Procedures I'm known for
Eyelid Enhancement
I am renowned for my expertise in upper eyelid surgery. Patients with a drooping upper eyelid often come to me with concerns of looking older, tired, sad, or even angry. I consistently earn patient referrals for creating natural-looking eyelid surgery results, especially Asian double eyelid surgery (also called Asian blepharoplasty). Double eyelid surgery, in addition to other specialized adjunctive eyelid procedures, such as medial epicanthoplasty and ptosis repair, are one of the most common procedures I perform among patients who are looking to make their eyes appear larger and wider.
People of all ages and ethnic backgrounds may be good candidates for traditional upper eyelid surgery. I have extensive experience in choosing the appropriate technique to achieve the desired results. During your consultation at my Newport Beach practice, we'll discuss your eyelid enhancement goals and what this procedure can achieve for you.
Breast Surgery
If you are looking for a breast augmentation surgeon in Newport Beach, I invite you to view my before-and-after pictures. I perform all kinds of breast enhancement surgery, from breast augmentation—with breast implants or fat transfer—to a breast lift, or mastopexy, which contours the breasts and raises them higher on the chest.
I am proud to have the specialized training to perform the endoscopic-assisted transaxillary breast augmentation technique, which involves placing the implant through an incision in the armpit. This technique, which results in no scarring on the breast, is performed by only a small number of surgeons. At a consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and which procedure may be best, to shape the breasts you've been dreaming of.
Face and Neck Lifts
If you’re experiencing sagging skin on your face and neck and would like to achieve a smoother, tighter appearance, facelift surgery might be for you. At my Orange County practice, I fully customize every facelift to the needs of my patients. Sometimes my Newport Beach patients only need a mini facelift to accomplish their goals, while others benefit from the incorporation of liposuction, fat transfer, and/or blepharoplasty to address their specific concerns.
