One of Dr. Sampson's most popular procedures at Argyle Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery is breast lift. Ann Arbor, Lansing, and other Michigan residents choose this procedure when their breasts begin to sag due to age, childbirth, or significant weight loss. Breast cosmetic surgery in Detroit and Jackson can help a woman achieve a more youthful shape and contour.

This and other breast procedures are changing women's lives for the better in such communities as Dearborn, Ann Arbor, and Lansing. Breast lift surgery can be combined with breast augmentation for women who in addition to sagging have experienced decreased breast volume over time or due to nursing or weight loss. By placing breast implants at the time of the breast lift, Dr. Sampson is able to create a more voluptuous breast appearance for his patients from such communities as Detroit, Lansing, and Ann Arbor. Breast lift remains one of Dr. Sampson's most popular cosmetic procedures.

Dr. Sampson is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, the only group in the United States that evaluates and certifies plastic surgeons to operate on the whole body. In Michigan, any medical doctor - a gynecologist, dermatologist, or even family practitioner - can call themselves a cosmetic surgeon and perform cosmetic procedures without special training. If your surgeon tells you they are board certified, ask for the name of the board that completed the certification. Some doctors will have certificates from the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, which is not a true symbol of a surgeon who has received years of training in plastic and reconstructive surgical techniques. Trust your procedure to a board-certified plastic surgeon near Detroit like Dr. Sampson.

Dr. Sampson performs many cosmetic procedures in an office-based surgical facility (the Cosmetic Surgery Center) that offers his Jackson, Lansing, and Ann Arbor plastic and reconstructive surgery patients and their families a quiet, relaxing environment.
