Tattoo-RemovalDo you have a tattoo that you wish you could get rid of? If so, we can help.

Laser tattoo removal often yields poor results. The treatments are expensive, require multiple procedures and do not completely remove the tattoo. This is particularly true for tattoos with color. Therefore, the best option is often excision of the tattoo. If the tattoo is small, this can be done in one treatment. If the tattoo is medium or large in size, Dr. Cabbabe may recommend serial excision. In this manner, Dr. Cabbabe takes advantage of the natural elasticity of the skin and the tattoo is excised in 2 or 3 stages, thereby reducing the size of the scar that would be needed to remove the tattoo in one session.

Dr. Cabbabe incorporates his experience with reconstructive and cosmetic surgery to give his patients the best results possible to meet their desires. He is an expert in cosmetic, reconstructive and minimally invasive plastic surgery. During your consultation, Dr. Cabbabe will carefully examine you and will make recommendations in order to help you achieve your desired result.

We believe that patients, their desires, and anatomy are all unique. Dr. Cabbabe believes that the key to a successful surgery is proper planning and discussion with the patient about their goals. Therefore, Dr. Cabbabe evaluates each patient and creates a customized surgical plan for all of his patients to meet their expectations.
