Washington Facial Plastic Surgery and Rejuvenation Center employs board-certified physicians who focus exclusively on surgical/non-surgical (this sounds confusing) facial cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery. At our offices in Bellevue and Issaquah, Washington, we customize a treatment plan in line with your wishes to achieve results that appear natural and balanced.
Our Services
We offer the highest level of care, ranging from simple in-office procedures to comprehensive surgical rejuvenation under general anesthesia, complete with board-certified anesthesiologists in a fully accredited modern ambulatory surgical center. This range of services allows us to provide optimal flexibility for our patients in a very safe and discreet setting. We value each patient’s individual goals and work hard to achieve natural, balanced results. Our board-certified plastic surgeons customize a plan for facial rejuvenation based on your wishes and available downtime.
Surgical Rejuvenation
Here at Washington Facial Plastic Surgery and Rejuvenation Center, we offer a complete range of facial plastic surgery services, ranging from minimally invasive, “in and out” office procedures to complete facial rejuvenation makeovers.
Otoplasty
Otoplasty is a cosmetic procedure used to change the position, shape, or size of the ear using permanent sutures.
The primary indication for otoplasty is to correct prominauris, or protruding ears.
Patients are born with varying sizes and shapes to the ear. Sometimes the ear can protrude more than normal. Otoplasty utilizes a small incision hidden behind the ear in combination with suture sculpturing to provide an improved appearance to the ear. For children, waiting until 5 years of age is recommended to avoid affecting the growth of the ear. For children, general anesthesia is recommended; adults can have the procedure under local anesthesia.
Whether your nose is larger than you prefer, has undergone trauma or injury, is shaped oddly from a birth defect, or is causing breathing issues, we can help with a rhinoplasty (nose reshaping).
Anesthesia: Typically most rhinoplasty cases are performed under general anesthesia.
Incision: Rhinoplasty can be performed either with all the incisions inside the nose or with a tiny incision at the bottom of the nose.
Sutures: Incisions are hidden in the contours of the nose so that they won’t be noticeable. We use extremely fine sutures to close the nose and take a very cautious and meticulous approach to the closure of the incision.
Recovery: While everyone heals at different rates, the average recovery time for a rhinoplasty is 14 to 21 days. At that time, most of the normal swelling and bruising will have dissipated.
Dr. Lee customizes each procedure to meet each of his patient’s needs. With this approach, his results look natural and beautiful. Patients do not look pulled, stretched, or artificial.
It is important to choose the correct kind of procedure with blepharoplasty because over-resection of fat can lead to an improved cosmetic appearance in the short term, but lead to a hollowed, aged appearance years later.
Blepharoplasty is often combined with a brow or mid-face lift to maximize rejuvenation in the periorbital region. In addition, laser resurfacing of the skin can help remove fine wrinkling, which is difficult to correct with surgery alone. Botox and Dysport are also useful adjunctive treatments.
Anesthesia: A blepharoplasty can be performed under any kind of anesthesia depending on your personal preference.
Incision: The incisions are hidden in the natural creases of the eyelid or can be performed inside the eyelid.
Recovery: While everyone heals at different rates, the average recovery time for a blepharoplasty is 7 to 14 days. At that time, most of the normal swelling and bruising will have dissipated.
Reduces the wrinkle lines that develop horizontally across the forehead, as well as those that occur on the bridge of the nose, between the eyes, Improves frown lines, the vertical creases that develop between the eyebrows, raises sagging brows that are hooding the upper eyelids, places the eyebrows in an alert and youthful position.
Here at Washington Facial Plastic Surgery and Rejuvenation Center, we offer a wide-range of non-surgical facial rejuvenation services. Many of the following procedures require little to no downtime and are often combined to enhance results. Our non-surgical facelift procedures include injectable fillers and state-of-the-art laser/light therapy.
Our surgeons work with you to customize a non-surgical facelift plan that works with your schedule to achieve the desired natural results.
BOTOX & Dysport
Wrinkles occur over time due to constant contraction of muscles in our face where they insert into the skin. In small amounts, botulinum toxins such as Botox and Dysport act to temporarily reduce muscle activity in problem areas—and thus diminish wrinkles and creases. Botox and Dysport are extremely safe and can target multiple areas in the face, treating frown lines, forehead wrinkles, periorbital wrinkles (crow’s feet), bands in the neck, and drooping mouth corners.
While anesthesia is not typically required for Botox and Dysport injections, we often use anesthetic cream to eliminate any potential discomfort from the injection(s). While everyone heals differently, most patients can return to their normal lifestyle the same day or the day following treatment, with minimal swelling or bruising. Botox and Dysport will take up to a week to take effect and generally last for three to four months before gradually wearing off.
If you do not have wrinkles currently, Botox and Dysport can help prevent them from ever forming. We customize the amount of Botox or Dysport we use in each patient, as each patient will require differing amounts to be effective.
We often combine Botox or Dysport with other invasive and noninvasive treatments for the desired, natural result. It should be noted that Botox or Dysport may not help patients with severe, deep wrinkles. Other treatment modalities can be utilized in these circumstances.
For more information about Botox or Dysport, please contact our office in either Bellevue or Issaquah, WA today.
Reconstructive Surgery: Facial Reconstruction
We perform an extensive amount of reconstructive surgery for congenital deformities or facial anomalies, scar revision, skin cancer reconstruction (Mohs surgery), and trauma. These cases are often very challenging and can range from nasal or facial fractures to complex total facial reconstruction. Having a surgeon who performs both reconstructive and cosmetic surgery gives a patient the highest level of care possible.

“I cannot recommend Dr. Lee highly enough. If you are considering any cosmetic procedure, I urge you to meet with him. His professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for his patients sets him apart from the rest. Dr. Lee is not just a skilled surgeon; he is a compassionate and kind individual who is truly dedicated to helping his patients achieve their desired results.”
Dr. Adrienne Laury Reviews
In a great coincidence, Dr. Laury was already tending to my son’s health with great care, and her office happened to be next door to the master aesthetician I saw for my skin. When I learned that Dr. Laury provided facial injections, I didn’t hesitate to see her and have been highly satisfied for several years. She knows just the right recipe for me and the fresh look I want. Plus, she is super sweet as well!
Dr. Laury couldn’t be more pleasant providing Botox treatments for my “angry elevens” over the last three years. I highly recommend her.
