Plastic Surgery in Arlington, TX

Some things in life are simply inevitable, like getting older. As we age, things begin to change in our lives. We learn to let things go and to smile more. We have more financial freedom to do things and see things that we've wanted to see and do for years. But on the flip side of the coin, our bodies begin to change, too. Breasts start to sag a little more than they did in years past. More fat starts to make itself known around your midsection, neck, arms, and stomach.

Wrinkles and fine lines start to become more pronounced. In the past, we were taught to just deal with the signs of aging. But in modern times, there are safe, innovative ways to recapture the incomparable feeling of youth. If you're getting more and more self-conscious about how you look, it could be time to work with a plastic surgeon in Arlington, TX, like Dr. Mark Bishara of Paragon Plastic Surgery.

A reputable plastic surgeon - like Dr. Mark Bishara - will take into account not only the physical aspects but also the mental and emotional well-being of their patients when determining if plastic surgery is suitable.

Now that you know a little more about our plastic surgery clinic and how we treat our amazing patients, let's take a closer look at a few of our most popular cosmetic procedures.

Body Contouring: Lifting Loose Skin After Substantial Weight Loss

The obesity epidemic in the United States and worldwide has prompted numerous programs aimed at reducing Body Mass Index (BMI) for individuals' well-being. However, substantial weight loss cannot disregard real-world physics. As a result of weight loss, bodily components such as skin and fat deposits undergo significant changes in tension and size, which may not adjust accordingly. Bariatric weight loss surgery has helped many people achieve their BMI goals and lead healthier lives, but it has also increased the need for body contouring following weight loss. If you made the choice to get healthy and lose weight but are left with unattractive and frustrating loose skin, it could be time to speak with a plastic surgeon in Arlington, TX.

The goal of body contouring is to remove excess skin for both cosmetic and functional reasons. Large hanging skin folds can be considered unappealing from an aesthetic standpoint, and frequent chafing between functional and excess skin can make daily activities uncomfortable, potentially leading to skin infections. Additionally, moisture trapped between loose skin folds can create an ideal environment for bacterial growth, posing hygiene issues for the patient.

While it's feasible to perform a full body lift in one session, most doctors prefer to divide body contouring surgeries into multiple sessions for the patient's safety and comfort. At Paragon Plastic Surgery, our body contouring procedures are split up into a few of the most common areas on which we operate, including:

Arm Lift

Breast Lift

Body Lift

Face Lift

Neck Lift

Thigh Lift

Before And After Plastic Surgery Arlington, TX

Breast lifts reshape your breasts and reposition your areolas by removing excess skin below the breasts and moving the nipples higher. The skin above your breasts is also adjusted to create a more youthful contour. This surgery can also be combined with breast augmentation to fill any volume loss, and the areolas can be resized if needed.

The arm lift procedure aims to achieve a more youthful appearance by removing excess fat and skin from your underarms. This is common in women but can also occur in men after significant weight loss. The incision is made beneath your arm and may extend from the elbow to the armpit, depending on the amount of skin that needs to be removed. Most patients are satisfied with the results and consider the trade-off of "skin for scars" worthwhile, especially when the scars are effectively concealed by your plastic surgeon in city, state.

A lower body lift includes a thigh lift, and a buttock lift to remove excess skin. The thigh lift is like an arm lift, with incisions made based on the location of excess skin. The buttock lift doesn't involve implants, but fat from other areas can be used to enhance the shape. Overall, the skin cutting and repositioning performed by Dr. Bishara is safe and provides welcome results after bariatric surgery or extreme weight loss.

A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that involves tightening your abdominal walls and removing excess skin to create a flatter abdomen. The surgery is typically performed under either local or general anesthesia. It begins with an incision along the bikini line and the removal of the belly button. After the abdominal wall is tightened, the excess skin is pulled down, and a new belly button is created. This procedure is moderately invasive, and it usually takes about two to three weeks before patients can resume exercising.

Breast Augmentation: Larger, Natural Feeling Breasts You'll Love

Breast augmentation is a highly sought-after cosmetic procedure in the U.S. and is among the top services performed by our plastic surgeon in Arlington, TX. It aims to provide women with small or unevenly sized breasts a fuller, firmer, and more proportionate look by inserting saline or silicone implants. Patients choose this procedure for various medical and aesthetic reasons, such as:

Balancing Breast Size
Compensation for Reduced Breast Mass Post-Pregnancy
Have a realistic Correcting Congenital Breast Defects

Under the expert care of our doctors, patients can achieve natural-looking and feeling breasts that are one or more cup sizes larger after the surgery.

Dr. Mark Bishra is a breast reconstruction surgeon whose expertise includes:

Breast Lifts
Breast Implants
Have a realistic And Other Breast Enhancements

Customized Breast Lifts Tailored to Your Needs

Having performed hundreds of breast augmentation surgeries, Dr. Bishara and his team know that every woman is different. Your neighbor down the street won't have the same needs and desires with their breast lifts as you. That's why we're committed to pre-operative consultations to understand what you'd like to gain from your breast augmentation surgery and determine the most suitable implant type and placement. This ensures that you and every patient who walks through our doors receive personalized, professional treatment.

Face Lifts and Implants: Reclaiming a More Youthful "You"

In today's day and age, aesthetic impressions matter more than at any other time in history. Whether we're meeting a new person or reconvening with an old friend, one of the first places we look is at their face. When a person has sunken cheeks, deep wrinkles, and drooping foreheads, we tend to think they're angry or disheveled. If you're worried about unattractive features on your face that affect your daily life, you're not alone. Millions of men and women around the U.S. aren't happy with features like thin lips and frown lines.

By working with a plastic surgeon in city, state, like Dr. Bishara at Paragon Plastic Surgery, you can reclaim a more youthful you with the safe and effective procedures below.

Brow and Eyelid lifts can rejuvenate sagging or wrinkled foreheads, giving you a more relaxed and youthful appearance. By using either traditional or minimally invasive techniques, the muscles above the eyes are adjusted to smooth out lines and lift the eyebrows. This procedure is often combined with others to enhance the overall look of your eyes.

Full cheeks play a significant role in how we perceive a person's face, whether we realize it or not. Cheek implants can have a big impact on your self-confidence, especially if your cheeks have thinned due to aging, illness, or other reasons. The sizes and shapes of the implants we use are customized to fit your desired appearance, giving you a personalized experience and look.

Reshaping your chin with implants can help create a more balanced appearance with your other facial features. Chin enhancement is commonly suggested for individuals getting rhinoplasty to achieve better facial harmony, as the size of the chin can either accentuate or diminish the apparent size of the nose and vice versa.

A facelift can reverse the effects of aging, gravity, sun exposure, and stress by eliminating fat, tightening skin and muscles, and giving your face a rejuvenated, more youthful appearance. Many of our patients report looking 10 to 15 years younger after undergoing a facelift performed by a plastic surgeon in city, state from Paragon Plastic Surgery.

A neck lift is a surgical procedure that can smooth and tighten the skin on your neck to provide a more toned and youthful appearance. This procedure offers a drastic improvement to the appearance of your neck, and subtle changes to your overall appearance.

Hair Restoration: An Innovative Solution for Baldness and Thinning Hair

Hair loss can be caused by side effects from medication, aging, genetics, or scalp injuries with scarring. It affects both men and women of all ages, leading to pattern baldness, patchy spots, or thinning hair. Many people find this change in their appearance distressing and are frustrated by the lack of effective treatments. Thankfully, there are several minimally invasive and affordable treatments available to promote hair growth or restore hair loss. These treatments can help patients regain confidence as they enjoy thick, full, and beautiful hair once again.

Dr. Mark Bishara is proud to offer a wide range of comprehensive hair restoration procedures, including the following:

Laser Hair Therapy

The Xtrallux Extreme RX Hair Regrowth Laser Cap utilizes a unique form of laser light proven to enhance circulation and trigger cellular metabolism in and around the scalp's hair follicles. Unlike the lasers employed for cosmetic skin procedures and tattoo removal, the Xtrallux doesn't cause any damage to the skin cells. Instead, it employs low-level, cool-to-the-touch lasers for hair restoration.

Non-Surgical Hair Restoration with PRP

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Therapy involves extracting a small amount of your blood and separating the platelets and plasma. After being combined in a centrifuge, the mix is then injected just under your scalp in the areas where hair growth is desired. Researchers suggest that the hormones and growth factors in platelet-rich plasma play a crucial role in stimulating renewed hair growth and transforming thin hair into thicker, fuller strands.

Surgical Treatments for Hair Growth

Many men and women choose non-surgical hair restoration because it's minimally invasive. However, if you have severe hair loss or you have tried other procedures with no luck, it might be time to see a plastic surgeon in Arlington, TX. Surgical hair restoration procedures are specifically designed to deliver effective results with minimal downtime and without causing damage to surrounding hair follicles. Dr. Bishara from Paragon Plastic Surgery possesses extensive experience in performing these advanced procedures and will assist you in determining the most suitable approach for achieving the best possible results.

I absolutely love Dr Bishara & his staff I travel 4 hours just because he is the best in the business He has magic hands when it comes to Botox & Fillers etc. I’m looking forward to doing a facelift with him in the near future. My last visit was for the Morpheus8 procedure with the Ipixil (face & neck) & I was originally supposed to be under anesthesia but could not do anesthesia due to a recent medical surgery. Before I walked thru the door I was very nervous abt this however Melanie & Marisol reassured me over the phone that I will be just fine Once I met Britt who was doing the actual procedure I was again at ease Everything went well Much better than I had expected The pain was tolerable (they have top of the line numbing cream) I am extremely happy with the results Britt did a excellent job I cannot thank them enough!!! 5 Stars across the board They are professional & compassionate Very beautiful & clean office at all times They are honest which is extremely important in today’s world of plastic surgery. Dr Bishara is also affiliated with Methodist hospital which is another 5 stars in my book. I recommend Paragon Dr Bishara & his staff to EVERYONE!!!! I would drive 10 hours if I had to!!! Ive never been disappointed in the 10 plus years I’ve been seeing him!!!!

breast reduction for Roxanne Buchanan

I had abdominal liposuction a year ago w/Dr. Bishara. He told me I had a hernia which I didn’t know about, and that he could remove/fix it with a tummy tuck. He cautioned that liposuction likely wouldn’t give me the full results I was wanting, but I was initially nervous about tummy tuck surgery. A year later, October 20, I had the tummy tuck and hernia removal. I’m still in the process of recovering, but it was a lot easier recovery than I expected. Dr. Bishara is AMAZING! No matter the concern, he’ll make time to see me, and he’s incredibly easy to talk to. He takes the time to fully explain the procedure, and answer any questions I have. I visited several plastic surgeons before doing my first procedure, the liposuction, and I will NEVER see any other surgeon. I look forward to my appointments and definitely have more I plan on doing. Additionally his staff is FANTASTIC! They’re so friendly, and make a sometimes awkward situation (naked photos, etc..????) as easy as possible. If you’re considering plastic surgery, I could not recommend Dr. Bishara highly enough, well above 5 stars!

She was so sweet and made me feel at ease. I’m new to Botox and Dr. Bishara was knowledgeable and informative at my appointment. He listened to my concerns and actually was so caring. I am so very happy I chose this office. You will not be disappointed. The staff there are rare to find. Thank you all for such a great experience!

★★★★★

The Paragon Med Spa is a very clean, professional and personal team of spa service personnel. They always make me feel welcomed, remembered and comfortable.

Depending on your needs, surgical hair growth options from Paragon may be the best course of action. Common surgical hair restoration procedures include the following:

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a minimally invasive hair restoration procedure that moves the patient's own hair - graft by graft - to maximize the likelihood of regrowth after it has been transplanted in the balding area.

Eyebrow restoration involves inserting single-hair micro-grafts into the eyebrows using a needle at a specific angle, creating a natural appearance customized to fit the patient's goals.

Dr. Bishara's FUT method of hair restoration surgery involves transplanting natural, individual follicular units for the most natural results. The procedure involves trimming the hair short, numbing the scalp, removing follicles, and placing them in the recipient area. Sutures are placed in the donor area, which are usually hidden by the patient's hair. Patients can resume normal hair care after a week, and hair growth typically begins about three months after the procedure.

Temporal Peaks Restoration restores a natural and youthful hairline by recreating the temporal peaks, the areas at the front of the head that are common sites of hair loss. This procedure helps frame the face and define a person's appearance by transplanting hair to recreate a natural hairline.

From the first time you walk into Paragon Plastic Surgery, you'll know that you are in a place that cares about results. Our plastic surgery center has become one of the most sought-after clinics for both surgical and non-surgical procedures to make you look and feel like you were years younger.

Arlington mayor seeks city's inclusion in temporary World Cup name for AT&T Stadium

The 2026 World Cup is expected to be the grandest spotlight Dallas–Fort Worth has ever seen, especially for the city hosting all nine soccer matches. Arlington, Texas.“There is no greater stage than this,” said Arlington Mayor Jim Ross. “Everybody's going to be watching this, and they deserve to know where the stadium is and it's in Arlington, Texas.”Ross is, after all, the city’s top administrator, generally elected to be the face of the city while promoting and attracting new business....

The 2026 World Cup is expected to be the grandest spotlight Dallas–Fort Worth has ever seen, especially for the city hosting all nine soccer matches. Arlington, Texas.

“There is no greater stage than this,” said Arlington Mayor Jim Ross. “Everybody's going to be watching this, and they deserve to know where the stadium is and it's in Arlington, Texas.”

Ross is, after all, the city’s top administrator, generally elected to be the face of the city while promoting and attracting new business.

He makes no qualms over FIFA directing host stadiums to temporarily change their official names for the tournament, mostly over branding policies, according to a press release.

Get top local stories in DFW delivered to you every morning. >Sign up for NBC DFW's News Headlines newsletter.

The commercial aspect associated with each stadium selected, AT&T, in this case, is removed by FIFA as is policy.

What he isn’t thrilled about is the governing body directing arenas to be named for whichever major city they are ‘in or near,’ and the decision to temporarily name AT&T Stadium, ‘Dallas Stadium’ for the 2026 World Cup.

The issue resurfaced during a city council meeting which included an update from Monica Paul, the executive director of the Dallas Sports Commission leading the massive effort locally and who could have a say in the stadium’s name.

“Calling that stadium by some other city's name is really going to go hard with over 400,000 residents in Arlington,” said Ross during the meeting.

While presenting a detailed update on local World Cup plans, including discussing the tournament’s ‘footprint,’ Paul addressed the issue over the stadium's name by telling the council. “I know that it says Dallas Stadium, we are working very closely with FIFA to make that modification to Dallas Arlington Stadium, or Arlington Dallas.”

A light-hearted back and forth between Paul and Ross ensued. The mayor determined to be included in the stadium's temporary new name, leading Paul to reassure him, that her team is “working to make that modification, mayor."

"We're happy to share it," said Ross to Paul during the meeting. "We're happy to call it the Arlington Dallas Stadium."

The mayor emphasized his appreciation of Paul’s work to lure the World Cup to North Texas during the meeting.

“Give us your best effort on this,” he told her. “I know you're not the decision maker, but I trust that you are an influential individual on this.”

Nearly every corner of DFW is set to benefit from the 2026 World Cup where Dallas has secured nine soccer matches taking place between June and July of 2026, more than any other host city.

The region has secured five team base camps to be scattered across several cities which will serve as the temporary home for teams throughout the tournament.

This and the massive influx of fans and media is expected to help generate approximately $2 billion dollars in the region’s economy, according to Paul.

In an interview Friday afternoon about the issue, Ross told NBC 5, “This isn’t a dig at Dallas. I love our neighbors over to the east.”

It’s also not about money, he said.

Ross acknowledged the city of Arlington has little say in the matter, but hopes others rally around the city that’s home to multiple professional teams.

“You go to Frisco and see what they've done with the PGA, with The Star up there, they deserve every bit of recognition that they get there,” he said. “You go to Fort Worth and see what they're doing with the Stockyards and Dickie’s Arena, they deserve every bit of recognition there. Go to Dallas and see what they're doing with AAC and everything else going on over there, they deserve that recognition, but we deserve the recognition for what's going on here as well.”

Paul told the mayor and council she expects to have an update in early 2025 on efforts to have FIFA ‘modify’ the stadium’s name for the tournament.

City of Arlington Unveils First Ability-Inclusive Playground at Meadowbrook Park

Arlington families gathered on Saturday, Nov. 16 to celebrate the grand opening of the City's new ability-inclusive playground during the Meadowbrook Centennial Celebration at Meadowbrook Park. The free event featured carnival rides, face painting, live performances, and the highly anticipated ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new playground, which was made possible by a generous $500,000 grant from the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation.The playground, designed to accommodate children of all abilities, marks a major milestone in Arlington's...

The playground, designed to accommodate children of all abilities, marks a major milestone in Arlington's ongoing efforts to create accessible, inclusive spaces for its residents.

“This is a totally inclusive playground, and that’s our objective here in Arlington to make this a home for everybody,” said Arlington Mayor Jim Ross. “This park really helps move us in the right direction.”

The playground features a range of accessible play elements, including smooth, wheelchair-friendly surfaces, accessible musical instruments, a merry-go-round that accommodates wheelchairs, and climbing structures designed for children with mobility challenges. Other unique features include a sensory area where children can engage with bells, rings, and other tactile elements, offering sensory-rich experiences for all.

“I think it’s amazing. It’s very, very huge. There are a lot of activities to do. I like how big it is for different age groups. There’s climbing, and there’s even something for special needs children. I like that they have that option for them.” Share Lyly Hguyen, a mother attending the event with her child.

The new inclusive playground features a range of accessible play elements designed to serve children of all abilities. Key features include:

"We want to convey that we are sincere in our commitment to provide equal access to all people in Arlington," Jaquay said. "This playground is just one step toward a more inclusive future for our city."

The Meadowbrook Centennial Celebration also featured the unveiling of the new sculpture in the Meadowbrook Park sculpture garden. The bronze deer is called "A Change in Direction" by artist Darrell Davis and was provided by the nonprofit Arlington Sculpture Garden Foundation. This is the eighth sculpture at the sculpture garden, and it represents forging a new path. Click here to read about “A Change in Direction.”

Looking ahead, the Parks and Recreation team is already preparing for a busy 2025, including the MLK Day of Service Festival on Jan. 20 and the 23rd Annual Sweetheart Dance on Feb. 15 at the Bob Duncan Center. Both events will offer family-friendly activities, live entertainment, and an opportunity to celebrate the community spirit of Arlington.
