A C-tuck is a procedure that's the subject of a lot of media buzz recently. It involves undergoing a tummy tuck immediately after a scheduled cesarean (C-section) delivery. For some mothers, it may seem like combining a C-section with a tummy tuck would be an ideal shortcut. But there are several problems with this idea. …
Social downtime refers to the period after surgery when visible signs such as swelling or bruising have resolved enough for you to feel comfortable attending social events. Many facelift patients at my Toronto practice feel comfortable returning to work a couple of weeks after their procedure. But they may feel less confident about attending a …
I once answered a question on the RealSelf website from someone who wanted to know if she would be better off getting lower eyelid surgery or nonsurgical laser skin resurfacing to improve the hollow appearance under her eyes. The answer, in my opinion, is to consider the best approach in each specific situation. When I …

Experience matters in eyelid surgery because the eyelids involve delicate anatomy where small adjustments can affect both appearance and function. The eyes are the focal point of the face and play a key role in the way we come across to others. When drooping eyelids cause you to appear tired or worn, expertly performed eyelid …
Age isn’t the ultimate factor when it comes to determining if you’re ready for a facelift. The more relevant considerations are the issues each patient is dealing with and whether a facelift is the most effective, long-lasting way to treat them. When I meet with patients considering a facelift at my Toronto practice, they often …
For many new moms, the bulging, hanging skin and fat in the lower abdomen can be a frustrating area to correct post-pregnancy. Try as they might to tone the area with diet and exercise, the panniculus can be exceptionally stubborn. This is because the area is primarily made up of loose skin that can often …
Many women who seek breast augmentation actually need a breast lift as well. When the breast skin has stretched and the nipple sits low on the breast, implants alone cannot correct sagging or restore a youthful breast shape. In my Toronto practice, this can be a difficult conversation at first. It’s common to assume that …
