- Medical Weight LossWe also encourage patients who intend to lose a lot of weight to wait before undergoing the procedure, since skin in the abdominal area typically loosens after substantial weight loss.

- RhinoplastyRhinoplasty may be performed for functional rather than cosmetic reasons as well. Combining nose reshaping with septoplasty or endoscopic sinus surgery can effectively treat certain breathing problems, such as those caused by a deviated septum, turbinate problems and “nasal valve” collapse.
- Plastic SurgeryRhinoplasty, or nose surgery, is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed today. It can reshape, reduce or augment a person’s nose to achieve facial harmony and boost self-confidence. It may be performed as a reconstructive procedure to correct a birth defect or an injury such as a broken nose.
- Face LiftPatients unhappy with the changing appearance of their face may seek relief through a facelift. This time-tested procedure targets the mid- to lower face, including the cheeks, mouth, jawline, chin and neck. Ideal candidates are usually those in their 40s, 50s or 60s looking to reverse the early signs of aging in the face, are generally healthy and have realistic expectations for surgery.
- AbdominoplastyAbdominoplasty, often called a “tummy tuck,” is a popular procedure used to flatten and shape the abdomen by removing excess fat and skin and tightening muscles. Dr. Wortham has been performing tummy tucks with excellent cosmetic results for many years. Our patients love the look of their new flat stomachs after surgery under the exceptional care by the doctors and staff at Cosmetic Surgical Arts.
- Nose SurgeryDr. Wortham uses one of two techniques when performing nose surgery. In a closed rhinoplasty, incisions are made only within the nostrils. In an open rhinoplasty, an incision is also made across the columella, the tissue between the nostrils. With both methods, they gently lift the soft tissues covering the nose and sculpt the bone and cartilage to the desired shape. Any additional cartilage needed to augment the nose can often be taken from the septum.
- Body ContouringYour surgeon will make two incisions: one from hip-bone to hip-bone close to the pubic area, and another around the navel. They will separate the skin from the abdominal muscles, which are then pulled together and stitched into place for a firmer abdomen and narrower waist. The skin flap is then stretched down and over the newly tightened muscles, excess skin is removed, and the navel is reattached in a natural position. Finally, your surgeon will close the incisions and apply sterile surgical dressings over the sutured areas. As with all of our cosmetic body contouring procedures that require incisions, we utilize Mepitel silicone sheeting after surgery and recommend solid silicone sheeting after a few weeks to optimize the appearance of the scar.
- Cosmetic SurgeryLast year, nose jobs, or rhinoplasties, were the third most popular cosmetic surgery, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. If you have a scheduled procedure coming up with Dr. Wortham or are considering going under the knife to change the shape, size or general appearance of your nose, it’s important to consider a few things to make your recovery as smooth as possible.
