For many, a time may come when a glance in the mirror becomes disconcerting
due to the discrepancy between your outside reflection and how youthful you feel
on the inside. A facelift can be a great way to restore alignment. This surgical
procedure is the gold standard for addressing loose skin and sagging tissues in the
lower half of the face. However, there may be other contributing factors to your
facial dissatisfaction such as crow’s feet or neck wrinkles. At Boston Center for
Plastic Surgery (BCFPS), we have always prided ourselves on creating
individualized treatment plans that work with your unique anatomy. Our goal is to
deliver the natural, long-lasting result that will make you look and feel more vital.
Here are some of the best procedures to pair with a facelift.
Neck Rejuvenation in Boston
In my opinion, the neck and the face work in tandem. Since I rarely address one
without considering the other, I will often combine a facelift with a neck lift. The
incision is the same for both, and this 1-2 punch allows me to deliver a truly
rejuvenating result. In some cases, however, a patient may not be ready or want a
surgical neck lift. At BCFPS, we lead the field in non-surgical/minimally invasive
neck rejuvenation. The key to a great result, however, is matching the right
procedure or procedures to your anatomy and desired outcome. Depending on your
needs, other procedures to address aging in the neck may include:
• Neck liposuction with Renuvion® for skin tightening
• ProfoundRF®
• Fat injections
• Botox®
Eyelid Surgery
The eyes are often called the “windows to the soul” for a reason. They are the main
vehicle through which we express our emotions and, as such, are one of our most
identifying features. They’re also one of the first areas to show the signs of aging
as the skin around the eyes is delicate and all of those emotions can take a toll.
While crow’s feet can easily be addressed with Botox® and bags under the eyes
may be improved with fat injections, hanging, loose skin in the upper and/or lower
lid is going to need to be excised surgically with a blephoraplasty. During your
initial consultation, we will discuss exactly what combination of procedures will
best deliver your desired facial rejuvenation. Our team takes pride in always being
upfront about the full scope of your treatment plan so that there are no surprises
down the road.
