Dr. Alan Burke: Facial Plastics & Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic surgery does not have to be invasive—in fact, many patients can achieve their aesthetic goals without the hassle or commitment of surgery. Made possible by advancements in modern technology, non-surgical plastic surgery procedures are effective, less painful, boast shorter recovery times and are oftentimes less of a financial investment than traditional plastic surgery. Dr. Alan Burke: Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery in Henrico, VA proudly offers several aesthetic, non-surgical treatments to help you achieve your desired results. Our Aesthetic, Non-Surgical Procedures Phototherapy, Pigment & More Advancements in aesthetic technology have made laser treatments a popular option for patients seeking to improve skin tone and pigment, and remove unwanted acne or hair. We offer a variety of Broad Band Light (BBL) phototherapy treatments, including BBL® Hero™️, Forever Young®, SkinTyte®, Forever Bare BBL® and Forever Clear BBL®. Skin Resurfacing & Scar Revisions Skin resurfacing is a cosmetic, non-invasive laser procedure that is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, smoothen skin texture, improve scarring and the overall appearance of the skin. We use the latest lasers and resurfacing technology to ensure effective and radiant results while treating a wide range of skin concerns. Tightening with Radiofrequency RF—also called radiofrequency—is a scientifically proven way to tighten, contour and resurface the skin. Radiofrequency technology is used to stimulate collagen remodeling. We offer several types of radiofrequency treatments by Inmode to help you meet your aesthetic goals. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Platelet Rich Plasma, or PRP, can be used to restore hair loss, rejuvenate the skin and correct facial volume loss. This non-invasive procedure uses plasma from the patient’s own blood that is then re-injected into the skin to stimulate cells, promote healing and release numerous growth factors. We use the Eclipse ProGen kits to deliver the most concentrated, effective and safe PRP treatment on the market. Injectables, Neurotoxin & Fillers Cosmetic injections are a popular non-surgical treatment that is used to improve the appearance of the face and reduce signs of aging. Our licensed aesthetic nurses are highly experienced at performing a variety of injectable treatments and aim to make the treatment as relaxed and pain-free as possible. Injectable treatments include neurotoxins such as Botox® and Jeuveau®, and dermal fillers such as Juvederm® and RHA.

Dr. Burke and his expert plastic surgery team offer a broad range of plastic surgery procedures in the Richmond area. These procedures are provided to help you feel as happy and comfortable as possible in your body. We understand that the decision to pursue plastic surgery and surgical reconstructive procedures is not a light one. During your initial consultation with Dr. Burke and our team, we will outline our surgical treatment options and thoroughly educate you on the preparation, surgical steps and recovery process for these procedures so you can make informed decisions about your care. We approach each surgical procedure with care, attention to detail and expertise—resulting in natural-looking transformations and a positive treatment experience from start to finish. Rhinoplasty For patients who want to change the shape and appearance of their nose, rhinoplasty—casually known as a nose job—may be the solution. This procedure can also correct breathing problems and repair deviated septums. Facelift and Neck Lift As we age, the face and neck, like the rest of the skin, naturally sags and wrinkles. We lose much of the “tightness” we often associate with youthful skin. A facelift surgically improves the appearance of wrinkles and aging in the face. A facelift is commonly combined with the neck lift procedure, or lower rhytidectomy. Brow Lift A brow lift, also known as an upper facelift or forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the forehead, eyebrows and upper eyelids. It is designed to correct wrinkles and sagging skin in the forehead area, as well as to elevate the position of the eyebrows for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Upper & Lower Blepharoplasty Blepharoplasty, also known as an eyelift, is surgery used to improve the appearance of the skin around the eyes. The procedure can be performed on either the upper or lower eyelids, or both if needed. While most patients who seek this procedure aim to treat aging concerns, it can also be performed to address medical concerns such as impaired vision. Facial Sculpting with Fat Grafting Facial sculpting is a procedure where fat is transferred to add volume to the face. Liposuction removes fat from areas where there is often an excess of fat, such as the abdomen, thighs or buttocks. Facial sculpting with fat grafting is a great option to naturally achieve the effects of dermal fillers by using your own body. Mentoplasty: Chin Augmentation Chin and neck sculpting, also known as mentoplasty or genioplasty, can alter the shape and size of the chin for a more symmetrical face shape. There are two main types of genioplasty: chin augmentation and chin reduction. Otoplasty People with prominent ears can sometimes feel self-conscious about their appearance. If this is the case for you, Dr. Burke and our expert plastic surgery team can help! Commonly known as ear surgery, otoplasty reshapes, prepositions and resizes the ears, helping make them less noticeable and more aesthetically pleasing. Skin Cancer Reconstruction MOHS micrographic surgery is a specialized surgical technique used by certified dermatologists to treat skin cancer. Dr. Burke partners with various MOHS surgeons, such as Dermatology Associates of Virginia (DAV), to assist in the surgical closure and reconstruction of facial skin cancers.
