Facelifts for Men

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

A facelift can have one of the biggest impacts on your appearance after a certain age. Not only can facelifts help men look younger, but seeing a younger you in the mirror every morning can offer you the confidence you need to face every day with enthusiasm and confidence. One of the fastest growing procedures in popularity is facelifts for men.

A facelift simply tightens the muscles and loose skin of your face, which helps:

Reduce lines
Reduce sagging
Decrease laxity
Increase firmness

There are different types of facelifts available for men, and some of them require longer recovery periods than others. Unlike some procedures, such as liposuction, a facelift is a procedure that is difficult to recover from stealthily. A full facelift may require several weeks of recovery and visible marks.

However, a facelift is also likely to have the greatest positive impact on your appearance. To get an idea of the kind of improvement you may see from a facelift, consider researching before and after images. While a facelift can remove years off your appearance, when skillfully performed it will not change your actual appearance; you will still look like you.

You can learn more about facelifts for men in Jacksonville and Saint Augustine, Florida, and other available procedures on our plastic surgery for men page, or contact Dr. Desai to learn more or to schedule a consultation.

Heads Up - Neck Lifts for Men

Saturday, May 22nd, 2010

When men consider the options available to them through plastic surgery, many overlook procedures that can have a big impact without headlining the plastic surgery world. Neck lifts are one type of procedure that may not leap to mind, but that can have a remarkable impact on your appearance. Many men consider facelifts, but forget that their necks can dictate how the shape of the jaws and chin appear.

A neck lift for men is basically the same procedure as for women. The sagging skin of the neck is tightened, and the excess fat may be removed to create the appearance of a more sculpted, youthful neck. This helps define the jaw line and may create the appearance of weight loss in many cases, particularly with the removal of sagging neck skin.

While you can have a neck lift as an individual procedure, many men request a neck lift in addition to a facelift or to chin or cheek implants. This is usually because a facelift affects only the face, not the neck, which is also affected and marked by aging.

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Not all nip and tucks will give you the overall results desired for a face lift procedure. However, by consulting with a skilled and qualified surgeon, you can learn what procedures are possible for reclaiming the years that have slipped away.

Give too many questioning looks and you’ll eventually notice horizontal lines have formed in your forehead. Over time, those lines cut across youthful skin making you look much older. Gravity and sun damage age the face causing it to sag, droop and fall in places not previously thought possible. Eventually, you’ll spend stolen moments in front of a mirror wondering if a face lift can give you that younger look you see when your fingers pull the skin taut across your face.

More than just a Lift – Facial Procedures that Matter

Lip Enhancement / Augmentation

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

Lip enhancement / augmentation can provide patients with flat lips with a fuller rejuvenated appearance to their lips. In addition, lip enhancement can also improve the fine wrinkles seen around both the upper and lower lips. Your lips can be enhanced to create a subtle change or more to create sexy & pouty appearing lips.

Lip enhancement is performed by injecting a natural or synthetic biocompatible material. Proper placement of the material is important and generally only one treatment is necessary. Depending on the material used, the result may be temporary or permanent.

Patients can return to their normal activities the day following most lip enhancement techniques. Some minor swelling or bruising resolves quickly.
