Delta Facelift
Dr. Grotting's proprietary Delta Facelift creates natural facial rejuvenation by avoiding skin overstretching. This advanced technique uses strategic incisions and fat grafting to smooth creases around the mouth and eyes. Ideal for patients seeking subtle, long-lasting results without the 'pulled' appearance associated with traditional facelifts.
Breast Augmentation
Customized breast enhancement using implants or fat transfer techniques. Dr. Grotting's approach prioritizes natural proportions and tissue compatibility, with options for silicone or saline implants. Patients receive comprehensive pre-operative planning and post-operative care for optimal aesthetic outcomes.
CoolSculpting
Non-invasive body contouring that freezes and eliminates fat cells through controlled cooling. This FDA-approved treatment targets stubborn areas like love handles and belly fat without surgery. Results appear gradually over 2-4 months with no downtime required.

I became a patient of Dr Grotting when I was 43 years old. Sixteen years later and at the age of 59 Mother Nature was taking a toll! I decided it was time for THE WORKS.! Dr Grottings work is impeccable. It's a very fine line when doing a facelift and I look very natural and Rested. If asked would I do it again the answer would be yes. But only with the hands of Dr Grotting. And his staff is wonderful as well. A Helms Huntsville Al

I began asking for recommendations from friends when I decided I needed to do something about my old implants. I was having discomfort and had never been happy with the size which was larger than I had requested. Dr Grotting's name was the one that I kept getting so I made an appointment. Wow! The entire experience has been perfect! He listened to my concerns and explained all of my options. I chose removal and replacement of the implant with a smaller size. The result is everything I hoped for and more! He and his staff are so kind but also completely professional. I highly recommend Dr Grotting and am very thankful to him for my excellent outcome.

Today I am 6 weeks and 2 days past my surgery date. The procedures I had were Gliding Brow Lift, Cheek-Neck Lift, Buccal Fat Removal, Scar Revision and Fat Grafting. I am so pleased with Dr. Grotting's work. His entire team has been professional, friendly, attentive and encouraging. I haven't had any pain, just discomfort the first couple of weeks. I probably could have avoided most of that if I had taken more than 5 days of Tramadol and a 2 weeks of extra strength Tylenol, but that was a choice I made. Most of my swelling is gone and my range of movement is almost 100%. I look just like myself, just 20 years younger. What a great feeling!
