Facial Cosmetic Surgery Procedures in Arcadia, CA

Chow Center offers various types of facial plastic surgery in Arcadia, each designed to enhance and rejuvenate your face and reflect your inner vitality. These procedures not only aim to restore a youthful appearance but also improve facial harmony, ensuring results that complement your natural features.
Facelift
Facelifts address the lower third of the face and neck, targeting the jawline, jowls, laugh lines, chin, and neck. This procedure aims to reverse the signs of aging, restoring a more refreshed and youthful appearance. Our practice offers the following kinds of facelifts:

• Mini-facelift – Designed for individuals with moderate signs of aging, the mini-facelift focuses on specific areas, offering a less invasive alternative with quicker recovery.
• Midface lift – Concentrating on the mid-region of the face, this lift elevates sagging cheeks and reduces nasolabial folds, restoring youthful contours.
• Revision facelift – Designed for individuals who have undergone previous facelifts, this procedure addresses any signs of aging that have developed since the initial surgery, refining the results.

We also provide a non-surgical approach to rejuvenate your face — the liquid facelift. This innovative treatment uses injectables to revitalize the face and neck without surgery. It’s an excellent option for those seeking immediate results with minimal downtime.

Brow (Forehead) Lift

A brow lift rejuvenates the upper face by lifting drooping eyebrows and smoothing forehead wrinkles, improving the overall expression and making the face appear more alert and refreshed.

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, is performed to improve the nose’s appearance or function. It can correct asymmetry, reduce or increase size, and refine the nasal tip or bridge, ensuring the nose complements other facial features.

Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is designed to remove or redistribute excess skin, fat, and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. This procedure can correct droopy eyelids and remove under-eye bags, brightening the eyes and contributing to a more rested and youthful appearance.
