Facial Rejuvenation: Which Procedure Is Right for Me?

woman thinkingContinuous facial movements, aging, and environmental factors can give you an aged and upset appearance. There are several options for facial rejuvenation; the one(s) for you will depend on your unique goals and preferences. Whether you wish to correct unwanted wrinkles or sagging, Dr. Tim Alexander offers procedures that target a variety of facial concerns.

Facelift

Facelift surgery is often considered the tried-and-true approach to facial rejuvenation. It involves excising excess skin and fatty tissue from the face and tightening facial muscles to create a smoother, younger aesthetic. A facelift can address any of the following imperfections in the lower face:

  • Displaced facial volume
  • Jowls
  • Double chin
  • Deep nasolabial folds

Mid-facelift

A mid-facelift corrects minor defects of the mid-face rather than producing facial rejuvenation in the entire face. Dr. Alexander creates incisions in the hairline that extend around the ear where excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is tightened. Mid-facelift surgery addresses issues in the mid-face area, including:

  • Wrinkled lower eyelids
  • Creases around the nose and mouth
  • Sagging skin in the cheeks

Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a procedure that enhances the upper and lower eyelids. It involves removing excess skin and fat from the eyelids, producing a brighter appearance. Blepharoplasty is designed to treat the following:

  • Sagging of the upper eyelids
  • Fat deposits in the lower eyelids
  • Dark circles under the eyes
  • Obstructed vision due to hanging upper eyelid skin

Brow Lift

Brow lift surgery reverses signs of aging in the forehead and brow area. Dr. Alexander adjusts the tissue on the forehead to create a youthful and rejuvenated upper face. Ideal candidates for a brow lift can relate to any of the following issues:

  • Drooping eyebrows
  • Forehead wrinkles
  • Furrows between the brows

Consultation

Of course, the best way to know which procedure or procedures will fulfill your goals is to schedule a private consultation with Dr. Alexander. During your meeting, Dr. Alexander will evaluate your condition and formulate a surgical plan that best suits your anatomy and personal preferences.
