Dr Gartner’s Plastic Surgery of the Face
Facial Plastic Surgery Procedures are designed to alter (and hopefully, improve) the appearance of specific features of the face, head, and neck. Sometimes these procedures can significantly improve function as well. Find out more about all of the Facial procedures we perform below.
Short Scar Face Lift (MACS) This minimal access cranial suspension lift is ideal for individuals with sagging in the mid face or cheeks. The MACS Lift is minimally invasive and leaves less visible scarring than a traditional Facelift with the added benefit of a faster recovery time. More Information about Short Scar Face Lift (MACS)
Rhinoplasty Reshaping the nose can significantly enhance an individual’s facial appearance by creating a more balanced and pleasing profile. It is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures. The Rhinoplasty procedure is completely customized to uniquely compliment each patient’s face to achieve the most natural appearance.

Eyelid Surgery As people age, the eyelid skin stretches, muscles weaken, and fat accumulates around the eyes causing “bags” above and below. Technically know as Blepharoplasty, this procedure can dramatically refresh your eyelids by getting rid of that tired look. More Information about Eyelid Surgery
Brow Lift Frown lines above the nose and in the middle of the forehead can produce an unwanted, older looking appearance. As a result of stress and age, we tend to make facial expressions that promote creases, resulting in a serious, unhappy or aged appearance.
Otoplasty A surgical procedure used to correct the position of the ears, Otoplasty can help make ears lie closer to the head or reduce the size of prominent ears. Patients report high satisfaction with the results of this surgery, and many female patients are able to wear their hair up for the first time in their lives.
Facial Implants Facial Implants are used to provide a more harmonious balance to the features of the face. Subtle implants can be placed to improve a chin profile or highlight more prominent cheek bones. A chin implant can improve the neckline and make a large nose appear smaller.
Face / Neck Rejuvination A Facelift restores smoother, softer contours to the face and neck. It can help you look as good as you feel, and perhaps even help you to feel younger than you are. A Facelift can “turn back the clock” and improve most of the visible signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles, and reshaping the skin of the face and neck.
Mole Excision Some moles need to be removed because they are a danger to your health, others because of personal choice. If you feel a mole needs to be removed to improve your appearance, why wait? It’s not going to go away on its own.
Fat Injections Injectable Fillers are used to fill out wrinkles and depressions in the face. Aging can cause the face to “hollow out” giving a wrinkled, older look. Injectable Fillers are used to plump up deep laugh lines, wrinkles, or even cheek bones. They can be used to augment the lips and chin, and give volume where it’s needed to the face.
