Introduction

Cosmetic surgery refers to the reshaping of a normal structures of the face or body in order to improve a patient's appearance and self-esteem. The psychological impact of improving one's appearance by making structural changes or the use of cosmetic procedures to reduce the signs of aging can have profound effects on the way people think about themselves. As a result of such procedures, people often function better because they feel better. 

There are a variety of options available to patients. A list of procedures, along with brief descriptions may be found under the "Procedures' Index.". 

Keep in mind that we at the Mid Hudson Plastic Surgery Center have an excellent library of brochures and pamphlets. We will be pleased to send you one or more, if you will contact us (845-338-0789). We are also available to arrange a consultation for you with Dr. Hagerty.
