Head and Facial Plastic Surgery

When we meet people the first thing we examine is their head. No wonder that the most popular types of plastic surgeries are performed on this part of the body. The reason for a head surgery may be a birth defect, general unhappiness with a certain feature, signs of aging, smoking, sun exposure and genetics. These procedures can help with problems like a weak chin, sagging neck or crow's feet and wrinkles. By improving the overall appearance, shape or size of facial features it can also increase self-confidence.

Otoplasty (ear surgery) can correct protruding ears, large or otherwise deformed earlobes, or other cosmetic ear problems.

The neck lift involves tightening muscles and removing excess skin from around the jaw and chin. It can be combined with liposuction to remove fat and help with sagging jowls.

Rhinoplasty, also called as a nose job, is used to reshape the nose. It can correct a structural deformity (such as a bump or hook), change the nose size and shape, or correct a functional problem (such as difficulty breathing).
