Facial aging is an inevitable and progressive process characterized by sagging in the midface with deepening creases beneath the eyes and alongside the mouth, jowling and loose skin of the neck. Facelift surgery ("rhytidectomy") can safely reverse the signs of aging and restore a more youthful appearance without looking tight or unnatural. During your initial consultation, Baltimore facelift surgeon Dr. Woodyard will review your best options and help determine if you can benefit from a full facelift or a limited incision facelift.
If you are bothered by frown lines or a low, sagging brow and hooding of the upper eyelids, a browlift or forehead lift may be right for you. Brow/forehead lifts can be performed endoscopically through small incisions within the hairline or by an open surgical technique depending upon the degree of correction required and hairline position. A browpexy (surgical procedure strictly elevating eyebrow position) can be performed through an upper eyelid incision usually in conjunction with blepharoplasty(eyelid rejuvenation surgery). Doctor Woodyard can remove that" tired" or "angry" expression by elevating the brow and/or forehead to a more youthful position and thereby open up your eyes and refresh your appearance.
Often referred to as "the window to the soul", the eyes are considered the most expressive part of the face but they are also frequently the first area of the face to reveal the visible signs of aging. Drooping of the upper lids, deepening crowsfeet and puffiness or "bags" beneath the eyes can add years to your appearance in addition to creating a fatigued or stern expression. Doctor Woodyard uses the most advanced blepharoplasty techniques to reposition or remove excess fat, redrape and tighten the surrounding skin and muscle to take years off of your appearance with a surprisingly short recovery time.
For some, wrinkles and sagging skin on the neck can be more noticeable than those on the face. If this is the case for you, you may want to see Doctor Woodyard regarding necklift surgery, sometimes referred to as "cervicoplasty" or "cervical rhytidectomy." She can also remove excess fat with liposuction at the same time. With careful precision and through small incisions, she can remove the excess skin and fat that contribute to an aged appearance. The outcome is a smoother more attractive, rejuvenated neckline that you will be proud to show off.
Dr. Woodyard is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) and has more than 18 years of experience.
