Perioral rejuvenation (correction of signs of aging around the mouth which include deep lines of the lips, chin, and cheeks).

Modalities for lip enhancement include Restylane, Hylaform, collagen, and Fat Transfers. These Procedures are done in-office with minimal discomfort using anesthesia).

Nose Reshaping (Rhinoplasty)

This surgery is of special interest to Dr. von Maur. He performs this surgery using an open or closed technique and will frequently combine cartilage modification with cartilage grafting and internal nasal reconstruction for breathing improvement. Dr. von Maur believes that facial balance is an intergral and extremely important element in creating facial beauty. The nose is the aesthetic (albeit subconscious) center of the face and small alterations or refinements in the nose will have a remarkable effect on improving the over-all facial appearance.

Blepharoplasy (Eyelid Beautification)

Completes the over-all formula for facial balance and harmony.

Other – Ancillary Procedures

Perioral Rejuvenation – Lip enhancement is very popular today. Dr. von Maur uses the latest soft tissue fillers including Restylane, Hylaform, collagen, and Fat Transfers. (These procedures are done in-office with minimal discomfort using anesthesia). Dermabrasion – very effective method of smoothen lip lines which may not resond avorably to less invasive procedures.

Medical Skin Rejuvenation

Dr. von Maur employs two full-time, fully trained medical aestheticians to provide you with the most up to date and advanced medical skin care treatments and products. Dr. von Maur feels that skin care is equally as important as surgery, and must work in harmony with invasive procedures. To that end, he has dedicated his practice to the latest and most advanced skin improvement rejuvenation modalities and offers you a choice of different “light” therapies ranging from the non-ablative PhotoFacial (Intense Pulse Light), N’Lite, HGM, and CO2 Laser.

CO2 Laser and Erbium Laser – these two lasers work on the surface of your skin to create a variable depth superficial peel that is effective especially with deeper lines of the face. They may be used in conjunction with the other modalities when indicated.
Micro-Dermabrasion – this procedure is an adjunct to all other medical skin rejuvenation procedures. When it is combined with PhotoFacial, the rejuvenation process can be accelerated and more through.

Body Contouring Surgery

Many patients, despite diet and exercise, are unable to achieve the body or silhouette they dream of. While other patients who have lost weight find themselves dealing with “problem areas” where there is excess, redundant skin. Dr. von Maur specializes in body contouring from head to toe. He has a vast experience with abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) thigh-buttock lift, lower body lift, inner thigh lift, and arm lift ( brachioplasy). These are very rewarding procedures with patients who have struggled most of their adult life with these problems and have finally found a solution. By combining external ultrasound and power-assisted liposculpture and using three-dimensional analysis, significant improvement of your figure and shape is the result. External ultrasonic power-assisted lipo-sculpture which includes three-dimensional and circumferential lipo-sculpture; abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), full body lift (includes buttock, thighs, and abdomen), thigh lift, thigh-buttock lift, buttock enhancement with at transfer or implants, and brachioplsty (arm lift).

Breast Enhancement

Breast Augmentation – is one of the most popular plastic surgeries today performed in Southern California. Dr. von Maur utilizes saline or silicone, depending on the patients’s breast configuration. This can be determined at the time of initial evaluation. The scars from breast augmentation are generally peri-areolar, but someties trans-axillary, and sub-mannary. Dr. von Maur likes to use a pain pump catheter for breast augmentation patients because it can be left in place for up to three days.
Breast lift (Mastopexy) – is the best way to correct post-partum breasts where the skin is stretched and the breasts droop. There are varieties of mastopexy methods used that are state of the art and very effective. The breast lift can be done with or without a breast implant depending on the patient’s desires.
Breast Reduction – helps to improve body proportion, reduce neck, back and shoulder pain, improve well-being, and allows a person to engage in activities that would normally be a challenge. This operation is done under general anesthesia and is sometimes partially covered by insurance.
