Procedures and techniques named

Breast augmentation: mammoplasty for asymmetry, small breastsBreast augmentation, also known as mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of the breasts. It effectively corrects imbalances, congenital asymmetry, or naturally small breasts, helping patients achieve a more proportionate and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Blepharoplasty: removes excess skin, fat, or muscleEyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is designed to remove excess skin and fat or muscle from the upper and lower eyelids to open the eyes and enhance their appearance.
Blepharoplasty: lower, 90 minutes, combined with faceliftLower Eyelid surgery is more complex surgery and can be done in a surgical setting, taking about 90 minutes. Blepharoplasty can be done as a single procedure, or in conjunction with other facial surgery such as a facelift or a brow lift.

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.
