Surgical
Facelift
Over time, the long-term effects of gravity, exposure to sun, dry air, and general stress takes its toll on our faces. Deep creases appear beside the mouth, the jaw line loses contour, and folds and fat deposits appear on the neck. A facelift can considerably reduce these signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening the underlying muscles, and redraping the skin around the neck and face.
Facelifts can be done as a single procedure, or frequently performed in conjunction with another procedure such as a browlift, upper and lower eyelid surgery, midface lift and fat grafting. If your problem areas are limited to the neck, a necklift will be recommended. In many cases, a facelift can reduce the outward signs of aging by ten or more years.
Browlift
A
browlift
is used to correct a drooping brow or forehead, helping you look less angry, sad or tired. The procedure creates a refreshed, younger appearance to the forehead area above and around the eyes. A forehead lift procedure elevates the brow and refreshes the upper part of your face by tightening the tissue and muscles of your forehead.
Browlifts are usually performed using an endoscope which enables the procedure to be performed with a minimal number of incisions all hidden in the hairline. This procedure is commonly combined with facelift and blepharoplasty to improve the appearance of the whole face. Ask your Doctor his recommendation.
Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is designed to remove excess skin and fat or muscle from the upper and lower eyelids to open the eyes and enhance their appearance. It can be performed for functional loss of vision and for cosmetic reasons. The procedure can correct drooping upper lids with excess skin and lower lids that have fat bulging and early aging, or a tired appearance. Upper lid surgery can be performed in the office and usually takes only about 1 hour.
Lower Eyelid surgery is more complex surgery and can be done in a surgical setting, taking about 90 minutes. Blepharoplasty can be done as a single procedure, or in conjunction with other facial surgery such as a facelift or a browlift.
Liposuction of neck
When the tumescent technique is used in the liposuction of your neck and chin, the areas of fat are injected with an anesthetic which causes the fat to become swollen, or “tumesced”. The resulting expanded molecules make the fat particles easier to remove. You will begin to notice the difference in your new look almost immediately after surgery.
The tumescent method results in less post-operative bruising, swelling and pain. A significant improvement in your appearance is apparent within 3 weeks of your surgery, when most of the swelling has subsided.
Rhinoplasty or Nasal Surgery
Surgery to reshape the nose, can reduce or increase the size of the nose, remove an unwanted hump, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the width of the nostrils, or change the angle between the nose and the upper lip. The procedure is also used to correct problems resulting from injury and can help relieve certain breathing difficulties
