3 Facial Surgeries to Consider in 2024

The face is widely considered to be a significant factor in forming initial impressions, as it is typically the primary focal point when others observe you. While it is common for individuals to have concerns about their facial appearance, it is important to be aware of the available options for specific facial cosmetic surgery options.

The gap between your present facial appearance and your desired facial appearance can often be addressed by rectifying a specific facial feature, rather than necessitating a complete facial reconstruction. Dr. Racanelli performs specific facial cosmetic surgeries that can leave you with a more youthful and aesthetic appearance that you’ll be ready to show off in 2024.

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is the most popular facial surgery on the market today. There are a few variations of rhinoplasty. A cosmetic rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure primarily performed for aesthetic purposes, focusing on enhancing the appearance of the nose. It is a process that alters the shape of the nose to improve its aesthetic appeal. Functional rhinoplasty refers to a surgical procedure aimed at enhancing the nasal breathing capabilities. Reconstructive rhinoplasty is carried out to address nasal deformities that occur because of nasal trauma or procedures involving the removal of cancer.

During a consultation with Dr. Racanelli, we will determine which type of rhinoplasty, or which combination of the discussed options, is right for you.

Forehead Lift

A forehead lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that repositions the forehead, raising the brow and reducing wrinkles in order to enhance the patient’s facial appearance with a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing outcome.

As individuals grow older, the skin decreases in its elasticity. The combined effect of sun damage can weaken the skin, while the gravitational force causes the brow to sag, leading to the development of wrinkles. You might have frown lines on your forehead, located between your eyebrows, which can make you seem overly serious or possibly even angry. Horizontal lines may appear on your forehead that show your aging. The outer region of your brow might undergo a sagging effect, which can lead to a sad or weary look due to the presence of drooping eyebrows.

A forehead lift can help put these problems to rest, turn back the years, and give you a more youthful look.

Eyelid Surgery

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure that alters the appearance of the upper and/or lower eyelids. The goal is to improve the appearance of the eye area and address any vision issues caused by drooping eyelids.

The eyes often tend to be the first facial features to show signs of aging, as the effects of gravity result in the downward displacement of skin and soft tissues. This results in the development of dermatochalasis, which shows in the form of excess skin and baggy under-eyes.

An eye lift addresses these concerns by removing excess skin and fat, rejuvenating the eyes, and restoring a more youthful appearance.
