- Neck LiftDuring your consultation, we will determine whether you are in good health and if a facelift is the best technique to treat your facial concerns.

At your consultation, we will also recommend a neck lift procedure if we feel it is suited for you.
- BlepharoplastyBlepharoplasty or eyelid surgery, can enhance your appearance and your self-confidence by removing the appearance of droopy or sagging eyelids. As people age the eyelid stretches, muscles weaken, and fat accumulates around the eyes, causing “bags”, or excess skin to become prominent. During your consultation, the doctor will assess which of the four eyelids (top and bottom for both eyes) require surgery.

Presently I prefer a device known as the “Red Head” manufactured by Miami Fat Supply.
