Plastic And Hand Surgical Associates

State-of-the-Art Cosmetic Surgery

Aesthetic surgery, commonly known as cosmetic surgery, involves procedures that reshape facial and bodily features. Cosmetic surgery is designed to improve a person's appearance and self-confidence.

Expert in cosmetic surgery, Plastic & Hand surgeons spend a substantial part of their day handling surgeries and treatments including face lifts, liposuction, breast augmentation and injectables such as Botox ® Cosmetic and Juvéderm ® XC injectable gel. They have extensive experience in all aspects of plastic surgery, giving them a deep understanding of anatomy that is invaluable for all cosmetic and anti-aging treatments.

These respected surgeons also play a part in the education and training of tomorrow's physicians. The practice has a long-term teaching relationship with the Lahey Clinic in Massachusetts, and all of the surgeons in the practice are on the faculty of the Tufts University School of Medicine.

Today, there is more interest than ever in cosmetic surgery. The physicians of Plastic & Hand carefully screen patients to be sure they're medically stable and thoroughly understand the procedure they're considering.

Serious Skin Care

Skincare treatments and anti-aging procedures have become ever more popular as people realize how safe and effective they are. The doctors offer both Botox ® Cosmetic and Juvéderm ® XC injectable gel, and, here at Skin Care Solutions, only our plastic surgeons do the injections. Botox reduces forehead creases and frown lines, and can also provide a "lifting" effect to the brow. Juvéderm XC, the next-generation hyaluronic filler, instantly smoothes the "parentheses" lines on your face, and lasts up to a year.

Skin Care Solutions aestheticians work closely with the cosmetic surgeons and offer a variety of anti-aging treatments and products. The aestheticians can address scars, sun damage, dehydrated skin, premature aging, rosacea, unwanted hair, pigmentation problems, broken and dilated capillaries and age spots.

A breakthrough treatment, Fraxel re:store® Dual laser treatment improves skin damaged over the years by unavoidable exposure to the sun and air pollution, stress, fatigue and other factors of aging. Benefits include improved texture, tone and pore size, rejuvenating your neck, chest and hands, and erasing unwanted brown spots. IPL photorejuvenation, DermaSweep™ microdermabrasion and therapeutic facial peels are also included in the treatments offered at Skin Care Solutions from Plastic & Hand.

We also offer CoolSculpting® treatments to freeze away stubborn fat, and enhancements including semipermanent makeup and eyelash extensions. The Skin Solutions team member who specializes in these techniques is a certified surgical technician by training.
