Restoring the Volume of Youth - The Liquid Facelift

The last 10-15 years have seen a dramatic change in how plastic surgeons approach the rejuvenation of the aging face. In addition to the traditional facelift procedures, surgeons are now paying attention to restoring a more natural youthful appearance, which frequently requires restoring volume, to areas of the face that have lost volume. These areas include the temples and jawline, the cheeks and around the eyes.

In my Orlando area plastic surgery practice, I have been utilizing volume enhancement techniques for facial rejuvenation patients for over 15 years. These techniques include facial implants, fat grafting, and more recently injectable materials such as Sculptratm and Radiessetm. Particularly in younger patients, volume restoration is all that is needed to maintain a more youthful appearance, delaying the need for a facelift procedure. In older patients with more volume loss as well as sagging of the tissues such as the cheek tissues, procedures such as a facelift and midface lift, may be combined with volume enhancement techniques.

In the first example shown a Quicklifttm short scar facelift technique was combined with lipostructure fat injection techniques to the cheeks and nasolabial folds for a more balanced and youthful appearance.

In the second case, only Lipostructuretm fat injection in combination with the Obagitm Skin Program and Blue Peel, were used to restore a more youthful and radiant appearance.
