Services
Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses visible signs of aging in the face and neck. This procedure tightens underlying tissues and removes excess skin to create a more youthful appearance. Ideal candidates seek long-lasting results for sagging skin, deep creases, or jowls. Our approach prioritizes natural outcomes while maintaining facial expressiveness.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances size and shape through implants or fat transfer. We offer customized solutions for women seeking improved proportions, reconstruction patients, or gender-affirming care. The procedure addresses asymmetry, volume loss, or congenital conditions while ensuring balanced, natural results aligned with individual goals.
Gender Affirming Surgery
Gender-affirming procedures align physical appearance with gender identity. We specialize in top surgery, body contouring, and facial feminization/masculinization. Our approach combines technical precision with deep understanding of transgender healthcare needs, focusing on creating harmonious, life-changing results that support patients' self-confidence.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty improves nasal aesthetics and/or function. This procedure addresses size, shape, symmetry, or breathing issues through customized surgical techniques. We prioritize structural integrity while achieving balanced proportions that enhance facial harmony and meet individual aesthetic goals.
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery flattens and tightens the abdominal area by removing excess skin and fat while repairing separated muscles. Ideal for post-pregnancy body changes or significant weight loss patients, this procedure creates a firmer, more toned midsection through comprehensive tissue reshaping.

I am one week post op from rhinoplasty and wow! First off, I look exactly how I've always hoped my nose could look. Dr. Bartlett did such a beautiful job for me. And the whole nurse staff is amazing. I got heated socks and a heated blanket when I arrived for my surgery and everyone ensured I was very comfortable. The anesthesiologist was also great and made me laugh when I was going under. It was all very seamless. Thank you!

I am 2 days post op from a breast reduction done by Dr. Bartlett. We chose Brigham and Woman's Faulkner hospital to do the surgery at. I am THRILLED with how they look so far and I haven't needed to take one narcotic, only Tylenol. Dr. Bartlett took such good care of me and let me know a timeline for when I should go back to everyday activities I was doing prior to surgery. Nurse Emily that works at his practice kept me in the loop and had amazing communication with me about the surgery and even my disability paperwork.
This has been an amazing life changing experience for me and I couldn't be any happier. My first post op visit is Wednesday! ONE YEAR POST OP NOW: I am so happy with he results and my overall experience. So thankful for everyone on the Bartett team :

I had FTM top surgery with Bartlett and could not recommend him enough. He listened to everything I said about how I wanted my chest to look, and did just that. I didn't have almost any pain after surgery and the only meds I took was Tylenol. His office assistant Sarah was an absolute sweetheart. She took great care of be during my post op and assured me everything looked great. Overall I had an amazing experience and I am so glad I chose him to do my surgery.

Every step of the way was explained clearly and respectfully. Not only is his work AMAZING, but every member of his team is so professional and friendly. I never felt stranded--I knew I could go to them and receive prompt replies to questions. I felt very comfortable: I knew what to expect, I knew what to watch out for. I've had a lot of friends get top surgery with other surgeons, but I have to say: my results at 3 months look worlds better than theirs do after a year. Thank you so much for your talent and your care, Bartlett-Fam!

My experience with Dr. Bartlett and his staff was absolutely amazing. I've never been to a doctor's office that was this responsive and helpful before. From my first consultation, I knew I trusted Dr. Bartlett and his staff. I had DI top surgery and would recommend for any trans or gender non-conforming individuals looking to have top surgery. Dr. Bartlett and his staff follow-up multiple times to ensure the healing process is going well and I'm only three weeks post-op at this point. My results are already looking great. I'm happy that I chose Dr. Bartlett to be my surgeon and recommend him and his phenomenal staff to everyone.

Dr. Bartlett took such good care of me throughout the process of getting double incision surgery. He was friendly and welcoming, and everyone in his office made me feel at home. The surgery went smoothly and my results turned out better than I expected. I couldn't have chosen a better surgeon!
