Facelift (Rhytidectomy)

In time, gravity, sun exposure, and the stresses of daily life take their toll on our faces: deep creases appear beside the mouth, the jaw line slackens, and folds and fat deposits appear on the neck. Facelifts counteract these problems by removing fat and tightening skin and muscles, giving your face a fresher, youthful look. Incisions are made in inconspicuous places such as behind the hairline and in natural folds of the face and ears, and scars fade to near invisibility in time. After surgery, some patients appear 10-15 years younger.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

Eyelid lifts can rejuvenate puffy, sagging or tired-looking eyes by removing excess fat, skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. It may be performed for cosmetic reasons or to improve sight by lifting droopy eyelids out of the patient's field of vision. Blepharoplasty can be combined with BOTOX® treatments to raise the eyebrows or reduce the appearance of wrinkles, crow's feet or dark circles under the eyes.

The procedure is done under general anesthesia and lasts 45 minutes to two hours depending on how much work is done. Incisions are made along the eyelids in inconspicuous places (in the creases of the upper lids, and just below the lashes on the lower lids). The surgeon removes excess tissue through these incisions and then stitches them closed with fine sutures.

Forehead Lift (Browlift)

Browlifts, usually done as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia, can revitalize drooping eyebrows or lined foreheads, helping you to look less angry, sad or tired. Using minimally invasive (endoscopic) methods, the muscles above the eyes are altered to smooth lines and raise the eyebrows for a more youthful appearance. The one hour procedure can be combined with other operations such as an eyelid lift and facelifts to improve the look of the eyes and other areas of the face.

In a minimally invasive (endoscopic) browlift the surgeon makes three to five short incisions; then an endoscope -- a slim instrument with a camera on the end -- is placed in one incision while the surgeon works through the other incisions. The tiny scars are well hidden behind the hairline.

Chin Augmentation

Chin surgery is a surgical procedure to reshape the chin either by enhancement with an implant or fat or reduction surgery on the bone. Many times a plastic surgeon may recommend chin surgery to a patient having nose surgery in order to achieve facial proportion. The surgery is done under a general anesthetic and takes about one to two hours.

Ear Surgery (Otoplasty)

Ear surgery is typically performed to set prominent ears back closer to the head, or to reduce the size of large ears. Surgery may be helpful for “lop ear," "cupped ear" and "shell ear,” large or stretched earlobes, and lobes with large creases and wrinkles. Surgeons are also able to construct new ears for patients who are missing them due to
injury or other causes. The operation can be performed on children as young as four years of age when the ears are fully grown, in order to minimize teasing in school. The procedure lasts from two to three hours and may be performed in an outpatient surgery center under general anesthesia.

Micro-Fat Injections To Face

Micro-Fat injections is used as a natural filler to augment a person's lips, cheeks, or skin depressions or to help reduce wrinkles, skin depressions and scarring on the face. The treatment involves fat being removed from the patient's own body and then injected into specific areas of the face to achieve desired results. This one hour out-patient procedure is performed under general anesthesia. With proper technique, fat can be long lasting.

Rhinoplasty

One of the most common plastic surgery procedures, rhinoplasty is performed to reshape, reduce or augment a person’s nose, remove a hump, narrow nostril width, change the angle between the nose and the mouth, or to correct injury, birth defects, or other problems that affect breathing.

Rhinoplasty is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia and usually lasts one to two hours.
