Unlike some plastic surgery practices that essentially offer only plastic surgery, at The Aesthetic Center of Connecticut, our first approach is almost always non-surgical. Today's technology allows non-invasive approaches to most aesthetic problems and this is accompanied in most instances by shorter recoveries, less need for anesthesia, less risk and lower cost. Examples would be our preference for CoolSculpting non-invasive fat removal over liposuction, use of BOTOX, fillers and non invasive skin tightening, as well as our use of lasers and radio frequency technology. This requires a sizable ongoing investment in the latest technology - and we've done that. What makes us unique is that when it's time for the surgical approach, we offer the skill and experience of a board certified plastic surgeon with over 35 years of surgical experience. We are pleased to offer CoolSculpting as well as ultrasonic liposuction for body contouring along with Dr. O'Connell's BAND technique for drainless abdominoplasty, also known as, no-drain abdominoplasty. Dr. O'Connell is an expert on breast surgery and he has a vast experience with breast augmentation, breast reduction and breast lifting, also known as mastopexy. The Aesthetic Center offers a nationally accredited, on premises, outpatient surgical facility where such procedures as a facelift, browlift and eyelid lift, also known as blepharoplasty can be performed. Dr. O'Connell was one of the originators of the no-touch blepharoplasty technique. We're pleased to be able to perform a newer body contouring procedure, labiaplasty, in our facility under local anesthesia at a cost that is substantially lower than when the procedure is performed at a hospital. We offer laser resurfacing with full field erbium resurfacing and ProFractional from Sciton as well as Fraxel Dual, intense pulsed light therapy (IPL) and laser hair removal. We have a PicoWay picosecond laser that offers the latest in tattoo and brown spot removal and also provides facial rejuvenation with their Resolve technology. We've recently made a significant investment in the latest radio frequency based technology including ThermiVa for vaginal tightening and labial contouring, ThermiSmooth for facial wrinkle treatment, IntraCel for non-invasive facial tightening and IntraGen for tightening of the skin off the face. We do not offer Ultherapy, Sculptsure or Smart Lipo at this time. We offer platelet rich plasma therapy with the Selphyl system for facial rejuvenation and also for hair regeneration. Our patients come from a wide geographic area including Westport, Weston, Greenwich, Fairfield and New Canaan, Connecticut and we have many patients from elsewhere in Fairfield County Connecticut and Westchester County New York. We almost always have the three major neuromodulators, BOTOX cosmetic, Dysport and Xeomin on premises and we stock a wide variety of fillers including Restylane, Juvederm, Juvederm Voluma, Juvederm Volbella, Restylane Silk, Restylane Defyne, Restylane Refyne as well as Sculptra Aesthetic and Radiesse.
