As seen on The Doctors and Dr. Oz, the Pellevé Wrinkle Reduction System safely and effectively delivers skin tightening and firming results via a series of non-invasive, radiofrequency based treatments.
Pellevé can be used to firm the skin around the eyes (crows feet, under eye wrinkles and lax skin), cheeks, jowls, lines on the forehead, nasolabial folds, and wrinkles around the mouth, and the best results are achieved in mildly to moderately wrinkled and lax skin. Patients see improved skin quality, firmness, and a tighter appearance.

The Pellevé technology works by heating layers of the skin just enough to stimulate collagen changes without damaging the top layer or epidermis. Patients experience a deep warming sensation which feels like a warm facial massage which is virtually painless. The results are immediate in most cases and can last up to six months or longer, and a series of 3 treatments are recommended. Pellevé treatments in our New York City office take approximately 30-60 minutes, based on the size of the area being treated. Because Pellevé does not require anesthesia or downtime, it fits easily into your busy schedule.

The Eclipse MicroPen™ is a new innovation in aesthetic medicine now offered in our Manhattan surgical office for the treatment of fine lines, acne scars, and improvement of the skin’s overall appearance.
During this procedure, tiny needles are used to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin in order to produce collagen and elastin. The skin’s repair process results in a thicker dermis with the appearance of softer wrinkles. Eclipse MicroPen™ also creates superficial micro-channels which allow topical gels, creams, and serums to be absorbed more effectively into the skin.

Dr. Philip Miller is very proud to offer the newly FDA approved Kybella, a non-surgical injectable treatment to eliminate double chin fat. The procedure is available in his office in New York City. Kybella, also known as deoxycholic acid, is available in a non-invasive injectable procedure for adults who have moderate-to-severe fat deposits below the chin area. This type of fat is known as submental fat. Dr. Miller is now able to treat his New York City patients with Kybella and eliminate double chins without surgery.
What is Kybella?
Kybella is a version of deoxycholic acid, promises to melt away chin fat. It uses a naturally-occurring molecule in the human body to aid in the breakdown of normal dietary fats. Until now, the only way to eliminate double chin fat, also known as submental fullness was with the surgical procedure liposuction. However, liposuction is considered an invasive surgical procedure and usually requires that the patient remains in the hospital to heal. Kybella, offered in injectable form, offers a safe, non-invasive alternative.

Manufactured by Kythera Biopharmaceuticals, Kybella is injected into the patient’s chin with a very precise needle. The injected Kybella immediately begins to destroy the membranes of fat cells. Any remaining part of the fat cell is reabsorbed into the patient’s body. Similar to Botox, Kybella treatments involve 10-20 injections at each visit. The total visit only lasts approximately 15 minutes in Dr. Miller’s New York City office.
Before and After of Kybella treatment to reduce fat cells under the chin
*Patient results may vary.
The secret behind Kybella is its ability to burst the fat cells and destroy them without affecting the surrounding cells. Fat is not melted but the membranes of the fat cells are broken allowing the contents to reabsorb into the patient’s body. The injection of Kybella actually disrupts the fat cell membranes.
Why Have Double Chin Fat Removal with Kybella
Double chin fat is one of the most difficult types of fat to lose. Because the fat deposits lie comfortably in sags of loose skin, even if the fat is lost, the skin stays behind. For centuries, men and women have struggled with ways to lessen the inevitable sag of chin fat due to time, gravity and being overweight.
The most common way to remove double chin fat before Kybella had been with liposuction – a surgical procedure. The patient would be admitted, have the surgery and remain in the hospital for several days for observation. The result would be scars, bruising and extreme tenderness. However, now with Kybella, all of that can be avoided.
Kybella is performed in an outpatient procedure in the physician’s office. The patient receives minimal prep work before the procedure. The physician administers approximately 10-20 injections of Kybella directly into the double chin fat area. Kybella immediately begins to work, breaking down the fat cell walls to allow the fat to redistribute into the patient’s body for easy absorption. The patient goes home the same day with minimal tenderness and mild to no scarring of any kind.

Double Chin Fat Removal with Kybella Treatment
Having double chin fat removed with the Kybella treatment is a low-risk effective procedure that will easily and quickly replace liposuction as the procedure of choice for double chin fat removal. People looking to get rid of double chin fat won’t have to resort to dramatic procedures like liposuction to regain the beauty of their younger years.
For some patients, removing double chin fat is not just a matter of vanity; it can actually present a health risk if the skin and tissue are left lying on the neck area or rub/chaff the area on a regular basis. Many patients experience soreness and even develop rashes and open lesions from large amounts of fat in the chin area. With Kybella as an option, patients are able to visit the physician as an outpatient and receive 10-20 injections that will immediately begin to break down the fatty cells and eliminate the double chin fat altogether.
Are You a Candidate?
Because fat cells are destroyed, the result will be loose, sagging skin. The ideal candidate for the Kybella injection procedure would have very supple, elastic skin that could recover from such a procedure. Patients who have a lot of extra skin would not really be best suited by this procedure. There are other options for patients who might need a more extensive treatment plan. Kybella patients will lose the fat cells that are filling up the excess skin under the chin. Once the fat is dissolved, the ideal skin would be extremely elastic and resilient, allowing it to shrink appropriately after the procedure.
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Miller to find out if you are a candidate for this new FDA-approved double chin fat removal treatment in New York.
FAQ
Q. How long will the procedure last?
A. Normally, the procedure only lasts about 15 minutes. The physician will administer 10-20 injections into the chin area in strategic places to ensure even distribution of Kybella. The fat cells will immediately begin to break down for re-absorption into the body.
Q. What can I expect after the procedure?
A. Patients can expect minimal bruising, minor pain and some numbness in the actual areas that are injected. Some patients report minor swelling as well. If these symptoms become troublesome, discuss them with your doctor for possible short-term remedies.
Q. Are there risks?
A. As with all surgical procedures, rarely more serious side effects do occur. One particular risk is an injury to the marginal mandibular nerve located in the lower neck area. If the nerve is injured, the patient could experience permanent loss of control of facial expressions on that side of the face resulting in an uneven smile. This is why choosing a trained, skilled physician is critical. The FDA has clearly mandated that only trained licensed healthcare professionals knowledgeable in the procedure are allowed to administer the Kybella injections. Learn more about possible risks at fda.gov.
Q. How soon can I return to work?
A. One of the great aspects of Kybella is the minimal recovery time. Patients are usually able to resume all normal daily activity immediately following the treatment. There is an inflammatory reaction immediately following the injections. Healing usually takes two to three days under normal circumstances.

As people age, the skin begins to show the effects of sun damage, becomes looser and develops textural changes. Luckily, there are many treatments available that can improve the look and feel of your skin. CO2 resurfacing lasers are one of the newer types of lasers available to treat wrinkles and other skin problems. Here’s what you need to know about CO2 resurfacing laser treatment.
CO2 resurfacing is a type of laser treatment offered at Dr. Philip Miller’s New York office. Sometimes called”pixelated” lasers because the laser creates many microscopic (microdot) treatment areas, CO2 Resurfacing lasers have a longer wavelength than other lasers on the market. The longer wavelength means it can be used on darker skin types; conventional lasers are less effective on dark skin. Fractionating the laser beam splits it into thousands of tiny shafts of intense light. Each shaft penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin.
To heal, the body pushes old, damaged skin out of the shaft and replaces it with new skin. Because the shafts are very small and close together, the skin surface is smoother and has a better appearance than that achieved with other laser treatments.

Why Undergo CO2 Resurfacing?
Before and After of CO2 Laser Resurfacing to rejuvenate the skin
CO2 Resurfacing lasers are typically more effective in treating acne scars, blotchy skin, deeper wrinkles and scars from surgery or trauma. They also produce better results when the skin has severe textural changes including pigment abnormalities from sun damage. The laser affects the deeper layers of skin and helps to tighten or shrink collagen, which becomes loose as people age.
CO2 resurfacing lasers can be used in areas where the skin is delicate, such as on the eyelids and around the mouth. This type of laser is also used to remove precancerous growths called actinic keratoses. Although it is primarily used on the face, it can also be used – by an expert operator only – in areas like the chest, neck, arms, and legs. Patients who are careful about skin care and sun protection may find CO2 resurfacing laser treatments are effective for several years.
What is the CO2 Resurfacing Procedure Like?
Although the procedure itself takes about an hour, you should expect to arrive about 45 minutes before your treatment. Your skin must be thoroughly cleansed. Numbing cream or gel is applied to reduce discomfort; it takes about an hour for the full numbing effect. The numbing medication is then removed. Your eyes will be protected during the procedure. If you are having the eyelids treated, special protective contact lenses are inserted after numbing eye-drops are placed in the eyes.
The hand-held wand or device is moved slowly over the treatment area. Some physicians use a treatment called a Zimmer cooler, which blows a strong stream of cold air onto the treatment area to help reduce any discomfort. Anti-inflammatory medications may also be helpful. Most patients describe the actual treatment as causing pins and needles feeling. Most people are able to drive themselves to and from their treatments.
Are You A Candidate?
Before and After of CO2 Laser Resurfacing to rejuvenate the skin
The best candidates for CO2 resurfacing laser treatments are people in their late 40s to 70s who have moderate to severe acne scarring, wrinkles or sun damage. If you take medications that may increase sun sensitivity or anticoagulants (blood thinners) you may not be able to have the procedure.
CO2 resurfacing treatments are not recommended for women who are pregnant or for people who have a history of healing problems or excessive scarring. Patients who have taken the medication Accutane within the last year and those who have had chemotherapy should not have CO2 resurfacing treatments. CO2 resurfacing lasers are not effective in removing redness from dilated blood vessels or similar kinds of discolorations. Patients with darker skin types (Fitz 4 and up) are not suitable candidates for this procedure.
A: The procedure itself lasts about an hour and takes place at our New York City center, but additional aspects such as numbing and cleansing add to the time. Plan on a total time of about two and half hours. Some people need more than one treatment – it really depends on how much time you need to have for recovery.
Q: What can I expect after the procedure?
A: Immediately after the procedure, you can expect to look and feel as though you have a sunburn. Ice packs can help relieve any discomfort. The skin will peel for up to a week after the treatment. Occasionally patients develop minor bruising, which can take about two weeks to resolve. The full results of the procedure won’t become visible for three to six months. You will notice some immediate effects, such as less blotchiness. The skin will feel smoother; it will tend to be pinker than usual for about four to six weeks.
Q: Are there risks?
A: No medical procedure is totally risk-free. Mild pain is normal for the first day or two and redness lasts up to two weeks after the procedure. Rarely, it may last longer, especially in those people who blush easily or have dilated blood vessels on the surface of the skin. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun for about four to six weeks after the procedure. Some people develop skin crusting as well as peeling. Occasionally people with darker skin may develop pigmentation changes (lighter or darker skin). These changes usually fade after three to six months, although on rare occasions that change is long lasting. Temporary swelling occurs in some patients, and very rarely, the treatment will cause scarring or an infection will occur.
Q: How soon can I return to work?
A: You should definitely plan to take the rest of the day off, as you will need to ice the treated areas. CO2 Resurfacing laser treatments can be customized – deeper treatments mean longer downtime for healing. Two shallow treatments may be equally effective and the healing time for each treatment is shorter. It takes three to 14 days for the skin to heal. For lighter treatments, expect three to five days of downtime, and for deep treatments, plan on seven to 10 days. If you are having the treatment performed for a special occasion like a wedding, allow at least two to four weeks of recovery time (longer for sites like the arms and legs).

CoolSculpting by Zeltiq Aesthetics, Inc. is a revolutionary, non-surgical cosmetic procedure for removing excess fat from localized areas of the body such as the abdomen, lower back, and waist. No anesthesia, needles, chemicals, incisions, scalpels, stitches, scars or recovery time are involved.
This non-invasive treatment can reduce fat by using a new technology to crystallize and dissolve fat cells beneath the skin’s surface. Selective subcutaneous fat cells, specifically those that diet and exercise cannot eliminate effectively, are reabsorbed safely and gently while healthy cells remain unharmed.

*Individual patient results can vary

Before and after of CoolSculpting to further define the abdomen region
Invented by Harvard medical scientists and FDA approved in 2010, this patented procedure utilizes the science of cryolipolysis wherein targeted fat cells are naturally eliminated through freezing temperatures. When fat units are exposed to the unique CoolSculpting device, they contract and undergo a process called apoptosis that gradually dissolves fat. Because there is never true skin penetration, healthy skin, tissues, muscles, and nerves are unaffected.
How CoolSculpting Works
Upon consultation, patients can address their specific needs, medical background, and realistic expectations. The patient and surgeon will develop a customized treatment plan in order to achieve desired results. The procedure typically lasts one hour. Patients are free to talk on their cell phone, listen to music, read a magazine, or even work on their laptop during a CoolSculpting session.
The targeted body area is outlined with a gel and the device is then applied. This device utilizes cooling panels which deliver the freezing temperature to initiate the fat cell reduction process. Safety sensors within the device monitor proper cooling feedback, so that healthy tissue and cells remain unaffected.
After the device is removed, the treated tissue may appear pink or red in color for anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. Once the skin reaches normal body temperature, some minimal tenderness may be felt over the next 24 hours. Some patients have experienced mild bruising due to the suction quality, but this will resolve within two weeks.
Dr. Miller also offers Dual CoolSculpting at his New York surgery center, which treats two areas at once, allowing for faster treatment time, optimal patient comfort, and convenience. He is the only surgeon in the heart of midtown Manhattan to offer this procedure.
No Downtime with CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is truly a no downtime procedure. You can schedule an appointment session during your lunch hour and go right back to work or continue engaging in your normal daily activities. Patients can appreciate noticeable and natural looking results after only one treatment.
However, full results are seen in approximately three months after the body has naturally processed all excess fat cells. You and your doctor may decide that additional treatments are necessary to continue or promote further fat cell reduction. Studies have shown up to a 25% fat reduction in treated areas. You can maintain long-term results by eating healthy and exercising regularly. Common side effects are numbness, “pins and needles” like tingling, and minor bruising to the affected body area, but all resolve within a few weeks’ time.

Additionally, his staff are so personable, considerate, and available! I can’t speak highly enough of his practice.
I went to Dr. Miller almost 10 months ago for my rhinoplasty and couldn’t be happier with not only the result, but the compassion, support and manners of Dr. Miller and his entire team. This procedure was something I wanted for 10 years so to say I was excited and nervous is an understatement but from my first consult with him, I knew Dr. Miller was the one!
What a seamless experience. The care and time each person in Dr. Miller’s office took with me, including Dr. Miller himself was unmatched. They truly made me completely comfortable and crushed any doubt I had in my mind about the procedure.

I underwent a “tip-plasty” with Dr. Miller and could not be happier with the results. I didn’t want to look vastly different, just a bit more refinement to the excess cartilage on the tip of my nose. My results are so natural and exactly what I was looking for. By the time all the sutures dissolved (which took awhile) the incision line was already completely invisible. 10/10.
November 2023 ★★★★★

I did bariatric surgery and got almost to my goal weight. I was stuck between 20-25lbs away from it after losing 103lbs. I have begun working with Araksya at the clinic as part of their weight loss program. I have tried with other clinics and with her support and the clinic program my weight has finally started decreasing again. We discussed sustainable weight loss, nutrition and how to administer the medications as part of the clinic’s program. I feel amazing and my clothing is fitting much better. I mentally felt stuck as well before this. Araksya has been so accommodating to my needs and has made this such a collaborative process. Even within the first month I have gotten a quarter of the way to my goal. Thank you Araksya and Dr Philip for offering this program.
I love Dr Miller’s technique and vision to keep me as natural looking as possible. I’ve been to the NY and New Orleans offices. All have been fabulous.

My clock went back 10 years. I’m so glad I went. Dr Miller is a great person, funny and good surgeon. Thanks
At the consultation, Dr. Miller made me feel that he could handle my requests for how I would like to look. My nose now looks exactly the way I hoped. His staff and surgery crew were amazing. They were professional, good-natured, and reassuring.

Neuromodulators
Neuromodulators are wrinkle-relaxing injections of botulinum toxin that smooth away lines and wrinkles to create a refreshed, more youthful look.
Botox
Botox works to relax the facial muscles and diminish wrinkles around the eyes (crow’s feet) and smooth out creases between the eyebrows or from across the forehead. It can also be used around the lips, on either side of the nose, or on neck bands. Following a treatment, the skin will appear smoother and naturally more youthful.
Jeuveau helps to erase dynamic wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes by relaxing the muscles that cause them. As the muscles relax, so does the skin, resulting in a smooth facial appearance that conveys confidence and energy.
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected beneath the skin to fill in wrinkles, soften creases, restore lost volume, or enhance facial contours.
Juvéderm
The Juvéderm collection of injectable fillers are made from Hyaluronic Acid (HA) –a natural substance within the skin that delivers nutrients and helps the skin retain its moisture, softness, and volume. When injected, Juvéderm will replace lost volume in specific areas of the skin, helping patients achieve smoother skin and new facial contours.
Neuromodulators and dermal fillers can work in tandem to restore a more youthful look. By utilizing various injectables, Dr. Miller can reduce deep wrinkles, restore facial volume, and help rejuvenate and lift the face without the need for surgery.

CO2 Laser Resurfacing
Also referred to as “pixelated” laser, CO2 laser emits a beam that splits into thousands of tiny shafts of intense light that penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin. As the skin heals, the body pushes old, damaged skin out and replaces it with new, healthy skin, resulting in a skin surface that is smoother. Although primarily used on the face to treat age spots, uneven skin tone, deep lines and wrinkles, scarring, hyperpigmentation, and melasma, CO2 laser resurfacing can also be used on the neck, chest, arms, and legs.
Excel V+ is the latest generation of high-powered, dual-wavelength lasers that feature a micro-pulsed energy delivery system that has incredible precision and power, effectively breaking apart the pigment in the deepest lesions without harming surrounding healthy skin. Excel V+ can be used for hair removal as well as to treat skin conditions such as rosacea, sunspots, spider veins, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, bruises, and acne scars.
Various lasers offered at Gotham Plastic Surgery provide patients with an advanced, minimally-invasive approach to rejuvenating the face and neck, or sculpting the body by reducing cellulite. Examples of laser treatments include Face-Tite, Fractora, Neck-Tite, and Tite-FX which have become ideal alternatives to a facelift, neck lift, or liposuction procedure.
Fractora uses fractional radiofrequency technology to resurface the skin, correcting common skin conditions such as fine lines and deep wrinkles, brown spots, redness, poor skin texture, and visible blood vessels. Fractora Firm on the other hand, is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that utilizes thermal energy to deeply heat beneath the skin, boosting collagen production and resulting in tighter skin.
The ultimate in exfoliation, microdermabrasion uses a multilayered skin-resurfacing device to gently unclog the pores and eliminate dead skin cells from the epidermis, restoring smooth and healthy-looking skin. It also serves as the perfect pre-treatment procedure for further facial treatments.
This micro-needling procedure reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving patients with younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. It effectively treats hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, scars, and stretchmarks. And because the procedure helps create superficial micro-channels on the skin, topical serums and creams are better absorbed by the skin.
The latest innovation in anti-aging treatments, Pellevé effectively tightens and firms the skin via a series of non-invasive radiofrequency-based treatments. It can be used to firm the skin around the eyes, cheeks, jowls, forehead, and around the mouth. Patients see improved skin quality, firmness, and a tighter appearance.
Skin needling offers an alternative to chemical peels and lasers for skin rejuvenation. Instead of removing the top layers of the skin, the microscopic pin pricks created on the skin trigger the body’s natural wound healing process, as well as the production of new collagen. As new collagen is continually produced, lines and wrinkles are filled, and scars (e.g., acne and chicken pox) begin to fade.
Kybella is an injectable treatment that uses deoxycholic acid –a naturally occurring molecule in the human body that aids in the breakdown of dietary fats. It is an effective treatment for eliminating double chins without surgery.
Offering a non-surgical alternative to fat reduction, CoolSculpting is a revolutionary procedure that targets fat cells by utilizing freezing temperatures. Once the fat cells have been destroyed, they are gradually and naturally flushed from the body. The treatments can remove stubborn fat from the abdomen, waist, and lower back.

It’s a well-documented fact–from Greek mythology gods, to the most popular superheroes you looked up to, and the A-list celebrities you admire–one of the common physical traits they all share is having a strong jawline. Sharp features and a chiseled jawline create a classic look that is considered one of the hallmarks of masculinity. In fact, the results of a study suggest that men undergoing facial cosmetic surgery may experience changes in perceived attractiveness, masculinity, and a variety of personality traits. Strengthening your jawline, therefore, can make you appear healthier, fitter, younger, and more confident, adding to your overall attractiveness.
G.I. Jaw
Some men are not born with a bone structure that exudes the masculinity and the kind of confidence they want to present to the world. Fortunately, G.I. Jaw can help you achieve a square, chiseled, and defined jaw that conveys strength and success. Dr. Miller’s innovative procedure can include anyone (or a combination) of fat-reduction and skin-smoothing procedures.
Chin Liposuction
For men who have submental fat (fat underneath the chin, otherwise known as a double chin), but the skin is resilient enough to snap back into place immediately after it is pinched, chin liposuction may be enough to create a stronger, more attractive jawline and profile.
Neck Lift
The neck is often the first place where your age becomes apparent because neck skin is thin and poorly attached to the underlying muscle, and one of the most frustrating signs of aging is a drooping, sagging neck. A neck lift can help restore a smoother, firmer, and more refined appearance of the neck.
Face-Tite™
For those seeking a non-surgical approach to addressing loose skin or excess fat in the face, Face-Tite™ can be a great solution. This procedure is sometimes considered a facelift/neck lift alternative, but it lifts and tightens facial areas using Body-Tite™’s patented radiofrequency assisted liposuction (RFAL) technology.
Nose Augmentation for Men
Since masculine features are perceived to be key characteristics of male attractiveness, many men look to rhinoplasty to eliminate any nose concerns like a bulbous tip, bump on the bridge, or wide nostrils. Because each “nose job” is customized, the result can be an attractive and masculine nose that balances out the rest of your unique facial features.
Male Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed on the nose for either cosmetic or reconstructive purposes and is customized to a man’s facial features. Rhinoplasty can improve the cosmetic appearance of the nose by reshaping, reducing, augmenting the tissue, removing a hump, or adjusting the angle between the nose and the mouth.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is a safe and effective alternative to invasive surgical procedures to correct certain undesirable nose characteristics. It allows you to make subtle changes to the shape of your nose through the use of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers.
Non-Surgical Anti-Aging Treatments for Men
A healthy face exudes fitness, energy, and success, and more men are deciding that they would like to maintain a youthful appearance, regardless of their age. In a competitive work environment, appearing as energetic as you feel can help management view you as a better candidate than your elders. Good skincare along with suitable cosmetic procedures can help rejuvenate your skin, shave years from your appearance, and turn back the clock on aging.
Botox
Botox is a safe, quick, and effective non-surgical solution to facial aging. It is an FDA-approved neuromodulator treatment that works by blocking nerve impulses to the facial muscles responsible for certain facial lines called dynamic wrinkles. Results are customizable because Dr. Miller understands how to tailor each treatment to the unique needs of your masculine features.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers offer men a quick, “lunchtime” procedure that provides immediate results with minimal downtime. Men who have under-eye troughs, lines, creases around their eyes and mouth, and hollow areas around their face can see exceptional improvements with a dermal filler procedure. They can also be used to define the jawline.
Laser Treatments
Laser treatments generally provide faster results than topical skincare products, and they may not only help maintain the health of the skin but also target specific issues such as lines and wrinkles, freckles, sun damage, veins, age spots, skin laxity, unwanted hair, rosacea, acne scars, and pigmentation.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is another method for resurfacing the skin, but it is much more gentle than the previous ones. It only removes a small amount of skin, making it appropriate for the face, chest, neck, and other sensitive areas. Microdermabrasion can improve mild-to-moderate sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and other skin problems.
Surgical Anti-Aging Treatments for Men
If you are ready for longer-term anti-aging results, the below surgical procedures Dr. Miller offers might be right for you:
Brow Lift
Aging, as well as genetics and environmental factors, can cause the skin to sag and lose elasticity, causing forehead wrinkles and drooping eyebrows. A brow lift can ensure that you look youthful and vibrant and that your physical appearance matches your energetic inner self.
Micro Lift
Men who want to erase the early signs of aging and experience permanent results, but who are not ready for an invasive full-facelift, may find their desired results through a mini or Micro Lift. A Micro Lift improves displaced fat and sagging skin on the lower face and minimizes the appearance of jowls.
Facelift
A facelift is a more comprehensive anti-aging procedure that produces more dramatic results as it resolves jowls and sagging skin of both the mid and lower face. It reduces droopy skin and smooths out wrinkles for long-term rejuvenation of a man’s facial appearance. Dr. Miller is uniquely qualified to perform this procedure on men because a large number of his patients are men, so he understands the goals men have for a facelift are different from women’s goals. He caters the procedure to your unique facial structure.
Fat Grafting
Facial fat grafting or fat transfer is an excellent facial rejuvenation procedure that men can undergo to give them a fresh, youthful, natural look. Fat is extracted from an area of the body (such as the abdomen), and healthy fat cells are precisely injected to fill in gaunt or hollowed areas to restore lost volume in the face. It enhances areas such as the forehead, temples, under eyes, lips, cheekbones, jawline, and chin. And since body fat is natural, it is non-allergenic and can last for a long time.
Body Treatments for Men
When diet and exercise aren’t enough to eliminate stubborn fat, men can turn to body contouring procedures to help them achieve the body of their dreams. Problem areas such as the chest, arms, and stomach can finally be resolved to reveal an overall sleek and slender physique.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is a non-invasive alternative to liposuction that allows men to sculpt and contour their bodies despite their busy schedules. In less than an hour, CoolSculpting can target the unwanted fat cells underneath the skin to reveal a more sculpted, natural-looking physique. It can target belly fat, flanks, double chin, and chest fat.
Body Banking
While liposuction effectively reduces fat to slim out certain body areas, there is only so far that fat reduction can go when it comes to achieving that balanced, proportional body that men, especially those who frequent the gym, dream of having. Compared to traditional liposuction, body banking can add more dimension to your body with only minimal downtime, enhancing the natural muscles you’ve diligently worked hard to build in the gym.
Eye Rejuvenation for Men
Sun damage, thinning skin, and the natural aging process can take a toll on the delicate eye area, resulting in eye bags, wrinkles, or generally tired-looking eyes. Eye rejuvenation can brighten your eye area and refresh your upper face, but what men need are eyelid surgeries that are tailored to them. Factors such as a man’s heavier muscles and thicker skin, along with their masculine features, are considered by Dr. Miller so he can provide results that are natural-looking.
Upper Blepharoplasty
Excess skin, fat, and loose muscles can weigh down the upper eyelids, causing upper-eyelid hooding. An upper blepharoplasty can remove the excess skin and fat and redistribute the fat to allow the eyelids to retain a more natural look. Men undergo this procedure to have their skin tightened, giving their eyes a more wide-awake, energetic, and attentive appearance.
Lower Blepharoplasty
Eye bags and deep creases under the eyes can give you a tired, aged look. The main objectives of a lower blepharoplasty are to get rid of loose, excess skin, remove fat pockets, resolve under-eye troughs, and to tighten up the lower eye area.
