- Medical Weight LossThigh reduction procedures are needed in patients with excessive skin and fat tissues in the inner thighs. After massive weight loss, inner thigh skin and fat can become excessively loose and flabby. The goal with thigh reduction is to tighten the skin and remove any excess tissue. Some patients have fat/skin tissue that descends way down past their knees and these procedures are tailor-made, to account for the various levels of excess. Some patients may need a small horizontal and vertical excision high in the upper thigh area, while others require longer incisions that sometimes go past the knees. It is important to appreciate that patients requiring longer incisions had been heavier than those who require smaller incisions to have a good outcome. After the procedure many patients find that the thighs have been lifted into a more youthful and attractive position.

- Reconstructive SurgeryWhen reconstructive surgery is performed immediately following mastectomy, a breast mound is created in place of the breast that has been removed. This is done in the hospital under general anesthesia.
- BotoxBOTOX® Cosmetic is commonly used to reduce or eliminate the appearance of facial wrinkles. It is injected under the skin into areas surrounding the eyes, forehead and mouth to smooth crow's feet, frown and worry lines, and lines on the neck. Made from a purified protein, BOTOX® relaxes wrinkles and gives the face a rejuvenated look. BOTOX® may also be useful for migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and eye and neck muscle spasms.
- Brow LiftBrow Lifts and Forehead Lifts raise eyebrows and reduce ridges and furrows on the forehead, thus creating a smoother, more youthful appearance. This procedure can be performed in conjunction with other surgeries.
- Eyelid SurgeryAny one or combination of the following conditions may indicate that you are a good candidate for eyelid surgery...
- LiposuctionAbdominal etching is a technique using differential liposculpture where detailed body fat is removed enhancing the shapely figure of the underlying muscles of the abdomen. These muscles are typically unseen or smothered under 1 to 2 inches of fat. The goal with this procedure is to create the so-called “six-pack” abdomen. Candidates for abdominal etching are highly disciplined males who work out daily and maintain a low fat diet. To achieve the washboard abdomen, deep, intermediate, and superficial liposuction are used. The procedure has been performed in females, but leaves a somewhat unnatural look.
- Breast AugmentationYou have a choice between silicone gel breast implants or saline filled breast implants. The newest generation of FDA approved breast implants are available to give you a choice in choosing a safe, natural-looking and beautiful breast enhancement. Dr Soueid will help you decide on which breast implants are the best options for your Baltimore breast augmentation.
- Breast ReductionLarge breasts can cause pain, improper posture, rashes, breathing problems, skeletal deformities, and low self-esteem.Breast reduction plastic surgery is usually done to provide relief from these symptoms. Performed under general anesthesia, the two- to four-hour procedure removes fat and glandular tissue and tightens skin to produce smaller, lighter breasts that are in a healthier proportion to the rest of the body.
- Breast LiftThe vertical breast lift technique is ideally suited for saggy breasts that are wide and have a nipple that requires greater than 6 centimeters of lift. The vertical incision is made along with a periareolar incision. The breast gland can be reshaped and lifted through these incisions with or without the use of breast implants. With a vertical breast lift, the nipple can be lifted 6 to 10 centimeters. The wide breast skin is removed and the breast is molded into a more beautiful shape. Skin closure is made without creating a lot of tension. When there is little skin tension, there is usually great healing and, in most cases, the incisions begin to fade soon after surgery. The vertical incision technique can be used in patients who previously would have required a wise pattern breast lift or lollipop incision and is considered to be a state-of-the-art, minimally incision alternative than more extensive plastic surgery procedures.
- Breast ReconstructionBreast reconstruction usually involves more than one operation, and follow up procedures may be performed on an outpatient basis. Follow-up procedures may only require local anesthesia, and often involve a skin expander with a breast implant, and reconstruction of the nipple and areola. Sometimes surgery is the performed on the natural breast to match the reconstructed breast; however, this creates additional scars.

- Thigh LiftPlastic surgery after major weight loss includes a variety of procedures performed after a patient has lost a significant amount of weight. These cosmetic procedures include body lift,thigh lift, arm tuck, tummy tuck, breast lift, face lift, liposuction and more.
- Face LiftIn time, gravity, sun exposure, and the stresses of daily life take their toll on our faces: deep creases appear beside the mouth, the jaw line slackens, and folds and fat deposits appear on the neck. Facelifts and Necklifts counteract these problems by removing fat and tightening skin and muscles, giving your face a fresher, youthful look. Incisions are made in inconspicuous places such as behind the hairline and in natural folds of the face and ears, and scars fade to near invisibility in time. After surgery, some patients appear 10-15 years younger.
- BlepharoplastyThe eyelids are often the first facial feature to show signs of aging resulting in a sad, tired appearance even in the most energetic individual. Blepharoplasty, a surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the eyelids, can return that youthful elegance to your face, making the eyes appear brighter and more refreshed. The eyelids can be considered separately, but it is usually most beneficial for patients to have both eyelids treated simultaneously. When the entire area around the eyes is treated together, the transformation is truly dramatic.
- AbdominoplastyAbdominoplasty, or a “tummy tuck,” is designed to correct a protruding abdomen resulting from weak abdominal muscles, weight gain or pregnancy. Obesity causes the skin to lose its elasticity. These conditions may not respond well to diet or exercise if the skin and underlying muscles have been stretched.
- Body LiftThe body lift procedure is designed to treat excess fat and saggy skin of the torso, hip and thigh regions. Classically, these patients have a pear-shaped body and accumulate fat and excess skin in the mid to lower abdominal area, flanks, back, hips and outer thighs. Frequently, severe sagginess is identified in the hips and outer thigh area, which is effectively lifted and repositioned into a more aesthetic and youthful position with this procedure. Any sagginess that occurs in the pubic region and genitalia is also treated at the time of body lift. Several weeks before surgery, all patients receive an extensive medical and metabolic analysis. The day before surgery, patients are asked to come into the office for markings. It takes about 30 to 45 minutes to completely mark and prepare a patient for the next day's surgery. Once marked, the special ink used will not come off and patients can take a shower with Hibiclens® to reduce the chances of infection. These markings are reinforced with the same ink pen the morning of surgery.
