read moreLiposuction, or lipoplasty, is a body contouring procedure that removes fat, helps you to look slimmer and improves your body's proportions. Many people have stubborn pockets of fat that diet and exercise cannot eliminate. Liposuction is ideally suited to removing these fatty deposits. While it is not a substitute for a healthy diet and exercise, it is a way to complement those things to help you look your best. Liposuction involves the use of a small instrument called a cannula to remove the fatty deposits.

The doctors of Premier Plastic Surgery Group of Utah will remove excess skin and tighten the surrounding tissue to raise and reshape your breast. This may be combined with breast augmentation to simultaneously raise and add volume to your breasts. Your specific needs will determine which type is the most appropriate.

read moreChemical peels are a very popular anti-aging option. Sun exposure, acne and age can leave your skin tone uneven, wrinkled, spotted or scarred. We recommend a chemical peel for our patients who want skin to look smoother, more even and younger, but do not need more advanced anti-aging treatments like laser skin resurfacing. A chemical peel, also called chemexfoliation or derma peeling, is one of the simplest and least invasive ways to improve the appearance of your skin. All chemical peels, regardless of strength, use a solution to smooth the texture of your skin by removing the damaged outer layers.

Dermal fillers you may have heard of include hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm as well as collagen, Artefill, Radiesse, and Sculptra. These should not be confused with muscle relaxers like BOTOX and Dysport. BOTOX and Dysport may be used for anti-aging skin care but work through a completely different process. Your skin is made of two layers, an outer layer called the epidermis and an inner layer called the dermis.

read moreTummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that tightens abdominal muscles and removes excess skin and fat in the mid-section caused by pregnancy, aging, weight fluctuation or heredity. It can change the contour of your stomach by restoring a firm, toned appearance that often can't be achieved through diet and exercise alone. There are two basic types of tummy tucks: mini and full. If loose skin and muscle are confined to the lower abdomen, a mini tummy tuck may be all that is necessary.

read moreA brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, eliminates expression lines and signs of aging on your forehead. The brow lift minimizes creases that have developed along your forehead, between your eyes or on the bridge of your nose. It is also used to improve frown lines. Often, patients will combine brow lift with blepharoplasty to both reposition a low/sagging brow and to make the eyes look more rested, alert and youthful. The doctors of Premier Plastic Surgery Group of Utah remain on the cutting edge of plastic surgery techniques, performing both the conventional brow lift (coronal brow lift) and the endoscopic brow lift.

read moreA neck lift can firm and tighten the skin below your chin that has begun to sag. As we age, our skin loses elasticity, its ability to fight gravitational effects, or snap back into place after weight fluctuations. For younger patients with more elasticity in their skin, neck liposuction alone will probably solve the problem of excess fat under the chin or a double chin. With patients whose skin doesn't have the elasticity, a neck lift can be performed to gently pull this skin below the chin back into place, restoring a more youthful and contoured neck and jawline.
