Looking through facial cosmetic choices might set off a range of emotions, from pure nervousness to interest. Seattle’s West Coast Face understands this and has made his career out of doing surgeries that strike a mix between medical knowledge and simple communication with a bit of reassurance.

Among the most often asked for treatments is rhinoplasty. People visit for a variety of reasons: respiratory problems, an old injury, or simply a little better nose fit for their face. Unlike cookie-cutter outcomes, Dr. Shvidler’s method emphasizes small gains. When the only comments patients get following surgery are along the lines of, “You look refreshed!” they are relieved.

Also quite popular is eyelid surgery—blepharoplasty. Even after a good night’s sleep, drooping lids or persistent under-eye bags might make you feel just plain exhausted or older than your years. Patients of Dr. Shvidler often report that this somewhat short repair helps them look more awake; occasionally, this results in years off without anybody fully knowing why.

Tired of looking at a double chin during Zoom calls? Particularly popular are neck lifts and lower face rejuvenation. Dr. Shvidler’s delicate touch helps sagging or flabby skin to look firmer, sharper. The end effect is the “you” lying under the gradual clock of time or the pressures of life, not a brand-new face.

He does not minimize the importance of non-surgical choices. Like Botox and hyaluronic acid, injectables and fillers can augment lost volume with little downtime or smooth out difficult wrinkles. Some patients show up during lunch breaks and return to their daily business without anyone knowing.

Another area of expertise is otoplasty—ear reshaping—especially for adults and children who have been self-conscious for years. Sometimes a barely noticeable adjustment reveals a whole fresh degree of confidence.

Not only is Dr. Shvidler technically excellent, but he also has a natural sense of listening and matching the correct treatment to the correct client. Neither assembly line nor hard sale. One meticulous operation at a time can make you feel like yourself only better.
