Dr. Steven Cyr

For nearly 20 years Dr. Cyr focused on spine surgery. As an orthopaedic surgeon and a Mayo Clinic–trained spine surgeon, he built a practice around complex conditions of the musculoskeletal system. That training is the basis of OrthoSculpting: fat is taken according to the anatomy under the skin, which an orthopaedic surgeon is specifically trained to see.

• Anatomically accurate mid- and high-definition liposculpture.
• Fellowship-trained in both orthopaedic surgery and cosmetic surgery.
• The plan uncovers the structure that is already there.
