- Medical Weight LossKeep in mind that liposuction does not remove wrinkles or aging signs. It is also not to be used as a method of weight loss. Instead, liposuction strictly removes areas of excess fat from the face and body to contour them.
- Depression
- Mental HealthThis notice will tell you about the ways in which Kim Facial Plastic Surgery may use and disclose medical information about you. Your medical information, also referred to as "protected health information" is that information about you, including demographic information, that may identify you and that relates to your past, present or future physical or mental health information and related health care services.
- Wound CareGenerally, scar revision is a procedure done in our office suite under local anesthesia. Patients will be able to return to normal activity within a day or two. Minor discomfort, swelling, bruising, and redness are common with this type of surgery. Scarring is unpredictable, even after revision surgery, and the degree of improvement depends on many variables (e.g., size and depth of wound, nature and quality of the skin, direction of the scar, and wound care following surgery). Optimum effects may not be completely evident for a year or more following surgery.
- Ear SurgeryOtoplasty does not alter hearing ability. The ear surgery is performed on the outside portion of the ears to provide better proportion of the ears to the size and shape of the face and head.
- OtolaryngologyPlastic surgeon Dr. Kun Kim earned his MD degree from Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia and completed his post-graduate training in Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery and Facial Plastic Surgery at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, MD.

- Eyelid SurgeryEyelid surgery improves the aged appearance caused by droopy eyelids and puffiness. The procedure may be done on the upper or lower eyelids or both and involves removing excess fat, muscle, and skin to reveal a more refreshed, younger, and well-rested expression.
- LiposuctionLiposuction is a cosmetic procedure that removes fat that you can't seem to get rid of through diet and exercise. Dr. Kim will tailor your liposuction needs to remove fat from your hips, belly, thighs, buttocks, arms, back, or face to improve the shape.

- Laser ResurfacingHow does it work? Laser resurfacing traumatizes the outer layer of skin, which promotes new skin growth, giving you a younger, fresher layer of surface skin. Laser procedures are sometimes combined with Obagi treatments to treat Acne scars, Sun damage, and Stretch marks.
- Cosmetic Surgery**Insurance does not usually cover cosmetic surgery, although surgery to improve the ear may be considered reconstructive if due to birth defect or injury. Otoplasty may possibly be reimbursable by major medical insurance. It is the patient’s responsibility to seek approval from his/her insurance carrier.
