Your face is likely the first thing others notice about you and the first thing you see about yourself. What you notice in the mirror can affect your self-confidence and can also influence the way others think about you. Whether you want to make a change to reverse the effects of time or aging, repair damage, or alter an inherited feature you don't like, plastic surgery might be able to deliver the results you desire.
A facelift improves the visible signs of aging on the face and neck by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles and redraping the skin. A facelift can be done alone or in conjunction with another procedure such as a brow lift, eyelid surgery or nose reshaping.
The best candidate for a facelift is a man or woman whose face and neck have begun to sag, but whose skin still has some elasticity and whose bone structure is strong and well-defined.Most patients are in their forties to sixties, but facelifts can be done successfully on people in their seventies or eighties as well.

A brow lift, also called a forehead lift, is a procedure that lessens creases on the forehead or across the bridge of the nose. As we age, chronic contraction of the muscle above the eyebrows causes deep lines across the forehead and between the eyebrows, or in some cases drooping of the eyebrows. This can make us look tired, sad or even angry all the time.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Appel and the team here. I came for reconstruction as part of a double mastectomy due to breast cancer. Dr. Appel is EXCELLENT - so professional and both my surgeries (expanders and then implants) went very well. Visually, every other doctor I see (oncologist, radiation) comment on what a good job he did on the aesthetics and the health of my skin post-surgery. His PA Jennifer Little is also excellent, very patient and compassionate (you will see her a lot for expansion and drain removal). The front desk staff is so nice and professional. This was one

Dr Wormer gave me back my life. I wouldn't wish breast cancer on anyone, but if you do get it and need reconstruction, I highly recommend Dr Wormer. He's kind, compassionate, and more importantly, is excellent at his craft and quite the perfectionist. I had a DIEP reconstruction done using my belly. So if you don't want breast implants after a cancer diagnosis, it's a great option. Alex, Dr Wormer's PA is also amazing. Dr Appel is also great.

Jennifer Little, Sandy, and Melissa are kind, professional, wonderful! Definitely treat you like a person not just one of many clients/patients. Dr Appel is thoughtful, caring, and his craftsmanship is beyond any comparison!! He takes his time for what is best for me, personally. There were a lot of bumps in the road after radiation which effected my reconstruction. His attention before, during and after my reconstruction has been excellently thorough.

I got a breast reduction. Yes I started my process oct 2020…I met Dr. Blair Wormer he was straight forward, honest and confident. The process was easy. The ladies in his office were very helpful! I wasn’t nervous until the day of but when he walked in, his confidence and knowledge made me very comfortable. I’m a month post op and I am beyond satisfied and relieved. He did a great job!

I was diagnosed with invasive ductile breast cancer in June of 2020. This after having mammograms every six months for four consecutive years. During that time I had three biopsies with two being benign. The third one was malignant. Dr. Wormer and “Alex” were part of my reconstructive team after my decision to go for a same day bilateral mastectomy with reconstructive surgery. As I look back at my first visit with them I am in awe at their compassion and understanding because I was still in shock...just going through the motions. Today I am thankful I chose the surgery I did and was blessed
