Facial Plastic Surgery

Nowhere does aging leave its imprint more noticeably than on the face. Many factors contribute to facial wrinkling including heredity, stress, sun exposure, inadequate diet and nutrition, alcohol consumption and smoking.

Facial rejuvenation surgery may involve procedures to reduce signs of aging in the lower and mid-face regions, as well as the eyelids, forehead and eyebrow areas. Treatments to minimize fine skin lines may also be performed. Frequently, multiple facial procedures can be performed at the same time.

Your surgical plan will be based on your personal objectives and the recommendations of Dr. Rosenthal.

Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)

The goal of rhinoplasty is to reshape your nose so that it complements your other facial features. Your nose can be reduced by adjusting its supporting structures. If you have breathing problems because of irregularity in the internal structures of your nose, adjustments can be made to improve your nasal airway.

Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

The eyes are the focal point of the face and contribute substantially to your overall facial appearance. Bags beneath the eyes, wrinkled drooping layers of skin on the eyelids, and sagging eyebrows give the entire face a perpetually tired or sad expression.

Aesthetic eyelid surgery can brighten the face and restore a more youthful appearance by reducing the fat and extra skin that cause these conditions.

Facelift

A facelift can reduce sagging skin on the face and neck, helping these areas to appear firmer and fresher. Your bone structure, heredity and skin texture all play a role in how many “years” a facelift can “remove” and, to some extent, influence how long it will last.

Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)

Aesthetic plastic surgery can improve the positioning of your ears if they protrude more than normal. Surgery is possible at any age, but it is often recommended for children as they near total ear development at age five or six. When the ears are corrected prior to the child entering school, the surgery helps eliminate potential psychological trauma.
