RHINOPLASTY

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure aimed at reshaping the nose. It can enhance both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the nose, correcting imperfections or breathing issues. As a highly customizable procedure, rhinoplasty can be tailored to each patient’s unique needs and desires.

FACELIFT

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to address signs of aging in the face and neck. It involves tightening the skin and underlying tissues to reduce wrinkles and sagging, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

EYELID SURGERY

Eye lid surgery, or blepharoplasty, focuses on rejuvenating the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle from the eyelids. This can diminish puffiness, drooping, and wrinkles around the eyes, ultimately creating a more refreshed and alert look.

BROWLIFT

A browlift, or forehead lift, is a procedure that lifts and tightens the forehead and eyebrow area. It helps reduce sagging and wrinkles in the forehead, resulting in a more youthful and energized appearance.

CHIN AUGMENTATION

Chin augmentation, often achieved with chin implants or fillers, enhances the profile by improving the projection and shape of the chin. It can bring balance and harmony to the facial features.

OTOPLASTY

Otoplasty, also known as ear surgery, is typically performed to correct prominent or misshapen ears. This procedure reshapes the ears, bringing them into better proportion with the face.

RECONSTRUCTION

Reconstructive surgery is a broader category encompassing various procedures, often performed to restore function or appearance after injury, illness, or congenital abnormalities. It may include breast reconstruction after mastectomy, skin grafts for burn victims, and complex facial reconstruction for trauma patients.
