Services
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from upper or lower eyelids to restore a youthful appearance. This procedure addresses age-related sagging and puffiness while preserving natural eyelid function. Patients often combine it with ptosis repair or brow lifts for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Ptosis Repair
Ptosis repair corrects drooping upper eyelids by tightening the levator muscle. This restores peripheral vision and improves aesthetic symmetry. The procedure can be performed through hidden incisions, often combined with blepharoplasty for optimal functional and cosmetic outcomes.
Double Eyelid Surgery
This specialized procedure creates natural upper eyelid creases while maintaining ethnic anatomical characteristics. Surgeons address fat distribution and skin positioning to achieve balanced, aesthetically pleasing results that enhance facial harmony without compromising eyelid function.
Brow Lift
Brow lift procedures address sagging brows through endoscopic or direct incision techniques. These restore youthful brow positioning, reduce forehead wrinkles, and improve upper eyelid contour. Various approaches allow customized solutions for different degrees of brow ptosis.
Neurotoxin Injections
Botulinum toxin injections temporarily relax facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles. Common applications include frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead creases. Our specialists use precise dosing to achieve natural-looking rejuvenation while maintaining facial expressiveness.
