Eyelid and facelift surgery
Plastic surgery techniques are available to recreate youthful appearances. An eyelid surgery will smooth and remove excess skin around the eyes, thus eliminating wrinkles and giving eyes a young appearance. During a facelift, tiny incisions are made along the top of the forehead and near the ears. Excess skin is then smoothed back and removed to give a rejuvenated look.
Scar revisions
There are several ways to treat scars, typically wide or heaped up (hypertrophic) scars are removed surgically to make them much less noticeable.
Rhinoplasty (nose job)
Rhinoplasty is any surgery that changes the shape of the nose. This may be done to repair a deformity from injury or to improve the cosmetic appearance of the nose. This might also be done to improve breathing through the nose. The procedure may take 1 to 2 hours, and in most cases will be performed at an outpatient surgical facility. Consult your Vancouver Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor for more exact information on your situation.
Skin cancer
Signs of skin discoloration or moles that appear to change shape, size or color, or begin to bleed may be signs of skin cancer. In any case, any abnormal change on the skin should be examined by your Vancouver ENT physician as early as possible. Our doctors have extensive training to diagnosis and treat all types of head and neck cancer, including skin cancer.
Reconstruction of the face and neck
Deformities of the head and neck have many causes and thus may require many different types of treatments to correct. Our doctors are very experienced in diagnosing and treating these problems. Complicated reconstruction often requires a team of specialists and in these cases we frequently collaborate with a variety of other physicians to provide the best possible outcome for our patients.
