Procedures and techniques named

Blepharoplasty: upper, lower, or combination performedour board-certified surgeons perform both upper and lower blepharoplasty, or a combination of both, depending on your needs.
Blepharoplasty: incisions in natural creases, scars invisibleEyelid surgery incisions are strategically placed in the natural creases of the eyelids (upper) or just below the lash line (lower), making scars virtually invisible once healed.
Blepharoplasty: swelling peaks day 2-3, back to work 7-10 daysSwelling and bruising after blepharoplasty peak around day 2-3 and subside within 1-2 weeks. Most patients return to work within 7-10 days, with final results visible in a few months.
Facelift: full, mini, or combination customizedWe customize each procedure to address your specific concerns, whether that's a full facelift, mini facelift, or combination with other procedures.
Facelift: full addresses lower two-thirds, mini targets specific areasA full facelift addresses the entire lower two-thirds of the face and neck, while a mini facelift targets specific areas with smaller incisions.
Facelift: 2-3 weeks swelling, back to work 2-3 weeksExpect 2-3 weeks of significant swelling and bruising after a facelift. Most patients return to work in 2-3 weeks and resume full activities in 4-6 weeks. Final results are visible in 3-6 months.
Rhinoplasty: open uses columella incision, closed no visible scarOpen rhinoplasty involves a small incision on the columella (between the nostrils), providing better visibility. Closed rhinoplasty uses only internal incisions with no visible scarring.
Rhinoplasty: splint 1 week, results up to a yearA splint is worn for 1 week after rhinoplasty. Swelling and bruising are common for 2-3 weeks. Most patients return to work in 7-10 days. Final rhinoplasty results may take up to a year as subtle swelling resolves.
Mommy Makeover: light activities in 2-3 weeksMommy Makeover recovery varies based on the procedures included, but most patients return to light activities in 2-3 weeks and full activities in 6-8 weeks.
Mommy Makeover: combines tummy tuck, breast surgery, liposuctionA Mommy Makeover typically combines tummy tuck, breast surgery (augmentation, lift, or reduction), and liposuction.

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.
