The facelift has been a part of plastic surgery for decades, but over the last few years we have seen major advancements in both techniques and technology that has allowed for something called the Fresh Facelift. Though we all know that aging is a natural part of life, the traditional facelift was something that many felt was either too extreme or too expensive to seriously consider. Yet now, with the fresh facelift, there are options for a more modern and segmented approach to facial rejuvenation that can address both singular and multiple concerns, including droopy eyelids, deep lines, and sagging skin, yet with less invasiveness and more specific and targeted procedures.
Browlift and Soft Volume
Quite recently, new techniques have been introduced in the procedure known as the browlift. This specific surgery can significantly enhance your appearance by raising sagging eyebrows as well as reducing wrinkles on the forehead. The final result of this procedure can help you achieve a more alert, energetic, and youthful look without having to make additional adjustments to other parts of the face. The browlift can also be paired with soft volume techniques, such as fat micrografts, which are used to restore fullness to areas like the cheeks and lips.
Glowing Skin and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Having glowing and healthy looking skin is often seen as a hallmark of youth, yet achieving this look the further we are removed from our younger years used to be a very detailed and invasive procedure. However, new advancements such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy in which the skin is infused with pure oxygen, can promote healing and a healthier complexion. This therapy can also complement other facial procedures, enhancing overall results and give your skin a fresh, youthful and healthy glow.
Midface and Jowl Contours
The jowl line can have a major effect on both our appearance and confidence, as sagging or drooping jowls can make someone look much more aged than their actual years. This common issue is now being addressed through midface corrections that targets the area around the cheeks and under the eyes, addressing sagging and loss of volume. Procedures like jowl and cheek contouring can lift and shape this area, address sagging skin along the jawline and create a more defined profile while taking off years from one’s appearance.
Neck and Droopy Eyelids Correction
Though most people generally concentrate on their face when considering an aesthetic surgery, it is important to note that neck correction is just as essential for a comprehensive facelift. New procedures can tighten the skin and muscles of the neck, reducing sagging, deep lines, and crepiness, while providing a smoother appearance. In addition, upper blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, corrects droopy eyelids, making the eyes look more open and refreshed, and even improving vision.
Lip Lifts and Deep Lines
Lips will often lose volume as we age, causing thinness and wrinkles around the mouth. Lip lifts can enhance the shape and fullness of the lips, contributing to a more youthful look. Additionally, treatments for deep lines, such as dermal fillers, can smooth out wrinkles, return fullness, and restore a youthful appearance to the face.
Under-Eye Bags and Fresh Beauty
There are few things that can make us look more aged and tired than bagginess or wrinkles below our eyes, giving us a look that belies the way we actually feel. Treatments for this area can include lower blepharoplasty or fillers to reduce puffiness and dark circles. Achieving a fresh beauty look often involves a combination of these procedures, tailored to your specific needs.
In Conclusion
In summary, a fresh facelift is a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation that can address multiple aging concerns, but can do it in a much more targeted manner rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Applebaum recommends setting up a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon so you can learn your options and address any specific concerns. During this consultation, you can learn about every option from browlifts to neck corrections, as well as what combination of these procedures will best work together to give you the youthful and refreshed appearance you desire.
