General – Dr. Fayman is a firm
believer in “natural look” face lift rather than in a “wind blown” appearance.
In carefully selected patients, a short scar face lift can be applied. This procedure
is performed through an incision concealed within the ear skin creases and cartilaginous
convolutions. Facial rejuvenation procedure consists of a large number of plastic
surgery techniques and maneuvers carefully selected and adapted to a specific patient’s
requirements. These techniques can be employed to refresh faces of patients as early
as their late 30’s and up to severe aging changes seen in patients in their
80’s. Associated cosmetic surgery procedures are often performed at the
same time that can include filling of skin folds on the side of the mouth, rhinoplasty,
blepharoplasty, forehead and neck surgery as well as breasts and body contouring
procedures.
