Facial Procedures Available
Our facial plastic surgery procedures include:

Brow Lift
For better or worse, even subtle changes in your forehead and brow area can produce a dramatic difference. Make this reality work in your favor with a natural-looking, surgical brow lift performed by Dr. Ellen Mahony.

Ear Pinning/Otoplasty
For women and men with large or oddly shaped ears, hiding behind long hair does not have to be your go-to solution. With cosmetic ear reshaping – called otoplasty – Dr. Ellen Mahony can give you ears you are proud to bear.

If you feel weighed down by droopy eyelids so that you tend to look tired even when wide awake, eyelid surgery may be your answer. Dr. Ellen Mahony will assess your facial contours to determine whether eyelid surgery will give you the more relaxed and energized look you want.

Facial Augmentation
Combat the loss of facial volume, decreased collagen production and even bone structure shifts with Dr. Ellen Mahony’s strategic facial augmentation treatment combination. Utilizing a variety of non-surgical procedures, she will restore the aesthetic proportions of your face, giving you back a softer, more youthful appearance.

Facelift
From a drooping face to sagging jowls or a turkey neck, age and gravity often change our appearance in unwelcome ways. Dr. Ellen Mahony provides facelift and neck lift surgery to patients ready to make a noticeable yet natural-looking change. With her multi-layer process, she addresses upper and lower layers of the skin to provide a result that still looks like you just (thankfully) younger.

Neck Contouring Procedures
Because of its delicate skin, the neck is one of the first places women show signs of age – but it doesn’t have to be. With significant experience performing surgical and non-surgical neck and jaw contouring procedures, Dr. Ellen Mahony will develop a treatment plan ideally suited to your neck to achieve slender lines and firmer skin.

Buccal Fat Removal
Buccal fat removal reduces fullness in the lower cheeks, creating slimmer, more defined facial contours. The procedure enhances cheekbone definition and overall facial sculpting.
Upper Lip Lift
An upper lip lift shortens the space between the nose and upper lip to improve lip shape and youthful facial proportions. The procedure can create a more defined, naturally fuller-looking upper lip.
Lip Enhancement
Lip enhancement improves lip volume, shape, and definition for a more balanced, youthful appearance. Treatments are customized to create subtle, natural-looking results that complement the face.
Perioral Mound Reduction
Perioral mound reduction improves excess fullness around the corners of the mouth and lower face. The procedure helps create smoother facial contours and a more youthful appearance.
Earlobe Reshaping and Reduction
Earlobe reshaping restores a more balanced appearance to stretched, torn, elongated, or uneven earlobes. The procedure can repair damage caused by aging, earrings, gauges, or injury.
