Although plastic surgery might be the fastest way to transform a person's look, not everyone is thrilled with the idea of going under the knife. That's why the medical technicians at Mitts Plastic Surgery offer nonsurgical alternatives to their more invasive procedures. Under the direction of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gordon Mitts, who is a member of the prestigious American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the team addresses common cosmetic concerns such as wrinkles and uneven skin tone.

• Facial Peels: Using glycolic or trichloric acid, these treatments aim to repair damage and infuse radiance into dull complexions. They can help minimize skin imperfections such as acne, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and fine lines.
• Lip Injections: A medical technician injects fat or hyaluronic acid into lips to create a fuller, more alluring appearance.
• Botox: Crow's feet, laugh lines, and other wrinkles on the face smooth out for months at a time after rounds of Botox, which temporary paralyze muscles that cause lines to form.
• Plastic Surgery: For a more dramatic change in their appearance, clients and consult with Dr. Mitts about facelifts, liposuction, and other invasive treatments for the face and body.
