Overview of Body Enhancement Procedures
In a perfect world, we would all feel completely comfortable with our bodies. All of our various parts would complement each other and function harmoniously, and no one would ever feel self-conscious or embarrassed about his or her appearance. But ours, of course, is not a perfect world, and most of us have parts of our bodies that are nagging sources of dissatisfaction. Thankfully, aesthetic surgery offers a wide range of possible solutions.
Modern technology has made it more possible than ever to target specific problem areas of the body, allowing them to be treated with minimal pain, scarring, and investment of time for the patient. Indeed, recent advances have made it possible to perform many procedures without incision, minimizing recovery time while optimizing results.
Dr. Pyo has carefully chosen the phrase "body contouring" to describe the procedures listed on this page. Precision, detail, and refinement are Dr. Pyo's trademarks, as hundreds of patients have discovered for themselves. His delicate touch and commitment to balance, safety, and detail have resulted in a history of satisfied, grateful patients.

Overview of Facial Procedures
The face is usually one of the first and most obvious places on the human body to show signs of aging. Quite often, these signs are premature, brought on by stress, environment, and other external factors. It is common for perfectly healthy, active people to look older or more tired than they actually are. Inside, they may feel young and energetic, yet their faces fail to reflect this. For many people, this can lead to an overwhelming sense of imbalance, making them feel self-conscious about their appearance.
If this scenario sounds familiar, facial rejuvenation treatment may be your best option. Because individual needs vary from patient to patient, Dr. Pyo offers a complete range of procedures, from non-surgical treatments to minimally invasive surgeries. Whether you require a single procedure or a more comprehensive plan, Dr. Pyo will help you establish realistic goals to enhance the natural beauty of your face. The results will be discreet and absolutely natural looking, restoring youth and vitality to your appearance, as well as balance and harmony to your life.
Combining skill, experience, and a keen eye for detail, Dr. Pyo customizes treatment to the individual needs and goals of his patients. No two faces are exactly alike; therefore, no two procedures should be exactly alike. He takes particular pride in being able to enhance ethnic beauty, a rare skill among plastic surgeons.

Breast Augmentation - Enlargement with Implants
Breast augmentation surgery is one of the most popular, yet least understood, of all cosmetic procedures. Many people are convinced that breast implants are inherently unsafe and "fake" looking. However, under the skilled supervision of an experienced surgeon like Dr. Pyo, breast augmentation surgery is remarkably safe, producing results that are indistinguishable from natural breasts. Indeed, you may soon forget you ever had the surgery performed.
Dr. Pyo does not view breast augmentation as simply a process of giving his patients "bigger" breasts. Rather, he sees it as an opportunity to enhance their natural beauty, providing balance between their breasts and the rest of their bodies. As a result, many of his patients have emerged feeling not only more attractive and feminine, but also more complete and "at-home" in their bodies.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Over time, the effects of gravity and the loss of the skin's natural elasticity begin to have an effect on the appearance of a woman's breasts. These factors, along with pregnancy, nursing, and substantial changes in weight, can cause the breasts to lose their youthful shape and firmness.
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure in which excess skin and tissue are trimmed away and the bust line is tightened and lifted. Remaining tissue and the nipples are then repositioned to create the most natural-looking results. The procedure can also reduce the size of the areola (the darker skin surrounding the nipple). If a patient wishes, the breast lift can be combined with breast implants to increase both firmness and size.

Breast Reduction
Large, pendulous breasts may cause a woman to experience various medical problems as a result of the excessive weight of the breast tissue. Problems with posture, back and neck pain, skin irritation, and breathing are common with this condition. Bra straps often leave painful indentations on the shoulders. Many women, particularly younger women, feel self-conscious and embarrassed if they have uncommonly large breasts.
Breast reduction is a procedure in which excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin are removed, resulting in smaller, lighter, and firmer breasts that are more proportionate to the rest of the body.

Breast Reconstruction
In addition to cosmetic breast surgery, Dr. Pyo specializes in breast reconstruction, helping those who have had mastectomies or suffered damage to their breasts recover their natural shape and appearance. Aside from his technical expertise, Dr. Pyo is sensitive and patient, removing some of the stress from what might otherwise be a traumatic time in a patient's life.
Dr. Pyo offers the following options to patients in need of breast reconstruction surgery: expander/implants, TRAM flaps, free TRAM - muscle sparing, and microsurgical reconstruction.

Vaser® Liposelection
Fat deposits can be stubborn and persistent. They can endure even the healthiest diets and most stringent exercise routines, causing many people to feel frustrated and helpless. Thankfully, the revolutionary LipoSelection system by Vaser® has made it possible to target these fat deposits without the need for major invasive surgery. The LipoSelection system uses ultrasonic energy to dissolve fatty tissue while leaving surrounding healthy tissue intact. Dr. Pyo then removes the dissolved fat through a tiny, self-healing incision. LipoSelection is a gentler, more effective alternative to traditional liposuction, resulting in far less pain and bruising. The once problematic area will be smooth and show few if any signs that fat was removed.

Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Generally referred to as a "tummy tuck," abdominoplasty removes excess fat and skin from the abdomen. The procedure also helps to flatten the abdomen by tightening the surrounding muscles. It can be particularly beneficial to women who have stretched abdominal areas due to previous pregnancies, though they should have completed their childbearing before considering the procedure. Older individuals whose skin has lost some of its elasticity and are overweight can also benefit.
If you are in generally good physical condition but are concerned about abdominal fat deposits and loose skin that do not respond to diet and exercise, abdominoplasty can potentially reduce or even eliminate a protruding abdomen. As a result, you will look slimmer, fitter, and altogether healthier.

Thigh / Arm / Body Lift
"Lift" procedures involve the tightening of loose skin through a combination of fat extraction, removal of excess skin and tissue, and gentle stretching of the remaining skin. Using the Liposelection system to remove fat allows Dr. Pyo to perform these procedures more efficiently and effectively than ever. Indeed, in most cases, lifts can be done in a single office visit with minimal pain, scarring, or bleeding. Recovery time has also been dramatically reduced.
The purpose of a lift is to target specific areas of the body where loose skin has collected and begun to sag, making you look older and less fit than you truly are. The thigh lift is designed to tone the thighs and tighten the buttocks, while the arm lift may be ideal for those who are self-conscious about drooping upper arms.
The body lift can be used effectively as a post-bariatric procedure, helping to return form and shape to the body after a sharp decrease in weight. Dramatic weight loss is often accompanied by areas of loose skin and isolated pockets of fatty tissue that don't respond to diet or exercise. The body lift provides a comprehensive solution to these problem areas, bringing your appearance into alignment with your healthy new lifestyle.
Not every person is a candidate for every kind of lift. Before undergoing a lift, you will be thoroughly evaluated by Dr. Pyo. He will honestly and openly educate you about your options and help you to establish reasonable expectations and goals. All
consultations will be completely private and confidential, and your case will be treated with the sensitivity and tact for which Dr. Pyo is known.

Botox®, Restylane, Radiance™, and Collagen Injections
Botox® injections are a safe, highly effective method of softening fine lines and other dynamic wrinkles in the face. Botox® targets the specific nerves that are responsible for these wrinkles, giving your skin a more supple, youthful appearance without disturbing those muscles that are essential to facial expression. Restylane is a clear injectable gel that is particularly effective in reducing fine lines around the lips and mouth and on the forehead. Like Botox®, it is completely safe and produces immediate results that can be repeated as necessary. Often used in conjunction with Botox® treatments, Radiance™ injections are natural and highly effective in promoting collagen growth, restoring fullness and youth to the face. Another excellent option for treating wrinkles and fine lines, Collagen injections rejuvenate the skin by restoring the fibrous protein that gives skin its elasticity. All of these injections are safe, effective, and produce excellent and immediate results. Although the results are temporary, they can safely be repeated as necessary. Contact our office today for more information about how these injectable skin care treatments can help you look and feel younger without the need for invasive surgery.

Blepharoplasty
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a procedure in which excess skin and muscle are removed from the upper and lower eyelids. This procedure can correct drooping upper lids as well as the puffy bags that often form below the eyes. In certain cases, they can even lead to improved vision. Blepharoplasty can be done as a single procedure or in conjunction with other facial surgeries, such as a facelift or a browlift.

Brow Lift
Frown lines on the forehead and creases above the nose can make you look tired, sad, angry, or even older than you truly are. These wrinkles are intensified by sun exposure, stress, heredity, and changes in weight. A brow lift allows Dr. Pyo to access the hard-to-reach muscles that cause furrow lines. By tightening and lifting forehead skin, you can eliminate these lines and achieve a more refreshed, youthful appearance.

Nose Surgery (Rhinoplasty)
Rhinoplasty allows you to change the size of your nose or to adjust the shape of the bridge, tip, or nostrils. The procedure can also be used to correct breathing abnormalities that arise due to problems with the internal structures of the nose.

Facelift (Rhytidectomy)
Many people still believe that a facelift is a radical step toward achieving beauty, a drastic procedure involving lengthy incisions and no small amount of pain.
Modern technology, however, has progressed to the point that most facelifts are relatively quick and painless, involving minimal invasion and little or no scarring. Using fiberoptic technology, Dr. Pyo can monitor the surgery on a television screen, allowing him to manipulate instruments with extreme precision. You will experience little or no discomfort, and the results will be subtle and entirely natural looking.
Many of our patients do not require a full facelift. This is why we offer partial facelifts that target specific areas of the face, such as the cheeks and the corners of the lips.
