Rhinoplasty (nose job)
The trend in rhinoplasty is all about the "natural" look.

Rhinoplasty surgery can:
1. Remove humps over the bridge of the nose,
2. Modify & refine the nasal tip,
3. Narrow or widen the nostrils.
4. Improve the angle between the nose and the upper lip
Anti-wrinkle Injections
Throughout history, people have looked for ways to achieve a younger, more vibrant look by improving their facial appearance. A procedure utilising Anti-wrinkle Injections is used for the treatment of facial lines and wrinkles.
Anti-wrinkle Injections have been safely used for certain medical conditions for more than a decade. This procedure, sometimes referred to as cosmetic denervation, has been considered a safe and effective way of treating aging skin.
It is used to eliminate or reduce worry and frown lines, "crows feet", laugh lines, and other wrinkles sometimes called dynamic wrinkles.

Otoplasty (prominent ears)
Ear surgery, otoplasty, is usually done to set prominent ears back closer to the head or to reduce the size of large ears.
For the most part, the operation is done on children between the ages of four and 14. Ears are almost fully grown by age four, and the earlier the surgery, the less teasing and ridicule the child will have to endure.
Ear surgery on adults is also possible, and there are generally no additional risks associated with ear surgery on an older patient.

Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
One of the first signs of early aging is bagginess or puffiness around the eyes, often associated with wrinkling of the eyelid skin. Blepharoplasty is designed to correct this condition and to restore the youthful, alert appearance of your eyes.
This condition may be present in the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. It may also be associated with looseness of the skin of the eyebrows or temple region.

Brow Lift (endoscopic & open), Foreheadplasty
It is no secret with the arrival of Anti-wrinkle Injections in the treatment of the forhead region, the number of patients needing this procedure has dropped.
However, there are still a few good indications for this procedure:
1. Lateral fullness of the upper eyelid and lower brow; common complaint from patients: looking tired. It’s caused by gravitational descent of the forehead and brow skin over the orbital bony rim.
2. Frown lines are caused by contraction of the corrugator muscles between the eyebrows over the bridge or root of the nose.
3. Transverse forehead wrinkles are caused by muscle activity in raising or lowering the eyebrows themselves.

Fat Transfer To Lips & Nasolabial Folds
Using your own body's fat and without the use of foreign material such as Dermal Fillers Dr. Tavakoli sculpts the tissues of the face and body to create more angular cheeks, healthier eyes, a stronger jawline or more voluptuous lips.
The fat is harvested gentley using standard liposuction method, however it then is purified in a number of scientifically proven steps to separate the oil and blood cells. This is done in the operating theatre prior to injection of the fat in to problem areas. The latter usually includes the upper and lower lips, nasolabialfolds and the cheek area.

Chin & Cheek Implants
Facial implants can enhance your appearance and bolster your self esteem. If you are looking for improvement, not perfection, in your appearance and are realistic in your expectations, you may find that a facial implant is the right choice for you.
Plastic Surgeons will frequently use such implants to bring better balance to the features of a younger patient. For instance, a teenage girl may want her nose reshaped or her chin brought forward so that these traits are better proportioned.
The more mature patient may choose to have an implant placed in conjunction with another cosmetic procedure. For example, during a facelift, a patient may wish to have implants placed over the cheekbones to help restore a more youthful appearance. Implants may also be selected to fill out a face that appears "sunken" or tired.
