were all very professional, kind, informative, and thorough.

Any questions or concerns I had were answered promptly and the staff couldn't be more warm and caring. Dr. Schmidt exudes confidence and intelligence, and her surgical skill is top notch.

The team modeled exceptional professionalism and flexibility with challenges I had prior to surgery. I cannot have gas anesthesia, and Blue Water seamlessly coordinated
