Face Lift by Dr. Karam

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

As a prospective patient seeking aesthetic consultation, you should diligently review your prospective surgeon’s before-and-after results to determine whether or not that practitioner shares your aesthetic vision. Carmel Valley Facial Plastic Surgery has a strong reputation for producing natural looking results no matter how dramatic the change. Depending on the individuals anatomy, lifestyle, degree of age-related changes, and the amount of downtime and cost the individual is able to handle, several options are available to re-contour the face.

The Facelift addresses the upper cheeks, midface, jowls, jawline, corners of the mouth and neck. The difference between this procedure and the Micro Lift (Mini Facelift) is that the upper cheeks and midface are addressed. Essentially, the same incisions are used in both procedures. Individuals with moderate amount of skin and muscle laxity are good candidates for this procedure. The neck is treated with liposuction and the muscle is tightened and repositioned. The midface and upper cheeks are treated by repositioning the malar (cheek) fat pad back toward a more youthful position.

There are so many new and different treatments available now. Even more fascinating – there are also different ways to perform each treatment. Given this great variety, the surgeon’s techniques have become as unique as the treatments and the right combination can produce stunning results.

Reverse the Appearance of Aging with a Facial Rejuvenation Procedure

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

A brow lift, also called a forehead lift or eyebrow lift, corrects the skin wrinkling and loss of tone that causes sagging of eyebrows and hooding of upper eyelids. A brow lift softens the deep creases across the forehead, reduces horizontal frown lines at the top of your nose and vertical lines between your brows. The result is a more relaxed and refreshed appearance. It is the only procedure that can increase the distance from the lateral brow to the upper eyelashes.

A brow lift is often performed along with a face lift or other facial rejuvenation procedures. Some people have brow lifts to correct aging problems, while others have inherited traits that cause them to seek treatment in their 20s or 30s. You may be a good candidate for a brow lift if you have any of the following types of conditions:

  • If you have drooping lateral brows that are close to or below your orbital bony rim
  • If you feel you always look angry or scowling
  • If you like your appearance and your brows and eyelids when you pull up your forehead with your fingers at your hairline above your lateral brows
  • If you desire the ideal benefits of facial rejuvenation and you are already considering a face and neck lift

For more information about the Brow Lift procedure, contact Dr. Pearl, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in Mountain View, California.

Cosmetic Surgeons Perform Facelift Surgery For Many Reasons

Monday, January 11th, 2010

A rhytidectomy procedure will be incapable of stopping this process, but it is capable of “turning back the hands of time.” A face lift (technically called a rhytidectomy) was created to reduce many of the heavy folds and wrinkles of a person’s neck and face. The surgery will also make the contour of a person’s jaw and necklines more aesthetic. However, a rhytidectomy will not be able to completely removed every fold, wrinkle, and line. The amount of improvement that can be made around the eyes and with fine lines of the facial skin is limited. A face lift alone will not be able to improve “smoker’s” lines around the mouth, acne scars, or poor complexion. There are other options available to treat these various problems including chemical peels, laser treatment, and dermabrasion.

Performed By A Cosmetic Surgeon, A Facelift Procedure Turns Back the Hands of Time

Monday, January 11th, 2010

A rhytidectomy is able to improve the most visible signs of aging by tightening and sculpting the deeper foundation and structures of the neck and face. When a person ages, the effects of smoking, gravity, sun exposure, heredity, the stresses of daily lift, and weight fluctuations of daily life begin to show themselves in their face. A rhytidectomy procedure can bring back youth to a person’s face. In a person’s youth, their face is firm and smooth due to proper positioning of normal facial fat and good skin elasticity. As a person ages, muscle tone and skin elasticity weaken and facial fat descends which causes prominent skin folds and deep creases between the corner of the mouth and nose. The jowls of a person become more prominent along with fat deposits and loose skin forming in the neck.

Your Plastic Surgeon Will Make Sure That Your Facelift Is Individualized For You

Friday, January 1st, 2010

A rhytidectomy is very individualized. In your initial consultation with your plastic surgeon he or she will evaluate your face. This evaluation will include the skin and the underlying bone structure. Then your doctor will discuss your goals for the surgery with you. He or she will follow that with a review of your medical history and will check you for any conditions that would cause a problem during or after the surgery. These conditions include uncontrolled high blood pressure, the tendency to form excessive scars, and blood clotting problems. It is important that you inform your surgeon of all the herbs, medications, and vitamins that you are taking. If you are a smoker, your cosmetic surgeon will counsel you on the increased risks associated with healing and he or she will wait for you to have stopped smoking for at least two months before performing a procedure.

A Plastic Surgeon Can Reverse The Effects Of Gravity On Your Face With A Rhytidectomy

Friday, January 1st, 2010

A face lift, technically called a rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that is capable of “setting the clock back” on your face and neck. As a person ages the effects of gravity and exposure to the sun along with the stresses of daily life can be seen within their faces. Deep creases form between the nose and mouth, the jawline grows jowly and slack, and folds and fat deposits appear around the neck. A face lift is capable of improving the most visible signs of aging successfully by removing excess fat, re-draping the skin of your neck and face, and tightening the underlying muscles.

Non Invasive Procedures Are Becoming More Popular

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

With economy in its current state, many are reducing their spending, which affects almost every industry in the United States. The Cosmetic and plastic surgery industry has seen a bigger drop off than most other industries and this is due to the fact that most every plastic or cosmetic procedure available is to be considered an elective surgical procedure, and are not deemed necessary to a healthy lifestyle.

Recent trends have shown a quite noticeable reduction of the most popular plastic surgery procedures – Breast Augmentation surgery, Body contouring procedures such as liposuction and tummy tuck surgery, and face lift surgery have all seen a decline in the overall number of these procedures performed. Of Course is no secret why these popular procedures have recently become less popular. All of these elective surgery procedures can cost thousands of dollars, and most people interested in finding beauty through cosmetic surgery are now looking for less expensive solutions for looking younger.

Experts in the cosmetic surgery profession, such as Hawaii Plastic surgeon Dr de los Reyes, recommend less invasive procedures to achieve that youthful look without breaking the bank. These procedures include the ever popular BOTOX treatments, Chemical peels, and other facial rejuvenation procedures such as microdermabrasion, and laser skin resurfacing.

Plastic Surgery Q&A – Facelift Surgery

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

How long does a facelift usually last?

The length of time the results of a facelift procedure will last depend on a number of factors – the type of facelift procedure and surgical techniques used, the patient’s skin type, aging, medical history, exposure to the elements, skin care regimen, how well a patient followed post operative instructions, alcohol use and smoking can all affect the longevity of facelift surgery results. The traditional answer is approximately ten years. However, taking into account the fact that the aging process cannot be stopped, anyone considering a facelift surgery procedure can expect to look better after a face lift procedure.

The best candidates for a facelift surgery procedure are men and women who are experiencing sagging skin in the face and neck area, even though their skin may still retain some of its natural elasticity.

A well-defined facial bone structure makes a facelift procedure more simple. While a facelift surgery procedure can be performed on patients in their 60’s and 70’s, the majority of patients undergo a facelift procedure in their 40’s and 50’s.

Following a facelift surgery procedure, a patient will still look like themselves, the procedure will restore a youthful refreshed look to the face and can also restore self-confidence. However, a facelift procedure will not restore youthful energy or vitality.
