FACE
State of the art hi tech equipment and new cutting edge procedures have been able to do wonders where the features of the face are concerned and literally create the new ‘you’ exactly as you would prefer. And why not make the best of it for yourself when the capability is available.
LIPO STRUCTURE FACE-LIFT
This combo is swiftly gaining traction. Lipo Structure Face-Lift facelift is conducted with a stem cell injection and involves face reshaping and lifting with the use of mesenchymal stem cells.
Mesenchymal stem cells are obtained from fat through liposuction to deliver longer-lasting, natural results. The beauty of it is there is no foreign object and it is still you. Not only are patients happy with the immediate post-surgery results, but recovery is faster and improvement in skin quality, texture and overall appearance continues over several months.
MIDFACE OR CHEEK LIFT
Midface or Cheek Lift targets the central third of your face to specifically tighten sagging cheeks thereby providing heightened definition and a more attractive jawline and cheekbones. The incisions are placed in your hairline and inside the mouth. The surgeon lifts and repositions the natural fatty layer over the cheekbones to eliminate sagging and creases in the mid-face, such as deep nasolabial folds, and this lift even improves the lower eyelids. This provides a subtle freshening-up with minimal risk and downtime and drops the years with impressive optics.
NECK LIFT
Those crab lines and the wrinkled folds on the neck demanding higher collars on the clothes can be a thing of the past. Mini Facelift or Neck Lift rejuvenates the lower face for patients with minimal sagging but contending with early jowls and excess skin in the lower face and neck. This procedure is performed using incisions that begin just above the ears, go down and around the inside of the small rectangular “tragus” at the opening of the ears, and end just behind the earlobes.
The underlying muscular system, called the SMAS, in the lower face is tightened as per the requirement for an uplifted and smoother facial contour. The mini-facelift is best for younger patients who do not have heavy jowls or significant facial aging. The resulting scars are almost undetectable once healed and the general impression is of having undergone a spa rejuvenation programme without anyone knowing the reasons for looking so good.
FULL FACELIFT
A Full Facelift revolves around the systematic lifting, releasing and repositioning of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) and remolding it accordingly. In our experience it has been seen to offer longer-lasting results with fewer revisions and the new look can last an average of about 10 to 15 years. This is the go-to lift for people with severe facial sagging and laxity, and for those looking for a longer-lasting lift. The results of deep plane lifts are dramatic, especially in the mid-face area (the cheeks, nasolabial folds, jawline and chin). So go for it and look your best and turn heads as you walk past with a swagger.
DOUBLE CHIN LIPOSUCTION
Laser Assisted Liposuction is an evolution of the classic liposuction that has many advantages.
Laser melts the fat, so when the suction is performed the fat cells are already destroyed and the suction is more delicate and less traumatic. Helps tighten the skin and the aesthetic result is really improved avoiding the flaccidity. The recovery of a laser liposuction is, always, faster and better. There is less inflammation, less bruising, less swelling and less pain.
CHIN AUGMENTATION
Chin augmentation procedure to improve the facial balance. Even a subtle change can enhance the overall appearance of your face. Adding definition to a weak chin can also help you counterbalance overly noticeable facial features, such as a large nose or wide brow. A chin augmentation is one of the most powerful cosmetic procedures available. When performed correctly, it’s capable of creating a more attractive profile, defining the jawline and bringing balance and harmony to the face.
NOSE SURGERY
It has to be said that Rhinoplasty or nose surgery can also correct impaired breathing caused by structural defects in the nose, so there is that added medical benefit.
A COMPETENT RHINOPLASTY CAN ACHIEVE THESE MULTIPLE BENEFITS:
- It can adjust the size of the nose in relation to facial balance
- Correct the width at the bridge or in the size and position of the nostrils
- Enhance the profile if there are any visible humps or depressions on the bridge
- Modify the nasal tip that is enlarged or bulbous, drooping, upturned or hooked so that it less prominent.
- Alter nostrils that are large, wide or upturned
- Correct any nasal asymmetry
At Aesthetica we also offer corrective surgery in what is termed Secondary or ‘Revision’ Rhinoplasty. Perhaps in another institution the initial or primary surgery has not been wholly successful and a client is not fully pleased with the outcome. We offer corrective nose surgery that could be even required beyond a secondary operation, such as a third or fourth operation to address cosmetic or functional deformities not properly treated or, occasionally made worse from the primary operation.
Common Problems that Require Secondary Rhinoplasty:
- Nasal airway obstruction
- Collapse of cartilage or nasal bones
- Artificial cosmetic appearance to nose (“Overdone nose job”)
- Internal and external nasal valve collapse
- Worsened asymmetry
- Over reduction or inadequate reduction of dorsal height (bridge height/hump)
- Incomplete shaping (not enough of a cosmetic change)
- Excessive or inadequate tip projection
- Excessively narrowed nasal tip (“pinched tip”)
- Excessive internal and/or external scarring (thickened scar tissue)
EAR CORRECTION
Sometimes a perfectly formed face can be at the mercy of very large or tiny ears that spoil the overall look. Ear surgery, also known as Otoplasty, can improve the shape, position or proportion of the ear. It can correct a defect in the ear structure like prominent ears, microtia (small, malformed or absent external ear), macrotia (excessively large ears), torn ear lobes, or it can treat ears misshapen by injury. The fact is that you no longer have to fret about what Nature overlooked or overdid. In a very simple process the ear can be reformed to settle in with the rest of your facial features and give you that self-belief which might have been lacking. The Aesthetica protocol believes implicitly that you have the right to look your best and feel your best for as many years as possible…and a little longer.
EYE SURGERY
Blepharoplasty or Eyelid surgery also known as the Eye Lift reduces bagginess from lower eyelids and removes excess skin from the upper eyelids giving a completely different dimension to the eye area. Usually done for cosmetic reasons, this is also an effective way to improve sight in older people whose sagging upper eyelids get in the way of their vision. It is a heartening thought that upper eyelid surgery can stay effective for five to seven years. Lower eyelid surgery rarely needs to be repeated. Of course, your eyesight will still age since the procedure does not address myopia or other eye conditions.
It is also important to understand that an eye lift will not eliminate dark circles under the eyes, crows’ feet, or other facial wrinkles and is often done along with other procedures such as laser resurfacing, filler injections, or forehead lifts. What it does do is create a new perspective for the eyes.
EYE BAG SURGERY
There is no other feature on our face that makes us look older and more tired than lower eyelid bags and dark circles. Unfortunately, this feature is usually hereditary, and people who suffer from lower eyelid puffiness (prolapsed fat) develop the condition at an early age. People with lower eyelid bags usually complain that they wake up with puffy bags under their eyes, but this disappears as the day progresses. Over time, this puffiness becomes more permanent and noticeable throughout the day. Most also complain of dark circles under their eyes. Many of the skin-products, creams, and make-up marketed to address this problem are unfortunately, at best, temporary. Lower eyelid surgery is an excellent option for anyone who would like to reverse the signs of aging in in their eyes and eliminate the tired appearance associated with droopy eyelids.
BROW LIFT SURGERY
An arch to the brow is one of the distinguishing characteristics between men and women. A flat brow is not just masculine, but it can give the impression of anger or intensity. People elevate their brow in an effort to appear calm and approachable, and restoring that arch creates wonders in both objective appearance and in the emotions conveyed. As we age, there are several effects upon the eyebrows and forehead. The lines in the forehead deepen, leading to an aged appearance. Additionally, the eyebrows commonly drop below the upper edge of the eye socket, crowding the upper eyelid and cause a furrowed and sometimes angry look in the brows. Brow Lift procedure can raise the forehead skin and restore the brow tissue to its original location, bringing the eyebrows closer to the hairline and opening the eyes.
FACE LIFT
The most well-known label of all, the genuine Facelift surgery lifts and firms sagging facial tissues to restore a more naturally youthful facial appearance by removing excess, sagging skin, smoothing deep folds, and lifting and tightening the deep facial tissues. At Aesthetica, we have truly made an art and a science of this much in demand procedure to make sure that the result is a natural return of youthfulness without giveaway stretching and tightening signs.
