- ArthritisWhen measurable outcomes were investigated (i.e., ANA for inflammatory disease), there has been no consistent improvement in ANA or symptoms after implant removal, and studies have shown that rheumatoid arthritis continues to progress (i.e., worsen) despite implant removal. Some studies have demonstrated improvement in rheumatologic symptoms for a short period of time (6-12 months), but those symptoms recurred 1 year after implant removal. We share this so that you can make a truly informed decision prior to removing your implants.

- UltrasoundUltherapy is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive procedure to lift the neck, chin, and brow, and it improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy delivered precisely to the place where it will benefit you most and provide natural-looking results that improve over time. This effective treatment complements our surgical rejuvenation procedures and stands alone as a non-surgical treatment. Ultherapy relies on ultrasound therapy to go deeper than other non-invasive treatments for collagen stimulation with no downtime.
- Computed TomographyMany times the answer is ‘Yes,’ but Dr. Bailey and Dr. Morton will get a specialized scan (CT scan) of your abdomen to make sure you are a candidate prior to surgery.
- General SurgeryNo two patients are exactly alike, and our surgeons tailor our surgical services accordingly. For most patients, the tummy tuck procedure will follow this basic trajectory.
- Ear SurgeryDuring your initial consultation, you will have the opportunity to meet with one of our surgeons for a physical examination and a review of your medical history. Your doctor will use this information to confirm your eligibility for ear surgery and outline your treatment plan.
- Reconstructive SurgeryIf you are dissatisfied with your appearance or need restorative care after surviving cancer, plastic or reconstructive surgery may be the answer. Our doctors are highly trained and experienced, combining an artistic eye with clinical precision to deliver natural-looking results.

- BotoxPrescription BOTOX® injections reduce muscle activity to temporarily prevent the contraction of the muscles that cause wrinkles without changing the appearance of your face. After receiving BOTOX at Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeons, you see natural-looking results that last up to four months. Untreated muscles still operate normally, and your overall ability to form facial expressions remains intact. You will still be able to face the world with a smile.
- Brow LiftThe brow lift begins with the administration of anesthesia, ensuring your comfort. Incisions are made strategically, often behind the hairline, to minimize visible scarring. Your surgeon can then access underlying muscle and tissue, removing excess tissue and pulling the remaining tissue tight. During the recovery, you can expect some swelling and bruising, which will clear up within a couple of weeks.
- Eyelid SurgeryBlepharoplasty is eyelid surgery to improve the appearance of upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both and to give a rejuvenated appearance to the surrounding area of your eyes, making you look more rested and alert.
- LiposuctionIf you have excess subcutaneous fat, particularly fat that resists diet and rigorous exercise, you may be a good candidate for liposuction. Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeons offers liposuction treatments to remove excess fat and recontour your body in Renton, Maple Valley, and the surrounding area.
- Breast AugmentationFor example, this purified fat can be used to provide fullness and definition to the cheeks and face while eliminating fat deposits in the thighs or abdomen. Additionally, fat grafting can be used to provide volume during breast augmentation if you decide not to have implants.
- Breast ReductionEnlarged, heavy, or burdensome breasts, known as macromastia, can lead to physical discomfort, neck and back pain, increased propensity for skin infections, and difficulty finding clothing that fits. Breast reduction (or reduction mammoplasty) is the surgical removal of breast tissue to reduce the size of breasts. This procedure removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body and to alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts. At Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeons, we help patients experience lasting relief via breast reduction surgery. We serve the communities of Renton and Maple Valley.
- Breast LiftIf you have noticed your breasts beginning to sag or your nipples starting to droop, you are an ideal candidate for a breast lift. Additionally, you should be in good health overall, be finished having children, and be willing to accept faint scars on your breasts to achieve a better and more youthful breast shape. Of course, you should have a consultation with our plastic surgeons at Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeons to determine if a breast lift is right for you.

- AbdominoplastyLoose and excess skin around the abdomen can be a common source of frustration after pregnancy.
