Many people in their 50’s are fit candidates for one or the other facial cosmetic surgery procedure. Facial signs of aging are typically visible more conspicuously by the time a person is in their 50’s, and some degree of skin elasticity is still there to create highly desirable and natural looking results.
Leading facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Eric J. Yavrouian provides cutting edge facial plastic surgery procedures to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and surrounding communities.
Facelift and Neck Lift
Aging factors, gravitation forces, and sun exposure will cause the facial tissue to descent over time. Volume loss and deep creases in the face, and loose skin in the neck area can appear when a person in the 50’s.
A facelift cosmetic surgery can be performed to re-suspend the deeper facial structures and provide a natural, younger looking facial appearance. Neck line, jaw line and cheek fullness can be restored. The procedure is often combined with a neck lift to achieve more harmonious outcomes.
Facial and Neck Liposuction
In some cases, the patient in their 50’s may still have a fairly good amount of skin elasticity in the face and neck, but may have developed excess fatty tissue in the region. Facial and neck liposuction can be performed to define and sculpt the key features of the face and neck.
People with a double chin may receive only a neck liposuction to improve the neck and jaw line. Experienced facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Yavrouian receives patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas for this procedure.
Cheek Implants
If a person in their 50’s is unhappy about the appearance of sunken cheeks or deeper nasolabial folds due to loss of cheek volume, they may choose cheek augmentation surgery. Synthetic implants may be placed in the cheeks to provide a permanent solution to restore cheek volume and lift the midface.
Cheek implant surgery involves an incision within the mouth, which means no scars will be visible on the outside. Sometimes patients may seek a temporary dermal filler solution such as Juvederm Voluma to restore cheek volume.
Brow Lift
A forehead lift or brow lift can be performed to correct upper face aging signs. Loose skin the brow area can not only make the face appear old or tired, but also partially obstruct the vision. Deep horizontal forehead creases and furrows in the brow can be improved with a forehead lift or brow lift surgery. The procedure is often combined with an eyelid lift or a facelift surgery to create more uniform looking results.
Blepharoplasty
Skin around the eyes can tend to sag and become redundant by the time a person is in their 50’s. Upper blepharoplasty can be performed to remove excess skin from the upper lids and restore more youthful and refreshed eyelids. Bulges in the lower eyelid or creases between the lower lids and cheeks can be corrected with lower blepharoplasty. The medical condition of ptosis can also be addressed along with cosmetic eyelid lift surgery.
