Orange County Facelift

Dr. Kevin Sadati highlights that the Natural Lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that lifts and tightens loose skin on the mid-to-lower face and minimizes the appearance of nasolabial folds. The Natural Lift is an outpatient procedure. Dr. Sadati explains that because this procedure is more conservative than a traditional facelift most patients experience minimal post operative swelling, bruising, and risk of complication.

Passing age forty, sagging of the jowls is considered to be among the initial facial features that contributes to an aging look. This is clearly more obvious for women than in men in my experience. Woman notice the appearance of jowls much quicker than men and are generally more bothered by them. As the jowls droop, that once more sharply defined and youthful jaw line is lost and the lower face appears wider. A more rectangular or square-shaped face is usually associated with an aged look as opposed to a more tapered and angular facial shape.

A turkey neck or double chin in young people is most commonly treated by liposuction. The results from neck liposuction are significantly influenced by the quality of the overlying skin. In younger patients with good taut or thick skin will respond by shrinking and adapting upward to a less obtuse neck-jaw angle. Loose or wobbly skin may shrink somewhat but it will be irregular with band and cords apparent to the eye. When neck skin is loose, the liposuction procedure must be combined with some type of neck lifting or neck tightening procedure called platysmaplasty. One often overlooked consideration in neck liposuction is that of the chin. Should the chin be brought forward or is its projection adequate where it is currently? In the spirit of what one is trying to achieve by removing fat from the neck…a more evident jaw and neck line…the chin should not be forgotten. In some cases, it can be a good complement to the look that liposuction creates.

Liposuction of the Neck/Chin in Orange County

Did you know that a "double chin", or excess fat around the jaw line and neck, can be quickly eliminated using liposuction? It isbecoming an increasingly popular procedure in Orange County, California and can be performed in the office under local anesthesia or in a surgical center under general anesthesia.

Regardless of diet and exercise, sometimes when we age the body can accumulate fat that is hard to lose in certain areas. The neck is a problem area for many. Fat in the neck can make a young person appear older, and a fit person seem out of shape. Liposuction can give this area a new streamlined contour, enhancing the effect of facial features and improving the profile.

A group of friends are hanging out watching Monday night football  and notice their regular spokesperson looks different. They're not exactly sure what happened, and assume their "beer goggles" are distorting the accuracy of their vision. One of the guys looks at his friends and says, "I know what it is, that dude's had a nose job or something. His nose is different!" In disbelief his friends Google the sportscaster's name on an Iphone, only to determine that the sportscaster had indeed undergone male rhinoplasty.

As crazy as it may sound, cosmetic surgery for men is on the rise. The fight to stay forever young and beautiful has become such a widespread pressure in society that even men are feeling the heat, and caving in to cosmetic surgery procedures such as male rhinoplasty, face lift surgery, gynecomastia and more.

While most people can argue that a clean diet and exercise can help stop or decelerate the aging process, cosmetic surgery offers results without the "hassle" or long term effort before effective results are seen. And to boon, certain plastic surgery treatments like cosmetic face lift surgery provides results that most forms of exercise and/or diet would not be able to fix so effectively.

In centuries past, a man's face told the story of his life. The more weathered and wrinkled, the more that man had truly lived.

As time moves forward, medical and technological advances have lead to people living longer and longer. Today, faced with the prospect of a long life leading into old age, a man's face is as much a symbol of the life he has before him as the life he has lived so far.
