SOFT GENTLE BEAUTY

Breast augmentation in San Francisco, CA is a popular choice among women seeking to enhance their breasts, with the goal of increasing fullness, restoring shape, achieving balanced body proportions, and improving self-confidence and overall satisfaction. This can be achieved using carefully selected implants or the patient’s own body fat. At Ethos Plastic Surgery, we believe in “small breast beauty,” a concept that prioritizes shape over size to achieve a naturally enhanced appearance that complements the body’s proportions. Following implant surgery, our commitment to our patients’ well-being includes peace of mind implant surveillance with long-term ultrasound follow-up. Dr. Xu also offers a minimally invasive approach without implants and the option for “awake” natural breast augmentation (fat transfer breast augmentation) using local anesthesia.

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that can completely reshape your tummy and create a tighter, smoother abdomen by addressing excess skin and stretched abdominal muscles – issues that are commonly caused by pregnancy or weight changes. San Francisco plastic surgeon, Dr. Xu, can help patients reveal their muscle definition and restore their waistline in ways that are not possible to achieve through exercise and diet alone. Additional benefits of the procedure include strengthened core muscles, reduced back pain, and improved posture. Liposuction can also be added to surrounding areas for further contouring of the waistline and hips in a 360-degree approach. A mini tummy tuck, which leaves the navel and surrounding tissue untouched, is a less invasive option for suitable candidates that results in a quicker recovery time and minimal scarring.

Liposuction surgery is a transformative procedure for those seeking to redefine their body contours and achieve their desired silhouette in San Francisco, CA. Liposuction targets and sculpts stubborn fat pockets in areas where genetics may have predisposed individuals to accumulate excess fat, such as the abdomen, waistline, love handles, bra rolls, back, arms, thighs, and more. Liposuction can be particularly beneficial for those struggling with unwanted fat deposits that persist despite weight loss and exercise, and it can also be an effective way to “jump start” your fitness goals. When performed by a skilled surgeon like Dr. Ginger Xu, advanced techniques such as awake liposuction and power-assisted liposuction can provide enhanced results. With her keen eye for natural and elegant results, Dr. Xu has earned a reputation throughout the Bay Area for delivering long-lasting, impactful liposuction results that align with her patients’ goals.

San Francisco facelift and neck lift surgery are powerful and elegant procedures that rejuvenate your appearance while preserving the unique characteristics that make you look recognizably yourself. With a facelift, Dr. Xu can restore youthful contours and impart a natural-appearing lift to your face, all while using well-hidden incisions that become imperceptible over time. A neck lift procedure will create a more defined and sculpted chin, neck, and jawline with natural transitions and smooth, lifted skin. These procedures are safe and customizable to address your specific concerns, and they can be performed alone or in conjunction to optimize results. Dr. Xu’s Harvard training specifically focused on facelift and necklift surgery, which allows her to feel confident in her ability to provide top-quality results.

If your breasts have become deflated or lost their shape due to breastfeeding, weight loss, or time-related changes, a breast lift in San Francisco can help restore a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing shape. Breast lift surgery elevates and reshapes the breasts and nipples through the removal of excess skin and tightening of the remaining tissues. If you feel that your breasts are too large or heavy for your frame and causing discomfort or limiting physical activities, a breast reduction can dramatically improve your quality of life by reducing their size, reshaping their contours and lifting them to a higher position on your chest. This procedure both lifts and reduces the breasts, creating a balanced and rejuvenated appearance that can enhance confidence and the ability to enjoy life.

Fat transfer is an effective technique that involves removing excess fat from a secondary location such as the thighs, hips, or stomach through liposuction, purifying the fat, and injecting it into either the breasts or the buttocks to enhance fullness and volume. This procedure is particularly suitable for patients interested in liposuction to remove fat from unwanted areas. Fat transfer to the breasts is a natural option for women seeking a subtle increase in breast size and shape, and a good alternative for those who wish to avoid implants. Fat Transfer Butt Augmentation, or Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), similarly uses the patient’s own fat as a natural and safe way to increase the size and enhance the contours of the buttocks. Reshaping of the waistline and flanks which is typically done during the liposuction part of a BBL procedure also leads to a more hourglass contour. Dr. Xu’s signature Bay-Area beauty approach to Brazilian butt lift surgery focuses on producing natural results that never look artificial or overdone. Of particular mention is that Dr. Xu is one of few trained surgeons who can perform all fat transfer and liposuction procedures with her patients “awake,” without the need for general anesthesia.

This comprehensive solution provides transformative results that exceed what diet and exercise can achieve. Common procedures included in a mommy makeover plan are c-section scar revision, tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, liposuction, and include additional options such as post-weight loss body contouring, buttock augmentation, and facial rejuvenation. Each San Francisco mommy makeover surgical plan is unique and customized to the individual patient. The best part of a mommy makeover is that the benefits go well beyond just physical changes; women often regain their sense of self and experience a profoundly positive impact on their mental and emotional well-being.
