Why More People Choose New York City For Facelift Surgery

By Andrew W John

Your skin care regime should include your face as it is like a calling card and the first thing people see when they first meet you. Although using face creams helps to keep the skin soft and supple, facial exercise movements can have a huge impact on the cells because of the extra oxygen that is put back into the skin with the benefit of removing toxins through the pores at the same time.

The most common cosmetic surgery procedures are face lifts; liposuction, breast enhancement, "nose jobs" and "tummy tucks" are also very popular but this is by no means the extent of what a cosmetic surgeon can do for you.

Facelifts remove aging lines and other wrinkles that usually, but not always come with age and the medical term for the procedure is Rhytidectomy. People who have facelifts often show indications of improved health but studies are now showing a correlation between the facelift and improved life expectancy of the patient. Face lifts help mask the natural signs of aging by pulling the skin tight and removing wrinkles and bags.

Micro pigmentation for example, can increase definition of the eyes, lips and eyebrows and this definition lights up the face so you appear more alert and attractive. The amount of work that can be carried out to improve the face is almost endless and includes, hair restoration, cheek and chin re-shaping, lip surgery and laser hair removal to name but a few.

Of all the areas on the face it is probably the chin that gets noticed the most because of how other features are in line with such as the jaw and nose for example. To look our very best, every part of our face must blend with the others and so increasing numbers of individuals are having eyelid and eyebrow lifts to enhance the look of their eyes. Many people who had a low self esteem prior to cosmetic treatment have confessed to a complete reversal once they have seen the result of changes made to their features.

It is now possible to adjust the facial features buy adding implants or injecting collagen to strengthen the appearance. Collagen injection treatments are not permanent but can help with the shape of lips, fill out facial creases and sunken areas. The problem with this type of treatment and most facial procedures is there is certain amount of tenderness, bruising and swelling around the area that has been treated and often numbness as well. A new treatment to be used is Hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurs in the body and acts as lubricating agent and when injected into the face, reduces the signs of aging.

Depending on the treatment or treatments you decide upon, they will all physically reduce the normal signs of aging.

Remember that whatever the effect of cosmetic surgery may be on your appearance, you are still the same person inside. - 16650
