Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using implants or fat transfer. Ideal for post-pregnancy restoration, asymmetry correction, or personal preference, this procedure boosts confidence with natural contours. Our approach prioritizes safety, incision placement, and implant selection tailored to body proportions.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery removes excess abdominal skin and tightens muscles. It addresses post-weight loss or postpartum changes, creating a flatter, firmer profile. We combine liposuction for optimal contouring, ensuring long-lasting results with proper postoperative care.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty refines nasal shape, size, or function. Whether correcting breathing issues or enhancing facial harmony, our technique balances aesthetic goals with anatomical integrity. Recovery includes swelling management and follow-up care for optimal healing.
Buttock Augmentation
Buttock augmentation enhances shape through implants or fat grafting. We prioritize proportion and symmetry, using advanced techniques for implant placement or autologous fat transfer. Recovery involves avoiding pressure on the area for proper healing.
Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery rejuvenates tired eyes by removing excess skin or fat. It addresses puffiness, bags, or drooping lids, offering a refreshed appearance. Our method preserves natural contours while improving functional vision and aesthetics.

What should I look for in a plastic surgeon?
Ensure the surgeon is board-certified, has procedure-specific experience, and demonstrates clear communication. Review before-and-after photos, patient testimonials, and verify hospital privileges for safety and expertise.
Can I combine multiple procedures?
Combining procedures like a mommy makeover (tummy tuck, breast lift, liposuction) is common for comprehensive results. Suitability depends on health and procedure complexity, with anesthesia time limited to 6-7 hours.

Consultations discuss goals, medical history, and procedure details. Dr. Makhlouf explains risks, recovery, and personalized plans. Financing options and follow-up care are reviewed to ensure informed decisions.

I had a very pleasant experience getting botox here. The staff is very knowledgeable and nice. There was minimal discomfort during the whole process. I got my 11 lines done and a lip flip. I have gotten my 11 lines done before and this experience was much more comfortable than my last. This was my first time doing a lip flip and again, it was a very comfortable experience. the whole process took about 10-15 minutes and the results began to show very shortly after. I'm very satisfied with my results, I can't recommend this place enough :

Yesterday I got my first lip fillers! I am so in love with them. The service was amazing, smooth, and the staff was very welcoming and friendly. The process took about 30-40 minutes and it was painless! I have zero bruising on my lips because of how gently they were injected. The doctor walked me through the process and answered all of my questions. I highly recommend this place. They're trustworthy and the results are 100% worth it. Es primira ves que me pongo rellenos en los labios y me encanto. No me dolio, y me quedaron super naturales. Maria es excelente y Allyson me explico tambien todo muy bien! Los super recomiendo!

I had a tummy tuck with Dr. Makhlouf and i love my results. By recovery was really smooth, I thought I was going to be in a lot of pain but 9 days later I was able to go back to dancing.

Dr. Makhlouf and his staff were great to be involved with. I had major pain and issues with my feet and hands for many years and couldn't find anyone that could help me. The good doctor took care of me and for the first time in as long as I can remember I am pain free. Going to Dr. Maklouf was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Thank you to the staff and the doctor!

I am very happy with my result and Dr. Makhlouf was an excellent surgeon. His entire staff was amazing and was there every step of the way. I had an upper blepharoplasty and makeup application is so much easier and better.
