As people age, the effects of gravity and the stresses of daily life can be seen in their faces. Deep creases form between the nose and mouth, the jaw line grows slack and jowly, and folds and fat deposits appear around the neck.

One should know that plastic surgery can\'t stop the aging process. It can only \"set back the clock\", improving the most visible signs of aging by removing excess fat while tightening underlying muscles and redraping the skin of your body. Many types of surgeries are available. Some of these procedures are blepharoplasty, facelift, or juvederm.

The procedures of blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and brow lift are usually done for the aging face. The purpose of surgery is to smoothen forehead wrinkles, remove bags under the eyes and loose skin of the upper eyelids and raise sagging eyebrows.

Many doctors can almost always do the surgery under local with IV sedation or twilight sleep to give the face a more rejuvenated and youthful appearance. Generally, scars are very fine and placed in areas where they are the least visible and they fade with the passage of time.

Sometimes, elevation of the eyebrows can be achieved through eyelid surgery without any additional scars. Cosmetic facial surgeries are outpatient procedures.

We also offer juvederm, an injectable gel made of hyaluronic acid that is FDA approved. juvederm is a dermal filler that can be used without or without a facelift procedure to temporarily add volume and smooth away lines and wrinkles in the face.

The nose is to the face what breasts are to the body. Altering the shape of the nose can drastically improve the aesthetic balance of the face. Scars are either all on the inside of the nose or there are additional minimal scars on the outside that are faintly visible.

The surgery is almost always done under twilight sleep anesthesia as an outpatient unless the patient prefers general anesthesia. Generally, rhinoplasty involves removal of a hump, refinement of the tip and narrowing the nose (if indicated) to sculpture the nose into a nice contour in balance with the face. Sometimes, breathing is improved as well by straightening the septum.
