Heredity, sun exposure, stress, a lacking diet, alcohol consumption, smoking, and other factors contribute to changes in facial features. Gravity and the unrelenting process of aging also play a role, sometimes dramatic. The result is loss of elasticity. Laxity of skin and soft tissues causes sags, folds, and wrinkles. This can alter the shape of your face. You begin to look older and tired despite the fact that you feel energetic and young! Face procedures at A Better You Cosmetic and Laser in Corpus Christi can “turn back the clock” with enhancements that create a fresh, more youthful look.
Who benefits from facial rejuvenation?
There are basically three categories of patients who seek facial rejuvenation. With a broad range of services, A Better You Cosmetic and Laser has solutions for everyone:- The patient who has sagging and excess skin. Facelift surgery lifts and repositions soft tissues for more youthful contours.
- Patients with early signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss. They may need only nonsurgical and non-invasive treatments such as high quality skin care peels, microdermabrasion, Botox, soft tissue fillers, or fat transfer.
- Patients who could benefit from both, for reduction in wrinkles and sags, as well as improved skin tone and texture.
Facial analysis
There are three primary elements that contribute to facial beauty and denote good health – proportion, symmetry, and a pleasant expression. Dr. Gentile begins each face procedure with a thorough analysis of:- Facial skin
- Eyes (eyelids and brow area)
- Forehead
- Midface
- Neck
Multiple face procedures may be performed at one time to reduce signs of aging in all of these regions. Most of these procedures do not require general anesthesia. They can be performed with local anesthetic or IV sedation, reducing risk of complications.
Dr. Gentile applies a “less is more” approach in keeping with the current trend toward a more natural appearance. The goal is to create a result that is a balanced and harmonious improvement.
