Procedures and techniques named

Facelift: lifts tissues to natural upright positionFacelift surgery is one of the most comprehensive ways to reverse aging and restore a more youthful version of yourself. It works by lifting the tissues of the face into their natural upright position while also getting rid of stretched, excess skin.
Facelift: often combined with eyelid surgery, neck liftDr. Gilpin can help you understand how to personalize your facelift surgery with other facial procedures. Nashville patients often combine facelift procedures with options like eyelid surgery, brow lift , neck lift , or submental liposuction to get rid of a double chin
Neck lift: tightens vertical bands, removes fatNeck lift surgery tightens the skin and vertical bands on the neck as well as skin that sags along the jawline. A neck lift works to remove excess fat, which helps to tighten the underlying neck muscles.
Neck lift: incisions under chin, ears, platysmaplastyDuring a neck lift procedure, small incisions are made under the chin and then behind the ears. The platysma muscle is tightened (platysmaplasty), excess fat gets removed, and the facial tissues are repositioned before excess skin is carefully trimmed away.
Blepharoplasty: upper brightens eyes, restores visionUpper blepharoplasty can achieve a variety of goals, including brightening tired-looking eyes, achieving a more youthful look, and restoring impaired vision.
Blepharoplasty: combined with facelift, MicroLaser Peel, BotoxMany patients also combine upper blepharoplasty with surgical options like the facelift or lower blepharoplasty, as well as non-surgical options like the MicroLaser Peel or Botox.
Blepharoplasty: candidate in good health, non-smokerTo be considered a good candidate for upper blepharoplasty, you should be in overall good health (including non-smoking).
Rhinoplasty: well-performed results expected to be permanentA well-performed rhinoplasty by a facial plastic surgeon is expected to be permanent. However, the younger you are when having rhinoplasty, there is a small but increased chance of your nose changing shape with age.
Liposuction: submental most permanent double chin solutionChin liposuction is the most permanent and effective solution for a double chin. Good candidates for submental liposuction typically identify with the following:
Liposuction: submental candidate needs good skin elasticityTo benefit the most from submental liposuction, you should have good skin elasticity (since liposuction does not remove stretched or sagging skin).

Before you book here

Verify three things yourself, whichever practice you choose: certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, or Royal College certification (FRCSC) in Canada; whether the operating facility is accredited or the surgeon holds hospital privileges for your exact procedure; and how many of that operation they perform each year. Our guide to choosing a plastic surgeon covers how to check each one.
