Procedures and techniques named

Facelift: liquid version under an hourMost liquid facelift appointments take under an hour. We cleanse your skin, make markings to guide the injections, then inject the neuromodulators and fillers.
BBL: paired with salmon DNA skin treatmentFor patients seeking additional support for skin recovery and quality, BBL therapy can be paired with salmon DNA skin treatment to reinforce the skin barrier, support regeneration, and enhance hydration after light-based procedures.
Tummy Tuck: one of Dr. Lopes' specialtiesBoard-certified plastic surgeon Dr. JoAnne Lopes specializes in facelift surgery, tummy tucks, breast augmentation, liposuction, and blepharoplasty in Virginia Beach at Cosmetic Surgery Center.
Tummy Tuck: candidates include post-pregnancy, post-weight-loss skinAbdominoplasty is particularly beneficial for women who, after pregnancies, are left with excess skin and a relaxed abdominal wall.
Mommy Makeover: breast augmentation, tummy tuck, liposuctionA Mommy Makeover typically includes a combination of procedures like breast augmentation, tummy tuck, and liposuction.
MyEllevate®Cosmetic Surgery Center is one of the few practices in the Hampton Roads area to offer MyEllevate®, an innovative, minimally invasive neck lift designed to restore a smoother, more sculpted neckline without extensive surgery.
Neck lift: MyEllevate, local anesthesia, few daysUnlike a traditional surgical neck lift, MyEllevate requires no large incisions or skin excision. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia in an outpatient setting, and most patients return to normal activities within a few days.
Neck lift: MyEllevate PLUS, significant skin laxityFor patients with more significant skin laxity or excess tissue, Dr. Lopes offers MyEllevate PLUS, which combines the precision of MyEllevate with the tightening benefits of a mini neck lift.
BBL: IPL technology treats wider skin areaBBL uses advanced intense pulsed light (IPL) technology, delivering light energy that harmlessly penetrates the skin’s surface and stimulates the body’s natural healing process in the deeper layers of skin.
Blepharoplasty: tailored for patients in 20s, 30s+Whether your concerns are due to aging or inherited traits, and whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or older, Dr. Lopes’ personalized approach to blepharoplasty can be tailored to fit your unique needs.

Before you book here

Verify three things yourself, whichever practice you choose: certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, or Royal College certification (FRCSC) in Canada; whether the operating facility is accredited or the surgeon holds hospital privileges for your exact procedure; and how many of that operation they perform each year. Our guide to choosing a plastic surgeon covers how to check each one.
