Procedures I'm known for

Post-Pregnancy Procedures
Many women feel self-conscious after giving birth. Their body has gone through significant changes and it can be taking a toll on one’s confidence. Dr. Hardesty understands women feelings and he takes the time to listen to each of his patients desires and their specific concerns. Having performed many mommy makeovers, he wants to help every woman to return to their pre-pregnancy shape or even better.
Breast Surgery
Some patients choose to enhance the size of their breasts via breast augmentation to bring better balance to their figures, while others may wish to return to their pre-pregnancy size, reverse the signs of aging, and improve the breast shape with a breast augmentation. When the breast sags, breast augmentation is often paired with a breast lift, this is known as “masto-aug.” Whatever your reason for selecting a breast augmentation procedure, Dr. Hardesty, an experienced board-certified Plastic Surgeon, and his team at Imagine Plastic Surgery located in Riverside, California can help you not only “Imagine the Difference” but make it a reality!
Abdominoplasty
Many women after pregnancy can’t get rid of the “mommy bump”, loose skin, or stretch marks despite returning to their pre-pregnancy weight. Both men and women who have tried to lose stubborn diet-resistant belly fat through exercise and diet become discouraged and frustrated. Tummy tuck, medically referred to as Abdominoplasty, is a treatment option to help get rid of this excess skin and fat. Additionally, when we perform any of the variations of the Abdominoplasty, we always include liposuction of the flanks (where “muffin top” fat accumulation occurs). Thus, our procedures are more accurately called a Lipo-Abdominoplasty which helps you achieve the complete and desired abdominal and hip contours. This “Synergy” is reached from this combination of procedures. By providing different types of tummy tuck we fulfill our motto of, “One Goal, Many Options”. With Dr. Hardesty and the expert team at Imagine Plastic Surgery, you can finally feel your best and look your best.
