When you look in the mirror, you may not see the face you remember. This happens to all of us as we age. Lower collagen and elastin production reduces the structure and elasticity of your skin. This produces wrinkles and lines that can change the way you look.
With age, your body may absorb more fat from your face, leaving you looking gaunt and tired. For many people, the way you look does not match the way you feel inside. When you want your face to retain a bright, youthful appearance to match the way you feel, consider facial plastic surgery in Seattle. Our talented team of surgeons specializes in cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery procedures that can help you look and feel your best.
A good candidate in Seattle for facial plastic surgery meets several criteria. These procedures are highly individualized, so you should be doing it for yourself and not for someone else or to meet any type of ideal image. It is important that you have a positive outlook and realistic expectations of what the surgery can accomplish.
Facial plastic surgery can help you meet your aesthetic goals. However, because you are undergoing general anesthesia, it is important that you do not have medical conditions that increase your risk of an adverse event or that cause you to heal slower. This can also increase your risk for postoperative complications, including infection that can destroy the results of facial plastic surgery.
The ideal candidate is also a non-smoker. Nicotine increases your risk of complications during and after surgery. It slows the healing process and increases the risk of infection. This includes any nicotine delivery system, such as tobacco, vaping, nicotine gum, and nicotine patches.
For people living in Seattle, the goal of facial plastic surgery is often to look and feel your best. These procedures can help transform your life, raise your self-confidence, and have a positive impact on your social and professional life.
There are a variety of facial surgeries that can address individual concerns independently or may be done in combination to lift your overall appearance.
A brown lift, also known as a forehead lift, helps reduce wrinkles that develop horizontally and those that appear on the bridge of your nose. It can raise sagging eyebrows, putting them in a more alert and youthful position. Eyelid surgery, also called blepharoplasty, helps remove excess skin from the upper lids, lower lids, or both. Excess skin in your upper eyelids can result from sagging eyebrows, so it is important to have an accurate evaluation and recommendation for the correct surgery.
This surgery is also called an otoplasty and is used to improve the shape or position of the ear. A problem with the ear structure can occur at birth or may be caused by an injury. Otoplasty helps create a more natural balance between the ears and face.
This is sometimes called a nose job or nose reshaping, as it brings greater harmony and balance to the proportions of your face. Rhinoplasty can also improve breathing when there are structural defects inside the nose. During the surgery, your skilled surgeon can address the size, length, and bridge of the nose, as well as correct any visible hump or depression. The goal is to create balance and correct proportion.
The extent of your recovery will depend on the procedure that was performed and whether it was done in combination with others. For example, recovery from a fat transfer to contour your cheeks will be far faster than a complete facelift.
You can expect to receive detailed instructions during your last office visit on how to care for your incisions and yourself after surgery. While each procedure may have slightly different instructions, generally, we recommend you have someone you trust at home with you for the first 24 to 48 hours after surgery. They can help monitor your condition and help you get to the bathroom and bed without tripping and falling.
Before surgery, it is helpful to stock your home with nutritional foods that are easy to make or warm up. You should also sleep on your back to avoid putting any pressure on the incision lines.
Your face is the first thing people see. When you want your face to reflect your inner beauty and youthful attitude, we can help.
