CoolSculpting is a revolutionary non-surgical contouring procedure that freezes your fat away easily and safely. While some other treatments may require surgery and downtime for recovery, CoolSculpting targets clumps of fat cells located close to the surface. The technology cools the target area, causing the fat cells to freeze and begin degrading while the other tissues, including your skin and blood vessels, remain healthy and unaffected. Your body then removes the dead fat cells naturally while you go right back to your daily activities.

A facelift removes excess, "saggy" skin from the face and neck to smooth out wrinkles and restore a more youthful appearance to the face, neck and jawline. A variety of techniques are available to accomplish this, including skin-only, mini-facelift and traditional facelift/neck lift. If desired, facelifts can be combined with additional procedures, such as blepharoplasty (eyelid tightening), facial fat injections or chemical peels for facial skin rejuvenation.Bruising typically resolves in one to two weeks with patients often returning to normal, low stress activity during that time.

Breast Augmentation is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures at Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona. Designed to enhance the size and shape of the breasts, augmentation entails the placement of an implant through an incision typically located under the crease of the breast. The size and type of implant will be decided by you after a thorough discussion with your surgeon during consultation. The procedure usually takes 60-90 minutes with patients often returning to normal activity in several days.
