Services
Facelift
A facelift addresses aging signs like jowls and sagging skin, restoring a youthful appearance through advanced techniques such as SMAS and MACS lifts. Ideal for patients seeking natural-looking results, this procedure tightens underlying muscles and removes excess skin. Dr. Brownrigg combines expertise with 3D imaging to ensure personalized, long-lasting outcomes.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose for improved symmetry and function, addressing cosmetic concerns or breathing issues like deviated septums. Dr. Brownrigg uses open or closed techniques to refine nasal structure, ensuring results harmonize with facial features. Patients benefit from enhanced confidence and improved respiratory function.
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from upper or lower eyelids, correcting drooping and puffiness. This procedure rejuvenates the eye area, improving vision and appearance. Dr. Brownrigg tailors techniques to achieve natural contours, often combining it with brow lifts for comprehensive rejuvenation.
BOTOX Cosmetic
BOTOX Cosmetic reduces wrinkles by temporarily relaxing facial muscles, targeting areas like crows feet and forehead lines. Results appear within days and last up to four months. Dr. Brownriggs precise injections ensure a refreshed, youthful look without over-treatment.
3D Facial Imaging
3D VECTRA imaging allows patients to visualize potential surgical outcomes before procedures. This technology enhances consultation accuracy, enabling Dr. Brownrigg to plan adjustments for optimal symmetry and patient satisfaction. It reduces uncertainty and builds confidence in treatment decisions.
