Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg (PSSF) has been the premier provider of cosmetic surgery in the Richmond area since its inception in 1983. The fully accredited and state-of-the-art surgery center boasts an experienced team of board-certified plastic surgeons focused on providing patients with personalized aesthetic care.
The PSSF offices are modern
and comfortable.
L. Thomas Albert, MD, FACS, founded Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg with the aim of establishing a leading-edge facility through which he could provide patients with his unique brand of naturally balanced aesthetics. Prior to his retirement in April 2008, Dr. Albert hand-selected several distinguished surgeons to join the practice: in 1991 Howard Heppe, MD, and in 1993 Harold Bautista, MD. Along with Pejman Aflaki, MD, their combined technical experience and artistic flair help carry on Dr. Albert’s work of making Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg one of the most sought-after cosmetic surgery centers in Virginia.
This elite team holds patient comfort and satisfaction as their top priority. Procedures are performed using the most advanced technologies and the latest surgical techniques to ensure precision and patient safety. The full spectrum of cosmetic surgery treatments are performed including procedures of the breast (breast augmentation, breast lift and breast reduction), body (liposuction, tummy tuck, buttocks augmentation, and body, arm and thigh lifts), face (facelift, neck lift, nose surgery and chin augmentation) and combination services for “mommy makeovers,” body contouring after weight loss and other patient needs. In fact, PSSF offers the latest developed techniques of plastic surgery, including the advanced breast augmentation method, called endoscopic transaxillary augmentation. The procedure involves the insertion of breast implants through a small incision along the top of the armpit. The advantage of endoscopic transaxillary augmentation is that it eliminates the need for any scars along the breast and the surrounding tissue. Patients work closely with their surgeon to determine the best procedure or combination of procedures needed to meet their treatment expectations.
breast lifts, reductions and compare gel and
saline implants as well as placement options.
PSSF also provides prescription skin care services and popular treatments such as the FRAXEL laser, BOTOX® therapy and dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation.
