Feeling self-conscious about a nose that doesn’t breathe well, heavy eyelids that make you look tired, or a midsection that never bounced back after pregnancy isn’t “vanity”—it’s real life. At Image Cosmetic Surgery Center, we focus on function first, aesthetics always, so you can breathe easier, move comfortably, and look like the most confident version of yourself—without looking “overdone.”
Known for meticulous technique and balance, Dr. Friedlander blends reconstructive principles with an artist’s eye—prioritizing function (like nasal airflow and core support) while achieving refined, natural aesthetics. Patients appreciate his honest counsel, conservative dosing with injectables, and plans that respect their lifestyle and timeline.
This procedure combines structural correction with aesthetic refinement. Functionally, it can restore airflow, reduce mouth-breathing headaches, and improve sleep quality by straightening a deviated septum and supporting internal and external nasal valves. Cosmetically, it balances the nose’s tip and bridge for harmony with your facial features—resulting in a nose that not only looks right for your face but also works properly.
Designed for patients with jowls, deep nasolabial folds, and a “heavy” midface, this technique lifts the SMAS and deep facial tissues, not just the skin. This approach offers natural movement, long-lasting results, a sharper jawline, and softer facial folds—helping you look refreshed without appearing overdone.
Addresses neck bands, sagging skin, and a blunted jaw–neck angle. By tightening underlying muscles and removing excess skin, it restores a smooth, defined neck profile that looks great both in photos and real life.
Targets hooded upper lids, puffiness, and under-eye shadows. This surgery brightens and opens the eyes, creating a well-rested, alert appearance without altering your natural expression.
Enhances or restores breast volume and symmetry using implants or fat transfer for a fuller, balanced shape that complements your body.
Removes excess breast tissue to relieve neck and shoulder pain, improve posture, and make daily activities and sports more comfortable.
Elevates and reshapes the breasts for a more youthful and supported appearance. It can be performed alone or combined with implants for added volume.
Removes excess skin, repairs separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), and improves core support for a smoother, firmer midsection.
Targets and removes stubborn fat deposits in areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and chin to sculpt a more defined contour.
A customized plan that addresses multiple areas from “neck to knee,” minimizing total downtime while achieving harmonious body proportions.
Uses your own purified fat to enhance curves and create a more balanced waist-to-hip ratio for a natural, shapely silhouette.
Softens frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet with precise, subtle injections that maintain natural facial expression.
Restores facial volume, enhances lips, and smooth’s wrinkles or folds—designed to keep proportions natural and balanced.
Improves skin tone, texture, and firmness by resurfacing, tightening, and reducing pigmentation—customizable for different recovery times and needs.
Q1: I can’t breathe well through my nose. Do I need septoplasty or rhinoplasty?
If obstruction is structural (septum, valves, turbinates), a functional rhinoplasty addresses airflow and, if desired, cosmetic balance in one surgery. We’ll confirm with the exam and photos.
Q2: How “natural” will my facelift look?
Our deep-plane approach repositions muscle/fascia, not just skin, so expressions move normally and results don’t look pulled.
Q3: Can I combine procedures to reduce total recovery?
Yes—common pairings include rhinoplasty + eyelids, facelift + neck lift + laser, or tummy tuck + lipo + BBL when medically appropriate.
Q4: Will insurance cover the functional parts of nose surgery?
If documented obstruction exists, functional components may be eligible. We provide the notes you can submit to your insurer.
Q5: Where will scars be?
We hide incisions along natural creases and hairlines when possible; we also guide scar care and laser refinement.
