Body Surgery

CNSO offers a variety of body-contouring services to help patients achieve the look they envision:

• Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck): This removes excess skin and fat from around the belly to create a firmer, smoother abdomen.
• Brachioplasty (arm lift): This procedure tightens loose skin around the upper arm to improve how clothing fits and restore a youthful appearance.
• Liposuction: This removes localized fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise, permanently creating a more proportionate figure.
• Body contouring: This process involves resculpting multiple parts of the body to address loose skin and other problem areas created by major weight loss.
• Mommy makeover: This reshapes the belly, breasts, and other areas to correct the physical changes caused by pregnancy.

Breast Surgery

Breasts are an important symbol of femininity for many women. When breasts appear misshapen, asymmetrical, or sagging, a person’s body image and self-confidence can be impacted. CNSO offers a range of cosmetic breast surgeries to improve patients’ comfort and appearance:

• Breast augmentation: This creates larger, shapelier, or more symmetrical breasts to compensate for pregnancy, surgery, or unsatisfactory growth.
• Breast lift: This procedure raises the breasts and restores a youthful look to breasts that have sagged due to age, repeated pregnancy, weight loss, or smoking.
• Breast reconstruction: This recreates and reshapes breasts that have been surgically removed for breast cancer treatment or prevention.
• Breast reduction: This involves removing tissue from the breasts to reduce weight, eliminate back pain, and create a more proportionate figure.
• Preventive mastectomy: This removes breast tissue to proactively reduce the risk of breast cancer, especially for high-risk patients.

Facial Surgery

The face is the first feature most people notice. It draws attention during routine interactions and conversations and makes a strong impression. CNSO’s cosmetic face surgeries address wrinkles, loose skin, scarring, and other possible issues to help patients feel more confident in everyday life:

• Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery): This reinvigorates puffy, sagging, or wrinkled eyelids to enhance the appearance or even to improve vision for those who qualify.
• Brow lift: This procedure tightens the skin around the forehead to reduce wrinkles, elevating the eyebrows, and restoring a youthful appearance.
• Neck lift: This sculpts and smooths the neck and removes excess skin to counteract the wrinkled, hanging appearance caused by aging.
• Otoplasty (ear pinning): This process reduces the size of abnormally large ears, sets prominent ears closer to the head, or corrects scarred or misshapen ears.
• Rhinoplasty (nose reshaping): This procedure resculpts the nose to correct a birth defect, repair an injury, improve breathing, or enhance the appearance.
• Skin cancer removal and restoration: This involves treating cancerous growths, removing lesions, while optimizing scarring to obtain the best aesthetic result
• Scar revision: This moves, reduces, or removes prominent scars caused by injury or previous surgeries to create smoother, clearer skin.
• Facelift: This procedure lifts and tightens multiple areas of the face to eliminate droopiness, reduce wrinkles, and combat the effects of aging.

• Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck): This removes excess tissue from the belly region to create a firmer, smoother abdomen.
• Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery): This helps revitalize wrinkly, puffy, or tired-looking eyelids to improve vision and create an impression of alertness.
• Chin surgery: This procedure adjusts the shape and prominence of the chin to create a stronger silhouette and better balance with the nose.
• Liposuction: This removes stubborn deposits of localized fat, especially those that do not go away with healthy diets or exercise.

The skin is the largest organ in the body, protecting the person and defining their appearance. CNSO helps patients care for their skin with a variety of cosmetic skin procedures designed to enhance, revitalize, and rejuvenate:

• BOTOX cosmetic: These injections reduce worry lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, and other wrinkles for three to six months.
