Hair, Hand, Legs, & Body
Aging causes sagging of the skin around the arms. With time, there is a decrease in the production of structural proteins like collagen and elastin, which provide elasticity and firmness to the skin. Additionally, significant weight loss may also cause drooping skin on the arms. Sometimes, even with exercise and weight loss pockets of excess stubborn fat remain on the upper arms.
BodyTite is a procedure based on RF thermal coagulation of subcutaneous tissue that may be followed by aspiration of the liquified fat. It’s a great solution for individuals who are looking to reduce fat without the saggy, wrinkly skin. It also helps improve skin laxity after weight loss or due to aging.
Breast augmentation provides women who are unhappy with the size or shape of their breasts with a way to enhance or improve their breasts. While a major aspect of breast augmentation is increasing the size of the breasts, the overall goal is to enhance the breasts in a way that complements the individual’s shape and curves.
If you want to get your breast implants removed, you’ll need a breast explant procedure. At The Spiegel Center, we provide safe and efficient breast explants to Boston patients and help them regain the natural state of their breasts.
If sagging has robbed your breasts of their attractive shape and appearance, it may be time to consider getting a breast lift. A breast lift offers a way to reverse the effects that aging, pregnancy, and changes in weight can have on the appearance of the breasts.
Gluteal implants can be surgically placed, and they’re similar to breast implants, but for the butt. It can work well, but there are risks. The Brazilian Butt Lift takes excess fat and moves it to the backside. This is a good solution, but only works for people who have a lot of fat but a flat or thin butt. Also, you have to avoid lying on your back or sitting for three weeks after the surgery – not easy.
There is no joy when it comes to addressing unwanted body hair. Most of the available methods are uncomfortable or painful, like shaving, plucking, and waxing. Laser reduction works well, but not for all hair types or colors. Lasers need contrast, so if you have light hair on light skin, or dark hair on dark skin it’s not going to work as well.
Our procedure eliminates stubborn fat safely and effectively, without surgery or downtime. This is fat freezing, but is not CoolSculpting™ Cryolipolysis, and we think our system is better. Our advanced fat reduction treatment uses controlled gentle heating then rapid cooling.
Our 810-Diode Laser has built in “contact cooling” to keep you comfortable, and a large spot size to get the job done well, and in less time.
Often, we’re removing unwanted hair, and the laser and electrolysis services we offer can keep you smooth and sleek. However, we do want full hair on top of our heads, and overly thinned eyebrows are undesirable. Hair restoration can also hide scars, fill in a beard, and replace hair you once removed (e.g. from the chest or genital areas).
There are so many wonderful treatments for the face, but what about the hands? Don’t worry! We can significantly improve the thin skin and mottled appearance of the back of your hands and arms with our unique hand laser. The treatment is quick, comfortable, and effective!
Do you have fullness of the neck or under your chin? Maybe liposuction is the answer. Neck fat is removed through a tiny hidden incision to achieve the beautiful neck contour you’ve always wanted. Sometimes, neck fat can be treated with just a series of small injections using a medication called Kybella®. Ask which option is right for you!

Scar repair and revision is an easy and quick way to improve an unsightly scar. Scar quality can vary depending on the injury and the type of healer you are but, in most cases, scar quality can be greatly improved with a simple procedure. A traditional scar revision procedure requires
Dr. Spiegel to cut away the old scar and create a cleaner, less noticeable new scar.
Our Q-Switched YAG/KTP Laser is the proven method for removing unwanted tattoos. This dual wavelength laser attacks a wide array of colors for best effect. Many tell us that this laser worked better than any other they’ve tried! Multiple treatments are typically needed.
It’s hard to have fun in the summertime if you’re feeling self-conscious about your thighs. Excess skin on the thighs, a lack of definition, and dimpling or contour irregularities can make you look out of shape and take away from your summer bod.
When you want to improve the look of your belly and diet and exercise aren’t the answer, the best solution may be to opt for an abdominoplasty. Also known as a tummy tuck, this procedure removes loose skin, stretch marks, and belly fat bringing you towards a toned and flat stomach.
