Procedures

Face Lift (Rhytidectomy)

A face lift is designed to give you a fresh, new, more youthful look. It is a surgical procedure that is used to smooth the loose skin on your face and neck, and to reduce the most apparent signs of aging. These apparent signs of aging include creases beside the nose and mouth, a slacking jaw line, sagging jowls, and fat deposits around the neck. This procedure removes the excess fat and skin, tightens the underlying muscles and then lifts and redrapes the skin. Incisions are made in inconspicuous places such as behind the hairline and in natural folds of the face and ears.

Typical surgery time: 3 – 4 hours.
Anesthesia: General or local.
May be combined with: Neck lift, chin liposuction.

Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

An eyelid surgery is performed to enhance the appearance of puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes. As people age, the eyelid stretches, muscles weaken, and fat accumulates around the eyes which causes “bags” or excess skin to become prominent. The surgery can be performed for cosmetic reasons or to improve sight by lifting droopy eyelids out of the patients’ field of vision. During the procedure, excess fat and skin is removed and muscled can be tightened by making an incision where the natural crease should be for the upper lids and below the lash line (or inner aspect of the lid) for the lower lids.

Typical surgery time: under 1 hour.
Anesthesia: Local.
May be combined with: Face lift, brow lift, BOTOX® treatments.

Brow Lift/Forehead Lift

A brow lift can revitalize drooping or lined foreheads, restoring a more youthful appearance that helps you to look less angry, sad or tired. This procedure is performed by altering the muscles above the eyes to smooth the forehead, elevate the eyebrows and diminish frown lines. There are two techniques used to perform this surgery; traditional or minimally invasive (endoscopic).

Typical surgery time: 2 hours.
Anesthesia: General or local.
May be combined with: Eyelid surgery, face lift.

Nasal Surgery (Rhinoplasty)

Nasal surgery is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty can be performed for cosmetic reasons such as to reshape, reduce or augment a person’s nose, remove a hump, narrow nostril width, change the angle between the nose and mouth or shape the tip or bridge of the nose. It can also be performed to fix breathing problems, birth defects or to correct injury.

Typical surgery time: 2 – 3 hours.
Anesthesia: General or local.
May be combined with: Other facial procedures.
