Procedures
Facial procedures involve the alter of a patients face through the use of plastic surgery. These procedures are for revitalizing the face or changing the some of the undesirable features.
Facelift (Rhytidectomy)
Facelift is a procedure performed in order to reverse the effects of age, gravity, exposure to the sun, and daily stress by removing excess fat, tightening facial muscles, and readjusting the facial skin. A facelift is also an excellent procedure for those with excess skin hanging from the neck or jowls. A facelift may be done in combination with other facial procedures such as a forehead lift (brow lift), eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty), or a nose job (rhinoplasty.)
Facelift is a highly individualized procedure that your surgeon will tailor to your unique bone structure, skin texture, and underlying muscle tone. Facelifts do not improve skin texture, although they can be done in conjunction with procedures that do improve texture, such as laser or chemical skin peels.
Forehead Lift
A browlift, or forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that smoothes out the forehead, while raising the upper eyelids and reducing frown lines. The procedure is one of the least complicated and least painful of all cosmetic surgeries. A forehead lift erases many of the effects of aging, leaving you with a smoother, more youthful looking appearance.
Neck Lift
Intended for individuals with loose or sagging neck skin, wrinkles, and large jowls, neck lift is a relatively minor procedure that can have a profound effect on appearance.
Rhinoplasty
Surgery to reshape the nose is a common cosmetic procedure that can have profound results on a person’s appearance and self-confidence. Rhinoplasty can accomplish any number of changes, including size augmentation or reduction, a narrowing of the nostrils, changes in the bridge or tip of the nose, or an alteration to the angle of the nose and upper lip. Regardless of the specific purpose, surgery to reshape the nose creates a more contoured and shapely nose.
Eyelid Surgery
The area surrounding the eyes is one of the first to show the signs of aging. Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, corrects for sagging upper eyelids and for the bags that form just below the eyes. Eyelid surgery can wash away years of aging, giving your eyes a smoother and more youthful appearance.
Facial Implants
Facial features are an important and highly visible aspect of a person’s physical appearance. For those who want a more balanced face or stronger features, facial implants may be the answer. Implants placed in the chin, jaw, or cheek will create a more pronounced, contoured, and striking face.
Breast Enhancement involves the reshaping of the patient’s breast through the use of plastic surgery. The surgeon combines various procedures to alter the shape of the breast. The most common Procedures are breast augmentation, breast lift, reconstruction and breast reduction.
Breast Augmentation
Breast Augmentation is a surgical procedure used to increase the size and/or alter the shape of a woman’s breasts through the use of an artificial implant. Women may choose to have this operation either as a reconstructive technique following breast surgery, to balance different sized breasts, or to enhance the contours of the body. Whatever the specific purpose, women who undergo breast augmentation can expect larger, firmer, and more visually satisfying breasts.
Breast Lift
Over time, the natural aging process can cause a woman’s breasts to sag and lose their shape. A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure that reshapes and cosmetically alters a woman’s breasts. After the procedure, women can expect firmer, more shapely and youthful looking breasts.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is designed for women who experience medical problems due to uncomfortable breasts. Problems may include back and neck pain, skin irritation, skeletal deformities, and breathing problems. Although the procedure is typically used to alleviate medical problems, it can also help women who feel self-conscious about the size of their breasts.
Breast Reconstruction
For many women diagnosed with breast cancer, mastectomy, or breast removal, is an unfortunate and inescapable option. Women who have undergone this surgery can choose to have breast reconstruction. This procedure recreates the size and shape of the patient’s natural breast and can renew a woman’s sense of beauty and femininity.
Body contouring involves the reshaping of undesirable parts of the patient’s body through the use of plastic surgery. The surgeon combines various procedures to alter the shape of the body. The most common techniques used are liposuction and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck).
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that extracts surplus fat and tissue from the abdominal region. It is especially helpful for men who retain excess weight in their midsections and for women who have undergone multiple pregnancies. Following abdominoplasty, patients can expect a flatter, more contoured, and more visually satisfying stomach.
Liposuction
Inherited traits often prevent people from achieving their desired body shape. Even years of exercise may not yield significant or noticeable results in certain people. For many, the answer is liposuction, a surgical procedure which extracts fat from specific areas of the body. Following the procedure, patients can expect a slimmer, more shapely figure.
