We specialize exclusively in facial plastic surgery including the latest endoscopic, minimally invasive techniques. Procedures performed include rhinoplasty, otoplasty, brow lift, midface lift, facelift, facial fat transfer, neck lift, blepharoplasty, and chemical peels. We also offer a full range of non-surgical treatments including, Fraxel laser, BOTOX® , Radiesse®, Restylane®, Perlane®, Juvederm® and ArteFill®.
Our cosmetic surgery practice focuses exclusively on the face and is centered on two main areas; facial contouring and rejuvenation of the aging face. The facial contouring segment of our practice includes rhinoplasty, (cosmetic nasal surgery); otoplasty (ear contouring) and other facial contouring procedures such as chin augmentation, cheek augmentation and facial fat transfer. We are experts in primary and revision rhinoplasty with the later being approximately a third of our rhinoplasty practice. Please visit our rhinoplasty and facial contouring pages for more information and before and after photos.
The facial rejuvenation portion of our practice is based on the philosophy that facial aging occurs as a result of three fundamental changes: skin quality loss, gravitational insult and facial volume loss. Skin quality is improved through the use of topical medications, BOTOX®, collagen replacement (Restylane®, Perlane®, Juvederm®, Radiesse®, ArteFill®), and skin resurfacing such as chemical peeling or Fraxel laser. Reversal of gravitational insult is accomplished through lifting procedures such as brow lift, midface lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), facelift, and necklift. Many of our facial procedures are performed endoscopically and our facelift is performed with the most advanced techniques available including sub-muscular procedures and the use of tissue sealant (Tisseel®). The third and perhaps most important aspect of aging is facial volume loss. The loss of volume accentuates the aging process by giving the face a hollow, haggard look. Facial fat transfer is an exciting minimally invasive rejuvenation procedure which allows us to sculpt and restore the face to its natural youthful beauty. By addressing all three aspects of facial aging a natural, soft and substantial result that will last for years can be obtained.
