Facial Surgery
Plastic surgery can help with many concerns related to your facial appearance. Most surgical procedures offered by Dr. David G. Glick focus on reducing the signs of aging, while others are designed to enhance proportion of facial features like the nose, chin or ears. Read on to learn more about the facial surgery procedures Dr. Glick provides.
Brow Lift
Often we think of a patient with a low brow as being tired, angry or grumpy. A brow lift restores the brow to a more open awake position while at the same time tightens the upper eyelid skin. As the muscles are tightened with a brow lift and/or removed, wrinkles, creases and furrows disappear.
Chin Surgery
The chin is important for facial harmony, a primary factor in what is considered a beautiful face. Correcting a deficient chin to a slightly more prominent chin often improves this facial balance and harmony.
Ear Surgery
Dr. Glick performs ear pinning surgery for those who struggle with ears that appear misshapen or protrude too far. By accessing the cartilage of the ears, Dr. Glick is able to reshape ears and normalize their appearance, molding them closer to the head.
Eyelid Surgery
Drooping, sagging skin on the upper and lower eyelids along with bulging fat and hollowness may all be treated with blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery. This procedure can address the upper or lower eyelids.
Facelift
The facelift of today may create a younger looking patient (10-12 years younger) with minimal signs of the procedure. A facelift is a rejuvenation surgery that goes beyond just skin tightening. In attempt to restore a younger appearance, modern facelifts extend below to the underlying facial muscles called the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS), while reducing the loose skin.
Facial Implants
In some cases, you may feel your facial features lack harmony and that some are too small in comparison to the rest of your face. Facial implant procedures can restore facial harmony and proportion by adding fullness to the cheekbone structure.
Facial Fat Grafting
Fat grafting uses extra fat from your own body to fill lines and wrinkles on the face. Through this procedure, you can achieve more youthful volume in the skin, with a dramatic reduction in the treated wrinkles.
Neck Lift
If you have ever been bothered by the appearance of a “turkey neck,” you’re not alone. For many peole, aging skin loses its elasticity and gravity takes over, leaving wrinkles, sagging neck skin, and vertical bands between the chin and neck. A neck lift is traditionally a rejuvenation surgery that tightens the skin and muscles on the neck.
Rhinoplasty
The most prominent facial feature is your nose, so a nose that is out of proportion or unbalanced can seriously impact your self-image and self-esteem. Rhinoplasty can improve nasal proportion and transform your appearance. Even a small change made to your nose can result in a significant improvement in your overall facial balance.
Mini Facelift
The mini-facelift is perfectly suited for a 30-to 40 year-old woman or man who wants a more youthful appearance but doesn’t need a full facelift. The mini lift is shorter and slightly less invasive, so you can be back on your feet within a couple of days. This type of limited facelift has also been useful for tightening a patient’s features after a previous facelift, giving them several more years with a youthful appearance.
