Facelifts, also known as rhytidectomies, offer those wishing to improve their appearance dramatically. There are several facelift procedures, but simple facelifts do not result in the ‘wind-tunnel’ effect or ‘surprised look’ that is sometimes caused by more extreme facelifts.

Laser hair removal works by transmitting a beam of laser light into a group of hair follicles in a process called photothermolysis. This beam has enough power to destroy or disable the root of the hair, but it does not harm the skin around it. This is possible because the light targets only the hair. While the root of the hair is destroyed through heat, the surrounding skin is generally cooled with a cooling tip, a gel, or a spray.

The tummy tuck, known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure in which excess fat and skin is removed from the abdomen. This procedure can make a major improvement to the looks of anyone who has protruding abdominal muscles, as it will help tighten the muscles in the abdomen. Tummy tucks have become quite common for both men and women alike, especially those who have gone through a dramatic weight loss and are left with extra fat and a saggy tummy. The final result is a flatter and smoother abdomen.
