At Weber Facial Plastic Surgery, we’re dedicated to providing our patients with a cosmetic experience that exceeds expectations. We are committed to staying at the forefront of the field by harnessing the latest technology and employing advanced techniques. With that in mind, we’re proud to offer our unique approach to in-office surgery to serve our patients better. To give you a better idea of why we think this is a true game-changer, let’s explore some of the details of this option so you can have a better sense of what to expect moving forward.
Why In-Office Surgery?
When it comes to surgical procedures, we are deeply committed to ensuring that you receive the most exceptional experience possible. This unwavering dedication is why we take immense pride in offering in-office surgery as a pivotal component of our practice. This approach not only fosters a more direct and personalized connection with your surgical team, but it also presents myriad benefits that are specifically tailored to enhance and elevate your overall surgical experience. Dr. Weber has performed over 10,000 facial surgeries in his 15+ year career and has noted faster recovery, shorter downtime and fewer complications when procedures are performed in his office surgical suite when compared to procedure performed at an ambulatory surgery center under general anesthesia or IV sedation.
Anesthesia Options
One of the standout features of our in-office surgery offerings is the extensive array of anesthesia options available to you. This unique feature empowers you to make informed choices about your surgical experience. You have the flexibility to opt for oral sedation and local anesthesia, providing you with a more controlled and personalized approach to your procedure. This alternative method ensures a tailored experience and mitigates the risks and potential complications commonly associated with general anesthesia at an ambulatory surgery center, thus prioritizing your safety and well-being throughout the surgical process. Under Dr. Weber’s care it is possible to obtain your dream results without the need for an IV, general anesthesia or the additional cost of the ambulatory surgery center. This technique relies not only on Dr. Weber extensive surgical experience but his delicate touch and patient approach to local anesthesia.
Tumescent Anesthesia
We frequently employ a specialized anesthetic technique known as “tumescent anesthesia,” which has proven to be a game-changer in the realm of face and body surgical procedures. This innovative approach offers a nearly painless alternative to traditional local, intravenous or general anesthesia. This approach can allow you to undergo a wide array or elective facial procedures in a safe, comfortable and convenient environment without the need for an IV or general anesthesia and without the risk of nausea and vomiting that can sometimes result from deeper anesthetic techniques. By eliminating the need for more extensive forms of anesthesia, tumescent anesthesia plays a pivotal role in creating a safer and highly tailored surgical experience, ensuring your comfort and well-being remain at the forefront throughout the entirety of your procedure. Dr. Weber relies upon his 15+ years of experience to deliver exceptional local anesthesia resulting in absolute comfort for you without the need for deeper anesthesia.
A Host of Procedures
Dr. Weber is delighted to extend a comprehensive array of procedures, all conveniently available right here within the comforting confines of our office. From upper and lower eyelid surgery to brow lift surgery, deep plane facelift, neck lift, liposuction, chin and cheek augmentation, lip lifting, otoplasty, and buccal fat pad removal, our range of offerings is designed to address a diverse spectrum of cosmetic needs. What sets these procedures apart is that over 95% of these procedure are skillfully performed by Dr. Weber in our office surgical suite, eliminating the need for IV or general anesthesia. This not only ensures a highly convenient and efficient experience for you but also underscores our unwavering commitment to providing a tailored and personalized approach to each procedure, prioritizing your comfort and well-being every step of the way.
What Procedures Must be Performed at the ASC?
Dr. Weber always prefers to perform extensive rhinoplasty procedures and endoscopic browlift procedures at an accredited Ambulatory Surgery Center for both safety and your comfort. Comprehensive facial rejuvenation procedures that will require more than 4 ½ hours of surgery time are also most appropriately performed with deeper anesthesia techniques at an ASC. Last but not least, patient preference is critical in this decision making process and, on occasion, patients want to be totally unaware of any part of the surgical experience and request deeper anesthesia. Dr. Weber operates at an accredited ASC one day each week during which all of these procedures and patient preferences can be accommodated.
