Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)
Rhinoplasty reshapes the bone, cartilage and soft tissue of the nose to improve its appearance and, where indicated, nasal breathing. It can refine the tip, straighten the bridge, reduce a hump, narrow the nostrils, correct asymmetry or address a deviated septum through either a closed (entirely internal) or open approach with a small columellar incision. It is one of the most technically demanding cosmetic operations and is tailored to each patient's anatomy, ethnicity and aesthetic goals.
Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
Blepharoplasty rejuvenates the eyes by removing or repositioning excess skin, muscle and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Upper blepharoplasty addresses hooded or heavy lids that may also limit peripheral vision, while lower blepharoplasty smooths eye bags, dark hollows and fine lines. The procedure can be cosmetic, functional or both, and is often combined with procedures such as a brow lift, midface lift or skin resurfacing for a fully refreshed result.
Deep Plane Facelift (Rhytidectomy)
A deep plane facelift is an advanced facial rejuvenation technique that releases the retaining ligaments beneath the SMAS layer and lifts skin, fat and muscle as one cohesive unit. Unlike traditional facelifts, it repositions the midface, jowls and neck together in a more natural vertical vector, avoiding a 'pulled' look and producing longer-lasting results. It addresses jowling, nasolabial folds, midface descent and neck laxity, usually with incisions hidden around the ear and hairline.
Brow Lift (Forehead Lift)
A brow lift elevates the eyebrows, smooths horizontal forehead lines and softens frown lines by repositioning the brow and forehead tissues. It can be performed endoscopically through small hidden incisions behind the hairline, via a hairline or coronal incision, or as a direct brow lift for selected patients. The procedure restores a more youthful, alert expression and is often combined with upper blepharoplasty or a facelift. A temporal or temple lift elevates the outer half of the eyebrow, softens crow's feet and improves the upper cheek area through small incisions hidden in the hair of the temple. It is more targeted than a full brow lift and is ideal for patients whose concerns are limited to the lateral brow and temple.
Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty)
A neck lift restores a defined, youthful jawline by tightening loose skin, repairing the separation of the platysma muscle bands and removing excess fat under the chin and along the neck. Typical components include a small incision under the chin to plicate the platysma, liposuction of the submental region and incisions around the ears to redrape the skin. It can be performed as a standalone operation but combined with a facelift for comprehensive lower face and neck rejuvenation.
Otoplasty (Ear Reshaping)
Otoplasty corrects prominent, protruding or misshapen ears by reshaping the cartilage and, where needed, reducing the size of the ear or recreating absent cartilage folds. Incisions are placed discreetly behind the ear, and stitching or scoring techniques bring the ear into a more natural position. It is commonly performed in children from age five or six but is equally suitable for adults seeking correction.
Cheek Augmentation
Cheek augmentation restores volume and projection to the mid-face using silicone implants, autologous fat transfer or hyaluronic acid filler. Implants are placed through tiny hidden incisions inside the mouth and provide permanent, highly predictable contour. Fat grafting delivers softer volume and can address adjacent hollows simultaneously, while fillers offer a reversible, non-surgical option for those wishing to trial the look first.
Lip Augmentation / Reduction
Lip procedures adjust the size, shape and proportion of the upper and/or lower lip. Augmentation is most commonly performed with hyaluronic acid filler or autologous fat, while surgical options include a lip lift (shortening the philtrum to show more vermilion) and permanent lip implants. Lip reduction removes a strip of inner mucosa through a hidden intra-oral incision to refine disproportionately full lips and is often requested after previous over-filling.
Fat Transfer/Grafting
Facial fat transfer uses your own fat, gently liposuctioned from the abdomen, flanks or thighs, to restore volume to areas such as the cheeks, temples, tear troughs, jawline and lips. The purified fat is injected in tiny aliquots so it can establish a new blood supply; typically 30–70% survives long term and the remaining volume is considered permanent. It gives a soft, natural result and may also improve skin quality through regenerative stem-cell effects.
Chin Augmentation (Genioplasty)
Chin augmentation improves facial balance and profile by enhancing the projection, width or height of the chin. It can be performed with a silicone or porous implant placed through a small intra-oral or sub-mental incision, or as a sliding genioplasty in which the chin bone itself is repositioned. The procedure is particularly effective for a weak or recessed chin and is often combined with rhinoplasty or neck liposuction for comprehensive mid and lower-face harmony.
Jaw Reduction / Reshaping
Jaw reduction narrows a wide or square lower face either by shrinking the masseter muscles with botulinum toxin injections or by surgically reshaping the mandibular angle. Surgical reduction is performed through an intra-oral incision and shaves or splits the angle of the jaw bone to produce a softer, more oval contour, with no visible external scar. The non-surgical route provides a temporary trial lasting 4–6 months and is often used before committing to surgery.
