Eyelid surgery work
The eyelid surgery page covers upper and lower blepharoplasty with an emphasis on tissue preservation. Techniques named: transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty (incision inside the lower lid, no external scar) for patients with good skin quality, and transcutaneous lower blepharoplasty (sub-lash incision) when excess skin also needs treatment; fat preservation and repositioning rather than aggressive removal; and upper eyelid ptosis repair, performed alone or combined with upper blepharoplasty when the lid margin itself sits low. A separate Asian eyelid surgery page describes double eyelid surgery that creates or refines the upper eyelid crease according to each patient's native anatomy, crease pattern and epicanthal fold. A related endoscopic brow lift page addresses brow descent through small scalp incisions, sometimes combined with upper blepharoplasty. The eyelid surgery gallery shows multiple upper, lower and combined cases; the Asian eyelid surgery gallery and brow lift gallery each show before-and-after cases.
Other procedures
The practice also offers deep plane facelift, endoscopic facelift, mini facelift, neck contouring, facial fat transfer, rhinoplasty, lip lift, otoplasty, earlobe repair, buccal fat pad removal, breast surgery (augmentation, lift, reduction, revision), body contouring (tummy tuck, liposuction, arm lift, thigh lift, mommy makeover) and non-surgical treatments (fillers, Morpheus8, Sculptra, laser skin resurfacing).
