My medical team and I take immense pride in the work that we do for our patients. It has been incredibly gratifying through the years to meet so many wonderful patients and help them achieve the aesthetic enhancements they need to feel better about themselves and how they look. This level of dedication to patient care is a big reason why we’ve earned our reputation as one of the premiere plastic surgery practices in the metro Atlanta area. On this note, I wanted to announce that I am honored to have been named a Top Doctor in Atlanta in the field of Plastic Surgery by Castle Connolly once again for 2024.
Castle Connolly is an independent, physician-led group who identifies and highlights the best healthcare providers around the country in a wide array of fields. This includes plastic surgery and over 50 other general medicine and specialty areas. The vetting process uses a number of relevant criteria such as board-certification, reputation, peer recommendation, contributions to their field, and experience to determine the most exceptional physicians. Once the peer-selected nomination process has concluded, the top 7% in each category are selected as Top Doctors in their respective cities. Castle Connolly then brings this information to Modern Luxury Media who presents it to the consumer.
This is now the eighth consecutive year that I have been recognized as one of the top plastic surgeons in Atlanta, but I do not take the honor for granted. I do want to take a moment to thank the selection committee at Castle Connolly, as well as all of my colleagues in the plastic surgery community. I also want to thank my one-of-a-kind medical team for helping to make all of this possible, as well as our kind patients for all of their trust and support through the years.
Whether a patient has been visiting us for years, or if it is their first time in our office. Whether they are interested in undergoing my signature Band Aid Facelift, a mommy makeover surgery or another one of our minimally invasive Band Aid procedure, my team and I always do our best to uphold the Top Doctor status and do everything in our power to make every appointment in our office the best possible experience for our patients. And it’s certainly rewarding to know that we met that mark for another year.
Receiving recognition like this from my fellow plastic surgeons certainly means a lot, and I look forward to another fantastic year of serving my patients with the caliber of patient care and plastic surgery results that they’ve come to expect.

The new year is here and with it comes endless possibilities for change and renewal. Resolutions are always a major talking point this time of year, but making resolutions and keeping them are very different things. Today, I thought it would be fun to take a slightly different approach to a very common concept and discuss how plastic surgery can be helpful for people trying to improve themselves at the start of 2024 and beyond.
Year in and year out, getting into better shape is the most commonly heard New Year’s resolution. This involves making healthier eating choices and committing to exercising regularly. However, sometimes these healthy habits may not be enough to truly achieve the changes that you are hoping for. Body contouring procedures like liposuction and tummy tuck surgery can be ideal to address stubborn patches of fat and loose, stretched skin that cannot be treated with a healthy lifestyle alone. Additionally, these procedures can often be incredibly helpful as a way to put the finishing touches on a person’s weight loss journey.
The start of the new year is often thought of as a time of rebirth and renewal. And turning back the clock and fighting off common signs of facial aging can often be a fantastic way to unleash the new you. Whether it’s a facelift, eyelid surgery, lip augmentation, or another revitalizing facial procedure, the results achieved can be legitimately life-changing in all the best ways.
One thing to keep in mind this time of year is that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel to make an extremely positive impact on your appearance. I offer a full selection of minimally invasive Band Aid plastic surgery procedures intended to help patients with more modest aesthetic goals. This includes a wide range of procedures for the face and body, as well as Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing for anyone looking to improve the quality of their complexion. In addition to achieving more subtle results, my Band Aid procedures are performed in my office using gentle numbing, which saves on additional operating room and anesthesia fees not needed.
This is always a wonderful time of year and my hope is that my patients are able to turn their self-reflection and best intentions into meaningful positive change this year and beyond.

Welcome to part two of our blog series on popular plastic surgery procedures for patients of all ages. As I discussed in part one, there isn’t any specific age range for people who can benefit from undergoing cosmetic surgery. As long as the patient is in good health and a good candidate for their respective procedure, plastic surgery can be incredibly helpful and rewarding for patients of all ages. Today, I will go into more detail on how plastic surgery can be helpful for patients who are 50 and older, and more specifically, which cosmetic procedures can be most beneficial for these patients.
Unlike patients in their 30’s and 40’s who may be preemptively trying to fight off common signs of aging before they occur, plastic surgery for patients in their 50’s may require a more detailed approach. One consistent problem area that I see with patients in this age range is the cheeks beginning to lose their plumpness, the skin beginning to get looser and more wrinkles developing in the lower portion of the face. For people in their 50’s who have started to see the early signs of sagging skin and lax facial tissue, my signature Band Aid Mini Facelift can provide immense relief. This minimally invasive alternative to traditional facelift surgery is customized to each patient’s needs, and is performed in my office using gentle numbing rather than general anesthesia. The results are natural, outstanding and the post-surgery recovery is often incredibly simple.
Plastic surgery is more common than ever for people who are in their 60’s. Unsurprisingly, patients in this age bracket put more emphasis on facial rejuvenation than body contouring. I often end up discussing neck lift surgery with these patients, as an effective means for improving the appearance of lax skin and muscle of the neck (often referred to as a waddle or jowls). Undergoing a neck lift can also enhance the results of other facial procedures, like eyelid surgery or a facelift, to provide even more comprehensive results for patients with considerable facial aging. Eyelid surgery to help refresh the appearance of the areas around the eyes is also very in-demand for patients in this age range.
My personal philosophy is that age is just a number and the “right” cosmetic procedure is the one that will most help my patient achieve their aesthetic goals and feel better about how they look.

Plastic surgery is more in-demand than ever in the US, and this is the truth for patients of all ages. Although plastic surgery is still most common among people in their 40’s and 50’s, we are long past the days when these groups accounted for the overwhelming majority of cosmetic procedures. Today, I wanted to illustrate this new reality by discussing some of the procedures that I perform most commonly for patients in specific age brackets – beginning with the younger groups.
Cosmetic maintenance and anti-aging are major trends for patients in their 20’s. The key for these patients is preemptively fighting off common signs of aging before they occur or become overly prominent. I perform a Band Aid Lip Augmentation using facial fillers to help younger patients address thin or aging lips that have lost volume. This is a subtle, minimally invasive procedure that requires very little recovery time. I also perform Botox® and Dysport® injections to help minimize the threat of wrinkles before they occur. Breast augmentation surgery is also consistently popular with patients in their 20’s who are not satisfied with the size/volume of their natural breast contour.
Body contouring is bigger among patients in their 30’s. Especially liposuction, which is able to help patients remove patches of unwanted fat from areas all over the body, and tummy tuck which can be incredibly helpful for removing loose or stretched skin (and repairing damaged muscles) from the abdominal area. The tummy tuck is very popular with women in their 30’s who want to re-attain their pre-baby body after pregnancy and childbirth. I also perform minimally invasive options like my Band Aid Tummy Tuck and Band Aid Liposuction.
In the 40’s is when many people, both men and women, begin to really notice common signs of facial aging. This includes light wrinkles, fine lines, early signs of lost volume and sagging skin, and naturally-occuring other issues that can make a person look older than they are. In addition to the most common facial plastic surgery procedures like eyelid surgery that are goto’s among many patients in their 40’s, I also wanted to mention my signature Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment. This treatment can help repair the surface of the skin, addressing sun damage, acne scarring, age spots, and more while promoting a smooth and healthy complexion.
Stay tuned for part 2 of this blog, where I will go into more detail on cosmetic surgery procedures for patients aged 50 and older. No matter your age, if you think that you might be a good candidate for a certain cosmetic procedure, do not hesitate to look into your options. For more information, contact me, Dr. John L. LeRoy, to schedule a plastic surgery consultation today. Don’t forget to follow along with me on Facebook for additional tips, practice news, and much more.
