Services
Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses aging signs by tightening skin and underlying tissues for a youthful appearance. This procedure targets sagging skin, deep creases, and loss of facial definition through strategically placed incisions. Patients benefit from natural-looking results that restore facial contours while maintaining expressive mobility. Ideal candidates include those with moderate to advanced facial aging seeking long-lasting improvement. The surgery typically requires 2-4 hours under general anesthesia with several weeks of recovery time.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty reshapes nasal structures to improve aesthetics and breathing function. The procedure addresses size proportions, dorsal humps, and structural asymmetries while enhancing airway functionality. Surgeons use open or closed techniques depending on complexity, with incisions hidden inside the nose or across the columella. Recovery involves 1-2 weeks of social downtime and full results visible after 6-12 months. Functional improvements often qualify for insurance coverage when medically indicated.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes localized fat deposits through small incisions using specialized cannulas. This procedure targets stubborn areas resistant to diet and exercise, including abdomen, thighs, and arms. Tumescent technique minimizes blood loss while power-assisted devices enhance precision. Results become visible within 3-6 months as swelling subsides. Patients must maintain stable weight post-procedure to preserve outcomes. The surgery typically requires 1-3 hours under general anesthesia.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation increases breast size and improves shape through implant placement. Silicone or saline implants are positioned beneath breast tissue or chest muscle using inframammary, periareolar, or axillary incisions. Customized sizing ensures proportionality with body frame while dual-plane technique enhances natural movement. Recovery involves 4-6 weeks of activity restrictions. Implants require periodic monitoring and eventual replacement due to normal wear over 10-15 year lifespan.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing
CO2 laser resurfacing improves skin texture by removing damaged outer layers. This treatment addresses fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation through controlled thermal injury. Fractional technology treats microscopic skin columns while preserving surrounding tissue for faster healing. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results, with recovery involving 5-7 days of peeling and redness. Sun protection remains critical post-treatment to maintain improvements.
