As we age, the effects of time and gravity eventually result in deteriorating muscle tone and loss of skin elasticity with loss of facial volume. The degree of changes is dependent upon genetics, sun damage, smoking, weight and general health. Facial surgeries will help to restore more youthful facial contours. The more common procedures include:
to reduce sagging of the mid and lower face, jowls, and neck. Learn more here.
improves the appearance of upper and/or lower eyelids. Learn more here.
Also known as a Forehead Lift, this procedure elevates the brows and softens forehead creases. Now often treated with Botox and fillers. Learn more here.
tightens muscle in anterior and lateral neck, often with some fatty tissue removal, usually as part of a facelift surgery.
Separate from the aging process, the appearance of your face is determined by three basic components: skin, soft tissues and underlying facial bones. Common problems of disproportionate facial structure and a surgical procedure to help contour include:
Undesirable nose shape: Nose surgery (rhinoplasty) Learn more here
Protruding ears: Ear surgery (otoplasty) Learn more here
Recessed chin: Chin surgery (mentoplasty)
Flat cheeks: augmented with structural fat transfers |
