Rhinoplasty (Nose Reshaping): Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is a procedure that aims to enhance the appearance of the nose, improve facial harmony, and address breathing difficulties caused by structural issues.
Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery): Blepharoplasty involves the surgical modification of the eyelids to address droopy eyelids, remove excess skin or fat, and rejuvenate the area around the eyes.
Facelift (Rhytidectomy): A facelift is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the signs of aging by tightening facial skin, lifting sagging tissues, and smoothing wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
Brow Lift (Forehead Lift): A brow lift is a procedure that elevates the position of the eyebrows and smoothes forehead wrinkles, creating a more refreshed and alert appearance.
Otoplasty (Ear Reshaping): Otoplasty is a surgery to correct prominent or protruding ears, bringing them closer to the head and achieving a more balanced facial profile.
