In recent years, technology has transformed the practice of facial plastic surgery. Today, we can treat a wider variety of problems than ever before, and we can do so more effectively — with more natural-looking and longer-lasting results, faster healing times and lower costs.
Consider lasers. In the skillful hands of Dr. Adam Stein, these amplified beams of light can vaporize blemishes and birthmarks once thought to be permanent. They can smooth acne scars and iron out wrinkles and treat Rosacea and sun damage.
New tools and techniques allow us to give the face and neck more pleasing contours. Facelifts can now tighten underlying tissue and muscles as well as skin, creating a natural look quite unlike the stretched look of earlier days. Liposuction can remove fatty deposits from areas resistant to diet and exercise. Natural and synthetic fillers can plump up deep furrows and wrinkles, and a vast array of implants can give new definition to flat cheeks, receding chins, and underprojected noses.
For injuries to the skeletal structure of the face, surgeons can use a variety of techniques — from building up depressions with synthetic materials to grafting bone taken from the skull, hip, or leg to an area where bone is missing and/or damaged beyond repair. Broken or shattered facial bones can be repaired by attaching wires to tiny screws placed in healthy bone, or by fixing metal rods or plates over the fracture, among other techniques.
It's no wonder that facial plastic surgery today is sought by a growing number of people who want to improve facial harmony, rejuvenate premature signs of aging, or repair problems present from birth or caused by accident or illness.
