Procedures
Facelift
The signs of facial aging are familiar—the skin loses elasticity, the fat and muscles in the face begin to sag, the muscles in the neck become more prominent. These aging changes of the face can be corrected or improved with a surgical procedure called a facelift.
Brow Lift
Brow lift, also called a forehead lift, elevates the brow to a more youthful position. It is frequently performed with a facelift and eyelid surgery for facial rejuvenation. The aesthetic goal of rejuvenation of the forehead is obtaining a youthful shape to the brow, not just elevation of the brow.
Eyelid Surgery
Surgery on upper eyelids is performed to address excess skin and fatty protrusions that appear in the upper eyelid. Surgery on lower eyelids improves the fatty bulges that form in that region. Loss of tone in the lower eyelid may require tightening of the muscle of the lower eyelid as well.
Plastic Surgery for Men
Facial plastic surgery is an art form, and aesthetics for men are not the same as for women. From facelift surgery to nose surgery, men are unique. Our procedures and treatments for men are tailored to align with a masculine identity and natural look, with nuances that are truly just for men.
Neck Lift
Neck lift surgery can address the three factors of aging in the neck: fat accumulation, loosening of the neck muscles, and excess skin. For less invasive approaches, we perform facial liposuction and use the i-Guide suture-suspension system. We also perform more extensive procedures when needed.
Ear Surgery
The negative social and psychological attention that comes from prominent ears often requires early treatment. For this reason Dr. Szachowicz can correct ears when the growth of the outer ear is nearly complete, usually around four to six years of age. The procedure is also available for adults.
Fat Transfer
The fat in your face provides volume, shape, and smoothness to the facial contours. However, over time facial fat can shift, deflate, and sag. Fat can now be harvested from the abdomen (or other sites of fatty deposits) and then be prepared to add aesthetic volume to the face.
Cheek Augmentation
Loss of contours in the middle of the face is a telltale sign of aging. Cheek implants are custom-designed to add three-dimensional volume to the cheeks and mid-face. The implants are placed through incisions in the mouth and are permanent, yet can be removed at any time.
Chin Implant
Many people are unaware that the chin may be augmented surgically through a relatively uncomplicated procedure. The most common chin implants are fashioned of solid surgical silicone and are intended to provide a lifetime correction for those with a weak chin (microgenia).
