WELCOME To

Galardi | Bowen Plastic Surgery with Virginia Beach Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeons, Nicholas R. Galardi, MD and J. Byers Bowen, MD.

Virginia Beach Plastic Surgery

Conveniently located in the Virginia Beach area of Hampton Roads, our practice is focused on the art of cosmetic surgery, anti-aging and rejuvenation techniques, and a variety of plastic surgery procedures. With years of combined experience in the field of cosmetic and plastic surgery, our physicians and staff are here to help you look and feel your best at every stage of life. We specialize in facelifts, tummy tucks, breast augmentation procedures, Brazilian butt lifts, breast reconstruction, and liposuction for the abdomen, thighs, and arms.

A Fresh Start With Plastic Surgery

Significant sources of wear and tear are all around. These stressors can be hard to avoid. They make trimming and toning your body increasingly difficult, even with good diet and exercise habits. Common sources of wear and tear include:

Age
Childbirth
Sun exposure
Pollution
Family medical history
Gravity
Fluctuations in weight

Many of these factors are unavoidable, but the results can take a toll. Our team takes the time to understand your goals, challenges, and unique health history. This helps our plastic surgeons provide you with specific treatment recommendations optimized for your particular needs. For example, if you would like younger, tighter, more supple skin, minimally invasive Botox injections may be just the right solution. For excess fat and a sagging waistline, you may want to consider more substantial treatment, such as liposuction or a tummy tuck.

Let Us Help You Reach Your Ultimate Body Goals

The decision to undergo a restorative surgical procedure is a courageous step toward a new you. As you commit to your journey, you will want to consult with a team that shares your goals, understands any challenges you may have and will be with you every step of the journey. We urge you to consider an initial consultation with one of the board-certified cosmetic surgeons at our Virginia Beach clinic. They can help you more fully understand the range of procedures that may be ideal for you. But just as importantly, they will explain the therapeutic benefits of those procedures and how those benefits can help improve how you look and feel.

Improving Form And Function

Cosmetic surgery can have significant benefits for your overall health. A sagging chest line can lead to chronic pain and structural damage, especially in the shoulders, neck, and lower back. A breast lift or breast reduction may be ideal for providing your breasts or chest muscles the support and reshaping they need. Properly supported breasts or a rejuvenated chest wall can help mitigate pain- and posture-related pain or injury. Our surgeons work with a variety of patients and patient needs to find safe, effective, targeted solutions treatments for both aesthetic improvement, pain relief, and operational support.

These are just a few examples of the customized solutions our Virginia Beach surgeons could recommend to help you look—and feel—your best.

Dr. Galardi and Dr. Bowen Plastic Surgery Reviews

Our Happy Patients

I am so happy that I chose Dr. Galardi for my cosmetic procedure. After having twins, my body was in need of some adjustments that exercise alone couldn’t fix. During my consult, his staff was extremely kind and attentive. Dr. Galardi patiently listened to what I wanted and didn’t pressure me in any way. Through the process, they accommodated my schedule and valued my time. My results are amazing and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to undergo cosmetic surgery!

-Victoria F.

Dr. Bowen is truly an artist, and he genuinely cares for his patients. I went to him for a 360 Lower Body Lift after losing about 130 pounds, and he did not disappoint! He gave me the body I’ve always dreamed of having, and I will be going back to finish the top half in a few months. Other than being a master of his craft, he’s also the right balance of professional and personable. When I have a giant list of questions, he makes sure to answer all of them without making me feel like I’m wasting his time. I cannot say thank you enough to him, the nurses, and all of the staff at GBR.

-Hayli S.

Dr. Bowen was excellent from the beginning to the end of the process. He was patient and made sure I understood everything about the process/procedure. I am very pleased with the results, and would highly recommend Dr. Bowen.

-Toni B.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Bowen and his staff. First and foremost Dr. Bowen is an artist and a true master of his craft. But he’s also a people person, his bedside manner is incredible. From our initial consultation to all of my follow-up appointments, Dr. Bowen has taken the time to answer any and every question I’ve had and explained everything in full detail to me and my husband. They truly go above and beyond at this office. I have not once felt rushed so he can hop into his next appointment and I had many concerns/fears behind getting a plastic surgery procedure done and he and his staff made me feel so at ease. I am just forever thankful my friend referred me to GBR and Dr. Bowen. If I ever choose to have any other procedure I will 100% be coming back here.

-Stephanie H.

So I needed to write a review for Dr. Bowen because he absolutely blew me away yesterday. I got Botox, lip filler, and a consult for neck lipo. He immediately put me at ease with his demeanor, and he explained in really thorough detail what his plan of attack would be. He did an amazing job on my lips- exactly what I wanted, and his technique is really impressive. I am very excited to schedule surgery with him and look forward to it especially after my experience today.

-Amanda T.

I could not have asked for a better experience! The results were perfect and natural, would definitely recommend!
