Elite Credentials
Dr. Joseph T. Cruise is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. He is also a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, which is limited to cosmetic surgeons specializing in aesthetic surgery. In addition, Dr. Cruise has joined the Orange County Society of Plastic Surgeons, an esteemed local group dedicated to safety, excellence, and integrity in cosmetic surgeries such as breast augmentation.
Many High Quality Before and After Pictures
Breast augmentation before and after pictures prove the success Dr. Cruise has with his patients. No matter what a patient is looking for in her surgery, Dr. Cruise can customize his trademark close cleavage, upper or lower breast fullness, and proper proportion for height into the overall look the patient wants to achieve from her breast augmentation. The before and after pictures show Dr. Cruise’s attention to detail and ability to finely tailor the augmentation results to meet his patient’s preferences.
The Difference of Complete Sub-Muscular Coverage
To provide the best, longest-lasting results for his Orange County breast augmentation patients, Dr. Cruise performs his surgery with a technique of inserting the breast implants with complete breast muscle coverage. This means that instead of putting the implant under just the pectoralis major muscle, Dr. Cruise puts the implant under additional muscles as well.
This complete muscle coverage serves several important purposes, especially for Newport Beach breast augmentation patients who appreciate close cleavage. Over time, breast implants often shift to the sides as breast tissues weaken, but full muscle coverage allows for closer cleavage with a reduced risk of cleavage widening. These stronger muscles are less likely to allow the implants to shift, and they provide a thick buffer that effectively reduces or prevents the skin rippling effect that can occur with other types of breast augmentation.

Imperceptible scar
Women do not want scars that make their breasts look “operated on,” and as an experienced, skilled Orange County cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Cruise knows how to minimize scarring on his patients. He uses a funnel insertion device with silicone implants, which eases the effects of the surgery and decreases the size of the incision and of any potential scar.
As one of the best cosmetic surgeons in Newport Beach, Dr. Cruise puts meticulous detail into closing breast implant incisions, and his staff will provide you with a detailed explanation of the post-operative care you need for the following months. Simple taping of the incision sites combined with Dr. Cruise’s elite skill decreases the chances of scarring, leaving you with natural-looking, healthy breasts that you can enjoy for years to come.

Breast Augmentation Anesthesia

Dr. Joseph Cruise realizes that an important aspect of any surgery is the anesthesia and that many women are sensitive and suffer unpleasant effects from it. In order to offer patients the most comfortable plastic surgery experience possible, Dr. Cruise only works with Orange County Board Certified Anesthesiologists who are specialists in gentle, outpatient anesthesia.

Dr. Cruise and his staff work hard to ensure that patients experience minimal pain after their cosmetic surgery by using preventative pain control measures with local anesthetics so patients’ pain never becomes intense, even after the medication wears off. These extra steps to make the breast implant recovery process as easy as possible for patients are one of the many ways that Dr. Cruise has earned his reputation as one of the best cosmetic surgeons in the Newport Beach area.

Concierge Patient Service Meets Cutting Edge Technology
In order to give patients every advantage to enjoy outstanding breast augmentation results, Dr. Cruise has spent over 5 years developing his unique digital Cosmetic Surgery Friends (CSF) patient management software.
This program guides patients through the entire surgery process, helps them decide which implants are right, provides secure text message access to Dr. Cruise’s Orange County office, and so much more. As a CSF user, you will have exclusive access to personalized before and after pictures – before the surgery even begins, you will see what you can expect during the healing process, as well as learn massage and bra management techniques to ensure that you obtain the best breast augmentation result possible.
What Cosmetic Surgery Friends Provides Patients
The Look You Want
During your consultation with Dr. Cruise at the Newport Beach facility, the doctor will use your personal information to help you determine the look you want to achieve after your breast implants. This aspect of the CSF program allows you to see the different possibilities for your cosmetic surgery results, and lets you discuss with Dr. Cruise what you prefer for your own body.

Quick access to Dr. Cruise and staff
Some cosmetic surgery offices develop reputations for being less available to patients after their surgery, but Dr. Cruise and his staff believe that after your procedure is when you need them most. CSF provides all breast augmentation patients concierge customer service. In addition to offering patients Dr. Cruise’s personal phone number, the staff can also be reached through a secure text app. You can send pictures and express your concerns, knowing that you will be answered quickly and in a very convenient way.

Appointment Management and Social Support
Instead of a reminder card for your plastic surgery appointments, the CSF system provides patients with access to all their appointment information through their phone. A fun countdown to breast implant surgery day is accompanied by an easily accessible network of other Orange County breast augmentation patients who are having surgery around the same time. Patients love that they can communicate with other women, reassuring one another and helping each other out. To set themselves apart as one of the top plastic surgeon offices in the Newport Beach area, Dr. Cruise and his staff have worked hard to create a unique support system for patients and an easy and fun way to celebrate their exciting augmentations.
A Quick, Full Healing Process
The Cosmetic Surgery Friends (CSF) program is perhaps one of the most useful tools for patients recovering from breast implant surgery. The in-depth information about the healing process after breast augmentation allows patients to see examples of each stage of healing, including some images of the types of bruising and swelling that patients undergo. Dr. Cruise finds that when plastic surgery patients have access to the before and after pictures of surgical healing, they heal more quickly and fully because they know what to expect.
Help with Ongoing Small Concerns
As a fully customer oriented Orange County cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Cruise helps patients with all aspects of post-surgery care. On an ongoing basis, he produces videos that discuss the relevant breast implant issues that matter most to his patients, including things such as showing you how to manage asymmetrical breast implants, post-operative massage techniques, and post-operative bra management.
