Our honest take on upper lid blepharoplasty ๐Ÿฅผ

We hear it often - patients are told they *need* sedation. In reality, upper lid surgery is a precise skin procedure that typically takes about 20-30 minutes and can be comfortably performed under local anesthesia. No sedation, no unnecessary recovery.

The payoff is significant: brighter, more open eyes and a refreshed appearance that still looks like you. Downtime is relatively quick, results are impactful, and itโ€™s one of those procedures that makes a significant difference for the patient.

Contact our office to talk though if itโ€™s the right fit for you.

Too young for a facelift?? ๐Ÿง

We get this question more often than you think!

While facelifts arenโ€™t about chasing age, timing does matter. Patients who address early laxity often maintain more natural-looking results as they get older because there is less correction needed to achieve a great outcome.

Modern facelifts are strategic, customized and designed to support how the face ages long-term.

So no, .pa does not need a facelift (โ€ฆyet ๐Ÿ˜‚) but we do recommend starting sooner rather than later for the best results!

If youโ€™re wondering what makes sense for you- having a facelift now or later- please contact our office to schedule a consultation.

Facelift surgery continues to evolve- and so does the way we perform it.

At our practice, many facelifts are done comfortably under local anesthesia in-office, allowing patients to remain relaxed throughout the procedure with significantly less downtime than traditional approaches. This technique focuses on restoring natural structure and contour, creating results that feel refreshed and balanced.

It is one of our most requested procedures for its long-lasting, transformative results and thoughtful approach to recovery.

If youโ€™re exploring options for facial rejuvenation and want to understand whether this option is right for you, please schedule a consultation at one of our offices.

Just 2 weeks post-LipoAI arm contouring, and the transformation speaks for itself. Incredible results for fat removal and skin tightening which will only continue to improve.

LipoAI is an advanced laser-assisted liposuction technology that gently liquefies fat before removal - allowing for smoother extraction, less bruising and swelling and faster recovery compared to traditional methods.

By using laser energy first, weโ€™re able to tighten the skin and minimize trauma, making this a powerful solution for patients who want to refine stubborn areas like the arms with little to no downtime.

All performed under local anesthesia, with most patients returning to regular activities the next day.

To learn if youโ€™re a candidate for LipoAI, please contact a member of our team.

LipoAI uses advanced laser technology to gently liquefy fat before removal- allowing for smoother extraction, less trauma to surrounding tissue, and significantly reduced bruising and swelling. Patients experience minimal downtime, often returning to work the next day.

Performed comfortably under local anesthesia, this procedure is ideal for those on GLP-1 medications or anyone struggling with stubborn areas of fat that donโ€™t respond to diet and exercise.

At Rothaus Plastic Surgery, we combine state-of-the-art technology with an artistic approach to deliver natural, impactful results with little to no recovery.

Please send us a message or contact a member of our team to schedule a consultation for LipoAI.

Subtle changes can make all the difference.

This patientโ€™s neck lift was performed comfortably under local anesthesia, with minimal downtime - and results that are both useful and completely natural. Friends and family wonโ€™t suspect a thing, theyโ€™ll simply notice you look refreshed.

The arrows indicate an improvement in jawline contour, chin projection and excess neck skin / wrinkles.

We take a conservative, tailored approach to every surgery - enhancing your features, while ensuring the results align seamlessly with your natural appearance and personal goals.

For many of our private patients, this procedure is an ideal choice: it restores definition and smoothness without the telltale signs of surgery. Our office, discreetly located on E. 72nd St., is designed for comfort, privacy, and exceptional care.

If youโ€™ve been considering a necklace, we invite you to schedule a comprehensive consultation to explore whether this approach is right for you!
