Specialties & Services:

Philosophy:
My goal is to provide state of the art facial aesthetic treatment and plastic surgery to achieve beautiful, yet natural results. I operate only on the face and therefore am uniquely qualified to tailor each procedure to achieve an outcome harmonious with age and appearance. It is important to me to create a safe and comfortable environment so each patient feels confident they are receiving the highest quality facial plastic surgery and aesthetics care.
Why Cavalon Aesthetics?
I fell in love with the Pacific Northwest and was given the esteemed opportunity to join my mentor in facial plastic surgery in Seattle.
I practiced in Seattle for approximately three years until I was offered the opportunity to start up a facial plastic surgery practice in Kitsap County, an opportunity that I couldn’t pass up!
It was awesome to practice in a location where I was the only fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon in the community. Patients no longer have to travel to Seattle or elsewhere for superior services. In fact, we now have numerous patients that make the trip to Silverdale from Seattle (as well as other states and countries) to have their services performed here!
I am grateful for my position at Cavalon Aesthetics and look forward to meeting many new patients and expanding our practice in the future.
