Facial Procedures
Introduction to Facial Procedures
Facial procedures have become very common, because our faces are the source of our physical expression. You have heard the saying, "you never get a second chance to make a first impression" or you may hear, "I don’t feel my face matches how youthful I feel inside." Dr. Harris and Dr. Raphael can advise you on the many surgical and non-surgical methods to rejuvenate your face and restore what Mother Nature and age have taken away. The surgeons will address your concerns on facial procedures individually to help achieve a look that is more refreshed, youthful, and more importantly, "natural".
As we age a face and neck lift is needed to fix the effects of gravity, exposure to the sun, and the stresses of life can be seen in our faces. 
People of all ages can have problems with aging eye area. The upper eyes become heavy and the lower eyes develop bags and dark circles, leaving a hollow/sunken appearance. Eyelid surgery or a CO2 laser procedure can be useful to correct these issues. 
As we age, our lips lose collagen and fat just like the rest of our skin, and environmental factors such as sun exposure, repeated sipping, pursing and smoking make matters worse. 
We approach the face with the concept of "facial rejuvination", a term that embodies a multitude of procedures from which we can choose in order to achieve the facial changes we are striving for. 
Cheek and chin implants are a great way to enhance a facial profile, improving the overall proportion and balance of the face. 
The laser resurfacing procedure is most commonly used to minimize the appearance of fine lines, especially around the mouth and the eyes. 
Did you know that your nose grows with age? Yes, it’s true! Becoming more bulbous, sometimes a hump becomes more prominent. 
Ear surgery, or otoplasty, is usually done to set prominent ears back closer to the head or to reduce the size of large ears. 
Have you heard, "The eyes are the window to your soul," people of all ages can have problems with aging eye area. This can be related to eyelid skin as well as having a heavy brow.
