Lose the Wrinkles with Facial Rejuvenation in New York

POSTED ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AT 12:43 PM  by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Deep creases and fine lines, hollowed cheeks, and sagging skin are all natural parts of the aging process. Gravity, exposure to the elements, and constant muscle use in facial expression all contribute to their development. Using the latest advances in cosmetic facial rejuvenation procedures, patients can minimize the appearance of the most visible signs of aging. Leading New York plastic surgeon Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi has found excellent results by combining traditional facelift surgery with fat harvesting and fat transfer to the face.

 

By using fat transfer injections in combination with a facelift, Dr. Asaadi is able to restore fullness to the face and cheeks and to fill in fine lines between the brows and in temporal areas at the same time that he tightens underlying facial muscles and removes excess skin and fat from the face. With this combination of procedures, Dr. Asaadi has been able to offer his patients dramatic results.

During the facelift portion of the procedure, Dr. Asaadi will surgically improve the most visible and troublesome signs of facial aging by excising fat and skin, tightening the facial muscles that have become lax, and redraping the skin on the face and neck. For some patients, he suggests having blepharoplasty performed as well for a more comprehensive treatment of the face.

Following the surgical facial rejuvenation procedures, Dr. Asaadi will use fat cells carefully harvested from other parts of your body and inject them into areas of your face. The process of transferring fat cells is very technically dependent. In order for the transfer to be successful, the cells must remain intact and viable. The best and longest-lasting fat transfer results are to the areas of the face that see less movement, such as the forehead and temporal area. While fat transfer injections can also be used to add volume to the lips and smooth fine lines around the mouth, the results are typically not as long lasting because the areas are frequently mobilized.

In addition to addressing the visible signs of aging, injecting intact and viable fat cells under the facial skin offers the exciting possibility of a better overall skin quality because of the stem cell properties found in the fat.

While nothing can truly stop the aging process, Dr. Asaadi’s facial rejuvenation techniques combined with fat transfer injections can help turn back the clock by minimizing the appearance of sagging skin, wrinkles and creases, and an overall hollowed look.
