Face
Get the look to match your youthful feel. If you have eyebrow “hooding” or an aged look, we can make small incisions in your scalp or along your hairline, leaving minimal scarring. A simpler alternative is to remove skin above your eyebrows, leaving a scar along your brow margin.
Average recovery time: 2 days to 2 weeks
Eyebrows often droop with aging. Usually, this is a combination of gravity and skin losing its elasticity. Once BOTOX Cosmetic® injections are no longer enough to restore a patient’s eyebrow position, that patient’s brows can be lifted surgically. Classically, this is done by removing scalp skin, leaving a scar on the scalp. A simpler alternative is to remove skin right above the eyebrows, leaving a scar along the brow margin. This latter option can be done under local anesthetic.
The recovery process is usually faster when the surgery is performed immediately above the eyebrows than when the incision is placed in the scalp. Either way, most patients return to work within a few days to a couple of weeks.
Wake up every morning feeling refreshed with a simple upper and/or lower eyelid lift. For your upper lids, we remove extra skin and fat and hide the scars in the lid creases. For your lower lids, we address the bulges, dark grooves and extra skin, placing scars below your lashes or in the back surfaces of your eyelids. This procedure is often done under local anesthetic, with or without sedation.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Blepharoplasty surgery can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids or both. Upper eyelids often need a removal or adjustment of extra skin and fat, and the scar is usually located in the crease of the lid. Lower eyelids are often plagued with extra skin, bulging fat and/or dark grooves. All of those areas are addressed individually with each patient’s operation. The scar on the lower eyelid either follows the eyelash line or is hidden behind the eyelid.
Usually, the sutures are removed within days, and many patients return to work within a week.
Correct protruding ears for a more confident you. We set the ears closer to the skull, reshaping and sculpting ear cartilage to meet each patient’s individual needs. Scars from this procedure are usually subtle and hidden behind the ears or within the ear creases.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
In rhinoplasty surgery, we give you the profile you’ve always wanted by addressing your nose’s unique features. Recovery is usually uncomplicated, but patience is key—while the shape of your new nose can be seen within days, full results may take up to a year.
Average recovery time: 7 to 10 days
Rhinoplasty surgery has gone through the biggest advances of any facial surgical procedure in the last 25 years. The nose’s bridge, bone width, nostrils and tip, including the tip’s size, prominence and how turned up it is, are all addressed individually to complement each patient’s unique features and desires.
Despite its complexity, rhinoplasty recovery is usually uncomplicated. Most patients return to work within a week. The shape of the nose can be seen within days, but full results may take over a year to see. Patience is key with a rhinoplasty.
Shape your nose without surgery. Using injectable fillers, we can alter the shape and appearance of your nose in about 15 minutes, allowing you to return to work within a few hours. The fillers dissolve slowly over the next year or so, but the liquid rhinoplasty can always be repeated.
Average recovery time: Under 12 hours
Look as invigorated as you feel. We smooth your cheek and neck contours by lifting your skin and tissue, hiding incisions around your ears and neck. To tailor to every patient’s desired look, we often perform additional procedures concomitantly such as fat grafting areas of your face to enhance volume.
Average recovery time: 7 to 10 days
Facelifts are probably the procedure most equated with plastic surgery. Incisions are hidden around the ears and neck to elevate the skin and address the “deep plane,” otherwise known as the SMAS and platysma muscle.
The strength and longevity of a facelift is accomplished by raising this deep plane and lifting it in conjunction with the facial skin. Additional procedures are commonly done to tailor the procedure to each patient’s desired outcome, such as fat grafting areas of the face to add volume.
Variations of facelift surgery include a malar lift, which mainly addresses the cheeks. For some patients, only the neck is addressed.
Restore lost volume and reduce signs of aging. We can recontour your skin, eliminate wrinkles and improve your skin tone and texture by transferring your fat from one area to another via liposuction and re-injection. Fat grafting can be a stand-alone procedure or performed with other operations, such as a facelift.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Add balance and definition to your natural features. These permanent silicone implants are placed on the bone. We often put implants along the jaw to give the chin more prominence, but we can place them just about anywhere to give more contour.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Bring your beauty to the surface. We use different lasers for various purposes. Commonly, our facial lasers restore healthy skin proteins to repair sun-damaged or aging skin.
Average recovery time: 1 to 2 weeks
Body
Recover your toned arms. We remove extra fat and skin from your arms, ridding patients of what’s known as a “batwing deformity” and hiding scars on the arms’ underside.
Average recovery time: 1 to 2 weeks
Restore the shape and contour of your abdomen. We remove extra fat and skin, leaving patients with flatter tummies and a scar hidden by swimwear. This procedure is almost always coupled with liposuction to reduce the abdomen’s fat layer. We often find a separation of the abdominal muscles, and if so, we repair the muscles during the procedure.
Average recovery time: 1 to 3 weeks
Show off your natural features. This procedure is often combined with liposuction. After we remove extra fat, we make incisions on the inner surface of your thighs to remove extra skin.
Average recovery time: 1 to 2 weeks
The scars in this procedure depend on how much skin is removed. In some patients, the scars can be hidden in the groove between the abdomen and the thigh and then brought around the inner, upper thigh. In patients who have more skin to be removed, we often add a vertical incision along the inner aspect of the thigh. The scar can extend a few inches or be brought below the knee.
Give yourself a lift. Distinct from a Brazilian Butt Lift, a classic buttock lift involves us making an incision at the upper part of your buttocks and lifting them, leaving a scar at the junction of your waist and buttocks. See Miami Thong Lift for a variation of this operation.
Average recovery time: 1 to 2 weeks
This is a variation of the classic buttock lift. Instead of making an incision at the top of your buttocks, we hide the scar between them, where a thong swimsuit will cover the scar.
Average recovery time: 1 to 2 weeks
Create a fuller figure. We liposuction one area (usually the love handles and waist), then inject the fat into the buttocks, giving them more volume and filling in the “hip dips.” Along with giving more shapely buttocks, this procedure also contours the surrounding areas.
Average recovery time: 1 to 2 weeks
This procedure is also known as autologous fat grafting to the buttocks. It’s a combined operation in which fat is liposuctioned from one area of the body and then injected into the buttocks for better shape and volume.
Classic liposuctioned areas are the love handles and waist, which, when liposuctioned, automatically make the buttocks look shapelier. Other areas can also be liposuctioned as needed. After liposuction, the fat is processed and reinjected into the buttocks’ fat layer to give more projection to the buttocks and to fill in the “hip dips” as necessary.
Occasionally, patients have tight bands beneath the skin which tether the skin and cause depressions. These bands can be released to give the buttocks more roundness.
More common than one might think, a labiaplasty operation makes the inner labia (labia minora) less prominent. We can also reduce large clitoral hoods or the outer labia (labia majora). If a patient’s labia majora has deflated over time, we can rejuvenate it with an injection of fat. Other procedures for the labia can be performed as necessary. The first 12 to 24 hours of recovery are a bit uncomfortable, but this area heals very quickly.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
A mommy makeover normally combines breast and abdominal procedures to restore a woman’s figure after having children. For the abdomen, we usually perform a liposuction and a tummy tuck. Brest procedures vary for each patient. The breast reductions are done if the breasts are too large.
If the mother has lost volume, she can consider a breast augmentation. The most common way to augment the breasts is with an implant. Other options include using her own fat or an injectable product (Revanesse® Contour™ XL). Augmentation procedures are often combined with a breast lift to address the droop of the breasts, which is common after pregnancy.
Do something for you. We can help restore patients’ figures after childbirth with individualized procedures such as liposuction, tummy tucks, breast reductions, breast augmentations and breast lifts.
Average recovery time: Up to 8 weeks, procedure dependent

Restore or create volume where you want it most. We can augment buttocks, breasts or other areas of your body by transferring your fat from one area to another via liposuction, processing the fat and then reinjecting it. Fat grafting can be a stand-alone procedure or performed with other operations.
Average recovery time: Procedure dependent
Fat is commonly used to restore volume in structures that have lost volume with aging or other changes. The fat is liposuctioned from one area, processed and then reinjected into another area. In many patients, this is a “two for one” operation—they get rid of stubborn fat in one area that has bothered them, and they get more volume in a desired area. Although this sounds wonderful, the donor area has to heal, and the amount of fat that survives with this process varies from patient to patient and operation to operation.
Get the shape you desire. We make small incisions and suction fat away with a specialized power-assisted machine. We also offer a “High-Definition Liposuction” procedure, where we liposuction fat layers to differing thicknesses to accentuate muscle contours.
Average recovery time: Procedure dependent
Liposuction is one of the most common procedures performed in aesthetic surgery. We make small incisions adjacent to the area to be liposuctioned. After injecting the fat with a tumescent solution to reduce the risk of bleeding and to enable a safer procedure, the fat is removed by suction. At the Plastic Surgery Centre, we use a specialized machine called a Power-Assisted Lipectomy machine to create the desired results.
We also offer a variation of liposuction called “High-Definition Liposuction.” Here, special attention is made to liposuction the fat layer to differing thicknesses to accentuate muscle contours.
Smooth unwanted divots and bumps. We can reduce the look of cellulite by dividing the bands that cause the cellulite and filling in the depressions with fat graft injections.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Cellulite is formed by small fibres that come from the muscles to the undersurface of the skin. These fibres securely anchor the skin in place. The surrounding skin is looser and moves with gravity, causing divots at the anchored spots where the fibres attach to the skin. Cellulite can be frustrating to treat, but cutting those bands with a needle and then injecting fat where they caused the depression helps to smooth the skin.
Breasts
Get the right shape and size to complement your form. Breast implants are filled with silicone gel or saline and have a silicone shell. We insert them through incisions under the breast, around the nipple, or, less commonly, in the armpit. Recovery is usually quite fast.
Average recovery time: 2 days to 1 week
This is one of the most common operations in aesthetic surgery. Breast implants all have a silicone shell and are filled either with silicone gel or saline. The implants are inserted either through incisions under the breast, around the nipple or, less commonly, in the armpit. Most implants are placed behind the Pectoralis Major muscle, but occasionally are placed in other locations, including on top of the muscle (subglandular), in the subfascial plane (subfascial) or partially beneath the muscle (known as a split-muscle breast augmentation) instead.
The recovery course is usually quite fast, and most women return to work within a few days to a week. Often, breast augmentation patients should refrain from chest exercises for roughly six weeks while the implants settle into place.
Gradually gaining popularity, this procedure involves injecting the fat liposuctioned from one area of a patient into her breasts. This can be a stand-alone procedure or done to smooth the transition between natural breast tissue and implants.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
For this procedure, fat is liposuctioned from other areas of the body, processed and then reinjected directly into the breast. Sometimes this is done as a stand-alone procedure. Other times, it is done in conjunction with implants to smooth out the transition between the woman’s natural breast tissue and her implant.
Usually, the donor site for the fat hurts more than the breast, and women return to work according to their comfort. Commonly, recovery entails less than a week off work.
Enhance your breasts without surgery. Injecting the hyaluronic acid filler, Revanesse® Contour™ XL, we can augment breasts and buttocks in minutes. Results show immediately and last for up to two years.
Average recovery time: Under 24 hours
For years, doctors have used injectable hyaluronic acid gels to add volume, most commonly in the face. These treatments are popular because they are easy to perform and because our bodies naturally produce hyaluronic acid, making us familiar with the substance.
A Canadian company recently created an injectable hyaluronic acid product for augmentation of breasts and buttocks called Revanesse® Contour™ XL. The procedure is done under local anesthetic and takes only minutes to perform. The results are seen immediately, and recovery is rapid, with most women returning to work within hours.
The gel is not permanent and ultimately dissolves after a year or two. For women who want quick results and do not want surgery, this is an excellent option.
Restore the desired contour, placement and perkiness of your breasts. Commonly performed after a woman has given birth, it can be combined with a breast augmentation to restore lost volume.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Find the breast size that suits you. A breast reduction removes extra weight and repositions the nipple.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Do something for you. We can help restore patients’ figures after childbirth with individualized procedures such as liposuction, tummy tucks, breast reductions, breast augmentations and breast lifts.

Unleash the beauty of your skin with an individualized anti-aging program. Utilize renowned skin care products including ZO, Vivier and Jane Iredale’s Mineral Cosmetics in your daily routine to rebuild and retain your youthful appearance. Our experts design the regime your skin needs.
Reduce signs of aging fast. Smooth out frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles and more with injections of BOTOX® Cosmetic, Xeomin® or Dysport®.
BOTOX® Cosmetic, Xeomin® and Dysport® are all injectable neuromodulators, meaning they temporarily paralyze muscles. Their effect often shows within a couple of days of injection, and results last from two to three months. Common areas of treatment are frown lines and crow’s feet, but other areas of the face are also treated.
Restore volume to your face. By injecting hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance our bodies naturally produce, we can rebalance your face and bring back youthful contours. Common HA fillers we use include Juvèderm®, Restylane®, Teosyal®, Belotero® and Revanesse® Contour™ XL. Our clinic also offers Sculptra®. Sculptra® results take longer (up to four to six weeks) but can last up to five years.

Chest
All men have breast tissue. In many men, the tissue becomes prominent enough to be visible or to cause discomfort. In a gynecomastia surgery, we remove this breast tissue, often through an incision around the areola, minimizing the appearance of a scar.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days

Average recovery time: Up to 7 days
Shape your abdominal contours. We remove extra skin and fat, leaving you with a more defined abdomen. This procedure is often coupled with liposuction of the upper abdomen and hips to reduce your abdomen’s fat layer. A repair of diastasis recti (stretched out abdominal muscles) is performed as necessary.
Average recovery time: Up to 2 weeks
Face
To reverse the effects of gravity on eyebrows, we can make incisions in the scalp or along the hairline and raise the brows. A simpler alternative is to remove skin above the eyebrows, leaving a scar along the brow margin.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Eyebrows often droop as we age. Usually, this is caused by a combination of gravity and skin losing its elasticity. Once BOTOX Cosmetic® injections are no longer enough to restore a patient’s eyebrow position, their brows can be lifted surgically. Classically, this is done by removing scalp skin, leaving a scar on the scalp. A simpler alternative is to remove skin right above the eyebrows, leaving a scar along the brow margin. The latter surgery can even be done under local anesthetic.
The recovery process is usually faster when the surgery is performed immediately above the eyebrows than when the incision is placed in the scalp. Either way, most patients return to work within a few days to a couple of weeks.
If the hooding of your upper eyelids bothers you, we can remove the extra skin and fat causing the hooding and place the scars within your lid crease. For lower eyelids, we can address bags, dark grooves and extra skin, giving a more refreshed look. Upper eyelid surgery is often done under local anesthetic without sedation. Lower eyelid surgery can be done under local anesthetic alone, although many patients choose to have it done with greater sedation—either conscious sedation or a general anesthetic.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
Blepharoplasty surgery can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids or both. Upper eyelids often need a removal or an adjustment of the extra skin and fat, and the scar is usually located in the crease of the lid. Lower eyelids are often plagued with extra skin, bulging fat and/or dark grooves. All of those areas are addressed individually with each patient’s operation. The scar on the lower eyelid either follows the eyelash line or is hidden behind the eyelid.
Usually, the sutures are removed within days, and many patients return to work within a week.
Facelift surgery is more common in males than one might think and is commonly combined with a brow lift or blepharoplasty surgery. To do a facelift, we place incisions along your hairline, around and behind your ears and then down the scalp hairline behind your ears. The skin and deeper layer are then lifted to rejuvenate your face and neck.
Average recovery time: 7 to 10 days
Facelifts are probably the procedure most equated with plastic surgery. Incisions are hidden around the ears and neck to elevate the skin and address the “deep plane,” otherwise known as the SMAS and platysma muscle.
The strength and longevity of a facelift is accomplished by raising this deep plane and lifting it in conjunction with the facial skin. Additional procedures, such as fat grafting areas of the face to add volume, are commonly done to tailor the procedure to a patient’s desired outcome.
Variations of facelift surgery include a malar lift, which mainly addresses the cheeks. For some patients, only the neck is addressed.
Get a more rugged and refined look. Chin liposuction removes the fat pad under your chin, helping create a strong jawline.
Average recovery time: Under 7 days
The nose is the most prominent facial feature. Rhinoplasty surgery alters the shape of the nose and corrects contour irregularities. It can be performed with techniques that help improve your ability to breathe through your nose.
Average recovery time: 7 to 10 days
