Facelift

Your face is where aging leaves its most noticeable imprint. Many factors contribute to facial aging including sun exposure, smoking, poor diet and nutrition, alcohol consumption, stress and heredity. Patients who are unhappy with the signs of facial aging may be good candidates for a facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy. Facial rejuvenation surgery can help you look as youthful and energetic as you feel, promoting confidence and a healthy self-esteem.

A facelift can do many things for one’s appearance. This procedure can be used to:

• Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
• Tighten sagging, loose skin
• Reduce creases around the eyes, mouth, and nose
• Help redistribute areas of fat that have been displaced and reduced as a result of gravity and the aging process
• Eliminate jowls and fatty deposits on areas such as the chin and jaw, which can result in the appearance of a “double chin.”

Some patients may choose to have other procedures at the time of their facelift, such as eyelid surgery to remove excess skin and/or fat to rejuvenate the eyes, dermabrasion to reduce fine wrinkles around the mouth, and fat injections to restore lost volume. Dr. Brown can perform all of these procedures at The New York Aesthetic Consultants’ accredited surgical facility.

Dr. Brown prides himself in providing a natural, refreshed appearance with his facial rejuvenation procedures. He does not want his patients to look “done” or artificial. He wants his patients to look rejuvenated, not different. He feels there is a fine line between what is “just enough” and what is “overdone”.

The best candidates for facelift surgery are those for whom non-surgical methods are no longer indicated to achieve their desired goals. It is important that patients have realistic expectations regarding this procedure and understand that the signs of aging cannot be stopped, nor does a facelift change the overall structure of the face. It addresses the skin and soft tissues of the face and reduces laxity, which can make patients look more youthful and energized.
