Face Procedures

One of the earliest procedures to elevate the brow was the bi-coronal lift, which uses an incision that goes across the top of the head, just behind the hairline. This is, perhaps, the most powerful type of lift because it gives the surgeon optimal exposure and opportunities to correct the entire forehead. The corrugator muscles that cause the “11 lines” between our eyes can be removed as well. It is, however, the most invasive, and is used infrequently today.

A less invasive yet effective alternative is to use two, smaller incisions that straddle the temporal crest, behind the hairline. This method is capable of making favorable improvements to the lateral brow by tightening specific fascial layers of the forehead soft tissue.

Piercing of the earlobe is popular and often is performed at a young age. As the years pass, the hole can become enlarged because of heavy earrings and/or a loss of skin elasticity. A sudden pulling of an earring can result in immediate trauma and a split in the lobe.

Likewise, gauges can result in significant stretching of the earlobe anatomy and lead to an undesirable appearance. As its popularity has decreased, surgical correction is often sought out.

An eyelid lift, whether performed for cosmetic or functional reasons, is one of the most common operations performed on the face. There are many reasons people opt for this procedure, with one of the most common being that excess skin on the upper eyelid contributes to a tired appearance.

Excess eyelid skin may also interfere with the application of eye shadow, and it can even cause the obstruction of your superior field of vision. However, all of this can be corrected with a blepharoplasty, which is the medical term for the surgical enhancement of either the upper or lower eyelids.

There is no one facelift (rhytidectomy). Just as no two faces are alike, so, too, should no two facelifts be just alike. In fact, we often use multiple techniques in a facelift, because our goal is to harmonize the features and contours of your face.

A facelift is a procedure designed to treat the sagging cheek and jowl region of the face and tighten the skin of the neck. The effect of the facelift is to provide an enhanced and more youthful appearance.

When injectables are not likely to provide enough change for the contour you are seeking, or are not long-lasting enough to be a realistic option, then facial implants may well become part of our discussion.

Because our genes don’t always create the facial attributes we hope for, facial implants are available for changing the contour of the face. A chin implant can correct a weak or receded chin and make the chin more proportional to the rest of the face.

Want to rejuvenate your face, but not interested in a facelift? Don’t have the time it takes for injectables to show their full impact? Then consider InstaLift, which is a technological innovation offering women and men what no single treatment has ever provided in such a minimally invasive way: An immediate mid-face lifting effect with gradual stimulation of collagen to produce natural-looking, lasting results.

Because people come in all shapes and forms, each neck restoration is a unique project. Patients seeking cosmetic neck surgery also typically have skin laxity in other parts of their face. Under these circumstances, it is usually best to include some of the elements of a traditional face-neck lift when approaching their neck. With this technique, not only the skin, but also the deeper muscle and fascia are tightened. For this type of patient, without the incisions of a traditional face lift, an unattractive bulge of skin would be left in front of the ear.

Otoplasty techniques include surgical operations to restore or enhance the appearance of an ear or the ears. Deformity of the external ear may be due to trauma, the treatment for cancer, or a congenital condition such as the protruding ear.

The most common congenital ear deformity treated at RenewalMD is the protruding ear. The protruding ear appears either at birth or in early childhood and can involve either one or both ears.

Rhinoplasty is performed to change the appearance of the nose to be more aesthetic and pleasing. Our minimally invasive procedure offers minimal discomfort, reduced recovery time, and less bruising. We can improve your appearance and breathing with natural-looking results.
