Facial Rejuvenation And The Plastic Surgeon

A plastic surgeon is not only capable of performing forms of surgery to improve your appearance but can also offer you facial rejuvenation that is non-surgical and non-invasive in nature. More and more individuals are opting for the Botox Cosmetic or a dermal filler such as Juvederm Ultra Plus and micro peels or chemical peels to help shave years off their faces. 

Facial rejuvenation is being performed by cosmetic surgeons all of the time because it is a popular choice. It is a technique that combines a selection of treatments in order to fight back the signs of aging that plague us all. 

A plastic surgeon will let a prospective patient know that there are many factors that can speed up aging of the face. Some of these include hormonal changes such as pregnancy, menopause and oral contraceptives, smoking, exposing your skin to the sun while not wearing sun block, excessive cold and heat, pollution, medical conditions such as acne or chicken pox that can lead to scarring, stress and not consuming a healthy diet. Genetics can also play a role in the acceleration of aging of the face. 

Facial rejuvenation can take different forms. At your consultation with a plastic surgeon explain to him what your problem is and let him examine your face closely. From there he will ask you a series of questions and will then recommend the treatment program or combination of facial procedures that can rejuvenate your skin to get it to look the way you want it to.

It is important to know that your facial bones change as you get older. What this means is that the structure of your bones shifts over the passage of time and bone loss can be a result of this transformation of age. This therefore has a significant impact on the way in which a plastic surgeon uses cosmetic strategies and techniques to benefit his patients who are seeking enhancements. Understanding that this takes place is important for both the surgeon and the person looking to have plastic surgery. Changes in facial bones are an inevitable aspect of getting older. 

Chemical peels are an option that is favorable to many patients who had never been to a cosmetic doctor before. Peels are a skin resurfacing treatment that can improve the texture of facial skin and can also minimize the look of fine lines. It is also a viable option for those who have dry spots on their face, a great deal of freckling and hyperpigmentation. If you wish to reduce the size of large pores then the plastic surgeon can also accomplish this with a chemical or micro peel. 

Facial fillers such as Restylane, and collagen can fill in spots of the face that are making you look old. They can fill in wrinkles, lines and fillers and can plump up the skin because they increase the volume in these areas. Botox is capable of helping muscles that are contracting to let go in order to reduce the wrinkles that develop because of these muscles. Botox can be used in the upper region of the face. It is commonly used in the area between the eyebrows. A furrow in the brow can make an individual look not just older but also angry.
