Murfreesboro Cosmetic & Functional Surgery — From Goals to a Clear, Customized Plan

Big picture first: you want results that work in daily life—easier breathing, a face that looks rested, and a body that feels comfortable—while still looking like you. At Image Cosmetic Surgery Center, care is led by an ABPS board-certified plastic surgeon with 40+ years in medicine, and we publish transparent starting prices so you can plan with confidence.

How We Work (General: Specific)

  1. Listen & assess: your goals, health, timeline.
  2. Map options: pros/cons, recovery, and a written quote (with published starting prices online). 
  3. Precise treatment: techniques chosen to protect function (airway, tissue support) and deliver natural aesthetics.
  4. Follow-through: clear aftercare and check-ins.

Meet the Doctor

Dr. Lewis Friedlander, Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon

Decades of experience, reconstructive precision, and an artist’s eye. Patients value his straightforward counseling, conservative approach to injectables, and surgical plans that respect real schedules—work, kids, training, and events. The goal is simple: you, functional and confident, with results that blend in everywhere you go.

All Services We Offer 

Rhinoplasty (functional + cosmetic)

Refines shape and addresses airflow—performed via an intranasal approach (no external skin scars). Tip support and bridge refinement are tailored to balance your features. 

Facelift

Modern, tissue-repositioning technique with access through a hairline incision to elevate the cheek/under-eye support for natural movement (not a skin-pull). 

Neck Lift

Uses smaller, well-placed incisions to tighten laxity, sharpen the jawline, and support a clean neck profile; garment use is part of recovery. 

Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty)

Reduces heaviness and under-eye bags for an alert look (listed in our pricing & services). 

Mini-Facelift

Short-incision option for early laxity (see pricing list). 

Lip Fillers & Dermal Fillers

Subtle contouring for lips, cheeks, folds; designed to keep proportions natural. (Listed among face services and pricing.) 

Botox®

Softens frown/forehead/crow’s-feet lines with precise dosing (see pricing). 

Breast Augmentation

Saline or silicone implants above or below the muscle, plus fat-transfer options; profiles and incision locations are matched to your goals. 

Breast Reduction

Multiple techniques (peri-areolar “donut,” lollipop, anchor, and free-nipple grafts when needed) to relieve neck/back strain and improve proportion. 

Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia)

Removes excess gland/fat to restore a flatter, more athletic chest contour. 

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Lower or full techniques to remove loose skin; muscle repair when separation/weakness is present; incision kept below standard swimwear lines when feasible. 

Liposuction (incl. 360°)

Targets stubborn fat with safety-first planning (commonly 5 liters removed in office-based cases; larger volumes staged or done in hospital). 

Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

Your own fat is purified and transferred to shape natural curves; info shared on fat survival (≈50–60%), plane-safe placement, and an extensive track record (Dr. Friedlander reports 1,000+ BBLs). 

When Each Service Helps (specific signals to watch for)

  • Can’t breathe well / snoring / post-injury obstruction :  Rhinoplasty. 
  • Early jowls or hollow lower lids :  Facelift that repositions deep tissues instead of pulling skin. 
  • Neck bands / soft jawline:  Neck lift with small, strategic incisions. 
  • Hooded lids / under-eye bags :  Eyelid lift. 
  • Discomfort from heavy breasts :  Breast reduction (technique matched to breast size/skin). 
  • Volume or symmetry goals :  Augmentation (implant or fat transfer). 
  • Loose skin after weight change / pregnancy :  Tummy tuck (with or without muscle repair). 
  • Diet-resistant pockets :  Liposuction with conservative, guideline-based limits. 
  • Curve enhancement using your own tissue :  BBL (safety-focused technique). 
  • Quick refresh / event-ready glow :  Botox, fillers, laser/skin refresh.

How We Work (so it feels calm and clear)

  • Function first, beauty always. Airflow, muscle support, and skin quality guide the plan; aesthetics are designed around you.
  • Natural-looking results. Friends notice you look refreshed—not “different.”
  • Accredited safety. Procedures in a fully accredited setting with experienced anesthesia care.
  • Transparent pricing and timelines. You’ll know costs, recovery steps, and realistic milestones up front.
  • Travel-friendly. Virtual consults, efficient scheduling, and smart follow-ups for busy Middle Tennessee lives.

Quick FAQs

Will rhinoplasty help my breathing?

If blockage comes from structure (deviated septum, narrow valves, or enlarged turbinates), functional rhinoplasty can improve airflow—cosmetic refinements can happen in the same surgery.

How “natural” is a facelift or eyelid surgery?

We move deeper support layers (not just skin) and keep proportions in balance. You’ll look like you on a full night’s sleep.

How long is the recovery?

Most people take about 1–2 weeks of social downtime for rhinoplasty or eyelids; facelift/neck lift often needs around 2 weeks before light activities; tummy tuck usually means about 2 weeks before desk work (core activity returns in stages). Your plan is personalized.

Can I start non-surgical first?

Absolutely. Many patients begin with Botox, fillers, and lasers to refresh their look and then plan surgery when ready.
