Several factors influence how face and skin age, with genetics, exposure to environmental toxins, and lifestyle choices being just a few. As you age, your body produces less collagen and elastin. These protein molecules give your skin tone and elasticity, which contributes to a youthful appearance.
Facial plastic surgery in Denver can help correct your cosmetic concerns and reveal a vibrant and radiant new-look, so your face matches how you feel about yourself. Call board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Saad Alsubaie to discuss your options today.
Facial plastic surgery is a significant decision that is influenced by a variety of factors for men and women in Denver. For many people, facial plastic surgery offers a path to improving self-confidence, self-image, and self-esteem. This decision is not about vanity; it is about feeling comfortable and confident in your skin.
Facial plastic surgery can also help correct problems that have arisen after trauma or that have been present since birth that—by extension—may be affecting your psychological well-being. Additionally, there are functional benefits of these procedures, such as improving breathing or correcting vision impairments caused by drooping eyelids.
Advancements in medical technology have made facial surgery safer and more effective, including offering natural-looking results with shorter recovery times. The decision to undergo facial plastic surgery is personal and should be made after careful consideration and consultation with a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon, such as Dr. Alsubaie.
There are several types of facial plastic surgery that may meet the needs of our Denver patients. Some procedures require a longer recovery than others, and some concerns may be addressed with certain types of facial rejuvenation techniques. The one you decide on should alleviate your cosmetic concerns, produce natural-looking results, and work within your limitations for recovery time. We encourage you to call the office and schedule a consultation so Dr. Saad Alsubaie can offer you the best recommendations to meet your desired results.
A facelift is the most extensive facial plastic surgery that helps to improve the visible signs of aging, such as jowls that have developed along the cheeks and jaw, deep wrinkles and folds, and fat pads that have fallen or disappeared.
Rhinoplasty may be used to balance the proportions of your face or to help improve breathing. This procedure can change the size and shape of the nose, the position of the nostrils, or correct visible humps or depressions in a nasal profile.
Brow lifts help reduce wrinkle lines that develop on your forehead and the bridge of your nose. They can also raise sagging eyebrows and place them in an alert and more youthful position.
Several types of chin surgery are used to reshape the area, either using an implant or by reducing the bone. Chin surgery is used to improve the balance of facial features and may be recommended to help improve chewing dynamics and dental occlusion.
Ear Surgery—or otoplasty—improves the position and shape of the ear to make it more proportional to the rest of the head. Otoplasty can also help correct difficulties present since birth or that develop from traumatic injuries.
This surgical technique improves the appearance of the eyelids and can remove loose or sagging skin that impairs vision. Eyelid surgery—also known as blepharoplasty—can also address excess skin or bags under the eyes or the fine lines and wrinkles on the lower eyelid.
Several types of facial implants can be used to augment the structure of your face. These are biocompatible materials that may be used in the chin, jaw, or cheeks to add volume and projection and, therefore, help balance your facial proportions.
This surgery helps improve the visible signs of aging on the neck and along the jawline by removing loose skin and excess fatty deposits. Dr. Alsubaie could also correct muscle banding in the neck to create more natural contours.
For patients in Denver, facial plastic surgery is a great way to address specific cosmetic concerns, customized to meet your unique needs. However, these types of procedures should be done for yourself and not for anyone else.
Good candidates for facial surgery should have the ability to take time off work to adequately recover before returning to their daily activities. You should generally be in good health and a non-smoker. Nicotine can trigger complications during surgery, such as impaired healing and an increased risk of infection. It is recommended you stop smoking four weeks before and after any surgery to avoid complications. This includes any type of tobacco, vaping, nicotine gum, and nicotine patches.
Facial plastic surgery in Denver can address any of your cosmetic concerns, regardless of when they originated. It is essential to have all your questions answered so that you can truly make an informed decision about the type of procedure that can best meet your needs. We encourage you to call our office today to schedule your consultation with our skilled and experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Saad Alsubaie.
