Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a major part of Dr. Calvert’s practice. This procedure requires significant training and experience coupled with a keen aesthetic eye.  Balance, structural support, and long lasting beauty are the keys to getting proper results. Dr. Calvert has published numerous peer reviewed articles about rhinoplasty and frequently presents his techniques and results at national and international meetings. He has taken time to cultivate his rhinoplasty expertise and has made this operation a major focus of his practice.

Revision Rhinoplasty
For rhinoplasty, Dr. Calvert uses his skill as an artist and a surgeon to shape the nose to fit the individual’s face. Recognizing that no two faces are exactly alike, Dr. Calvert takes the entire facial presentation into account when evaluating rhinoplasty patients and establishing a treatment plan with each patient. In addition to his work with revision rhinoplasty, Dr. Calvert also specializes in primary rhinoplasty.

Facelift and Brow Lift
Dr. Calvert works compassionately with each patient to customize a plan for their facial rejuvenation. He believes that each patient has distinct goals, unique anatomy, and varied life situations that must be incorporated into an individual, custom plan.

Lip Augmentation
The procedure is done on an outpatient basis. Sedation with local anesthesia is used for safety and comfort. The procedure is performed by excising a thin strip of skin, usually from an old scar, and passing it through the upper lip and sometimes the lower lip in much the same way a lip implant is placed. Then, fat is harvested from the hips, abdomen, or knees and injected into the lips.

Breast Augmentation
One of the most important decisions more and more women are making everyday is to have breast augmentation, a procedure to enhance the size of your breasts by using breast implants. Advances in breast implant technology and surgical techniques are making breast augmentation a popular option among women of all ages that desire a change in the way they look. The decision to undergo breast augmentation may result in a more flattering, better proportioned figure, more clothing options, and may enhance your confidence and self-esteem.

Implant Exchange
This occurs if the scar or capsule around the implant begins to tighten. This squeezing of the soft implant can cause the breast to feel hard. Capsular contracture sometimes requires either removal or "scoring" of the scar tissue, or perhaps removal or replacement of the implant. Since breast augmentation is one of the most popular operations performed, many women may experience this complication. Dr. Calvert customizes your operation for you based on your specific needs and desires.

Tummy Tuck
A full tummy tuck requires a horizontally-oriented incision in the area between the pubic hairline and navel. The shape and length of the incision will be determined by the degree of correction necessary. Your tummy tuck will result in a flatter, firmer abdominal contour that is more proportionate with your body type and weight.  The final results may be initially obscured by swelling and your inability to stand fully upright until internal healing is complete.  Within a week or two, you should be standing tall and confident about your new slimmer profile.

Post-Bariatric Body Lift
The Total Body Lift is a procedure where allof the major body contouring operations are performed in a singlestage. This operation requires a great deal of planning and preparationas the time for recovery is somewhat extended.  This operation is a waythat busy people can have their bodies converted from thepost-bartiatric or post-weight loss state into a smaller, skin reducedstate in one operation.  It is not for everyone, but for the rightpatients, it is the right operation.  It typically requires a hospitalstay of three to five days and about 6 weeks prior to returning towork.

Just for Men

FACE LIFT - A face lift, browlift, midfacelift, andnecklift for men can greatly enhance the aesthetic attractiveness of apatient’s face, visually subtracting years from a patient’sappearance.  Men are becoming more aware of the benefits of a moreyouthful and attractive appearance in the business and social world. Men often seek a face lift for men because they are concerned aboutdroopiness in their face and neck area, and heaviness in the jowl area.A good candidate for a face lift for men is any male in good physicaland psychological health who wishes to enhance their physicalappearance through cosmetic surgery. A typical patient who seeks a facelift for men is between the ages of thirty and seventy. Men are goodcandidates for a face lift because their skin is often thicker and lesswrinkly than women’s skin.

RHINOPLASTY (Nose Reshaping) – One of the most popular cosmetic proceduresfor men is rhinoplasty, or nose contouring. Bringing the nose intobalance with the rest of the face can dramatically improve one’sappearance. In some cases, rhinoplasty is combined with a chin implantand/or chin liposuction to further balance the face while improving thejawline. The nose can be considered the dominant feature of one’s faceand there are many individuals looking to make changes to their nose toaffect their overall look. Even the slightest change to the nose cangreatly affect one’s overall facial appearance, improving their lookand boosting self-confidence. The analysis of the patient’s nose andsurrounding facial features, their goals, and expert surgical techniqueare of the highest importance. That is why it is important to find aqualified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience performingrhinoplasty and achieving consistent results.

OTOPLASTY (Ear Pinning) – A procedure to bring greater balance to facial features through thecorrection of prominent ears.

NON-SURGICAL PROCEDURES
Many men turn to facial rejuvenation procedures to achieve a youngerfacial appearance. Procedures such as Botox injections and laser skinresurfacing can be used for men who have minor concerns; while a fullfacial rejuvenation may be desirable for men who need an overallimprovement.  The RoxSpa practitioners are also very experience withlaser hair removal for those unwanted areas throughout the body to suityour individualized needs.

BOTOX - BOTOX® is a commonly used, simple and safe,non-surgical injection treatment.  It blocks impulses from the nerve tothe tiny facial muscles that can cause wrinkles.  Botox specificallyrelaxes targeted muscles so they do not contract.  The overlying skinin the treated areas remains smooth and unwrinkled and the untreatedfacial muscles contract normally allowing normal facial expression tobe unaffected. 

FILLERS - Facial dermal fillers can also be used to:
• Plump up and fill out the jowls (folds from the corners of mouth to chin)
• Fill in facial depressions such as acne or surgical scars
• Fill deep irregularities from soft tissue loss and fat loss
• Augment jawline to create it more sculpted or angular
