In some cases, you may not need a facelift when you could be better served by another type of procedure. In other cases, you may desire an additional procedure in order to have balance and harmony for your face.
Facelift Alternatives: Facelift alternatives may be appropriate for people who are not candidates for facelift surgery. One of these alternatives may be injectables such as Botox to diminish crow’s feet, wrinkles between eye brows and forehead lines. Facial fillers may be other alternatives because fillers fill in deep facial creases from the nose to the mouth. Yet, injectables and fillers will not improve facial sagging. Facial sagging and select wrinkles can only be improved by a facelift. Laser therapy may be advised to help prevent facial sagging and sun damage related wrinkles.
Adjuncts to Facelift Treatment: At times, a forehead lift or eyelid surgery may be adjuncts to facelift treatment. These procedures may be staged in two different treatment sessions for an optimal outcome. Sometimes, injectables, facial fillers, chemical peels and/or laser therapy may be adjuncts to treatment for an ideal outcome.
A consultation is the only way to identify an appropriate treatment plan and to discuss alternatives or adjuncts to treatment with you. Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Gallegos invite you to schedule a consultation at his practice in Albuquerque.
