Facial Rejuvenation: The Available Options

Advances in plastic surgery have given individuals a multitude of choices when it comes to facial rejuvenation. Besides simple procedures such as BOTOX injections and creams, there are a variety of minimally invasive operations a person can have to take years off their face and restore their outer beauty. A good plastic surgeon will offer many of these choices. Take a look at some of the procedures that are out there and you may just see one you’d like to have done.

Face Lift
The face lift is far and beyond one of the most popular and well established forms of facial rejuvenation. A good procedure can take away many of the signs of aging that form in the cheeks, the forehead, and around the chin. A decrease in muscle tone and sagging skin sue to sun damage, smoking, or simply genetics can leave certain people with a face that looks much older than the person wearing it. Today, you don’t have to settle with what nature gave you. By finding a good surgeon who is practicing medicine with all of the latest technology, you don’t have to have a face lift that looks like a face lift, either, if that’s what you’re afraid of. The newest techniques give much more natural looking results.

Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty as it is known in the medical world, can make a major difference in the appearance of the face. The eyes are the centerpiece to the face and it is where most people look when they are speaking to you. The eyes are so expressive that loose, sagging eyelids can make you look much older than you are. And because the skin of the eyelid is so thin, it is one of the first places signs of aging occur. 

Lip Enhancement
Plastic surgery that uses fat or collagen to enhance the lips is one of the more popular growing forms of facial rejuvenation. We naturally associate plump, full lips with youth and sexuality, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that many older women are choosing to have this type of surgery. As people age, they tend to lose that fullness and thin lips are one of the primary signs of aging. Most respected plastic surgeons offer several techniques that can be used to restore fullness and vitality to the lips. It should be noted that regardless of the technique used, lip injections will be needed on a repeated basis to continue the effects.
