Your tissues age in many ways as time passes, and gravity, genetics and lifestyle habits play their roles. Skin loses collagen and elastin resulting in wrinkles and loose or thinning skin.
Combating these signs of aging is an art form. In the hands of skilled plastic surgeon, a combination of face procedures and injectables can restore a more youthful appearance. Dr. David Bray, Jr. is a board-certified plastic surgeon who customizes each procedure to your needs and has vast experience in these procedures and more:
1. Brow and Forehead Lift
Brow and forehead lift focus on loose skin and a heavy brow in the upper face. The procedure elevates the tissues and removes the excess skin.
Some possible benefits of brow and forehead lift include:
- Improve forehead creases
- Elevate a sagging brow
2. Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
Eyelid surgery removes loose skin from the upper and lower eyelids for cosmetic reasons. In addition, fat causes “bags” in the lower eyelids that can be managed during blepharoplasty.
3. Facelift
Facelift focuses on providing a natural rejuvenated appearance of the lower face and neck. The procedure lifts and tightens sagging skin of the face and neck. Fat is repositioned to restore lost volume to the cheeks and mid-face and improve jawline definition.
Facelift benefits include:
- Address multiple signs of aging in the mid, lower face and neck at once
- Tighten loose skin
- Reshape the jawline and neck
4. Cosmetic Injectables
These minimally invasive injectables offer quick treatments with little to no downtime. Dr. Bray, Jr. provides Botox for dynamic wrinkles that form due to repeated muscle movements, such as forehead lines. Dermal fillers are available to restore lost volume and fill static wrinkles caused by aging.
The benefits of cosmetic injectables include:
- Short procedure
- No scarring
- Minimal or no downtime
- Complementary treatment after a face procedure to improve results by adding volume
- Versatile treatment areas, from forehead to areas around the mouth, nose and chin
Botox results take a few days to settle in and last about three months by relaxing the muscle causing the wrinkle. Dermal fillers offer instant results as the hyaluronic acid fills in the tissues, lasting six months to over a year depending on the injectable and facial area treated.
