Dr. Rabinowitz is able to enhance or refine areas of the face and neck for both women and men using surgical procedures and chemical treatments. Corrections can also be made for congenital deformities (birth defects) and abnormalities resulting from accidents or disease.
 Frown lines above our noses and in the middle of your forehead will give you an unwanted older appearance. Under stress and as we age, we tend to make faces that encourage the creases, giving us the serious, unhappy look.
A brow lift eliminates these lines and is one of the only procedures that allows a plastic surgeon to access the hard to reach muscles that cause furrow lines.
This is a procedure that can be done endoscopically with minimal incisions which are well hidden.

 As we age, our face changes. Skin loses its elasticity. Skin begins to bunch in several locations. Muscular bands become more apparent. A face-lift can help restore the look of your youth by selectively canceling out those features which signify age. The cheeks are elevated, folds are flattened, jowls tightened, the neck is redraped, and excess skin is removed. Your appearance is not replaced, but a younger appearance is restored.
There are several variations of face-lifts. Skin-only face-lifts were popular many years ago and are still used in select situations. Intermediate depth face lifts achieve their lift at deeper levels. Deep plane face lifts strive to achieve these changes just above the bones of the face. The incisions are made just in front of the ear and wrap around the back of the ear and hide within the hairline. The anatomy of the face is defined. Muscles and connective tissues are tightened, excess skin is redraped and removed. The next day, dressings are removed. Sutures are removed over a period of days as you heal. The amount of swelling that you may get is variable, but you can resume most normal activities within a week and should show very few signs of your procedure by three weeks.

A neck lift is performed to remove excess fat beneath the chin and tighten loose skin in the neck. A less invasive alternative to a facelift, the procedure can produce dramatic results in the patient whose chin and/or neck has sagged with age or after weight loss.

 The nose is the most prominent feature of the human face. For many people, it is simply a part of their good looks and rarely merits a second thought.
For countless others, the nose is an almost constant source of embarrassment. Today, however, plastic surgery can correct a multitude of faults. Rhinoplasty can shorten, tilt up, build up or straighten. Rhinoplasty can make the most prominent feature on your face a permanent source of pride. It can give you a whole new appearance and a new outlook on life.
Rhinoplasties are individualized to meet the patient's needs and expectations. All rhinoplasties are performed through predominantly internal incisions and usually include an improvement of the nasal tip, straightening of the dorsum and adjustment of the bony nasal skeleton. These procedures may be performed as an open procedure with a small externally visible incision through the columella (base of nose) or may be performed as a closed procedure where all of the incisions are hidden. Different advantages exist in either approach. The choice is usually left to the discretion of your plastic surgeon.

Full and vivacious lips have always been recognized as aesthetically important features. Some of us however, are born with thin, ill-defined lips, but the appearance of our lips are now within our control. During this procedure a piece of tissue is borrowed from somewhere in your body and grafted into one or both lips.

Otoplasty or ear pinback is done to correct protruding ears. It happens to be one of the few cosmetic surgeries performed on children.
An incision is placed in the natural creases behind the ear and the cartilage of the ear is weakened so that it bends into a new shape. The cartilage is also stitched into position to hold the ear into position.
Recovery normally takes one to two weeks and results can be noticed after many months.

 Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is designed to remove excess skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. The procedure can correct drooping upper lids that tend to sag with time and the puffy bags below the eyes. The procedure usually takes about 45 minutes and can be performed in the office using local anesthesia. Stitches can be removed after three or four days. Blepharoplasty can be done as a single procedure, or in conjunction with other facial surgery such as a facelift or a browlift.
