Surgical Excellence, Artful Results.Facial Aesthetic Surgery Procedures
Dr. Shinji Lee offers a comprehensive range of facial aesthetic surgeries designed to rejuvenate, refine, and harmonize the face. From full and mini facelifts that lift and contour aging features, to neck lifts and facial implants that enhance jawline definition and restore youthful volume, each procedure is tailored to your anatomy and goals. Rhinoplasty and Asian rhinoplasty reshape the nose for improved symmetry and function, while blepharoplasty and Asian eyelid surgery address drooping lids and under-eye bags for a brighter, refreshed look. Brow lifts smooth forehead lines and elevate the brows, often in combination with eyelid surgery for optimal results.
Facelift
Facial Contouring
Facelift Surgery
Facelift surgery lifts and tightens sagging skin and deeper facial layers to smooth wrinkles and restore youthful contours in the mid and lower face. Incisions are hidden along the hairline and around the ears, helping to improve jowls, deep creases, and volume loss in the cheeks.
Mini (SMAS) Facelift
The mini facelift targets early signs of aging in the lower face using smaller incisions and a less invasive technique. By lifting the skin and SMAS layer, it improves mild jowls and wrinkles with faster recovery and subtler results than a full facelift.
Neck Lift
A neck lift smooths and tightens loose skin, vertical bands, and excess fat under the chin to define the jawline and create a younger-looking neck. It’s often combined with a facelift for more complete rejuvenation of the lower face and neck.
Facial Implants (Chin & Cheek)
Facial implants add definition to the cheeks or chin and restore volume to hollow areas for better facial balance. Made from safe, biocompatible materials, implants are placed through discreet incisions for natural, long-lasting results.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, enhances facial harmony by refining the nose’s size, shape, or profile to better complement individual features. The procedure may involve straightening a dorsal hump, refining the tip, narrowing the nostrils, or improving overall symmetry. Whether performed for cosmetic reasons or functional improvement, rhinoplasty offers subtle yet impactful results that can improve both appearance and confidence.
Asian Rhinoplasty
Asian rhinoplasty is a specialized form of nose surgery designed to address common aesthetic concerns such as a low nasal bridge, wide tip, or flared nostrils, while preserving the patient’s ethnic identity. Through structural refinement using cartilage grafts or implants, this procedure enhances nasal projection and balance in harmony with the rest of the face. Ideal for those seeking definition without overcorrection, Asian rhinoplasty delivers natural, tailored results unique to each individual.
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, addresses signs of aging around the eyes by removing excess skin, repositioning fat, and tightening muscles on the upper and lower eyelids. Incisions are placed in natural creases or just below the lash line for discreet healing. The result is a more youthful, rested, and alert eye appearance.
Asian Eyelid Surgery
For monolid eyes, a natural-looking crease is created to suit the overall size and shape of the eyes.
Depending on the patient’s eye condition, either the incision method or the non-incisional (buried suture) method is used to tailor the procedure to each individual.
Upper Blepharoplasty
This procedure removes sagging upper eyelid skin caused by aging, restoring a youthful and refreshed appearance. If the patient already has a double eyelid, the incision follows the existing crease, maintaining a natural look while enhancing eye definition.
Lower Blepharoplasty
This surgery removes protruding fat and trims loose skin under the eyes to reduce tired or aged appearance. It results in a more vibrant, youthful, and refreshed eye contour.
Breast Procedures
Dr. Shinji Lee specializes in breast augmentation procedures that enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of the breasts to help you achieve a natural, balanced appearance. Whether restoring volume lost due to aging, pregnancy, or weight loss, or creating a more proportionate figure, Dr. Lee customizes each procedure to suit your body and aesthetic goals. With a focus on both artistry and precision, the use of saline or silicone implants ensures a personalized approach, offering a fuller, more contoured breast profile while maintaining a natural look and feel.
Breast Procedures
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances the size and shape of the breasts using saline or silicone implants to restore volume lost through aging, pregnancy, or weight loss. The procedure improves symmetry, fullness, and contour, and may also be part of breast reconstruction after mastectomy. With over 30 years of surgical experience and a strong artistic background, Dr. Lee delivers natural-looking results tailored to each patient’s goals.
Breast Reduction
Body Contouring
Body contouring encompasses a range of procedures designed to sculpt and refine the body by addressing stubborn fat deposits and loose skin that resist diet and exercise. Whether you’re looking to reduce localized fat or tighten the skin after significant weight loss, Dr. Shinji Lee offers tailored treatments such as liposuction and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to achieve long-lasting, natural-looking results. With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Lee combines her artistic vision and surgical expertise to help patients achieve a more harmonious and proportionate body shape.
Body Contouring
Liposuction
Liposuction is a highly effective procedure for removing localized fat from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, and neck. Dr. Lee employs various liposuction techniques, carefully selecting the method that best suits your goals. The procedure involves small incisions through which a cannula is inserted to gently break down and suction out fat cells. As these fat cells are permanently removed, the body’s contour is reshaped for a slimmer, more toned appearance. Liposuction can be performed independently or combined with other body contouring procedures to enhance overall results.
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, is designed to address excess, loose skin and weakened abdominal muscles, often caused by pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging. Dr. Lee offers both full and mini tummy tucks, depending on the extent of correction needed. A full tummy tuck involves a horizontal incision to tighten the abdominal muscles and remove excess skin, while a mini tummy tuck targets the lower abdomen with a shorter incision and faster recovery. For comprehensive results, liposuction may also be performed to eliminate fat pockets before the skin is redraped and sutured.
