Our Featured Procedures
Breast Augmentation
Our plastic surgeon performs more breast augmentations than any other surgery. He has developed elite skill in this surgical specialty over more than 25 years of practice. James E. Murphy, MD can help you enhance the shape, size, and symmetry of your bust through this highly customizable procedure. You can also consider breast implants or a breast lift depending on your specific goals.
Liposuction
Our surgeon can eliminate stubborn fat from your arms, abdomen, thighs, and more with liposuction. This procedure helps you achieve a more contoured silhouette, expand your wardrobe options, and boost your confidence in your appearance. Liposuction is easily combined with other cosmetic surgeries for even more transformative results.
Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian butt lift can enhance your backside by redistributing fat collected during liposuction into the buttocks. Dr. James E. Murphy offers this procedure rather than buttock implants because it carries a much lower risk of side effects and offers far more natural-looking results. Brazilian butt lift surgery can give you a beautifully accentuated figure for years to come.
Tummy Tuck
Enjoy a slim, toned midsection with tummy tuck surgery–one of the most popular plastic surgeries available. Our surgeon can remove excess skin and fat and tighten abdominal muscles to help you achieve the figure you desire. Our Reno, NV, practice offers mini, traditional, and extended tummy tucks, all of which can be combined with liposuction to enhance your results.

You can choose from a wide variety of cosmetic surgeries, minimally invasive procedures, laser treatments, and spa services when you work with us.

We Make Cosmetic Enhancement Affordable With Our Flexible Financing Options
Reconstructive surgeries and other medically necessary procedures, like some breast reductions, are eligible for insurance coverage. In these cases, our team will gladly help you file a claim. While strictly cosmetic surgeries and other elective treatments are not eligible for coverage, that doesn't mean they have to break your budget. We're pleased to accept financing through CareCredit®, Sierra Pacific, PatientFi, and ALPHAEON® Credit so our patients can cover their costs in manageable monthly installments.
We also offer in-house financing plans that let you contribute to a special account until your surgery is pre-paid. Have questions? Feel free to contact us at any time.
