Body Contouring
Genetics determine your shape. While optimal nutrition and exercises are essential for good health, neither can dramatically alter our "genetically determined" shape. Only through surgical body contouring can dramatic alterations in our basic shape be achieved. A common example of this is the contour of the waist. In some women, the waist is straight and without curve. This gives the body a very boxy or "square" appearance. The contour of the waist significantly influences the appearance of the rest of the body contour from a "square" shape to a far more exciting "hour-glass" shape along with a curvier "heart-shaped" bottom.

Breast Enhancement
Breast enhancement is the single most empowering cosmetic procedure. Throughout time, the breast has symbolized femininity. Breast enhancement delivers a profound positive impact on confidence, body balance, womanliness, and self esteem. There is no surprise that breast enhancement procedures are vastly popular and successful.

Abdominoplasty
You are the ultimate woman, a mother. You should look and feel that way too. Pregnancy stretches out the abdominal wall and skin. This results in a protuberant abdomen often with loose and stretched skin. While exercise is important for our well being, no amount of abdominal exercises will flatten the abdominal wall or tighten the redundant skin. Abdominoplasty, or "tummy-tuck," is a powerful procedure that restores the beauty of the abdomen and torso. Combined with liposculpture, bodies can actually improve better than their pre-pregnancy state.

Facial Rejuvenation and Enhancement
The appearance of our face communicates a tremendous amount of information to others. As our face and eyes age, they tend to project a sense of being tired, stressed, or sad. Today, there exists a wide spectrum of options that addresses the problems of the face and eyes, ranging from both non-surgical to surgical. Many of these options give impressive results with little or no down time, such as, Botox, injectable fillers, upper eyelid rejuvenation, and mini-facelifts. Presently, the emphasis is on techniques that provide natural, unoperated appearances. Similar to the face and eyes, procedures for the nose and ears considerably influence our appearance. For instance, sculpturing of the nose can create afar more pleasant and approachable look; while at the same time, revealing the beauty of the eyes which was previously masked by the dominance of a harsher appearing nose.

Other Procedures
Dr. Giuffrida performs numerous other cosmetic procedures, including buttock enhancement, fat grafting, lip-augmentation, Botox, Radiesse, and Juvaderm.
