8 Surgical Procedures to Help You Look Younger

If cosmetic surgeons wore black capes instead of white coats, you’d probably mistake them for magicians. These beauty experts know how to reverse the signs of aging. In only a matter of hours or sometimes minutes, doctors can quickly perform cosmetic procedures that leave you looking younger with smooth skin and a perkier pout.

Mini Facelift

Mini facelifts are one of the most common types of surgical procedures performed today. It addresses sagging skin and wrinkles on the lower third of your face using small incisions placed around the ears. By removing excess tissue and tightening remaining tissue, restores definition to the chin and jawline.

Brow Lift

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, does exactly what it implies. As we age, our brows start to droop, leaving us looking worn out, tired and even angry. Furrows between the brows only worsen the problem.

An endoscopic brow lift is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that:

●       Reduces the wrinkles that develop horizontally across the forehead, as well as those between the eyes

●       Improves the vertical creases that develop between the eyebrows

●       Elevates sagging brows that cause hooding of the upper eyelids

●       Places the eyebrows in a more alert and youthful position

Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty

Did you know that your eyes can make you look older than your true age? Genetics play a significant role when it comes to under-the-eye bags and excessive upper lid hooding. It’s not uncommon for your upper and lower eyelids to show the signs of aging before other parts of your face. Upper eyelid hooding and fat deposits under your eyes make you look tired, washed out and even older than you are.

Both upper or lower blepharoplasties are performed for both function and aesthetic reasons. Upper eyelid drooping can impair vision making it difficult to read and drive.

Lifting the upper eyelids gives you a wide-eyed appearance, which will also make you look younger. Many people enhance these results with dermal filler and Botox injections. Bags under your eyes make you appear worn out and fatigued.

Upper Eyelid Lift

If you have significant drooping of your upper eyelids, it can be more than an aesthetic concern. Excessive eyelid drooping can impede your vision, making it difficult to see when reading and driving. By removing the excess skin, you not only improve your line of vision but also benefit from a subtle brow lift, which prevents you from looking angry all of the time.

Lower Eyelid Lift

A lower blepharoplasty tightens these baggy areas by removing excess skin and tissue directly below your eye. In addition, laser resurfacing, dermal fillers and Botox tighten and firm this delicate area, removing the tell-tale signs of aging.

Chin Implant

Your chin is a major player when it comes to looking younger. If your chin is too recessed, it creates asymmetry of your face, which in turn, makes you look older. For women, a contoured, sleek jawline and chin are synonymous with sexiness and beauty. Creating a strong jawline and balancing out your facial features instantly turns back the clock!

Laser Resurfacing

If aging, acne or too much fun in the sun has left your skin looking years older than you are, laser skin resurfacing can turn back the hands of time. From radiofrequency to full-face ablative CO2, the results are nothing short of amazing. Depending on your skin type and the result you are looking for, there are a variety of lasers that smooth, firm, tone and rejuvenate your skin.

 As part of the laser treatments available nowadays, if you have a tattoo that you regret putting on your skin, you can now get this removed. Cameron Pohl discusses all the ways to avoid tattoo scarring and when it comes to looking after your tattoos, these tips may not have been taken on board as well as you’d hoped. 

Consider laser tattoo removals if you’re looking to make your skin look younger.

Liquid Facelifts

Your face is one of the first places to show the signs of aging. In fact, it’s as clear as the nose on your face. As we get older, it’s not uncommon for our noses to appear wider and flatter. One of the quickest ways to reshape your nose and give it a more youthful appearance is by injecting it with dermal fillers.

Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Juvederm or Restylane can slim the nose and even correct small bumps and lumps. Botox is also used under the tip of the nose to give it a more youthful appearance. If your nose has a hooked appearance, Botox lifts it up and takes years off your age.
