Cosmetic Brow/Forehead Lift
Cosmetic browlift procedures, also known as forehead lifts, are designed to elevate and rejuvenate the brow area, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance. By repositioning the brow, these procedures can help diminish forehead wrinkles, smooth out frown lines, and address sagging or drooping brows. If you are a candidate, these can be performed using minimally invasive techniques such as endoscopic or temporal browlifts, offering shorter recovery times and reduced scarring compared to traditional open surgeries. The outcome of a browlift procedure can enhance facial symmetry, restore a more alert and youthful expression, and provide a subtle yet significant improvement in your overall facial aesthetics.
Heavy Upper Lids: Ptosis Repair & Upper Blepharoplasty
Ptosis drooping is due to weakness in the muscle that is responsible for lifting the upper eyelid. Ptosis can occur in children and adults. Children with ptosis are generally born with the condition due to the muscle not developing properly prior to birth. Adults with ptosis generally acquire the condition when the muscle becomes overstretched through time. Adult ptosis is generally due to aging, excessive eye rubbing, long-term use of contact lenses or excessive, heavy skin putting weight on the muscle. Ptosis drooping is corrected by an eyelid surgery called ptosis repair. The incisions are placed within the natural creases of the eyelid and usually heal without noticeable scarring.
Lower Lid Blepharoplasty
Lower lid blepharoplasty, also known as lower eyelid surgery or lower lid bag removal, is a cosmetic procedure performed to address issues such as under-eye bags, excess skin, wrinkles, and puffiness in the lower eyelid area. During the procedure, incisions are made either inside the lower eyelid (transconjunctival approach) to access and remove excess fat, tighten the underlying muscles, and trim or reposition the skin. This helps to achieve a smoother and more rejuvenated appearance. Lower lid blepharoplasty can effectively reduce the signs of aging, improve facial harmony, and restore a more refreshed and youthful look to the eyes.
Neuromodulators: Botox and Xeomin
Botox or Xeomin, called botulinum toxins, are popular non-surgical treatments that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkles. By blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, Botox smooths out these wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The effects of Botox injections typically last for several months before gradually wearing off.
Fillers
Facial fillers, also known as dermal fillers, are injectable substances that are used to restore volume and enhance facial contours. These fillers are typically composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body. They can be strategically injected into areas such as the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and under-eye hollows to replenish lost volume, reduce wrinkles, and create a more youthful appearance. The results of facial fillers are immediate, and the effects can last for several months to a year, sometimes even longer, depending on the specific product used.
CO2 LASER Resurfacing
Facial CO2 laser treatment, also known as fractional carbon dioxide laser resurfacing, is a cosmetic procedure that uses a laser to rejuvenate the skin by addressing various concerns such as wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and uneven texture. The laser targets the outer layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin regeneration. The benefits of facial CO2 laser include improved skin tone and texture, reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, diminished appearance of scars, and overall skin rejuvenation, resulting in a smoother, more youthful complexion.
