Procedures and techniques named

• Liposuction: contour refinement, not weight reductionLiposuction is a surgical procedure that removes localized fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is intended for contour refinement, not weight reduction.
• Liposuction: alone or with tummy tuck, fat graftingIn some cases, liposuction is performed alone. In others, it is combined with procedures such as a tummy tuck or fat grafting when additional contour refinement or skin tightening is necessary.
• Liposuction: general or IV sedation, local small areasLiposuction is typically performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. Smaller areas may be treated under local anesthesia in select cases.
• Tummy tuck: full, general anesthesiaA full tummy tuck is performed under general anesthesia.
• Tummy tuck: removes excess skin, repairs musclesLiposuction removes localized fat but does not address loose skin or muscle separation. A tummy tuck removes excess skin and repairs abdominal muscles to restore structural support.
• Breast augmentation: incision near breast foldThere are several possible locations that our Washington DC breast augmentation specialists use for the small incision that will be used for inserting the breast implant. The most frequent technique utilizes an incision made in the lower portion of the breast, near the breast fold.
• Facelift: deep plane for advanced saggingFor patients with more advanced sagging in the cheeks and midface, a deep plane facelift repositions tissue beneath the SMAS layer for a longer-lasting, natural result.
• Facelift: repositions deeper layers, not just skinA facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a customized surgical procedure that lifts and repositions the deeper layers of the face responsible for sagging and lost definition. Rather than simply pulling the skin tight, Dr. Singh’s approach elevates the underlying structure, softening heavy cheeks, improving jowls, and restoring jawline definition.
• Blepharoplasty: local with sedation or general anesthesiaBlepharoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of correction.
• Eyelid surgery: incisions within natural eyelid creaseFor upper eyelid surgery, he designs incisions within the natural eyelid crease to maintain discreet healing.
