Alternatives to Botox?
Rhytidectomy
A facelift will lift your sagging cheeks, smooth your
jaw line, and eliminate jowling. Plastic surgery of
the face will also tighten the loose skin of your
neck, remove excess fat from under your chin, and
correct the turkey-gobbler appearance of your neck.
A facelift will NOT (here comes the
bad news) eliminate your wrinkles and other skin problems.
Skin Care, Laser Resurfacing, Chemical Peel, and Dermabrasion
complement a facelift because they address these problems.

Forehead Lift
Brow lift (forehead lift) is a plastic surgery procedure
which will raise your eyebrows to a higher and more
aesthetic position. It will also improve lateral hoods
(which are the droopy flaps of skin that hang over
the outside corner of your eyes. Plastic surgery of
your forehead will also soften your horizontal forehead
wrinkles and the scowl lines between your eyebrows.
A brow lift will NOT improve baggy eyelids, puffy
eyes, or crows feet. Consider eyelid surgery or wrinkle
treatments for these problems.

Wrinkle Fillers
How Wrinkle Fillers Work
Wrinkles are visible because they are lower or deeper
than surrounding skin. Light casts shadows into them,
making them visible. When you see wrinkles, you are
actually looking at the shadow, not the wrinkle. If
wrinkles can be brought to the same level as surrounding
skin, their visibility will diminish because the accompanying
shadows will be nonexistent. This can be accomplished
by either lowering the surrounding skin or raising
each wrinkle. Chemical peel, Dermabrasion, and Laser
Resurfacing lower the surrounding skin. Fillers aim
to raise the wrinkle.

Laser Treatments for Wrinkles
Laser resurfacing is the most common treatment used
for wrinkles and acne scars today. Like many things
in plastic surgery, laser resurfacing goes by several
names: wrinkle laser, lasabrasion, laser peel, laser
surgery, laser vaporization, laser desurfacing, and
several others. Realize that all of these terms mean
the same thing: they refer to the use of the laser
to treat wrinkles and acne scarring.
