About Facial Rejuvenation

Facial rejuvenation is designed to improve the appearance of the face by reducing visible signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, and uneven skin texture. This can be achieved through both surgical and non-surgical methods. Individuals may desire facial rejuvenation to regain self-confidence, enhance their natural beauty, or simply feel younger. (1) The face is one of the first areas where the signs of aging become apparent, making these rejuvenation techniques essential for many individuals looking to revitalize their appearance.

Among the various facial rejuvenation options are Botox, facial fillers, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser resurfacing, skin tightening, facelift surgery, dermal rejuvenation, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. (2) Each of these methods targets different issues affecting the face; some focus on wrinkle reduction, while others target overall facial contouring or skin texture improvement.

Many patients choose to combine multiple methods for a complete transformation, tailored specifically to their unique needs. Facial rejuvenation continues to evolve with advancements in aesthetic medicine, allowing for safer, more effective procedures with minimal downtime.

Facial Rejuvenation Procedures

The methods employed in your procedure and its execution will vary depending on what procedures you receive and what issues are being addressed. However, all procedures are performed by either Dr. Grunberg or another qualified provider and prioritize attentive, personalized care.

AccuTite

AccuTite is an innovative treatment that uses high-frequency radio waves to stimulate lipolysis, the process of killing and permanently removing fat cells. These high-frequency radio waves generate heat energy that gently causes fat cells to die in the targeted areas. (3) This temperature rise also stimulates the production of collagen, which is our body’s main structural protein and helps keep the skin tight and youthful. As the fat melts away after exposure to radiofrequency waves, collagen production is stimulated. This treatment is particularly effective for reducing “double chins,” also known as submental fullness, but it can also be effective around the jawline, cheeks, eyes, and more.

BBL Forever Clear for Acne

BroadBand Light (BBL) Forever Clear is an intense pulsed light treatment targeted at reducing acne and treating its underlying causes. BBL Forever Clear uses the Sciton Joule X light delivery system. This technology delivers rapid pulses of broad-spectrum light to the skin. (4) The bacteria that cause acne absorb this light, and their temperatures rise as a reaction. This destroys the bacteria and prevents acne from worsening.

Cheek Augmentation

Cheek augmentation is a procedure that enhances the contours of the face by altering the cheeks. There are a few different methods in this procedure, including implants, fat transfers, buccal fat pad removal, and more. Non-surgical treatments like Restylane and Juvederm can also be used to enhance the appearance of the cheeks. (2)

Evoke Chin and Jawline Sculpting

The Evoke chin and jawline sculpting device is a wearable device that contours the chin and jaw with radiofrequency waves. This treatment is quite effective for reducing jowls, “turkey necks,” and “double chins” while also sculpting sharp, attractive jawlines. In this treatment, radio waves slowly heat up and kill off burdensome fat cells. These cells are then removed by your body’s lymphatic and metabolic systems. This process stimulates collagen production.

Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure that rejuvenates the eyelids and surrounding areas. As our faces age, the areas around our eyes can lose volume and form under-eye bags. By strategically removing excess, drooping skin, tightening muscles, and repositioning fat, a patient’s eyes appear more youthful and alert.

Facelift

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is one of the most common surgical rejuvenation procedures performed around the world. As we age, factors like pollution, stress, genetics, gravity, and more cause our faces to display signs of aging like wrinkles, sagging skin, and volume loss. A facelift employs precise surgical techniques to remove excess skin and tighten facial muscles. On average, patients emerge from a facelift looking 5-10 years younger.

FaceTite

FaceTite is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses heat to melt away fat and increase collagen simultaneously. In this treatment, a small metal wand is inserted beneath the skin. This wand transmits heat to surrounding fatty tissues, causing them to melt and be removed by the body. This temperature increase also causes collagen to be produced, which tightens the skin over time.

Neck Lift

The neck lift is another common facial rejuvenation procedure. Oftentimes, these are performed in the same treatment session as facelifts. Lax, aging skin on the face will often affect the neck as well, leading to “turkey necks,” “double chins,” and jowls. By removing excess skin and tightening the muscles, surgeons can sculpt smooth, angular jawlines and chins.

Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)

Rhinoplasty is a procedure that focuses on reshaping the nose to meet a patient’s ideal image. Many individuals find that their nose does not meet their ideal image; whether it be too small, too large, too pointy, has a protruding bridge, or more. Rhinoplasty amends these issues by sculpting a nose that looks natural and harmonizes with one’s facial features..

FAQ

What is the best age to receive a facial rejuvenation procedure?

There is no specific age that dictates when one should seek facial rejuvenation; it largely depends on individual aesthetic goals and the visible signs of aging present.

How long do facial rejuvenation results last?

Results from nonsurgical treatments typically last between three to six months, while dermal fillers can range from several months up to two years. Surgical options, like facelifts, can yield results that last for many years.

Is facial rejuvenation painful?

Most patients report minimal discomfort during non-surgical treatments, as topical anesthetics are applied before injections. For surgical procedures, anesthesia is administered to reduce pain, and any discomfort post-op can generally be managed effectively with prescribed medication.

Can facial rejuvenation treatments be combined?

Yes! Combining different facial treatments often yields more comprehensive results. Dr. Grunberg can discuss viable combinations during your consultation.

How should I prepare for my facial rejuvenation procedures?

Patients should refrain from using blood-thinning medications or supplements before the procedure and stop smoking to support better healing. Patients will receive more specific preparation instructions depending on the procedures they plan to undergo and their medical history.
