Facial Rejuvenation

 

FACIAL REJUVENATION;
 
Facial rejuvenation has become the most common self image booster.  Woman will spend an excessive amount of money and time on improving their appearance.  The face and eyes are obviously the most noticeable part of  the man and woman and is also the first to show signs of aging.  Due to the extensive study of the sun and the effects of the sun on the face and the increased amount of skin cancers in todays population, skin care has become an important part of every persons life.    Starting with a good skin regimen  will certainly delay the effects of  aging of the skin tissues.  Sun damaged skin may also be reversed with the appropriate regimen of skin care.  Skin care products such as Retin-A , Glycoloic and Lactic acids will improve the texture and color of the sun damaged skin.  A new product containing Niacin has been proven to diminish the sun damaged skin as well as penetrating and changing the collagen of the skin.  We have been very pleased with the results of  these products. 
 
Of course dramatic changes to the face and neck require excision of skin, eyelid tucks, and face lifting procedures.  These procedures can be performed together or separately depending upon each persons individual needs.  These procedures along with the skin care products will enable the man and woman of today to maintain healthy younger looking skin.
 
Face lifting procedures can be performed using multiple different types of incisions, depending upon the age and the texture of the skin.  The less invasive procedure of Contour Thread lift has become an excellent form of face lifting for the younger patients 35 to 55 years of age who require very small amounts of skin tightening.  This procedure has also become important in assisting with a full face lifting procedure. 
 
Liposuction may be used in conjunction with face lifting procedures are well.  Contouring of the face and neck where minimal amounts of fat may be removed.  Reinjection of the patient’s own fat may also be needed to fill in cheek, neck or lips if needed.
 
Each patient is evaluated for their own individual needs.  Some patients require minimal skin rejuvenation to obtain a cosmetically appealing appearance.  Other patients may require total facial skin and surgical rejuvenation.
