Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape through implants or fat transfer. Ideal for women seeking improved proportions, post-pregnancy restoration, or post-mastectomy reconstruction. Our surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure natural-looking results while prioritizing patient safety and satisfaction.
Facelift
Facelift procedures address visible signs of aging in the face and neck. Our board-certified surgeons employ both traditional and minimally invasive techniques to restore youthful contours. Patients benefit from personalized treatment plans that may include brow lifts, eyelid surgery, or non-surgical injectables for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting Elite uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat cells without surgery. This FDA-cleared treatment targets areas like the abdomen, thighs, and chin. Our certified technicians customize treatment plans to help patients achieve body contouring goals with no downtime required for most procedures.
Botox Injections
Botox Cosmetic injections temporarily reduce facial wrinkles by relaxing underlying muscles. Our experienced injectors target frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkles with precision. We also offer complementary treatments like Juvderm fillers for comprehensive facial rejuvenation and natural-looking results.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes excess fat deposits to improve body contours. Our surgeons use advanced techniques like tumescent liposuction and laser-assisted methods for enhanced precision. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, thighs, arms, and neck, with results that complement healthy lifestyle choices.

Report
Dr. Schneider performed a septo-rhinoplasty on me several weeks ago due to some breathing issues I was having. He took the time to answer all of my questions before surgery, and prepared me for what to expect after surgery. Everything went very well and it took less time than originally estimated. I noticed an immediate difference in my ability to breathe through my nose after our first follow up visit.
I'm so happy with the results so far and only wish I would have done it sooner. I chose Forsyth Plastic Surgery after visiting The Vista (downstairs) for CoolTone. The aestheticians were kind and knowledgeable. I had no issues with scheduling or insurance/billing. Top notch patient care!

I saw Dr. Schneider in 2008 for a breast reduction and he was kind, took his time, answered all my questions and calmed my fears about the surgery. I have been seeing him the last few years for Botox and he's been okay, but the last time I went in to get botox he didn't seem like the same doctor. Mt botox was horrible. I felt as if he was playing darts with my face. He did not have me squint. He brused my forehead badly, and nothing was symmetrical. Crows feet not even touched.
Ever since the "Vista" has come along, he seems a little bit more interested and motivated by the $$$ than the patient. Unfortunately I will need to find another provider. I say unfortunate because I thought he and Rayna were like family.

Dr. Schneider was my surgeon who made me feel at ease and comfortable along with whole staff. I'm giving 1 stars because Dr. Schneider had good bedside manners. Dr. Schneider reassured me my breast implants would be same size as my original breast and he would liposuction the sides of my breast reconstruction due to cancer. But he left the fat tissue on both sides and it looks horrible. The surgeon that cut me did an even horrible job. It took me a year to be able to look at my breast in the mirror. I'm so tired of black women being treated poorly or experimented on by doctors.

I am a confident and successful business woman, however I have always been self-conscience about my large breasts. Dr. Schneider put me at ease immediately with his genuine concern for my well-being and sensitivity to my concerns. My breast reduction was just 2 weeks ago. Everyone has been very attentive with follow up and care. I truly feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I highly recommend Dr. Schneider and his team at Forsyth Plastic Surgery. They are wonderful!

I have had two very positive experiences at Forsyth Plastic Surgery /Vista recently. Dr. Lawson performed MOHS surgery on my nose after discovering I had basal cell carcinoma. He was very encouraging, transparent, and professional the entire time and I am healing nicely. More recently, Gina Racca administered my first ever facial peel. I was a little nervous about it but she explained everything thoroughly and was attentive to my apprehension.
It is about a week after the peel and I am very happy with the results! I am so glad to have discovered this place and everyone I've dealt with has been wonderful. Daniele at the front desk is always very nice and informative! She always offers a smile and a warm welcome.
