- Facial aging is related to skin quality, soft tissue sag, skin laxity, deflation, and shape changes. Pricing is complicated since there are so many options and the best results are with blended techniques.
- The skin quality may need to be addressed especially for patients with a history of sun exposure, like our Texas patients. Many techniques may be used depending on your skin type and the amount of aging present. Skin peels, pulsed light, mini lasers, fraxilated lasers and erbium ablative lasers may be recommended. Our Sciton Erbium and Halo Laser is one of the world’s best. Postoperative skin care is important.
- For the brow, Dr. Mentz generally prefers endoscopic lifting because of the tiny incisions and lifting laterally. It can be used to address glabellar lines or furrows and brow shape adjustment.
- Facelifts require careful measurements and planning. Dr. Mentz believes it requires expertise in all types of facelift techniques to maximize results and provide long lasting benefits. He utilizes MACS, multilayer, composite, deep layer and extended SMAS techniques in the face depending on your specific facial shape and genetics. PRP, Bromolain and Arnica are used to reduce bruising.
- In the neck, it will often require specialized techniques of fat removal, skin tightening, platysmaplasty, myotomy, anterior digastric muscle adjustment, suspension suture, and submaxillary gland adjustment.
- Overnight recovery in our center with close RN observation, facial care and morning hair wash is a nice finish.
