Chin Augmentation: Uses implants or sliding genioplasty to enhance chin projection. Results are permanent and suitable for patients seeking significant structural changes.
Cheekbone Enhancement: Involves implants or fat grafting to create higher, more defined cheekbones. Recovery typically takes 2-4 weeks.
Jaw Contouring: Reduces or enhances jaw width for a more balanced facial proportions. May involve bone shaving or implant placement.
Dermal Fillers: Hyaluronic acid or other filler materials injected to add volume and contour. Results last 6-18 months depending on product used.
Thread Lifts: Dissolvable threads provide subtle lifting effect. Recovery is minimal, with results lasting 1-2 years.
Botulinum Toxin: Can reshape masseter muscles for a slimmer lower face appearance. Requires regular maintenance every 4-6 months.
