What is oculoplastics?
Oculoplastics is a subspecialty involving the delicate tissues and planes of the face, particularly the eyelids, under-eye area, forehead and mid-face. It requires meticulous technique and a keen aesthetic eye. Janice enjoys the challenge of enhancing her patients’ natural beauty with a personalised approach and a light touch. She has particular expertise in advanced techniques for rejuvenating the area around the eyes, cheeks, brow and sculpting of the lower face.
