At CosMedica, we believe that everyone deserves the chance to turn back the clock, to look younger and to feel better about the way they look. A facelift can improve the visible signs of aging. It can tighten sagging facial muscles, loose neck and facial skin, and remove excess fat to give you a more youthful appearance. Facelifts are often done in conjunction with eyelid surgery or a forehead lift. The various facelift procedures that Dr. Bellin performs can vastly improve any or all of the following conditions:
- Nasolabial fold – This is the fold of skin that runs from beside the nose to the corner of your mouth. A nasolabial fold that is too obvious or exaggerated can make you look “down” and surly, and make you feel unattractive. The upward and backward pull from your face lift should help to reduce it significantly. Although it may not be eliminated, it should at least be reduced to a more normal size.
- “Crow’s feet” wrinkles – These are the wrinkles that gather at the corner of your eyes and the fat cushions that bunch around your cheekbones. The upward traction of your face lift should take care of these. Your cheekbones will appear higher and more youthful as well.
- “Marionette lines” – These are aptly named after the cuts on a puppet’s face which allow its jaw to move.
- Hanging jowls – These are the unsightly jaw or chin folds which remind you of your aging process. They typically extend from below and behind the corners of your mouth to the edges of your jaw. Your face lift procedure should almost completely remove them.
- Turkey–gobbler look – This is the excess skin that hangs below your chin. A facelift should make it disappear, though the neck muscles may need some of your surgeon´s attention as well.
- Acne scars – A face lift can even help with your acne scars, because it stretches out the depressions as it does with wrinkles, rendering them much less noticeable.
If you suffer from any of the above conditions, then you may be a candidate for facelift surgery. If you live in the New York area, please contact us today to arrange your free facelift consultation.
