Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure performed to remove excess skin and/or fat from the eyelids. This procedure creates a more refreshed and youthful appearance and is an important component to improving the appearance of the eyes and face. It can be combined with other cosmetic procedures of the face, depending on a patient's particular needs and their consultation with one of our surgeons. The primary benefit of this procedure is a more youthful and refreshed appearance of the eyes.

A facelift is an outpatient surgery performed to rejuvenate the face. Facelift surgery is very popular, and one of the most sought after forms of cosmetic surgery in the world. Provided that they're in good health, women and men in their fifties and beyond can be a good candidate for a facelift. Certain medical conditions, like diabetes, heart disease, or lung disease can make you a poor candidate for elective invasive surgery.

Genioplasty is a surgical procedure performed to improve the shape and projection of the chin. This can be done with either the placement of a chin implant, or with repositioning of the bone of the chin. This can allow for an improved cosmesis of the jaw and face with improved overall facial aesthetics and harmony.

The effects of aging do not discriminate, and signs of aging continuously march across our face and body whether we want them to or not. This is especially true for the skin and tissue in and around the neck. Many of our patients request the neck lift to rejuvenate and restore a youthful appearance around the entire neck region by surgically tightening as well as removing excess skin and tissue.
