Understanding Different Types of Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery offers a range of procedures designed to enhance appearance, boost self-confidence, and improve overall well-being. Here's a closer look at some popular types of plastic surgery and the services provided by Webb Plastic Surgery.

Popular Types of Plastic Surgery

1. Facelifts
- Objective: Reduce visible signs of aging on the face and neck.
- Procedure: Removal of excess skin and tightening underlying tissues to address sagging, deep creases, and jowls.

2. Rhinoplasty
- Objective: Reshape the nose for cosmetic improvement or to correct breathing issues.
- Procedure: Alteration of the nose’s shape, size, and proportions to address issues like bumps, bulbous tips, or structural problems such as a deviated septum.

3. Breast Augmentation
- Objective: Increase breast size and improve shape.
- Procedure: Use of implants or fat transfer to enhance natural proportions, restore volume after pregnancy or weight loss, and achieve better symmetry.

4. Liposuction
- Objective: Remove stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise.
- Procedure: Fat removal from areas like the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, and chin to contour and refine body shape.

5. Tummy Tuck
- Objective: Remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area while tightening underlying muscles.
- Procedure: Particularly beneficial for those who have experienced significant weight loss or women post-pregnancy, helping to restore a firmer, flatter stomach.

6. Blepharoplasty
- Objective: Improve the appearance of the eyelids.
- Procedure: Correct droopy upper eyelids and puffy bags under the eyes by removing excess skin and fat to achieve a more alert and youthful look.

7. Mommy Makeover
