Facial Surgery From Chin Augmentation To Otoplasty - By: Dave Stringham

A plastic surgery can involved many aspects, and a facial surgery can include many things from a face-lift, chin augmentation, to prominent ears.

To recontour the upper and lower face including the neck, the skin and underlying tissues are lifted to give a more youthful appearance. This procedure can be performed in our fully accredited ambulatory surgery facility.

Mini-Face Lift will recontours the lower face from cheek to chin. Skin and underlying tissue is lifted to effectively eliminate jowls and redefine the cheekbones. Shorter scars and quicker recovery make this procedure very appealing. The best candidates for the mini-lift are those who are unhappy with the contour of their lower face and neck.

A neck lift can make a dramatic difference in facial appearance. Small-incision surgery allows recontouring of the neck with minimal downtime under twilight anesthesia. The neck lift is ideal for treating people with conditions such as turkey wattle neck and excess fat, but who are not bothered by jowls and cheek contour problems.

Chin Augmentation recontours the chin with an implant placed through a virtually invisible incision. Chin augmentation can transform the face into a more aesthetically pleasing shape and can be done in conjunction with a neck lift or face-lift. If you are still uncertain if an implant will work for you, plastic surgeons offer the option of using facial fillers to temporarily enlarge the chin. With this type of temporary procedure, you can evaluate whether a more permanent product will give you the look you desire.

Forehead / Brow Lift opens and brightens the upper face, smoothes deep furrows and wrinkles in the forehead, softens vertical scowl lines between the eye-brows, lifts sagging brows, and alleviates pressure on the upper eyelid. It can be done alone or in conjunction with other procedures such as face-lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping.

Rhinoplasty or cosmetic correction of the appearance of the nose can be performed with techniques that allow recontouring in a natural way.

Often breathing problems and nasal congestion can be improved at the same time, providing both a practical and aesthetic benefit to the patient. Some insurance may cover surgery to alleviate breathing problems, or trauma.

The eyes are the windows to the soul. All too often, however, they seem to reveal exhaustion. The very delicate skin around the eyes tend to crease and become puffy due to fatigue and stress.

One very helpful way to get rid of this look is to opt for eyelid tuck -- a technique that involves making a tiny incision inside the lower and, or, external lid of the eye. The tissue heals so quickly that all you are left with fine line scars that are almost invisible to naked eye.

Upper and lower eyelid incisions heal very well. Sometimes the lower eyelid can be done without any external scars.

Lip augmentation enhances the contour and fullness of lips for a younger, healthier appearance. Well-defined, plump lips are subject to sagging as we age. The colored portion of the lips thins out and the arch of the upper lip (cupid's bow) flattens. This problem is especially noticeable in women with naturally thin lips. Lip augmentation is appropriate for patients who wish to enhance the lips they are born with and for patients who wish to restore the lips aging takes away.

Your options for shaping and sculpting your lips, correcting a lip imperfection or enhancing an already wonderful shape with more fullness can be done with a simple medical procedure, which includes numerous minimally invasive temporary injectable fillers to permanent fillers and implants.

Prominent ears can be a source of ridicule and embarrassment, particularly for children. The problem is usually a lack of adequate folding of the ear cartilage such that instead of folding back on itself, the ear cartilage continues as a large bowl-shape.

The prominent ear can be surgically corrected to a more aesthetically pleasing shape with a lower profile from the head. During the procedure, through an incision behind the ear, the cartilage is reshaped to the desired contour, using stitches placed in the rear of the ear, which do not show after surgery.
