Dr. Michael Echavez is a Bay Area native that specializes in plastic surgery of the face and neck and one of a few very few physicians to perform coolsculpting by Zeltiq. Dr. Echavez also trains other physicians across the country in the use of injectable fillers such as Sculptra and Radiesse. Other fillers that he specializes in include Restylane, Juvederm and Artefill. Botox and Dysport injections are also offered.
One other area of specialization is in the treatments for HIV lipodystrophy. This would include procedures to restore the loss of fat in the face associated with HIV, and procedures to reduce the fat accumulation (i.e. buffalo hump) that can also occur with this condition.
Coolsculpting by Zeltiq is an exciting new procedure that can non-surgically reduce unwanted areas of fat. The procedure is done by external cooling of the area which then causes a reduction in the number of fat cells to the treated area. The procedure is done in the office with no recovery period needed. The most commonly treated areas are the flanks (love handles), the front of the abdomen (spare tire), or the sides of the lower back. Ideal candidates are people who are fit but have resistant areas of isolated fat.
Cosmetic procedures offered include facelift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), rhinoplasty (nose surgery), liposuction of the neck, forehead lift, augmentation of the cheeks and chin, otoplasty (pinning back of the ears), laser skin resurfacing, scar revision, and mole removal.
