Facial plastic surgery can address both cosmetic concerns or reconstruction purposes, ranging from facial injuries, burns, or skin cancer treatment. While a facelift may be what first comes to mind when considering a cosmetic procedure, there are actually multiple different types of treatments included in facial plastic surgery.
The goal of cosmetic facial plastic surgery in Clear Lake is to help you look naturally refreshed and draw out your youth. These procedures can minimize visible signs of aging—such as wrinkles and sagging skin—and leave you with increased confidence and self-esteem.
As we age, our faces naturally lose fat, changing our appearance. Less collagen and elastin are produced, which adds to tissue loss, resulting in sagging skin and wrinkles.
A facelift can rejuvenate your appearance by smoothing out wrinkles, folds, and sagging skin. There are many variations of a facelift that can be performed, including area-specific—like midface or lower face lifts. Smaller procedures may only require local anesthetics while more major changes may require general anesthesia.
For many people, a neck lift is performed alongside a facelift. An aging neck can start to resemble a turkey wattle as fat disappears at your jawline and more fat appears under your chin, making the skin droop. This type of aging may be more prevalent in men than women. A neck lift at Dr. Olivier Deigni’s office in Clear Lake could reverse some of these changes to bring back a youthful appearance.
A forehead lift—or a brow lift—can smooth out the deep creases and folds that can appear after years of frowning or squinting. It will also help reduce wrinkles around your upper eyelids. The incisions are hidden in your hairline, and the results look natural.
Patients have a variety of reasons for having eyelid surgery—or blepharoplasty. Facial aging is typically first seen around your eyes, leaving you with a fatigued appearance. For some patients, raising their upper lids improves their field of vision, which can be limited by excessively drooping upper eyelids. Prominent undereye bags and crow’s feet can be addressed as well.
Eyelid facial surgery in Clear Lake can brighten your face by taking years off your appearance while also improving functionality.
If you feel like your nose does not complement your features, you may want to change it. A nose that feels too large for your overall face will distract from your eyes and beautiful smile. Additionally, if your nose has a prominent bump—possibly from a previously broken nose—you may wish to refine the bridge for a smoother profile.
The ears play a significant role in the appearance of your face, so it is important to feel comfortable with them. If your earlobes have become damaged by wearing earrings or have always been a little large but are now sagging, you might want earlobe surgery to repair the damage or to bring them down to a more aesthetically pleasing size.
Ear surgery is also common with prominent ears, a hereditary trait, to avoid sticking out in the crowd. Ear “pinning” can be done under local anesthetics for adults in League City.
