What Procedures Do You Offer?

Brow Contouring

Brow contouring is a surgical procedure that reshapes the brow bone to create a more feminine and delicate appearance. This procedure aims to soften and refine the upper facial features by carefully sculpting the brow bone, resulting in a more harmonious and feminine aesthetic. Dr. Ching utilizes advanced techniques to achieve natural-looking results, ensuring that the brow contouring procedure enhances your overall facial balance and symmetry.

Browlift

A browlift, also known as a forehead lift, is designed to elevate the eyebrows and reduce forehead wrinkles, ultimately creating a more youthful and feminine expression. This procedure can address concerns related to a heavy or sagging brow, helping to open up the upper face and restore a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. Dr. Ching's expertise in browlift surgery focuses on achieving subtle yet impactful results, enhancing the natural beauty of the eyes and forehead area.

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, is a transformative procedure that aims to soften and refine the nose to achieve a more feminine profile. Dr. Ching's approach to rhinoplasty involves meticulous attention to detail as he addresses structural concerns and aesthetic goals. Whether refining the nasal bridge, reshaping the tip, or addressing breathing issues, rhinoplasty can help create a more balanced and elegant facial appearance.

Chin and Jaw Contouring

Chin and jaw contouring procedures are tailored to reshape the chin and jawline, creating a softer and more feminine facial structure. Customizing the surgical approach to each patient's unique anatomy and chin and jaw contouring can contribute to a more harmonious and graceful overall facial profile.

Tracheal Shave

Tracheal shave, also known as chondrolaryngoplasty, is a surgical procedure that reduces the prominence of the Adam's apple, creating a more feminine neck contour. This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals seeking to achieve a smoother and more feminine neck appearance that aligns with their desired gender expression. Dr. Ching's expertise in tracheal shave surgery emphasizes precision and attention to detail, ensuring a natural and graceful outcome.

What is Recovery Like Afterwards?
