Dr. Richard Rival is a board-certified Toronto facial plastic surgeon enhancing the looks and lives of women and men in Ontario, Canada. Dr. Rival offers a full spectrum of face lift procedures and injectable treatments, in addition to his highly popular options for rhinoplasty. Other surgical options include eyelid surgery and facial implant procedures.
Toronto rhinoplasty and facial enhancement patients often choose Dr. Rival based on his extensive experience, patient-centered approach, and superior surgical results. He also enjoys a particularly high number of referrals from past patients.
Dr. Rival’s Credentials
Dr. Rival has trained extensively to offer highly accurate cosmetic and reconstructive facial procedures. A few of his qualifications include:
- Graduated with honours from the University of Toronto Medical School
- Board-certified by both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology
- Received extensive training at both the University of California, Los Angeles and the University of Toronto, including a year of craniofacial surgery research
- Frequently instructs other surgeons through both the University of Toronto’s surgical program and an annual instructional course for other facial surgeons from Canada and the United States.
Rhinoplasty by a Toronto Facial Plastic Surgeon
Family traits or injury can create a nose shape that does not balance well with the rest of your face. Dr. Rival has spent years honing his technique in order to offer superior Toronto rhinoplasty results. In each procedure he uses the most current techniques to refine his patient’s nose shape and create results that harmonize naturally with the rest of their facial features.
Dr. Rival takes the time to perform a thorough examination and discuss your options fully before you settle on any one approach. During your consultation he will take a series of photos of your face and use these to create 3-D computer imaging that can preview your new look and help you clarify your goals.
Many of Dr. Rival’s patients choose to undergo rhinoplasty to:
- Reduce the size of an overly large nose
- Level or reshape a drooping nose tip
- Minimize a prominent nasal “hump”
- Correct the shape of a nose that appears severely crooked due to injury or genetics
- Restore a more functional form to a nose that, because of its shape, inhibits breathing or speech
- Improve the apparent length of the nose
- Restore a more balanced and attractive look to the face overall
Dr. Rival performs both open and closed rhinoplasty, as well as revision rhinoplasty to correct or refine the work of other Toronto facial plastic surgeons.
Face Lift for Toronto Patients
In addition to rhinoplasty, Dr. Rival also performs a high number of Toronto face lift procedures. Face lifts, which are increasingly popular with men as well as women, restore a younger look to the face by repositioning sagging facial muscles and tightening facial tissues that have begun to loosen and sag. In the process, Dr. Rival also can remove excess skin and fat to create a smoother, tighter look.
Dr. Rival has the skill to create great results while hiding the obvious signs of your face lift, so you can be confident that your results will look smooth and natural.
Enhancements for the Eyes and Skin
Aging, weight loss, or changes to your skin chemistry can cause the tissues around your eyes to sag, resulting in an angry or tired look. Dr. Rival offers eyelid surgery and brow lift procedures to reverse signs of aging around the eyes and upper face.
Often, Dr. Rival’s patients will enjoy particularly pleasing results from a combination of surgical and nonsurgical procedures to smooth the skin. Injectable treatments include BOTOX® Cosmetic and fillers such as Restylane®, Artecoll®, Dermalive®, and Dermadeep®.
