More about Dr. Robert Tower, MD
Robert N. Tower, MD is board certified and fellowship trained as an oculofacial plastic surgeon. He is a fellow of the prestigious American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS) with fewer than 500 fellows nationwide.
Past director of the University of Washington’s Oculoplastic and Orbital Surgery, Doctor Tower translated into private practice in Portland in 2010. He provides the full scope of his discipline: specializing in performing aesthetic eyelid and facial surgery and injectables; along with orbital and lacrimal surgery.
“Modern approaches to eyelid and facial surgery must align with the goals and lifestyles of today’s active patients," says Dr. Tower. "Less is often more; and any downtime is almost too much.”
Dr. Tower continues, “As understanding of the aging process advances, today’s surgeon must combine elements in the rapidly expanding armory to provide a customized and fabulous outcome. Elegant surgical maneuvers when assisted with judicious use of toxin therapy and volumizing injectables can really make a powerful impact in one’s appearance and self-image.”
