Recently, I talked about Facelifts because we’re heading into fall when I get lots of questions about the different kinds of Facelifts and what they can and cannot achieve. See my recent Facelift (Rhytidectomy) blog for a review of this information.
Forehead Brow Lifts are often done along with a Facelift…to get maximum results. Forehead/Browlift addresses the lines, wrinkles and furrows that appear in the “upper 1/3 of the face” as we age. Typically caused by loss of volume…fat loss, breakdown of collagen and elastin and other factors…you see them as Crow’s Feet, forehead furrows and excessive wrinkles.
Men and Women today are getting FaceLifts and Forehead Brow lifts to restore a more youthful appearance to the middle and upper facial areas. Chin Augmentation with lipo sculpting of the neck area deals with the lower 1/3 of face.
I often incorporate Fat Grafting, using your own natural fat, in with the lifting procedure to fill hollows with long lasting, natural looking results. This puts fat back where it used to be before the unwelcome “downward descent” that’s part of normal aging occurs.
So here’s what you get with a Forehead/Brow lift:
- Lift 5,10…even 15 years off your face
- Look more vibrant…and several years younger
- Men & women of all ages & stages have it done
- Smoothes out excess wrinkles, crow’s feet, furrows etc.
- Add back natural Fat to restore shape & contour
- Advanced techniques/technologies mean less downtime
I believe that all surgery should restore function and natural beauty with as little trauma and downtime as possible. My patients agree that the techniques I use get them back to normal faster with less discomfort than with older methods.
More and more people are realizing that if they start doing “small” procedures early enough (late 30’s and 40’s) they can block the need for invasive ones later…often surgery is not needed. I help you decide what’s best for you.
I’m frequently asked: “Do Men get facelifts?” YES –more men today are getting every type of cosmetic procedure for various reasons (another blog).
THE BOTTOM LINE: There comes a time when surgical Facelift is the only right answer. When that time comes – you have options! Fall is when men and women get serious about these issues. Let’s talk more!
