Face Lift

A Natural-Looking Face Lift—the Ultimate Goal

Did she? Didn’t she? Celebrity-centric headlines around the world love to focus upon speculation. We’re always wondering whether one star or another has received a face lift or other plastic surgery treatment. The plastic surgeons behind these subtly successful procedures should be proud. After all, the goal of a face lift is not to make […]

Breast Augmentation is the World’s Favorite Plastic Surgery Procedure

The International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery released its 2014 Global Stats Report on July 31, totaling and tallying plastic surgery and related information, including breast augmentation from around the world. The results come from data regarding procedures performed in 2013, and were gathered from surveys given to almost 1,600 international plastic surgeons. So what […]

An Endoscopic Forehead Lift Minimizes Pain and Recovery

Lip Enhancement Has Come a Long Way

A common question when it comes to such procedures as lip enhancement involves longevity. How long will the results from this treatment last? While some injection techniques provide temporary improvement and require regular maintenance or repeat visits in order to preserve the desired look, I’m happy to report that my approach to lip enhancement yields […]

Liposuction Pairs Well with a Tummy Tuck

In a previous post about tummy tuck procedures, I mentioned liposuction as another method that Toronto residents may use to get rid of unwanted fat before having their abdominal skin and muscles tightened. That method deserves a little more exploration here. Since an abdominoplasty isn’t a weight-loss procedure—though it does involve some fat removal—patients coming […]
