Facial plastic surgery covers a wide range of procedures aimed at changing or restoring the structure and appearance of the face and neck. That includes surgical work like rhinoplasty, facelifts, neck lifts, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), brow lifts, chin and cheek implants, as well as reconstructive work after injury or for functional issues like a deviated septum. It's distinct from non-surgical treatments (Botox, fillers, laser resurfacing), though many practices in Richmond Hill offer both under one roof. We've catalogued 15 providers in this category, ranging from surgeons who focus almost entirely on facial work to broader plastic surgery practices that include the face alongside body procedures.
What to look for before booking
Board certification matters more than marketing photos. In Ontario, you want a surgeon certified by the Royal College in plastic surgery or otolaqrringology-head and neck surgery, with specific training and a track record in facial procedures. Ask to see before-and-after photos of patients with a similar face shape or concern to yours, not just the best-case gallery on the website. Find out where the surgery happens (accredited hospital or surgical facility versus an office-based suite), who administers anesthesia, and what the revision policy is if you're not happy with healing results. A good consultation should include a honest conversation about limitations, not just a sales pitch.
How our scoring works
Our ranking weighs credentials, patient feedback, transparency around pricing and consultations, and consistency of results across cases rather than a single flashy outcome.
