- Board certification, as the site states it: "Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery." Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
- Former President, Aesthetic Surgery Education and Research Foundation (ASERF); Vice Chair, the Aesthetic Society's Breast Implant Illness Task Force.
- President, Austin Society of Plastic Surgeons, 2013.
- Clinical focus listed on the about page: explant surgery, capsulectomy, fat transfer and his SHARP Method recovery program.
Facelift and neck lift work
- No Cut Facelift. A branded combination of Ellacor micro-coring to remove tiny cores of lax skin, FaceTite radiofrequency treatment beneath the skin of the lower face and neck, and MyEllevate, a light-guided suture system described as the neck-lift component. Facial fat transfer is added when volume loss is present. The page states it uses small access points and puncture sites, not the long incisions of a conventional facelift (No Cut Facelift, Ellacor).
- Traditional facelift and neck lift. The page states he "performs both surgical and minimally invasive facial rejuvenation" and that patients with advanced laxity may need a traditional facelift or neck lift. The link for those procedures goes to the general procedures page, which describes explant surgery, mommy makeover and the No Cut Facelift only. No page on the site describes a traditional facelift or neck lift technique (sitemap checked).
- Recovery. The page states recovery varies with the components used and gives no timeline in days or weeks.
- Galleries. The results page shows breast and explant cases only; no facial before-and-after photographs.
- Prices. None published for facial procedures.
Other facial procedures
The site also has an Ozempic face page offering facial fat transfer for volume loss after GLP-1 medications (Ozempic face). No eyelid or brow surgery pages were found.
