Additional Information – Facial Reconstructive/Plastic Surgery

• Rhinoplasty – a surgical procedure to improve the function or the appearance of the nose. It is also commonly called "nose reshaping" or "nose job". Rhinoplasty can be performed to meet aesthetic goals or for reconstructive purposes to correct trauma, birth defects or breathing problems.
• Otoplasty – a cosmetic surgery to change the appearance of the external ears. It can take many forms, such as bringing the ears closer to the head (often called ear pinning), reducing the size of very big ears or reshaping various bends in the cartilage. Other reconstructive procedures deal with the deformed or absent ears. Otoplasty surgery can involve a combination of moving, reshaping, adding or removing structural ear elements.
• Rhytidetomy – a face-lift procedure to help with sagging neck and jowls.
• Endoscopic browlift – a minimally invasive procedure to help refresh tired looking brows.
• Blepharoplasty – an eye lift procedure to rejuvenate sagging lids.
