This is one of the most requested aesthetic procedures.

Every year, half a million people who are interested in improving the appearance of their noses seek consultation with facial plastic surgeons. Some are unhappy with the noses they were born with, and some with the way aging has changed their nose. For others, an injury may have distorted the nose, or the goal may be improved breathing. But one thing is clear: nothing has a greater impact on how a person looks than the size and shape of the nose. Because the nose is the most defining characteristic of the face, a slight alteration can greatly improve one's appearance.

Whether the surgery is desired for functional or cosmetic reasons, your choice of a qualified facial plastic surgeon is of paramount importance. As you can see by his credentials, Our Doctor is trained in both ear, nose, throat, and facial cosmetic surgery, which provides you, with the highest level of training and expertise. Our Doctor will examine the structure of your nose, both externally and internally, to evaluate what you can expect from rhinoplasty. You are most likely to be pleased with the results of your surgery if you have a realistic idea of what nasal surgery can and cannot do.

Patients who are not satisfied with their profile may either desire a chin enhancement (implant) or reduction (bone surgery).  In order to achieve correct facial proportion, chin surgery is frequently recommended to patients undergoing rhinoplasty procedures.
Mentoplasty (chin surgery) is a term used to describe the restructuring and reformation of the “mentum” region of the face. This is the most anterior portion of the jaw or mandible. Sometimes, the jaw region can be quite prominent, called macrogenia or quite deficient and receded, which is called microgenia. By sculpting the chin through mentoplasty plastic surgery, a more aesthetically pleasing profile can be achieved.

Of course beauty and attractiveness are determined in a subjective manner and aesthetic features differ according to each individual’s unique preference. Nonetheless, there are certain profiles and contours that cause an individual to appear more or less attractive. Generally speaking, if a line drawn vertically along one’s profile, going from the base of the nose down to the front portion of the chin, an aesthetically acceptable profile would dictate that the chin be located within 2-3 millimeters behind this line. A “weak chin” is a condition in which the chin is retropositioned greater than 2 to 3 millimeters. In women, a slight degree of retropositioning is acceptable and even desired aesthetically. However in men, a masculine chin is preferred because a strong jaw line is characteristic of virility and strength, which is of particular importance for men.

Since each face has a unique shape and contour, the surgery will be slightly different for each patient.
Before the procedure, Our Doctor will evaluate your skin consistency and explain the surgery.
During a traditional facelift, Our Doctor makes an incision that typically begins around the hairline from the temple and curves around the earlobe, ending at the bottom of the hairline. These incision’s almost totally disappear over a short period of time and are concealed by the ears. Our Doctor may also make a small incision under the chin to specifically tighten the skin of the neck.

The goal of face lift surgery is to remove excess fatty tissue, tighten underlying facial muscles, and smooth facial skin – all with minimal scarring. Several types of face lift surgery procedures are available, including the standard face lift, the lower or mid facelift, also known as a Necklift, as well as the modified mini, or “weekend” facelift, which is a face lifting technique using endoscopic instruments that provide a much faster recovery.

Usually completed on an outpatient basis, these options can be performed using general anesthesia or a local anesthesia and sedative combination.

A forehead lift is often performed to treat conditions associated with aging. It may be done in conjunction with other rejuvenation surgeries to achieve a more harmonious facial appearance. It is a procedure that restores the youthful, refreshed look to the area above the eyes.
The effects of aging are inevitable, and, often, the brow and forehead area show the first signs. The skin begins to lose its elasticity. Sun, wind, and the pull of gravity all affect the face, resulting in frown lines, wrinkling across the forehead, and an increasing heaviness of the eyebrows. You can always opt for a non surgical dermal filler treatment like BOTOX®, but it does not last as long as surgery. Our Doctor is en expert at both procedures and he could recommend the best treatment for you. Even people in their thirties may have faces that look older than their years. Your tired, angry, or sad expression may not reflect how you actually feel. As a result, many people have opted for a procedure known as the forehead lift. Based on variations in how men and women age and on new advances in medical technology, different methods are used to perform this procedure.

Successful facial plastic surgery is a result of good rapport between patient and surgeon. Trust, based on realistic expectations and exacting medical expertise, develops in the consulting stages before surgery. Our Doctor can answer specific questions about your specific needs.
As with all elective surgery, good health and realistic expectations are prerequisites. When a surgeon tightens loose skin and removes the excess, forehead wrinkling and drooping brows are modified. The procedure is called a forehead lift or brow lift. If necessary, Our Doctor removes part of the muscle that causes vertical frown lines between the brows. The end result is a smoother brow and a more youthful expression.

The impact of protruding ears on the psychological well-being of both children and adults has long been noted by doctors. Adults can be embarrassed and camouflage their ears with their hair, and a child's self-imaging may be severely affected. It is a straightforward procedure, which can give you renewed confidence in your appearance.
Ear reshaping (Otoplasty) is one of the oldest Cosmetic procedures with a history that dates back to the late 19th century.
Ear reshaping is well known for boosting confidence and can totally change the overall appearance of the face, recovery is very quick and the results of an ear reshaping procedure are permanent and immediate.

Otoplasty surgery sets prominent ears back closer to the head or reduces the size of large ears.
The ear reshaping procedure involves removing skin and reshaping the cartilage from behind the ears.
Scaring is rarely visible because the ears are stitched into the new position with the incision marks cleverly concealed in the natural crease behind the ear.
The ear reshaping surgery normally takes 2-3 hours to complete and post-op recovery is just a weeks time.
Otoplasty can be safely performed on children ages 6 to 14. Ear surgery can also be safely performed on adults under local anesthesia and in an outpatients setting.

Aesthetic eyelid surgery is performed on adults of all ages. Some people have eyelid surgery to correct problems that are the result of aging, while others have inherited traits that cause them to seek treatment as early as their 20s or 30s.
Every year, one hundred thousand men and women choose blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) to improve the way they look. Droopy eyelids can make you look older and can also impair vision. Blepharoplasty corrects these problems and also removes puffiness and bags under the eyes that make you look worn and tired. This procedure cannot alter dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, nor can it change sagging eyebrows. Though blepharoplasty is often performed as a single procedure, Dr. Shakhov may also recommend a browlift, facelift, or skin resurfacing to achieve the best results.

Blepharoplasty is often done as an elective surgery for cosmetic reasons. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty is almost always done for cosmetic reasons, to improve puffy lower eyelid "bags" and reduce the wrinkling of skin. Asian blepharoplasty or double eyelid surgery is a special type of blepharoplasty that creates a crease in the upper eyelid. This "supratarsal fold" is common in many races but absent in about half of Asians. Surgery can artificially create this crease and make a 'single-lidded' patient appear 'double-lidded'. It is the most popular form of cosmetic surgery among those of east and southeast Asian background..

Blepharoplasty is sometimes needed for functional reasons as well. When an advanced amount of upper eyelid skin is present, the skin may protrude over the eyelashes and causes a loss of peripheral vision. The outer and upper parts of the visual field are most commonly affected and the condition may cause difficulty with activities such as driving or reading. In this circumstance, upper eyelid blepharoplasty is performed to improve peripheral vision.
