RHINOPLASTY
Rhinoplasty is a type of cosmetic surgery that is used to improve the appearance of a person's nose, and is literally shaping, or resizing the nose. Rhinoplasty may be performed to change the size and/or shape of the nose, narrow the nostrils, and/or change the angle between the nose and lips. Rhinoplasty involves the resculpting of the bone and cartilage. Your surgeon can answer specific questions during your consultation.

RHYTIDECTOMY - FACE LIFT
Rhytidectomy is a surgical procedure that involves stretching and tightening of facial muscles and skin while also involving the removal of excess facial fat and wrinkles of the skin. This cosmetic surgery gives a more youthful, a smoother and firmer appearance. This procedure takes place on either the face, neck, or both. Your surgeon can answer specific questions during your consultation.

GENIOPLASTY/MENTOPLASTY
Genioplasty/Mentoplasty is a type of cosmetic surgery that is used to improve the appearance of a person's chin. This can take the form of chin height reduction or chin rounding by osteotomy, or chin augmentation using implants.

BLEPHAROPLASTY - EYELID SURGERY
Blepharoplasty is a procedure in which the physician surgically removes excess fat, muscle, and skin from both the upper and lower eyelids to redefine the shape of the eye. During the pre-surgical consultation, you and your surgeon will decide on the technique for your individual surgery.

FOREHEAD & BROW LIFT
Forehead lift is the surgical removal of excess fat and skin, as well as a tightening of the muscles in the forehead area. It can correct sagging brows or deep furrows between the eyes. It is often done in conjunction with a facelift in order to create a smoother facial appearance overall. This procedure is usually done between age forty and sixty-five, although it may be necessary at an earlier age. Your surgeon will examine your facial structure, the condition of your skin, and your hairline in order to decide the best technique.

FACIAL SCAR TREATMENT
A person considering facial scar revision must understand that there is no way to remove scars completely. The goal is to improve the appearance of the scar either by disguising it, relocating it, or minimizing its prominence. Skin color, age, and the type of scarring are all important factors that must be part of the discussion prior to surgery.
