Blepharoplasty (Eyelid)
The skin around the eyes and eyelids is very delicate and shows signs of aging much sooner than skin in other areas of the face. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid plastic surgery, can help patients to correct drooping upper eyelids; under-eye bags can also be reduced and firmed up with eyelid plastic surgery. The eyes are probably a person's most expressive feature, and yet the effects of aging can sometimes make a person look tired or sad even when they are not. The result is a brighter, more refreshed appearance. To ensure a complete approach to facial rejuvenation, blepharoplasty is sometimes combined with other facial surgery procedures such as a brow lift.

Facelift
Turning back the clock is something many people would like to do. A facelift is a surgical procedure that can help remove wrinkles and tighten sagging skin. And it is not just a procedure for women, as men can enjoy similar benefits!

A facelift is often performed in conjunction with other surgical and non-surgical procedures such as blepharoplasty, neck lift, and brow lift to ensure a holistic approach to facial aesthetics. During the facelift procedure, the incisions are usually hidden within the hairline in order to hide scars and maintain a natural appearance. A facelift can be performed as an outpatient procedure and the patient should be able to return to normal activities within a few weeks.

Cheek Lift (Endoscopic / Minimally Invasive)
The middle of the face sometimes begins to crease and droop due to the effects of time, sun, stress, and gravity. A cheek lift can help restore a youthful contour and appearance to your face with a shorter recovery time than a full facelift. Using an endoscope, the procedure may be performed with minimal incisions, making recovery easier and decreasing chances of visible scarring.

Chin implantation
The relationship between the chin and nose is an important feature of facial esthetic beauty. By optimizing the balance between the nose and chin, facial harmony may be achieved. Facial implants can augment a weak chin and enhance cheekbones, creating a more contoured and pleasing face. Implantation may be performed through an external incision with a silastic implant or by bony osteotomy and moving the chin forward and fixating it with screws and plates. Both are options individualized to the patient.

Men can benefit from this procedure and obtain that strong chin they’ve always wanted! Call Dr. Pryor today for a consultation.

Otoplasty (Protruding Ears)
Otoplasty is a surgical procedure that is used to improve the appearance of large or protruding ears. Many people, especially children, can suffer from low self-esteem and decreased confidence if they feel that their ears are too large. Otoplasty can resize the ears, making them smaller and setting them back closer to the head. The procedure can improve both appearance and self-confidence. Otoplasty is most commonly performed on children and teens, but it cannot be performed on children under the age of five because their ears are still growing. Older patients can benefit from otoplasty as well.

Reconstructive Surgery
Scar Revision
Facial scars cannot be removed completely but their appearance can be made less noticeable and more easily camouflaged with cosmetics. Many factors determine the severity of a scar, including the depth or size of a wound, skin tone, and the blood supply to the affected area. Though a surgeon cannot completely eliminate a scar, the appearance of a scar can be significantly improved. Scar revision is a surgical procedure used to improve the appearance of scars that do not respond to cortisone drugs, steroids, or skin gels. Several techniques are available including excision, dermabrasion, and laser treatment.
