Transformation isn’t theory here – it’s the origin story and the mission. As a young athlete, Dr. Jason Emer experienced a facial injury and emergency nose surgery that changed not only how he looked, but how he thought about medicine. That moment sparked a career devoted to purposeful aesthetics: using skill, science, and artistry to restore confidence. In practice, “cosmetic” means life change – he’s stood beside acne-scar patients moved to tears and revision liposuction patients finally recognizing themselves again. 

The approach is personal and long-term: listen first, map anatomy and goals, explain trade-offs, then stage plans that fit real lives and real schedules. Expect meticulous customization across skin, face, and body, with an emphasis on results that look natural in motion and age well over time. More than procedures, this is a relationship built on education, transparency, and steady progress – because when care is tailored and thoughtful, the outcome is bigger than a before-and-after photo: it’s the return of ease, optimism, and everyday confidence.

The Origin Story: An Accident that Sparked a Calling

A baseball to the face. A broken nose. An emergency surgery that changed how his face looked – and how he viewed medicine. That dramatic shift seeded a lifelong pursuit: transformation with purpose. If one intervention could have such a profound impact on self-confidence, what might be possible with a thoughtful, artistic, and evidence-based approach to aesthetics?

Philosophy: Transformation, Confidence, and Real Relationships

Aesthetic medicine isn’t vanity; it’s transformation. Dr. Emer has stood in the room as acne-scar patients cried with relief and as revision liposuction patients finally recognized themselves again. His goal is more than technical success—it’s confidence that ripples into dating, clothing, and daily ease. He favors partnership over distance: be the trusted friend-physician who celebrates wins, explains tradeoffs, and stages plans that fit real lives.

Reputation & Testimonial Voice

Patients and peers say, “You won’t find another doctor who does complex treatments like Dr. Emer.” The team calls him inventive, relentless– even “crazy” in the best way– which fans echo with near-devotional praise: “If he started a church, I’d be in the front row.” That energy stems from consistent, exacting outcomes and full-cycle care.

Practice Scope: Skin, Face & Body – Comprehensive and Integrated

Body surgeries: advanced lipo (including 360 lipo), transformational skin removal, skin tightening, and breast surgeries.

Derm & lasers: tailored care for acne scars, pigmentation, wrinkles; careful energy selection for diverse skin.

Anti-aging: maintenance programs that keep results natural and long-lasting. ”

Case Study – “Shaunie”: Tummy Tuck Revision that Restored Freedom

Slim, post-pregnancy, yet burdened by a high tummy-tuck scar, a small fat “pouch” above it, and an off-center belly button. The fix required precision: lower/relocate the scar when safe, deflate and smooth the pouch, re-balance the umbilicus as anatomy allows. Beyond technique, this is freedom – bikinis, belly dancing, youthful spontaneity – returned. Revision is a significant part of the practice because not all surgeries and laser procedures are performed well elsewhere.

“Down Under” Medicine: No Stigma, Same Standards

If it’s part of your body, it deserves expert care and dignity– vaginal, penile, and anal areas included. A signature service is male girth enhancement. Its origin was pragmatic and compassionate: during facial fat grafting for HIV patients, a patient asked whether some fat could be transferred to the penis. The logic tracked (autologous tissue, controlled technique), and the results built a robust program. Patients even joke about trends like fuller pubic hair– “the ’70s are back.” Humor aside, the approach stays clinical: normalize the conversation, tailor the plan, and prioritize safety.

Oncology & Scar-Healing Breakthrough: A Mohs Case that Changed Everything

A 20-something man with a “pimple” that proved to be basal cell carcinoma underwent Mohs surgery. Subclinical spread meant a larger-than-expected defect; reconstruction left an emotionally heavy scar. The question that followed drives much of today’s protocol: Why can’t we mature scars earlier? By combining fractional laser therapy and chemical peels, scar edges and texture were optimized in a relatively short timeframe – within approximately three months, the scar appeared nearly invisible. This pivot solidified a focus on accelerating healing and optimizing early scar formation.

Subtle Maintenance & the Heart-Shaped Look

True transformation is maintained, not just made. Many patients opt for Botox and fillers (such as for the cheeks and chin) to achieve a gentle, heart-shaped facial contour with balanced, natural-looking lips. The best compliment? When patients forget they had anything done, it’s often until strangers compliment them.

Culture & Confidence in a Media World

The Miranda Priestly comparison (high standards, exacting taste) isn’t about attitude; it’s about systems and outcomes. In a selfie-driven world, presentation is a powerful form of communication. Done properly, aesthetics is a confidence builder that affects careers, relationships, and everyday poise.
