Nonsurgical Options for Facial Contouring and Rejuvenation

In the world of nonsurgical and surgical facial rejuvenation, people of varying ages can regain their facial contours and youthful volume. While surgical options such as a San Diego facelift and lower limited facelift offer outstanding results, there are non-operative treatments that people may also consider.

Those interested in nonsurgical San Diego facial rejuvenation may range from their thirties and above. Every patient should be afforded with options.

Some patients might have specific areas that need to be addressed, such as crow’s feet, loss of cheek volume or lines around their mouth. These facial changes can be caused by premature skin damage caused by sun overexposure or the natural process of aging. 

As a way to take care of these concerns, plastic surgeons across the country are offering an array of cosmetic injections as a way to begin the facial rejuvenation and facial contouring process. These treatments are very popular because of their smooth, simple application. 

For example, Botox is one of the most popular and well-recognized treatments for fine lines and wrinkles that occur along the forehead. If an individual has lines from a furrowed brow, or has crow’s feet around the eyes, San Diego Botox has been used to take care of those areas. To date, this cosmetic injection is one of the top choices in lessening the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movement.   

Another sought after product is Voluma, which is true to its name in adding volume to the face, specifically in the cheek area. Once the series of injections is done, patients have long-lasting results from this treatment for up to two years in some patients. 

One fairly new treatment that has begun to gain attention from both doctors and patients is a cosmetic injection called Kybella. This cosmetic injection requires a treatment plan varying from two to five visits. San Diego Kybella contains the active ingredient of deoxycholic acid that destroys fat thereby eliminating the appearance of double chins in patients. The recommended protocol is a treatment every six to seven weeks. 

There are a variety of options in regards to cosmetic injections. Plastic surgeons welcome patients to do their research and arrive to their consultation with any questions that they may have. Teaming up with a medical professional such as a plastic surgeon who is adept in facial anatomy is essential for an outstanding treatment outcome. Above all, they can determine whether or not a person is a good candidate for a particular cosmetic injection. Another top choice is an aesthetic nurse specialist (a nurse that has been specially trained for these types of treatments) who works alongside a plastic surgeon. 

A highly qualified office will have various options for the patient to consider, in addition to having before and after pictures to see the results of treatments on other patients. By having a medical professional give suggestions, a patient can feel confident with the way their treatment is approached - the main goal of the plastic surgeon’s office is to make each patient happy with their physical appearance with natural-looking results.
