Facelift

This surgical procedure addresses facial aging by removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues for a refreshed appearance. Ideal for patients with moderate to severe facial sagging, it can be customized as a traditional or mini facelift depending on individual needs. Our board-certified surgeons ensure natural results that restore youthful contours while maintaining facial expressiveness.

Blepharoplasty

Targeting upper and lower eyelid concerns, this procedure reduces puffiness, bags, and sagging skin for a more alert appearance. It can improve vision by lifting drooping upper lids while addressing under-eye concerns through fat redistribution techniques. Our approach prioritizes subtle rejuvenation that enhances natural eye aesthetics without overcorrection.

CoolSculpting

This non-invasive treatment uses controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat cells in targeted areas like the abdomen and love handles. Ideal for patients near their ideal weight, it requires no downtime while delivering gradual, natural-looking body contouring results. Our specialists create personalized treatment plans to address individual body-shaping goals.

Botox

FDA-approved injectables temporarily smooth dynamic wrinkles in areas like the forehead and crow's feet through muscle relaxation. Administered by experienced professionals, treatments take minutes with visible results appearing within days. We prioritize natural expression preservation while addressing specific facial aging concerns.

Laser Skin Rejuvenation

Fractional CO2 laser treatments address sun damage, fine lines, and uneven texture through controlled skin regeneration. This non-surgical option stimulates collagen production for improved skin tone and elasticity. Our customized approach balances treatment intensity with appropriate recovery periods for optimal aesthetic outcomes.

Had a skin tag on my eyelid removed. Pretty sensitive area. The good Dr and his staff did an excellent job. He also answered any questions I had. The process was afordable and painless. Highly recommend.

I do not recommend Dr. Ben Hugo or his practice. The practice is run inefficiently with one side of the office competing with the other for patient rooms, sending out confusing text messages and receiving phone calls about conflicting appointment times and generally poor management. Examples are: having me leave the room so the aesthetician could use it, scheduling a carpet cleaning company to come during regular business hours thereby blocking the exit that is used for post op patients (can't use a wheelchair causing the patient to have to navigate curbs, grass and other cars while still partially sedated.) The anesthesia used was ineffective.

I spent an hour in tears asking for more medication and being told to hold still or "I might make an error". More meds would have worked! What they did give me were 5 pills: 1 pill to calm the nerves and 4 opioid pills for pain. Patient anesthesia should be catered for that specific patient; it was the most traumatic experience of my life. Bottom line: while I believe Dr Hugo to be a competent physician, there were just too many issues with practice management and adequate pain control during the procedure.

Unfortunately, I was given inadequate pain control for a recent procedure. When I couldn't stop crying because of the pain, I was told I had been given enough. Really? Dr. Hugo said I should sleep through the procedure. I promise that wasn't the case. Awake and in pain and my concerns were brushed aside so they could finish their half day Friday

Very Tramatic Experience, unfavorable unwelcomed behavior. This M.D. was NOT Honest with me about a Traumatic Situation that happened during A Procedure. The Dishonesty was the Deal Breaker for me. I hope this Doctor's Dishonest bedside Manner has NOT Continued, to say the least. Honesty, is Critical when putting your life in a Doctor's hands.

I've been seeing Dr. Hugo for a number of years. He is very honest, intelligent and professional. His Botox technique is by far the best I've ever had. Friends, family and strangers always ask me my secret. I send them straight to Dr. Hugo. His staff is friendly and professional as well. Don't go anywhere else!

Dr. Hugo spent a great deal of time explaining the procedure as well as the expected results. His stellar reputation, calm demeanor, and honesty were a welcome change from my consultations with other cosmetic surgeons. I can't speak highly enough about my experience. From the initial consultation to the post procedure follow up, Dr. Hugo and his staff provided exceptional care with phenomenal results.

Dr. Hugo is the absolute King of Botox! I've been elsewhere for Botox treatments and never realized how much different injectors and different treatments can affect your outcomes until I saw a photo of me with my husband at an event. I couldn't figure out why I looked manish until I realized I'd had Botox somewhere other than with Dr. Hugo! Seriously, you really want to trust the person who is treating you and know they understand why you need injections in specific spots on your face. Dr. Hugo is fantastic and I've been getting Botox for over 10 years but from now on only Dr. H will touch my face!
