Facial Procedures:                                                                           Back to Top

• Brow lift (Forehead lift)
  The forehead area of the face is often one of the first places to develop frown lines and horizontal forehead wrinkles. Even for some at a young age, the brow begins to drop. New Image Cosmetic Surgery can stop and reverse these signs of aging and restore your forehead and brow to a more youthful appearance.
  
  
• Facelift (or Rhytidectomy)
  A facelift is a common procedure involving the removal of excess facial skin, with or without tightening of underlying tissues, and the redraping the skin on the face and neck, in order to give a more youthful appearance. A facelift usually includes the whole face, and the procedure can be combined with a chemical peel or laser treatment. Patients should stop smoking and taking anti-inflammatory drugs, like aspirin, at least two weeks prior to the procedure.
  
  Bruising from the facelift goes away in two weeks or less, and most of the significant swelling will go away within the first month after surgery. The difference before and after surgery is often dramatic, resulting in a much youthful appearance.
  
  During your initial Free Consultation at New Image, our plastic surgeon will look at your face and neck, and inform you step by step the procedures that can be done to the face and to the neck.
  
  
• Midface lift (Cheek lift)
  The midface lift can remove the appearance of sagging cheeks, smooth-out nasal furrows, and pull up the corners of your lips. The check lift procedure can be done by itself or in combination with an endoscopic brow lift, eyelid surgery, or as part of a facelift.


• Neck Lift (Rejuvenation)
  A person's neck can sag at any age and can be a source of self-consiousness. The neck can be full, from a genetic fat storage area; or be loose, secondary to excess skin or excessive weight loss. The neck area can respond well to liposculpture, or to an open neck lift surgical technique.

  A neck lift is usually of a facelift but may be performed alone. The repair of the playsma muscles helps redeine the neck.

  The surgery of the neck is reached through incisions around the ears and through tiny incisions under the chin. When there is a good deal of extra skin, it needs to be removed as part of the lift. This placement of the incisions permits hiding the scars behind the ears. Please contact us for your personal evaluation to explain all your options and to discuss the best treatment for you.

• Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
  Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, reshapes the upper or lower eyelid through a process of removing or repositioning extra tissue as well as reinforcing the surrounding muscles and tendons around the eye. For the upper eyelid, the incision is well hidden within the natural folds of the eyelid after the excessive tissue has been removed. For lower eyelid surgery, the incision is placed inside or on the lower lip right beneath the eyelashes. The procedure heals well and almost no scars will remain visible.
  
  Upper or lower eyelid surgery can brighten and restore your appearance by removing tissue around the eyes that make you appear more tired or older than you really are.
  
  
• Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)
  Rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, is intended to reshape the contours of your nose in order to create a more pleasing shape. Excess cartilage and bone in your nose, will be removed, straightened out and your nose is left with smaller, smoother, and enhanced in appearance. Local or general anesthesia can be used.
  
  
• Otoplasty (Ear Pinning)
  Otoplasty, or ear pinning, is designed to bring prominent ears closer to the head or to reduce in size the shape of the ears.
  
  The surgery involves a small incision on the back of the ear. Cartilage is then reshaped or removed, allowing the ear to lie close to your head. In addition, the procedure may also include creating a fold in the upper ear in order to correct "shell ears" or "lop ears" in which the ear folds were not properly formed.
  
  
• Chin Implants
  Chin implants are designed for people who desire a more notable chin and a more symmetrical face. Chin implants exist in various shapes and sizes, and are fabricated out of solid or semi-solid materials. The whole procedure lasts anywhere from thirty to sixty minutes. An incision is made inside the lower lip or under the chin. The implant is then placed inside the chin. If the incision is inside the mouth, it is closed with dissolvable stitches. If the incision is under the chin, removable stitches are uses. After the surgery, the chin is sometimes taped to minimize swelling.
  
  An application of tape will help with the swelling and bruising. This tape is usually removed after a week. Pain and discomfort can be alleviated by an oral analgesic, and some facial movements may be difficult for a couple days after surgery.
  
  
• Lip Enhancements
  Lip enhancement can increase the fullness of your lips. Speak to our surgeon to learn about fat injections, fillers, and other options available to you. Following the operation, swelling typically subsides in several days.

• Makeovers for Moms

Once finished with breast-feeding, the breasts decrease in size towards their usual size, sometimes leaving stretch marks, loose skin, and begin to droop.

• BOTOX®
  BOTOX® is most commonly used between the eyebrows on the frown lines, horizontal forehead lines, and on crow's feet. After BOTOX® is injected into the muscle that creates the wrinkle with a tiny needle it blocks the nerve impulse from reaching the desired area. The muscle weakens causing skin on the muscle to relax and wrinkles vanish.
  
  BOTOX® can also be used to treat Sweaty Palm Syndrome.
  
  BOTOX® is derived from a purified protein toxin produced by the clostridium botulinum bacteria and has no serious side effects due to the small amount used. The effects of BOTOX® lasts around three to five months, and after several treatments the effects begin to last longer. BOTOX® has been safely used for over ten years and the only side effects are temporary and local to the area of the injection.
  
  Contact our Florida cosmetic surgery office today about scheduling an appointment for BOTOX® treatments.
  
  
• Restylane
  Restylane is a formulation of hyaluronic acid and is FDA approved for cosmetic injection into sub-dermal facial tissue. Most commonly, it is injected in minute quantities under wrinkles and aging lines of the face such as the nasolabial folds and forehead wrinkles. It is also used by our plastic surgeons for filling age related facial hollows and under and around the eyes. Lasting from anywhere between six to twelve months, and sometimes even longer, Restylane is also used in lip augmentation.
  
  With more than 1,500,000 successful treatments all over the world, Restylane has a long record of success and satisfied users. Restylane is biodegradable over time and is completely eliminated from the body (turns into H20 and CO2) and leaving no trace.
  
  Unlike BOTOX®, which paralyses muscles, Restylane is a natural collagen that fills in lines and folds.
  
  
  
• Mesotherapy
  Mesotherapy is a safe, noninvasive procedure used to get rid of cellulite, improve skin tone and decrease wrinkles. It is also used to correct unevenness, lumps, or divots that develop after liposuction. The medications that are used in Mesotherapy melt the fat beneath the skin and shrink the fat cells. The fat dissolves and is excreted by the kidneys and the bowel without any changes in your bowel habits.

  In Mesotherapy, very small doses of different medications are injected in specific areas, depending on the condition being treated.

  Treatments are administered weekly, and patients usually begin seeing results by the fourth treatment, After 10 treatments, patients see a significant decrease in size, improved skin tone, and smoothing or cellulite. Typically patients lose 4 to 10 inches in 10 weeks.

• Fat Injection
  Fat relocated from other areas of your body makes excellent filler because it is natural, non-allergenic, the effects are long lasting, and the side effects and recovery period is non-existent. Fat injections are used to fill in deep wrinkles, augment lips, or make your face appear more youthful and energetic.
