There are many options available today for remedying one of the most visible signs of aging: sagging in the face and neck. While a surgical facelift provides permanent results, injectables are a viable alternative for those who want to test drive a new look or who only need a tune-up.
Modern Facelift Procedure
Facelift procedures used by Dr. Torkian are a far cry from those done only a decade ago. The stretched and over-processed look seen on some celebrities is a result of trying to correct signs of aging by simply stretching the facial skin back. This does nothing to lift the underlying muscle structure, which is the cause of the problem. As a double-board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Torkian is intimately acquainted with deep facial structures and how to correct them. His work is heralded as beautiful and natural, providing his delighted patients with a younger version of themselves.
A facelift can be targeted to correct different areas of the face. The mid-face area is usually the first area corrected; however, patients can also have wrinkles and frown lines corrected by having a brow lift along with a mid-face lift. A neck lift can be done if it is determined that lifting the midface area won’t achieve the correction needed in the neck. Finally, for patients with bags under the eyes or hooded eyelids, eyelid surgery in Beverly Hills can be done either alone or in conjunction with a facelift.
