Facelift Houston, Houston Facelift by Dr. Berzin in Houston Texas.

Face Lift

Over time, the long-term effects of gravity, exposure to sun, dry air, and general stress takes its toll on an individual's face and neckline.  Jowls can develop under the jawline with folds and fat deposits.  Sometimes creases begin to form between the nose and the mouth.

A facelift can considerably reduce these signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening the underlying muscles, and redraping the skin around the neck and face.  Facelifts can be done alone, or frequently performed in conjunction with another procedure such as a browlift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping.  If your problem areas are limited to the neck, a more conservative procedure, known as a "platysmaplasty" will be recommended.  In some cases, a facelift can reduce the outward signs of aging by ten or fifteen years.

Tissue Glue Face Lift

A facelift can "reset the clock" on the aging process, enhance your appearance and self-esteem, and restore a more youthful and refreshed look by redistributing saggy cheek fat, smoothing out deep wrinkles, tightening underlying muscles of the face and neck, and removing excess skin. As we age, the effects of gravity, sun exposure, and the stresses of our daily lives can be seen in our faces. Supportive structures tend to stretch and deep creases form between the nose and mouth, the jawline droops (jowling), and the neck becomes fatty and loose (turkey gobbler). By redistributing the fat and tightening these structures, a fresher, more youthful appearance can be restored. In order to have a more complete balance, a facelift is commonly performed in conjunction with other procedures such as a forehead lift, eyelid surgery, fat injection, or nose reshaping.  There are a variety of incision locations, depending on the problem areas, and they are usually very well hidden above the hairline at the temples, in a natural line in front of the ear, and behind the ear to the lower scalp. If the neck needs extensive work, a small incision may also be made just under the chin in the shadow line.

During the procedure, once all the structures are restored and the skin readied for redraping, tissue glue (spray containing components from your own blood) is used to seal the lifted skin to the underlying muscle bed. By creating this seal, there is less bruising, less swelling, less likelihood of needing a drain under the skin, and the total recovery time is significantly decreased as compared to when the spray is not used.

 

Mini Face Lift

For those people that have less severe signs of facial aging, a mini-facelift, which can be performed as an in office procedure, can achieve a significant amount of improvement with fewer incisions and less recovery time. Because the aging signs are less severe, fewer structures need to be uncovered and corrected. Just as with the conventional facelift, drooping jowls, loose and fatty necks, saggy cheeks, and extra skin can all be corrected, and a more youthful rested appearance can be restored.

 

Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is a procedure that restores a more youthful, well-rested, and vibrant appearance to the eyes by redistributing fat bags and removing excess skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. Eyelid surgery can correct drooping upper lids, puffy bags above and below your eyes, redundant upper eyelid skin, and hanging lower lid skin, all features that can give you the appearance of being older and more tired  than you feel, and may even interfere with your vision. While it can add an upper eyelid crease to Asian eyes, it will not erase evidence of your ethnic or racial heritage. Blepharoplasty can be done alone, or in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures such as a facelift or a browlift, and the incisions are very difficult to see because they are hidden in your natural creases. Both men and women benefit greatly from this procedure and achieve good results with nearly invisible scars.

Brow Lift

A forehead lift or "browlift" is a procedure that restores a more youthful, refreshed, and cheery look to the forehead, eye brows and upper eyelid areas. By removing excess skin and muscle, the procedure corrects drooping brows, improves the horizontal lines and furrows that can make you look angry, sad or tired, and tightening the skin of the upper eyelid. The incisions are well hidden along the frontal hairline or in the hair, and with the use of an endoscope (a small camera that allows the procedure to be performed with minimal incisions), the incisions are almost impossible to see. The particular type of incision to be used is dependent on your goals and desires. Also, a forehead lift is often performed in conjunction with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a facelift to provide a smoother, overall balanced look to the eyes and face.

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty (surgery to reshape the nose) can change the size of your nose (smaller or bigger), take off a hump, change the shape of the tip, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper lip. It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems by straitening the septum. There are so many possible ways to change the appearance of the nose that it is important that you have a specific idea of what you would like corrected.

In general, the nose takes its shape from the cartilage and bony framework that underlies the skin. This delicate relationship between these structures is what is altered during the reshaping process.  Incisions are very well hidden inside the nose, and occasionally, a small incision is made in the shadow line under the nose. By removing, adding, or changing the position of the cartilages, bones and soft tissue, your desired nose shape can be achieved.
