as part of the natural aging process, the skin and muscles of the lower face and neck lose elasticity, resulting in jowls and a poor neck contour. facelifts restore a more youthful appearance to the lower two-thirds of the face, from below the eyes down to the upper part of the neck.
Necklift
a neck-lift is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the neck, which over time has developed sagging, loose skin. it is usually used in conjunction with a facelift. in some cases, most often in men, the laxity of the skin is severe enough to warrant direct skin removal from the underside of the neck. liposuction can also be performed at the same time to decrease the thickness of neck fat.
Cheeklift
high, prominent cheekbones or elevation of sagging cheeks can be achieved with a cheek lift. additionally, cheek lifts can help to flatten and smooth some wrinkles around the nose and lower face.
Labiaplasty
women know that all labia are not created the same. photos in magazines offer a view of pre selected female models possessing anatomic features designed to sell magazines. labia come in all sizes with varying degrees of symmetry. large labia can cause irritation and difficulty wearing certain clothing, particularly athletic wear.
Chin Implants
the small, short chin can be corrected with a chin implant. if your bite is normal and jaw reconstruction is not needed or desired, then a relatively simple chin implant can alter the lower face, improving the jaw line and adding stronger dimensions to the lower face.
