How Can Plastic Surgery Help Your Face?
Your face is one of your most important physical attributes. It’s what you present to the world. And, if you are unhappy about the way your face looks, either in part or in whole, you can feel self-conscious and embarrassed. However, plastic surgery can help correct some of these aesthetic issues, so you feel more confident and comfortable with the way you look.
Facelift Surgery
Facelift surgery tightens the skin and underlying tissues in the lower two-thirds of the face (from the cheeks to the neck).
A facelift helps correct wrinkles and fine lines on the face that develop with age. Additionally, excess skin can be removed with a facelift.
Brow Lift Surgery
Brow lift surgery tightens the skin around the eyes and forehead.
A brow lift results in smoother and healthier-looking skin in the upper third of the face.
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) addresses aging in the upper and lower eyelids.
Whether it be correcting tired-looking eyes or sagging eyelids, blepharoplasty can help revitalize the appearance of your eyes.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty (corrective nose surgery) corrects irregularities with the nose, including crookedness, bumps, size, and shape. This surgery can also adjust the nostrils.
Because the nose is the central part of your face, you will achieve a more balanced aesthetic after rhinoplasty.
Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)
Otoplasty (ear surgery) (ear pinning) improves the ears’ size, shape, and projection.
Whether you are frustrated about the large size of your ears or are unhappy with how far they stick out from the side of your face, otoplasty can bring your ears into a more natural look with the rest of your face.
Non-surgical Facial Rejuvenation
Non-surgical procedures, such as neuromodulator injectables and dermal fillers (like BOTOX® Cosmetic, JUVÉDERM®, KYBELLA®) or laser skin resurfacing, can give your face a refreshed and youthful look without you needing to worry about surgical procedures, recovery time, or stitches.

Are my facial plastic surgery results permanent?
If you choose to have a surgical procedure, your results will be long lasting; however, no surgery can keep away the natural effects of aging.
