More Than Just A Nose Job: Other Facial Surgeries Plastic Surgeons Do

Blog

Everyone is familiar with the most common cosmetic surgery for faces. It is the nose job, and while that might be what some people want done, it is not what everyone wants. If you want a consultation for some other facial surgery, you can consult with a surgeon who specializes in facial plastic surgery services. You might be surprised to learn that all of the following surgeries and services are performed by these cosmetic specialists.

Blepharoplasty 

​A blepharo-what now? Blepharoplasty is an eyelid surgery. It corrects drooping eyelids, heavy eyelids, misshapen eyelids, etc., so that you appear younger, more awake and alert, and with very large and lovely eyes. More women than men opt for this surgery years after their children have outgrown the infant, toddler, and elementary school years and parents can finally get a decent night's sleep. It may even help eliminate or reduce wrinkles around the eyes, an added benefit to lifting the upper lids. 

Cheek and Chin Implants

Born with a weak chin? Maybe you did not get the stunning cheekbones of an actress and you want them so​ bad? A facial cosmetic surgeon can insert hard plastic implants over your natural chin or over your natural cheekbones to really bump them up and make them more defined and more noticeable. These implants really alter your appearance dramatically, so be ready for big changes if you opt for either of these implant surgeries.

Mini-Lift

​A mini facelift, a.k.a., a "mini-lift," is a surgical procedure that just addresses the sagging flesh in the neck, lower jaw, and lower face regions. If that turkey wattle is getting to you , or the smile lines near your mouth are so deeply creased that you compare yourself to a bulldog, a mini-lift can totally correct that. It takes years off your face, and the only maintenance you have to do for this procedure is at least a decade or two down the road. 

Facial Reconstructive Surgery

​Sometimes life is more than unkind; it is downright cruel. In these instances, people are either born with facial deformities through no fault of their own, or they were in some sort of accident that marred their faces extensively. Either way, facial cosmetic surgeons can completely rebuild your face over a series of planned surgeries that will help you feel more confident and more like all of the other faces you see on the street.

Getting a Chemical Peel

Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve been a daddy’s girl. Now that my father is getting older, I’m starting to worry more about his health. Because he worked outdoors for decades, I was happy when my dad recently started to visit a dermatologist. This medical professional discovered that my dear dad had several skin cancers on his face. This individual removed my father’s skin cancers by burning and freezing them. He also recommended that my father undergo a chemical peel in order to prevent some of the cancers on his face from returning. On this blog, you will discover the health benefits of getting a chemical peel on your face. Enjoy!
