Are People Seeing the Real You?
Dissatisfaction with the appearance of your face can negatively impact your self-esteem and everyday interactions. If you are unhappy with certain aspects of your appearance but have an overall healthy self image, plastic surgery may be an option. Surgery is not a cure-all, but an experienced plastic surgeon can enhance your appearance and help you feel more comfortable in business and social settings.
Rhytidectomy (Facelift)
As you age, your face may begin to look older than you feel. A facelift is a popular way to repair the visible signs of aging on a patient’s face. The procedure involves removing excess fat, tightening the support muscles, and re-draping the outer skin, to rejuvenate your entire appearance. Following a facelift, you can expect a dramatic improvement in the skin around the cheeks and jaw line. Facelift surgery can be performed in conjunction with browlift and/or blepharoplasty to improve the appearance of the forehead and area around the eyes.

Portrait® by Rhytec
Do you want to get rid of the damage the sun has caused to your skin; skin discoloration, texture, and elasticity, without the use of laser resurfacing? Portrait® plasma skin regeneration is the solution for you.
Portrait® plasma skin regeneration is not a laser procedure. It has a resurfacing and rejuvenating effect by applying thermal energy, which is generated by the sun and present around us.
Because the thermal energy released into the skin during a treatment is absorbed, the treated area experiences incredible collagen and elastin regeneration. The new, healthy tissue eventually replaces the damaged, wrinkled tissue.

Browlift
Years of sun damage and habitual facial expressions can leave the forehead wrinkled with “frown lines” and the eyebrows droopy. A browlift can be performed to tighten facial muscles, smooth the skin of the forehead, and lift the eyebrows into a more youthful position. When performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Chong, a browlift can make a patient look years younger without drastically changing their general overall appearance. Full recovery generally takes a few weeks. Normal work habits can be resumed within a week or so.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
As our skin and muscles lose elasticity over the years, the area around the eyes can become noticeably droopy and puffy. Eyelid surgery is a long-term solution for droopiness, sagging, bags, or puffiness around the eyes. Though all surgery has a certain amount of risk, for the most part, eyelid surgery is a fast and predictable procedure with a high rate of patient satisfaction.
You should not expect an improvement in wrinkles or crow’s feet as eyelid surgery is not intended to correct these problems.

BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a fast and effective non-surgical procedure that greatly diminishes frown lines on the forehead and between your eyebrows. Injections take about ten minutes and there is no recovery time; you simply walk out of the office and continue with your day. You should see results within a few days, and the effects generally last for about four months.

Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)
Cosmetic rhinoplasty is an option for patients who are dissatisfied with the external appearance of their nose. As with other surgeries, patients should have realistic expectations beforehand. Your consultation with Dr. Chong will include a computer simulation, which will help communicate the patient’s objectives and the surgeon’s recommendations.

Chin
Chin augmentation is an often-overlooked, but extremely effective, cosmetic surgical procedure. A chin implant procedure can be a good way to augment a recessed chin or balance a prominent nose. Chin implant surgeries are often performed by Dr. Chong in conjunction with rhinoplasty and/or other procedures for an optimally balanced effect. Chin implants can be custom-shaped to best complement the face of every patient. Once the patient’s recovery is complete, he or she should have a well-balanced, naturally shaped jaw line.

Facial Contouring with Fillers or Implants
Structural fat grafting involves transferring a patient’s fat (from a remote site, such as the trunk), to restore facial volume loss.
We also offer other "off the shelf" fillers such as...
Most of these fillers provide "instantaneous gratification" or "correction". The longevity or retention of results will, however, vary individually.
Finally, facial implants may provide a long-lasting correction.

Lip Augmentation
Lip augmentation involves creating a fuller mouth by augmenting the natural tissue of the lips. The effects of lip augmentation with injectable fillers are temporary, so periodic upkeep is required to maintain optimal results. Lip augmentation is a relatively straightforward procedure with low risks, and the procedure has the benefit of subtly but significantly improving a patient’s overall appearance.
