Facelift
A facelift addresses sagging skin and wrinkles in the cheeks and neck by tightening underlying tissue and muscles. This procedure restores facial harmony, creating a refreshed, youthful appearance without an over-pulled look. Ideal for patients seeking long-term rejuvenation through surgical intervention.
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty corrects drooping eyelids, puffiness, and excess skin to enhance eye appearance and potentially improve vision. By addressing aging signs around the eyes, this procedure revitalizes facial expression and reduces fatigue-related aesthetics.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat cells non-invasively, targeting areas like the abdomen and love handles. This FDA-cleared treatment offers gradual, natural-looking body contouring without surgery or downtime.
Botox
Botox injections temporarily reduce dynamic wrinkles by relaxing facial muscles, smoothing frown lines and crow's feet. Results appear within days and last up to four months, providing a refreshed, youthful appearance.
Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Fractional CO2 laser treatment improves skin texture, tone, and pigmentation by stimulating collagen production. This resurfacing technique addresses sun damage, fine lines, and scars for a radiant, even complexion.

Had a skin tag on my eyelid removed. Pretty sensitive area. The good Dr and his staff did an excellent job. He also answered any questions I had. The process was afordable and painless. Highly recommend.

Report
I do not recommend Dr. Ben Hugo or his practice. The practice is run inefficiently with one side of the office competing with the other for patient rooms, sending out confusing text messages and receiving phone calls about conflicting appointment times and generally poor management. Examples are: having me leave the room so the aesthetician could use it, scheduling a carpet cleaning company to come during regular business hours thereby blocking the exit that is used for post op patients (can't use a wheelchair causing the patient to have to navigate curbs, grass and other cars while still partially sedated.) The anesthesia used was ineffective.
I spent an hour in tears asking for more medication and being told to hold still or "I might make an error". More meds would have worked! What they did give me were 5 pills: 1 pill to calm the nerves and 4 opioid pills for pain. Patient anesthesia should be catered for that specific patient; it was the most traumatic experience of my life. Bottom line: while I believe Dr Hugo to be a competent physician, there were just too many issues with practice management and adequate pain control during the procedure.

Unfortunately, I was given inadequate pain control for a recent procedure. When I couldn't stop crying because of the pain, I was told I had been given enough. Really? Dr. Hugo said I should sleep through the procedure. I promise that wasn't the case. Awake and in pain and my concerns were brushed aside so they could finish their half day Friday

Very Tramatic Experience, unfavorable unwelcomed behavior. This M.D. was NOT Honest with me about a Traumatic Situation that happened during A Procedure. The Dishonesty was the Deal Breaker for me. I hope this Doctor's Dishonest bedside Manner has NOT Continued, to say the least. Honesty, is Critical when putting your life in a Doctor's hands.

I've been seeing Dr. Hugo for a number of years. He is very honest, intelligent and professional. His Botox technique is by far the best I've ever had. Friends, family and strangers always ask me my secret. I send them straight to Dr. Hugo. His staff is friendly and professional as well. Don't go anywhere else!

Dr. Hugo spent a great deal of time explaining the procedure as well as the expected results. His stellar reputation, calm demeanor, and honesty were a welcome change from my consultations with other cosmetic surgeons. I can't speak highly enough about my experience. From the initial consultation to the post procedure follow up, Dr. Hugo and his staff provided exceptional care with phenomenal results.
