LOOK, LIVE, & FEEL YOUR BEST

Let’s face it—the world of aesthetic surgery may be your perfect solution, or not your cup of tea. But enhancing overall wellbeing is a universal desire as old as time. Dr. Landon Pryor, board-certified plastic surgeon, understands this inherently. He is the founder and CEO of PryorHealth, a multi-location, comprehensive medical aesthetics and wellness platform with a newly renovated practice on the North Shore.

When Dr. Pryor established his private practice in 2013, Plastic and Reconstructive surgery was at its core, but soon after, he recognized a distinct need for nonsurgical and wellness treatments to help patients look and feel their best, more holistically, complementing and providing alternatives to the outcomes that cannot be achieved by surgery alone.

“I realized that not everyone is a surgical candidate,” he shares, “and a lot of patients are interested in nonsurgical options for a lot of reasons: cost, scarring, downtime, preconceived notions about risks—all these variables go into making the decision. So, I made a deliberate effort early on in my practice to have an option available to anybody that would come through our doors.”

Addressing this gap head-on, Dr. Pryor armed himself with a team of experts to provide a comprehensive suite of wellness and aesthetic care. “My vision was to have this all-in-one center of excellence,” he says. Today, that center is an ecosystem of locations that offer the full spectrum of nonsurgical and surgical offerings, including chemical peels, injectables, hair restoration, CoolSculpting, IV treatments, and much more. By combining these treatments with the high-quality, safe surgery that Dr. Pryor is known for, he has unlocked remarkable new potential for patients.

“Combination treatments have delivered our patients their desired results,” says. Dr. Mohammed Asif, who leads the cutting-edge North Shore facility alongside Dr. Eric Anderson. Both physicians operate the North Shore office with the highest standards of excellence and safety—a critical factor Dr. Pryor seeks out in his team. “Some patient concerns require multi-faceted solutions,” says Dr. Anderson. “Not only is this convenient for the patient but it allows the provider to supplement surgical treatment with additional therapies that either prepare or maintain results.”

As the wellness space changes almost daily, this team is uniquely equipped to respond. Take medical weight loss, which has become increasingly popular nation-wide: “Patients who do want to pursue medical weight loss can feel confident that they’re being seen by a legitimate medical provider—we’re making recommendations based on their unique health history,” says Dr. Pryor. “Beyond that, we are part of their patient journey, so when patients do lose the weight, we have options for improving the skin laxity that invariably develops after weight loss through either nonsurgical skin-tightening, which has become increasingly popular, or, further along the spectrum, skin-tightening surgery. So, patients can come to us for weight loss, and we can continue to treat them along the way to minimize any appearance-related concerns.”

Regardless of the treatment chosen, patient quality of life comes first. Dr. Pryor says, “We care about more than just your outcome from an appearance-standpoint. We care about your health, we care about your wellbeing, and we care about how you feel.”
