Dr. Solmer specializes in plastic surgical procedures of the face, breast, and body. (He also enjoys surfing and painting.)

• Common facial procedures include eyelid surgery, facelift, forehead lift, skin resurfacing, rhinoplasty and otoplasty.

There is no charge for your initial cosmetic surgery consultation, at which time you meet Dr. Solmer and discuss treatment options.

• Breast surgery is a large part of his practice, especially breast augmentation, lift, reduction, reconstruction, and male breast reduction. In many cases he is able to perform breast enlargement through only a small incision in your belly button (transumbilical breast augmentation).

• Body contouring options include tumescent and PAL liposuction,
abdominoplasty, thigh and body lift, and the care of post-gastric bypass patients.

Online before and after photos are limited due to privacy concerns, but Dr. Solmer has an extensive collection of surgical results available for your viewing in the office.
