Facelift
One of the most effective ways to make a dramatic improvement in your appearance is with the facelift procedure. At our Wichita, Kansas area practice, we have a reputation for youthful, natural-looking facelift results. A properly performed facelift can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and tighten sagging skin. The procedure, commonly performed on individuals over the age of 40, may be combined with liposuction to remove excess fat from the neck and face for a slimmer and more proportionate appearance. A facelift is typically performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure at our Wichita, Kansas practice, and temporary side effects may include discomfort, swelling, bruising, and numbness. Most patients are able to return to work and other light activities in one to two weeks.
Blepharoplasty
Patients as young as 30 may be concerned with signs of aging in the eye area, including sagging eyelid skin, lower eyelid puffiness, and wrinkles. An eyelid lift, also known as blepharoplasty, can effectively create a more open and youthful eye area by removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues with only minimally visible incisions and scarring. For even greater results, blepharoplasty may be combined with a facelift procedure at our Wichita, Kansas plastic surgery practice. Typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia, an eyelid lift may cause temporary side effects, including tearing, swelling, blurred vision, bruising, dry eye sensation, and sensitivity to light. In about one week, most patients are able to return to work and other non-strenuous activities.
Necklift

A necklift procedure helps define the face by targeting excess, sagging skin around the neck. A necklift can be used to create a leaner, more youthful appearance and may be combined with the facelift procedure at our Wichita, Kansas plastic surgery center for enhanced results. Typically performed as an outpatient procedure, a necklift is an ideal treatment because the tiny incisions can be placed behind the ears to ensure a completely natural look. Temporary side effects associated with the procedure may include swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Most patients are able to return to work and normal activities in one to two weeks.
Browlift
A browlift, also called a forehead lift, is a procedure in which the eyebrows are raised to a higher position to eliminate prominent forehead wrinkles for a naturally relaxed and more youthful appearance. The browlift, most often performed on individuals over the age of 40 as an outpatient procedure, is associated with temporary side effects like numbness, discomfort, bruising, and swelling. Typically, patients can expect to return to work and light activities in as little as one week
Lip Augmentation
Lip augmentation or enhancement can be achieved in a number of ways. Although soft tissue fillers are ideal for improving the size and shape of the lips in as little as one convenient office visit, follow-up treatments are required every three to six months to maintain results. Patients interested in more lasting enhancement options may be candidates for synthetic lip implants, which provide a natural-looking, defined contour and youthful, attractive appearance. Performed as an outpatient procedure, lip implant placement may cause temporary side effects like swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Most patients can return to normal activities in as little as three to five days.
Lip Reduction
Lip reduction can be performed to improve facial proportions and enhance self-confidence. Excess lip tissue is removed through tiny incisions that are hidden in the natural lip contour, reducing fullness in overly large, puffy, or uneven lips for a more balanced appearance that beautifully compliments other facial features. Lip reduction can be performed under local or general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure, and patients may experience temporary side effects including swelling and discomfort. Most patients are able to resume normal activities in less than one week.
Otoplasty
Otoplasty, or ear pinning, can improve facial balance by reducing the appearance of prominent ears. Otoplasty may be performed on children as young as four years old, who may become self-conscious due to ridicule from peers, or on older individuals who are uncomfortable with the size or shape of their ears. At our Wichita, Kansas plastic surgery center, otoplasty is typically performed as an outpatient procedure. Temporary side effects may include swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Most individuals return to normal activities in as little as five to seven days.
Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping, can make a dramatic change in one’s overall appearance and significantly improve one’s self-confidence. Adjustments to size, shape, or alignment can enhance facial balance and proportions for a nose that naturally complements the individual’s surrounding features. Typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, rhinoplasty may cause temporary side effects like discomfort, bruising, and swelling. Most patients are able to return to work and light activities in as little as one week.
In addition to experienced facial plastic surgery options, Dr. Matt Conrad also provides abdominoplasty, liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction to define one’s overall shape and improve appearance.
