7 Most Popular Procedures & Treatments for Fort Worth Brides
Wedding season is quickly approaching in Fort Worth, and if you are engaged, you are likely exploring your options for achieving a confident glow on your special day. Here, we highlight the top surgical and non-surgical procedures and treatments that are particularly popular among the brides we see at Kirby Plastic Surgery & Kalos Medical Spa.
Surgical Procedures
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation involves placing medical-grade silicone- or saline-filled implants to increase breast size and improve fullness. Fat grafting of the breasts is also an option for some patients. For patients who have been thinking about breast enhancement, it is common to finally put a procedure date on the calendar to create curves that confidently fill out a wedding gown.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes excess fat deposits just about anywhere on the body, and it is ideal for contouring stubborn “problem areas” if you already live a healthy lifestyle and are happy with your weight. Liposuction can even complement breast augmentation by contouring the bra bulge area between the breasts and the underarms for a gorgeous, seamless look in strapless wedding gowns.
(Mini) Tummy Tuck
Hoping to achieve a flatter, more toned abdomen for your wedding day? A full or mini tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat, and the full tummy tuck also tightens stretched abdominal muscles for a more dramatic transformation. If you have a tummy bulge after pregnancy, weight loss, or the effects of age, Dr. Kirby can advise you on the ideal procedure plan to meet your goals.
At Kirby Plastic Surgery, we use Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols to minimize your recovery, and we see real results: our patients experience less nausea, and feel more alert, mobile, and comfortable after their procedures.
“I had very hard recoveries in the past…it took me weeks to get back to caring for my family. With Dr. Kirby, I had a wonderful recovery and was back to my activities surprisingly quickly. Don’t tell the doctor, but I was at my child’s sporting event the day after my surgery, and I felt great!”

Non-Surgical Treatments
Tox and Fillers
Botox®, Dysport®, and Daxxify™ are neuromodulators that reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, typically around the forehead and eyes. Dermal fillers add volume to areas like the lips and cheeks, or they can help to smooth out deeper lines and wrinkles (like deep nasolabial folds around the mouth and nose). These injectable treatments are quick with minimal downtime, making them perfect in the weeks to months leading up to the big day! If you are a first-timer, plan on treatment a few months before your wedding day.
VI Peel
The VI Peel is a physician-approved chemical peel designed to improve the tone, texture, and clarity of the skin. It is effective in treating sun damage, reducing pore size, softening lines and wrinkles, and stimulating collagen production for firmer skin. Set the stage for a bridal glow by booking your first VI Peel months before your wedding day!
Hydrafacial
This multi-step facial treatment cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin. It’s particularly popular among brides because it delivers immediate results with no downtime, making it perfect for achieving a radiant complexion before photoshoots or within several days of your wedding.
Laser Skin Treatments
Laser skin treatments address a variety of skin concerns, such as pigmentation, texture irregularities, and signs of aging. They work by targeting different layers of the skin to promote cell turnover and boost skin’s collagen production for more smooth and youthful skin. We advise brides to start a series of ResurFX treatments early (several months ahead) to leave the skin looking smoother, clearer, and more youthful for the wedding day.
