Eyelid Lift
Eyelid surgery removes the excess fat and wrinkled, droopy skin of the upper eyelids. It also eliminates bags under the eyes and tightens the lower eyelid skin. Eyelid surgery helps to eliminate the appearance of being constantly tired, resulting in a more youthful and rested appearance.

Face Lift
The face lift procedure restores a more youthful contour to the face and neck. A face lift smooths loose skin, tightens underlying tissues and muscles, and removes excess fat. The results may be dramatic or subtle, depending on the patient's appearance before surgery and on the desired goals. Incisions are inside and behind the ears, so as to be hidden from view.

Forehead Lift
A forehead lift corrects the sagging or low position of the eyebrows. It also softens creases across the forehead and frown lines between the brows. The result is a more relaxed and refreshed appearance. Tiny incisions are hidden within the hair, and no scalp or hair is removed.

Skin Resurfacing
Laser or chemical skin resurfacing reverses the effect of aging, sun exposure, and hereditary and lifestyle factors that contribute to facial wrinkling and pigmentary changes of the skin. Skin resurfacing can smooth wrinkles, reduce brown spots, and improve overall texture and appearance of skin for a healthier and younger appearance.

Rhinoplasty (Nose Reshaping)
Rhinoplasty can reduce the nasal profile, change the angle between the nose and upper lip and reshape the nasal tip. The goal of rhinoplasty is a natural looking nose that "fits" with the rest of the face by enhancing the balance between the nose and other facial features. Incisions are usually made inside the nose, and therefore invisible.

Cheek Implants
Cheekbones may be built up by placing an implant over them. The resulting enhancement of the cheek "highlight" area can be subtle or dramatic, according to your desire, and the incisions are inside the mouth so there is no scar.

Chin Augmentation
Chin augmentation can strengthen the appearance of a receding chin by increasing its projection. Simultaneously, it can create better harmony between the nose and other facial features for a more balanced and attractive profile.

Lip Enlargement
Lips can be made larger and fuller by using lip tissue itself or by inserting implants or grafts. Either the upper or lower or both lips can be permanently enhanced.

Prominent Ear Correction
Ear surgery improves the shape and position of ears that are large in proportion to other features or protrude more than normal. It can be performed at any age, from 4 up, and recontours the ears to bring them into correct position. Incisions are on the back of the ears, and therefore inconspicuous.

Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation can improve breast size and shape, and give a more proportioned figure. Saline-filled implants are placed to make breasts fuller and enhance their shape, and make it easier to wear certain styles of clothing. Incision can be made high in the arm pit, in a skin crease, so that there is no scar on the chest.

Breast Lift
A breast lift will make breasts firmer and more uplifted. The position of the nipples is enhanced if they point downward. The result is a more youthful contour and appearance.

Breast Reduction
Breast reduction proportions breasts to the rest of the body, and can provide relief from physical symptoms such as back, neck, and shoulder pain and rashes beneath the breasts caused by the excessive weight of large breasts. Following breast reduction the size and weight of the breasts no longer interfere with physical activity, and clothes fit better with a wider choice of styles.


Liposuction
Liposuction reduces isolated pockets of fat that cause certain areas of the body to appear disproportionate. It permanently removes fatty deposits that create unflattering bulges, and it is the only way to eliminate localized collections of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. Tiny incisions are within natural creases or hidden in inconspicuous sites.

Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, enhances body contour by making the abdomen firmer and flatter. It benefits loose, flaccid abdominal skin and fat, and can tighten muscles that have been separated and weakened by pregnancy.
