Face
Lift
Aging
of the face is inevitable, and with time the skin of the face
and neck loosen. Age, sun exposure, gravity, and genetics
all contribute to skin changes. Fine lines become
wrinkles, and gradually deeper folds. The jaw line softens
into jowls, and beneath the chin excess skin starts to sag.
As the aging population grows, it is no wonder why facelifting
has become the third most performed facial cosmetic procedure.
If you ever wondered how a facelift or “Rhytidectomy” could
improve your looks you need to know how it is performed and what
to expect.
Blepharoplasty (Eye Lift)
Droopy
upper eyelids and puffy bags under the eyes can make you look
older and more tired than you feel. Blepharoplasty
or eyelid surgery is the most commonly performed facial plastic
surgical procedure. By removing small amounts of excess
skin and fat one can transform the eyelid region to a more
youthful and refreshed look. If you are wondering how
eyelid surgery can improve your appearance, you need to know how
the surgery is performed and what to expect.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty
can change the size of your nose (smaller or bigger), take off a
hump, change the shape of the tip, narrow the span of the
nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper
lip. It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help
relieve some breathing problems by straitening the septum. There
are so many possible ways to change the appearance of the nose
that it is important that you have a specific idea of what you
would like corrected.
In
general, the nose takes its shape from the cartilage and bony
framework that underlies the skin. This delicate relationship
between these structures is what is altered during the reshaping
process. Incisions are very well hidden inside the nose,
and occasionally, a small incision is made in the shadow line
under the nose. By removing, adding, or changing the position of
the cartilages, bones and soft tissue, your desired nose shape
can be achieved.
Brow
Lift
A
forehead lift or "browlift" is a procedure that
restores a more youthful, refreshed, and cheery look to the
forehead, eye brows and upper eyelid areas. By removing excess
skin and muscle, the procedure corrects drooping brows,
improves the horizontal lines and furrows that can make you look
angry, sad or tired, and tightening the skin of the upper
eyelid. The incisions are well hidden along the frontal hairline
or in the hair, and with the use of an endoscope (a small camera
that allows the procedure to be performed with minimal
incisions), the incisions are almost impossible to see. The
particular type of incision to be used is dependent on your
goals and desires. Also, a forehead lift is often performed in
conjunction with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a facelift
to provide a smoother, overall balanced look to the eyes and
face.
