It’s uncomfortable wearing pants or skirts because I have so much excess fat and skin at my belly
I’d feel so much better about myself with a tighter abdomen
Is there a plastic surgeon in San Diego who would understand my needs and work with me to get my desired results?

Lucky for you, a simple San Diego tummy tuck may be your solution. It’s not a permanent substitute for losing weight; it is a way to firm and smooth your abdomen. Sometimes, not even healthy diets and regular workouts can eliminate an accumulation of excess fat and loose, sagging skin in your abdominal area. Our San Diego cosmetic surgeon has your solution.

Liposuction of the hip area is sometimes done at the same time to improve the contour. The surgery will take place in an accredited surgery center with the support of a licensed anesthesiologist.

Surgery takes about 3 hours, and is performed as an out patient procedure under general anesthesia
Drains are placed at the time of the procedure, and you will need to wear an abdominal binder for 4-6 weeks
You should plan a minimum of 2-3 weeks off work

There’s no need to endure the frustration of having to live with saggy skin around your tummy.

Want to avoid injecting botox for wrinkles? Looking for a different way to give yourself the facial rejuvenation you can feel you need?

There are many reasons why people—women and men—choose to have face and neck lifts. If you’ve had any of the thoughts noted below, then you may be a good candidate.

I don’t feel old, but the appearance of my face makes me look old.
I hate all the wrinkles on my face.
I’ve lost weight, so now I have excess skin sagging on my face.
My neck looks saggy, and that makes me feel older than I am.
I would be more confident if my face and neck looked younger.

A face lift and or neck lift may be your wrinkle treatment solution. The skin on your face and on your neck undergoes changes as you age and while moisturizers and anti-aging products can have some effect, they won’t give you the pleasing transformation that cosmetic surgery can.

During a face lift, Dr. Breister Ghosh will correct sagging facial skin and muscles, remove excess fat, and restore firmness, making you look more youthful, rested and vibrant. A neck lift may include the lower face to create the lift and natural-looking contour that matches your goal. Both procedures will take place at an accredited surgical center with the support of a licensed anesthesiologist.

Surgery is done under a general anesthetic. It takes several hours to perform. It is generally out patient.

Some people recover very quickly and are ready to be seen in 8-10 days.

Total recovery time may take several weeks.

Schedule a consultation today to discover how a face / neck lift may be the solution you’re looking for.

There are many reasons why people—women and men—choose to undergo BOTOX® Cosmetic injections. If you have had any of the thoughts noted below, chances are you may be a good candidate.

People think I look mad when I am not mad at all.
I’m tired of looking at the vertical lines between my brows and on my forehead.
I want to get rid of the “crow’s feet” at the corners of my eyes.
I have a big event coming up and I want to be sure I look my best.
I’m in a field where it’s a competitive advantage to look younger, so I need to do what I can to soften the ravages of time on my face.
I don’t want to have a Face Lift, but I want to do something to help my face look younger, maybe skin resurfacing?

BOTOX® Cosmetic—the Allergan Inc. trademark for Botulinium Toxin Type A—may be your solution. Thousands of people are feeling better about themselves after getting botox injections on a regular basis (every four to six months). Others are merely reaping the benefits of treating themselves prior to a big event, like a high school reunion or black-tie affair.

Dr. Breister Ghosh focuses on providing patients with a natural look when she injects them with FDA-approved BOTOX® Cosmetic in her office. A few tiny injections relax overactive muscles and soften vertical lines found between the brows, on the forehead and at the corners of the eyes. It can take from 48-72 hours to see results; so Dr. Ghosh suggests seeking an injection prior to a special event at least three days in advance.

You’ve heard about BOTOX® Cosmetic; now you can experience its benefits yourself. Schedule a consultation today to learn more.

I don’t want to have a Face Lift, but I want to do something to enhance the appearance of my face.

Cosmetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) may be your solution. Many patients opt for this procedure rather than having a more invasive Face Lift, or they do this first, prior to deciding whether they want to have additional surgeries like San Diego botox.

As your San Diego plastic surgeon, Dr. Breister Ghosh can remove the excess fat and drooping skin of your upper eyelids, minimize the bags under the eyes and tighten the lower eyelid skin. You will definitely have a more alert and rested appearance. Of course, the surgery takes place in an accredited surgery center with the support of a licensed anesthesiologist.

Eyelid surgery can take 1-2 hours and may be done under general or local anesthesia.

Recovery is about 5-7 days and is done on an outpatient basis.

The endoscopic brow lift is performed through 5 small incisions made behind your hair line. A small endoscope is used to visualize and help perform the surgery.

Dr. Breister Ghosh can discuss several surgical options available to lift the brows, both to provide you with a younger and more alert appearance and to correct issues like asymmetry. All procedures are done in an accredited surgery center with the support of a licensed anesthesiologist.

I have problem areas on my body.
I lose weight and the fat just won’t go away in those certain areas.
I’ve lost weight but need some shaping and sculpting.

Liposuction or liposculpture may be the exact cosmetic procedure you are in need of. One of the most common cosmetic procedures, liposuction can be done for almost any area of the body.

Dr. Breister Ghosh will remove fat cells from your “troubled” areas, performing the procedure in a highly accredited surgery center with the support of a licensed anesthesiologist. Most results will be seen within the first month.

It is important to note that patients should be within five pounds of their ideal weight before surgery. Also, the use of compression garments is essential to obtaining the smooth and taut appearance of the skin as it re-drapes over muscle.

Stop stressing over your little wiggles and jiggles. Schedule a consultation today to discuss if liposuction or liposculpture can provide the contouring you seek on your arms, legs, tummy or any other area that troubles you.

I wish there was a way to soften the wrinkles on my face without getting a Face Lift.
I want to improve my acne scars.
I’d love to be able to reduce the pigmentation of my skin and make it smoother.
I’d like to erase the damage the sun has done to my face.
I have a scar on my face that I wish was less visible.

Laser facial resurfacing, as an alternative to San Diego botox, may be your solution. Many women find this procedure refreshes them almost as much as a Face Lift.

Dr. Breister Ghosh uses a laser to remove a thin layer of your skin’s surface, which is replaced by younger skin growth. Wrinkles will soften, become less noticeable or disappear, and pigmented lesions will greatly improve. It also serves as a great treatment for acne scars, hypertrophic or surgical scars, and damage caused by the sun. The procedure is done in an accredited surgery center with the support of a licensed anesthesiologist.

There’s no reason to live with skin imperfections on your face!

I know surgery is not for me, but I’d definitely be interested in a procedure that could help diminish or eliminate the lines on my face.
I feel like I need to add volume around my mouth.

If that’s the case, soft tissue fillers may be your ideal solution. The FDA has approved these treatments, which are in-office procedures performed by Dr. Breister Ghosh.

Restylane® has been used since 1996 as filler material to soften and/or eliminate deeper lines on the face by providing volume and fullness. Results are seen immediately. The treatment is not permanent, but typically lasts about six to eight months.

Perlane® This filler is hyaluronic acid that has more volume per cc. It is typically used for deep nasolabial folds and heavy wrinkles.

Juvederm™, from the creators of BOTOX, comes a newer product being marketed as a “next-generation” dermal filler. It restores volume and smoothes away fine lines, such as vertical lip lines, and can correct wrinkles and folds around your mouth and nose. Much like San Diego botox, these results also occur immediately, and Juvedermâ„¢ treatments typically last up to a year.

ArteFill® is a dual-acting wrinkle filler, and is the first and only FDA-approved product for the correction of ‘smile’ lines.

Sculptra® is designed to help correct the signs of aging that can easily be seen in the facial area.

Schedule a consultation today to see how Restylane®, Perlane®, Juvederm™, ArteFill® or Sculptra® can provide you with a younger looking face.
