Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery procedures with board-certified surgeons in Austin, Round Rock, and Houston.

At Westlake Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery we believe that everyone deserves to feel confident in their appearance, which is why our plastic surgeons are committed to helping patients achieve their desired look. Patients come to our convenient Austin, Lamar Central, and Round Rock locations to undergo the latest techniques practiced under the hands of our highly experienced surgeons.

Face Procedures

Our team is proud to offer advanced cosmetic surgery procedures like brow lift surgery, facelift, eyelid surgery and neck lift surgery to help patients reverse the visual effects of aging. Our board certified surgeons also offer rhinoplasty procedures to enhance the appearance of the nose. By blending art and science, our facial plastic surgery procedures provide natural, attractive, and long-lasting results.

Breast Procedures

Plastic surgery procedures for the breasts include breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction surgery. Breast surgery can counteract the effects of pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or simple aging which can alter the appearance of the breasts. Our surgeons are dedicated to helping patients modify their breasts and cleavage to feel more confident, comfortable and beautiful, whether that includes lifting or increasing or decreasing the size of the breasts.

Body Procedures

Our surgical body contouring treatments include tumescent liposuction, Vaser high def liposuction, Smartlipo, fat transfer, and tummy tuck surgery (abdominoplasty) to tighten and contour the body. Whether it’s removing stubborn body fat that is resistant to diet and exercise or correcting loose skin that occurs after weight loss, our passion is helping patients achieve the results they’ve always wanted.

Who Is An Ideal Candidate For Plastic Surgery?

The ideal candidate for plastic surgery is a healthy non-smoker with realistic expectations regarding the limits of cosmetic surgery. A well-informed patient not only heals faster, but is more likely to report satisfaction with their end results.

Are Plastic Surgery Results Permanent? 

Having made an investment both financially and in terms of recovery time, people understandably have questions regarding how long their procedure will last. Most plastic surgery procedures are performed just once over the course of someone’s lifetime. Results can still wane over time, however, as aging inevitably continues.

The following tips can help you extend the life of your plastic surgery results:

  • Maintain Your General Health – Your body’s overall health is reflected in your skin. To help maintain the youthful results of your procedure, exercise regularly, eat a healthy, balanced diet, and keep yourself hydrated.
  • Maintain A Healthy Body Weight – Dramatic changes to your body weight (both weight gain and weight loss) will alter the look of your cosmetic surgery results. To maintain results, eat well and exercise daily.
  • Protect Your Skin – Sun damage is the single most common cause of visible aging. Protecting your skin from the sun and beginning an anti-aging skin care routine can help maintain cosmetic surgery results longer.
  • Quit Smoking – Nicotine in any form closes capillaries and prevents much needed oxygen and nutrients from reaching the skin. Those who refrain from the use of nicotine products keep their skin youthful longer.
  • Limit Alcohol Intake – Alcohol is a diuretic which dries out skin, making it appear older. It’s also inflammatory and reddening, even after just one night of heavy drinking. Eliminating this common source of excess calories can also help you maintain body weight for extended plastic surgery results.
  • Consider Non-Surgical Procedures – Non-surgical procedures such as Botox or dermal fillers, skin resurfacing treatments, CoolTone and CoolSculpting contribute greatly to the maintenance of your plastic surgery procedure.

How Long Does Recovery Take?

Recovery time can differ greatly depending on the procedure performed as well as the patient’s genetics, health and age at the time of the procedure. More extensive procedures tend to require longer recovery time. Our team works with each individual patient to ensure a quick and easy recovery period.

What Financing Options Are Available? 

When considering operating room costs, anesthesia, physician fees, surgical materials (such as implants), post-surgical devices and medications, plastic surgery can be costly.

We offer financing through Prosper Healthcare Lending and CareCredit, each of which allows patients to pay for their procedure in monthly interest-free or low-interest (depending on plan selected) installments. Applying for financing takes just a few minutes with an easy online application.

Complimentary Consultations

A cosmetic consultation is an important step in the process of making decisions for a plastic surgery procedure. During your consultation, we will discuss the treatment options, answer any of your questions, and go over pricing and payment options. Complimentary consultations are available with our cosmetic consultant team at select locations.  Our physicians are also available for consultations (for a fee).
