hIgh bROwS Surgical correction Rejuvenation of the upper third of the face, or in simple terms lifting of the forehead and tem- ples is an operation that helps not only erase age-related changes, but is also in demand among young patients. It will suit those, who have eyebrows too low, when they look as if they are hanging, make them look tired, sad, or those who, as a result of active facial expressions, ac- quired deep wrinkles on the forehead, for which Botox is no longer a satisfactory solution. Lifting of the forehead and temples with a new tech- nology – Endotine* implants - is the golden standard of plastic surgery. *Endotines - the most modern and least trau- matic way of ixing soft tissues during surgi- cal intervention. Endotines are implants in the shape of thin plates, which, after some time dissolve. Each endothelium has several hooks, which reliably ixes the tissues until the healing is complete, not allowing them to “slide” to the previous place. Non surgical correction If you are one who refuses to undergo a plastic surgery, do not worry. The answer is a combina- tion of a threads and dermal iller application. With facial iller injections carefully placed into the right areas, we can achieve lifting of sag- ging skin and restore the natural position of the brow. Filler injections are minimally invasive, nearly pain-free, and take just minutes to per- form, so you can return to work and your daily activities shortly after the treatment. While the thread brow lift offers rejuvenation of the fore- head with minimally invasive procedure that is performed under local anesthetic. No hospi- tal stay is required and the recovery time is 5 – 7 days. Threads are placed through small inci- sions, during your Brow Lift procedure, behind the hairline of the forehead and pulled to the needed position. Dissolving sutures are used to close these small incisions. A Thread Brow Lift will help reposition the forehead and eyebrows, to achieve a natural subtle youthful appearance. However, in combination with this, several other non-surgical or minimally invasive treatments or procedures may be suitable to achieve the opti- mal rejuvenation of the forehead. ALmONDY ShAPED EYES While going to the surgeon with the request “I want an almond shaped eyes”, it is important to understand that correction of the shape of the eye itself is possible only surgically (an op- eration called canthopexy) and is used quite rarely. Often, to achieve an almond shape eye, it is enough to reveal a natural, beautiful shape of the eye, which is hidden by surrounding tis- sues: overhanging eyelids, tissues in the temples area, bags under the eyes. Not always a surgical change in shape helps to achieve the desired result, but a set of procedures, which may in- clude blepharoplasty and a lifting of the tem- ples, can bring a good results and the change of the eye shape is possible. UNDERLINED ChIN By the way, the procedure is very popular in more than a half of the population, because fashion to have distinctive and pronounced chin still exists. Surgical correction The chin itself rarely causes intense discomfort. Sometimes, it is suicient to correct the shape of the chin so the face would change, became more proportional and the need for serious intervention has disappeared. If there’s a little more fat and scoop to your neck and chin line than there used to be, chin and facial liposuc- tion could be the answer to your concerns. One of the advantages of the procedure is that it pro- duces a sharper angle to the neck and jawline, without removing any of the skin. Subsequently, the skin retracts to create a more deined pro- ile. Non-surgical machinery correction Double chin lifting by Ultraformer III is a com- fortable and convenient treatment. The greatest advantage is speed, no need for recovery and there are immediately visible results. The proce- dure is utilizing HIFU (high-frequency focused ultrasound) energy; therefore patients under- going this method experience straightforward lifting, tightening and contouring of the treated area. mini-invasive correction Similarly, as in the case of brow lifting, the chin can also be lifted and tightened by thread lift. It beautifully addresses the most common phe- nomenon of signs of ageing. Threads have ei- ther hooks or cones and are inserted through one incision in the chin skin; therefore they are able to exert traction and create an immediate lift. They will dissolve in 6 months, while cleverly stimulating a strong supporting frame of colla- gen, which will keep the skin lift with time. Injectables The last option of eliminating double chin can be application of Lipolytic – which provides a safe and healthy way of dissolving fat by inject- ing solution or new unique Belkyra. This “mira- cle” injectable, which was approved by the FDA in April 2015 as a non-surgical injectable for reducing moderate to severe fat on the upper neck, otherwise known as a “double chin” — is likely to soon be approved for other areas as well. (for more information, please see p 16) Please note, that whichever of the above men- tioned procedures seems the most appealing to you, you should irst visit one of our derma- tologists or surgeons for a consultation. They will decide and advise what is the best treatment to suit your current condition. YOUTH CODE 7 | 2017 | 19
