Dr. Jefrey Fishman, MD offers a number of procedures- both surgical and non-surgical- to help you feel even better about yourself. Here’s a look at a few options.
Eyelid Surgery
As skin loses elasticity with age, the eyelids often begin to droop, causing men and women to appear tired or sad, and sometimes even impairing vision. Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a common procedure that rejuvenates the upper eyelids, lower eyelids or both. When getting eyelid surgery, Dr. Fishman will make an incision within the natural structures of the eyelid to conceal any scarring. He will then reposition fat deposits, tightened muscles or remove excess skin; ultimately leaving you with a natural, bright-eyed and refreshed look.
Looking for a less invasive option for tightening the skin around your eyes? Consider Ultherapy®, a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that can reduce hooding or skin laxity on the upper eyelids. The aestheticians at our office utilize Ultherapy® ultrasound technology to lift, tone and tighten the skin. The procedure is often performed to enhance the results of eyelid surgery.
Facelift
It’s common for men and women to experience sagging skin and jowls as the subcutaneous fat in the face naturally dissolves starting in their early 50s. However, for many, the wrinkles, folds and loose skin that appear are undesirable. A facelift is a great option for tightening the lower two-thirds of your face and restoring a youthful appearance to your cheeks, mouth area, jawline, and neck. The procedure is especially effective before a person reaches their mid-60s. During a facelift, Dr. Fishman carefully removes excess fat, tighten muscles and reposition/tighten skin, taking years off your appearance and enchancing your natural beauty. For a full facial rejuventation with minimum downtime, consider getting eyelid surgery at the same time as a facelift.
Sometimes younger patients who are not quite ready to get a facelift are better suited for less invasive procedures, such as Voluma XC™. Voluma XC™ is an FDA-approves injectable gel that adds volume and a bit of lift while creating contour in the cheek area.
Liposuction
When you’ve hit a roadblock with diet and exercise and that excess fat just won’t budge, you might consider liposuction, a body sculpting technique that removes fat from trouble areas such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and hips. After one to two weeks of recovery, you will see a noticeable difference in the shape and contour of your body.
For an alternative, non-surgical method to reduce fat and tighten tissue, consider Exilis®, a procedure that uses radio waves to heat and shrinks targeted fat cells, and also improve skin laxity.
