Facial Rejuvenation
Our approach to facial rejuvenation is different from the standard facelift. We perform a specialized facial rejuvenation that is artistically tailored for each patient's individual needs and desires. Our specialty is to give each patient a very natural and more rested, youthful appearance.
Facial rejuvenation can't stop the aging process. What it can do is "turn back the clock," improving the most visible signs of aging by removing excess fat from the neck and jowl area, tightening and lifting underlying tissues back into a more youthful position, sculpting, enhancing cheek bones, and redraping the skin of your face and neck. Facial rejuvenation is done under intravenous sedation with an overnight stay in a recovery facility with our private nurse. Bruising and swelling decrease to a "socially acceptable" level in 2 to 3 weeks. The result is evident in 4 to 6 weeks, or sooner, with continued improvement for several months.
Additional procedures that would enhance the result are: forehead rejuvenation, eyelid surgery, nose reshaping, earlobe reduction, or placement of fat into areas of the face to enhance lips, cheeks and jawlines or to fill in deep creases.
