Services
Facelift
A facelift restores youthful contours by addressing sagging skin and deep creases. Our surgeons use advanced techniques to tighten underlying tissues while preserving natural facial expressions. Patients achieve refreshed appearances with minimal scarring, benefiting from personalized approaches that consider individual anatomy and aging patterns. Recovery typically involves one to two weeks of social downtime.
Rhinoplasty
Nose reshaping surgery improves facial harmony by modifying nasal structure. Our specialists address both aesthetic concerns and functional breathing issues through customized surgical plans. Techniques include cartilage grafting and septal corrections, with recovery involving initial swelling reduction within two weeks followed by gradual refinement over months.
Hair Transplant
Hair restoration procedures utilize follicular unit extraction to combat hair loss. Our automated FUE technology ensures precise graft placement with minimal scarring. Patients experience natural regrowth patterns starting three months post-treatment, with full results visible after 12-18 months through non-invasive harvesting techniques.
BOTOX
Botulinum toxin injections temporarily smooth dynamic wrinkles by relaxing targeted facial muscles. Our specialists use micro-dosing techniques to maintain natural expressions while reducing frown lines and crow's feet. Results appear within days, lasting three to four months with maintenance sessions preserving effects.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels improve skin texture through controlled exfoliation of damaged layers. We offer varying peel depths to address sun damage, acne scars, and fine lines. Post-treatment care includes sun protection and moisturization, with recovery times ranging from several days for light peels to two weeks for deeper treatments.
