Q1. How can I look fresher and younger without surgery. What are the most effective treatment with no downtime?
Answer: There are various treatments depending on your situation. There are 4 basics things we do in terms of facial rejuvenation
- Treat the wrinkles & expression lines
- Treat the deflation of the subcutaneous tissue of the face and deep fold – use of fillers or fats
- Treat the skin -Tighten the skin with skin-tightening machines and lasers or chemical peels
- Treat the hanging face – thread lift or facelift
The effective and no downtime treatment method is to combine the treatment for wrinkles & expression lines, fillers/fats + skin-tightening machines.
Chemical peels, lasers, thread lift and the facelift will always have some downtime. If you are looking for a no-downtime treatment, we suggest a non-surgical facial rejuvenation package customized for your needs.
Combining machines that use ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin.
The whole procedure depending on how many areas, takes from 30 to 60 mins, and there is no downtime.
Botox can lift your eyebrows and smooth down your crow’s feet and frown lines.
Fillers or fat can treat deep folds like your smile lines and give volume to the areas like the malar or even the cheek to give a more heart-shaped face like in your young days.
Q2. My children are complaining that I always look tired and old looking. My cheeks are droopy, I have deep folds around the corner of my lips, and my eyelids are also droopy. I am 45 years old.
Answer: With all these complaints, you may be someone who will benefit from a Facelift surgery.
The facelift will easily erase a minimum of 10 years for anyone. It is a surgical procedure that tightens, repositions and removes large creases of the skin around the cheeks to give a more youthful appearance.
The facelift helps to redefine the cervico-mandibular angle, redefine the jawline and helps to elevate the cheeks to give a more youthful position. Sometimes if the neck is affected, it will be treated as well.
The upper brows are lifted and tightened, the excess upper eyelid skin will be removed, and if there is any eye bags, the excess fats will be removed. The entire eye area will be lifted and rejuvenated.
Depending on how much one wants to rejuvenate, a little fat injection can be done to the deep smile lines to soften the lines and to the lips to make the lips look fuller and plumper.
The whole procedures take around 3 to 5 hours, depending on the complexity and how much detail to do. The procedure is done in the hospital under local anesthesia with sedation with an anesthetist. It requires an overnight stay, and stitches are usually removed within 3 to 7 days. There will be some slight bruising and swelling, which will take around 5 to 7 days to recover.
