Having asymmetrical breasts is not unusual at all. It’s estimated that at least one half of all women have uneven breasts. But it can make a woman feel self-conscious when naked or in a swimsuit. That’s no good in our warm South Carolina climate where we spend lots of our time around the water. To […]
Noses are like annoying relatives — everyone’s got one. Unfortunately, rather than seeing them once a year at Thanksgiving, you have to see your unwanted nose every morning in the mirror. The reasons we like or hate our nose is personal and varies between people. It may be a size issue. Maybe there’s a bump […]
While we don’t have winters on the scale of Minnesota or Montana, most of us still put away the sundresses and bathing suits at least for a couple months. That’s why this is a great time to call Dr. Smith and schedule a liposuction procedure. Unwanted pockets of fat are as common as live oaks […]
