Facial plastic surgery refers to various cosmetic surgery treatments used to improve the appearance of a patient's face. If you have sagging facial skin or asymmetrical facial features or would like to look younger and more energetic, these surgical treatments may be the right option for you. Below is a brief description of some common facial plastic surgery options which we also offer at our practice.
Facelift
A
facelift is a cosmetic surgery procedure performed to reduce the appearance of sagging skin and wrinkles on a person's face. During the procedure, the plastic surgeon makes a series of discrete incisions around the ear area and along the hairline through which excess tissue is removed and the skin is tightened.
Rhinoplasty
A
rhinoplasty is a surgery designed to address the size, shape, and even the respiratory effectiveness of the nose. During a rhinoplasty, the plastic surgeon will make precise and discrete incisions in the nose in order to address these structural and balance issues.
Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery
Cosmetic eyelid surgery is performed in order to address sagging or wrinkling that occurs with the upper eyelids or lower eyelids. This surgery is particularly important if sagging eyelids impeded a person's ability to see. The procedure will vary depending on the eyelid operated on.
Thread Lift
A
Thread Lift is an alternative to traditional facelift surgery. During a Thread Lift procedure, a series of thin threads are placed under the skin through discrete incisions. These threads are attached to underlying facial tissue and pulled back in order to tighten and smooth out the appearance of the face.
