Skin Care Before & After Case 23

Face lift surgery involves primarily the lower face, jowls, jawline, and neck and does not address other areas of the face. As a result, Washington face lift patients frequently require multiple procedures to rejuvenate the entire face, a result that a face lift alone could not accomplish.

This working Washingtonian has a very active life, both at work and away from the office. Sun damage and natural aging resulted in sagging skin and wrinkles that portrayed him as much older than he felt. He consulted with facial plastic surgeon Dr. Chaboki to review cosmetic surgery options, with the understanding that he couldn't be away from work for too long.

His facial rejuvenation procedures involved a lower face and neck lift, lower eyelid surgery, and fat injection via local anesthesia and light IV sedation. Dr. Chaboki commonly performs SMAS type face lift with minimal incisions and fat injections at the same time as face lift or eyelid surgery for multiple layer rejuvenation. After the initial healing from plastic surgery, he started a skin care program with Dr. Chaboki to further reduce signs of aging. His neck has an improved contour, and the eyelid bags have reduced. Most importantly, his appearance better demonstrates the youthful vigor that he has always had.
