FACIAL COSMETIC PROCEDURES

FACIAL COSMETIC PROCEDURES

In today’s workaholic busy world, the face, even though only a single part of the body, is the principal icon of self-identity, defining one’s beauty and easy unique recognition amongst millions. Age-related changes occur in all layers of the face, including skin, superficial or deep fatty tissues, muscles and bone. Facial Cosmetic Surgery procedures have evolved over the past decade to encompass a wide range of techniques which lift, augment or rearrange facial tissues to rejuvenate the aging face.

Aging face is associated with various unpleasant facial features like thinning, wrinkles, dryness, folds in the skin and deeper tissues forming glabellar frown lines, transverse forehead lines or crow’s feet, tear trough, Sagging or ptosis of soft tissue, particularly in the lower cheek, jowls, or neck etc. which gives a tired, worried distressing look to the patient or may be a reason for social stigma for many. These features may warrant multiple procedures for correcting the concerned aging facial features and may need multiple stages for long term effects.
