Services
Facelift
Facelift surgery addresses visible signs of aging by tightening skin and underlying tissues to create a more youthful appearance. Ideal for patients seeking to reduce wrinkles and sagging, this procedure enhances facial contours while maintaining natural expressions. Our approach prioritizes long-lasting results with minimal scarring through advanced surgical techniques.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty improves nasal proportions and function by reshaping the bridge, tip, or nostrils. This procedure addresses congenital defects, injury-related deformities, or breathing impairments while maintaining facial harmony. Our technique focuses on achieving balanced aesthetics and structural integrity through precise cartilage and bone modification.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances size and shape using implants or fat transfer techniques. This procedure addresses volume loss, asymmetry, or post-pregnancy changes while improving body proportions. Our approach emphasizes natural-looking results through customized implant selection and meticulous placement techniques.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes localized fat deposits from areas like the abdomen, thighs, and neck to improve body contours. This procedure targets diet-resistant fat while preserving surrounding tissues. Our method uses advanced techniques to ensure smooth results and accelerated recovery through minimally invasive approaches.
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty corrects drooping eyelids and under-eye bags by removing excess skin and fat. This procedure rejuvenates the eye area, improving both appearance and vision in cases of severe hooding. Our technique focuses on creating alert, youthful eyes while maintaining natural eyelid function.

I recently had surgery for Microtia and it's only been a month and I'm already so happy! I thank god that I took my time to really look into the best doctor there is in New York and I'm so happy I was able to find Dr.Thorne after he was recommended to me! Leading up to the surgery Dr.Thorne made sure I was comfortable and he always made sure that any questions I had were answered. The day of the surgery the staff and him included were so sweet and made my experience ten times better! If you have microtia and are looking for a surgeon he is the one to go too! I'm so happy and

As a child I was ridiculed for the protrusion and enormity of my ears. When I was in my teen and young adult years I learned to style my hair to partially cover them though I was never able to tie my hair back or wear a ponytail like the other girls. At the beach or a pool I was reluctant to get my hair wet as it would only make them appear larger. After a cancer diagnosis six years ago and chemotherapy treatments I lost all of my hair and had to rely on wigs to cover my ears while out in public. My head size is very small and my ears appeared even more acutely disproportionate. My hair never grew

I have always had very large ears. They don't stick out, they were just very long and my earlobes were quite large as well. It was virtually impossible to find a doctor with experience in ear reduction surgery until I found Dr. Thorne. He was a godsend. He did a beautiful job reducing the size of my ears and I have never been happier. I highly recommend Dr. Thorne. He is an expert when it comes to ears.
