Meet Dr. Heather Levites
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Raleigh NC
Dr. Heather Levites is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with a special interest in advanced cosmetic surgery. She earned her undergraduate degree at MIT after attending an arts high school in New York City. She earned her MD from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, and completed her plastic surgery training at Duke University.
While at Duke, Dr. Levites honed her surgical skills focusing on aesthetic surgery of the face, pediatric plastic surgery, hand surgery, craniofacial trauma reconstruction and oncologic reconstruction. She further bolstered her aesthetic surgery expertise under the guidance of Drs. Hunstad, Kortesis and Bharti in Charlotte, NC. She is the author of multiple peer reviewed publications, has given presentations at many national plastic surgery conferences, and helped launch “The Resident Review”, a podcast aimed at educating plastic surgery trainees around the world.
Dr. Levites grew up in New York City studying to be a dancer and fine artist, and still enjoys dance and art in her spare time. Her childhood experiences taught her the value of precision, poise, humility and respect. Like an artist, the human body has become her canvas, and the scalpel the brush. As a mom herself, Dr. Levites understands the value of restoring the body of a mother back to her previous form. She recognizes that each patient’s goals and desires are unique, and tailors her surgical plan to help her patients look and feel their best.

alloClae
alloClae is an injectable adipose-derived extracellular matrix that acts as a scaffold to support tissue and improve skin quality over time. Rather than simply filling, it helps stimulate your body's natural collagen production while restoring soft, subtle volume for smoother, more youthful-looking hands.

-
alloClae can be an excellent alternative for patients who do not have enough extra body fat for a traditional fat transfer procedure. Since no liposuction is required, slimmer patients can still achieve beautiful volumizing results without needing donor fat harvested from their own body.
-
Both alloClae and dermal fillers offer unique advantages. Many patients choose alloClae when they want results that may last longer than traditional fillers, which often require regular maintenance appointments to preserve volume.
-
Treatment needs vary based on each patient’s goals and how their body responds. However, many patients achieve their desired enhancement after a single treatment session.
-
alloClae adds volume while also encouraging the body’s natural collagen production. The injectable formula integrates smoothly with existing fat tissue, helping create a fuller and more natural appearance in treated areas.
-
To keep patients comfortable during treatment, local anesthesia is typically used to reduce discomfort throughout the procedure.
-
Results commonly last several years, although longevity can vary depending on factors such as metabolism, lifestyle habits, and changes in body weight.
-
Yes. alloClae is often combined with other aesthetic procedures to enhance overall rejuvenation and cosmetic results. Your provider can recommend the best treatment plan during your consultation.
