Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty is the general term for surgery of the eyelids. Upper blepharoplasty removes excess skin from the upper eyelids and lower blepharoplasty targets the lower eyelid and under-eye area to reduce bagginess.
​
Patients with loose, baggy upper eyelids or undereye bags may look older and more tired. Eyelid skin becomes thinner and baggy due to aging (dermatochalasis), and blepharoplasty helps the eyes look more rested and brighter by removing baggy skin, repositioning bulging fat, and tightening lax muscles in the upper or lower eyelids.
Face & Neck Skin Rejuvenation
Dr. Chang offers surgical as well as minimally invasive treatments for the face and neck. Face and neck contouring creates more defined facial characteristics and a younger, brighter appearance. Dr. Chang is an expert with the Morpheus8 system, which utilizes microneedling with radiofrequency energy to improve skin texture, skin tightening, and stimulating collagen production.
Non-Surgical Rejuvenation
Neurotoxins (Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, Jeuveau®), dermal fillers (Restylane® and Juvederm® family of products and others like Belotero®, Radiesse®, Sculptra®, Versa®), lipo-dissolving agents, and vein sclerosis are some of the nonsurgical rejuvenation tools Dr. Chang has at her disposal. The aesthetic power of these tools lay in their masterful use by an expert who uses the minimal product to achieve maximum benefit, combining products for a synergistic and balanced effect (and helps avoid complications and saves money for patients).
Brow & Forehead Lift
Dr. Chang combines muscle modulators (Botox®, for example) and volumizing agents to revolutionize treatment of the aging forehead. Surgery, however, remains the most powerful way to lift the forehead, with precise control of tissues and longer lasting results. Various surgical approaches including small incision direct brow lift, endoscopic forehead lift, or pretrichial forehead lift may be used. Brow and forehead surgery are usually performed in conjunction with eyelid and facelift surgeries to create a balanced rejuvenative effect across the face. They can, however, be used in isolation to address gravitational descent, create symmetry of facial features, and improve functional imbalance following facial palsy.
Reconstructive Surgery

Coming to plastic surgery from a background of microsurgical training in ophthalmology, Dr. Chang is an expert in the treatment of eyelid and orbital disease. Dr. Chang’s reconstructive surgery practice includes removal of eyelid growths, repair of Mohs (skin cancer surgery) defects, treatment of tear duct obstruction, removal of orbital tumors, orbital fracture repair, and rehabilitative surgery in patients with thyroid eye disease.
Fat Transfer
Fat transfer is a powerful way to replenish youthful volume to the face without the need for repeated synthetic filler injections. The fat is suctioned from the abdomen or thighs through small hidden incisions, immediately processed, then injected into the desired location. Facial fat transfer is commonly performed at the same time as other facial procedures to achieve utmost rejuvenation, but can also be used in patients who suffer from post-traumatic deformities or disease-induced lipoatrophy.
