Face

Chin and Cheek Profile
A too-small chin or a too-level cheek can be built up by an incision in the interior of the mouth or in the crease under the chin. A silicone cushion, or also materials produced naturally in the body, such as bone, are often used.

Forehead
Drooping eyebrows, horizontal and vertical forehead wrinkles can be corrected by an entrance incision on the frontal hairline or above that in the hair region. For this purpose, an endoscope is used to keep the operation area as small as possible.

Eyelids
So-called lachrymal sacs are nothing more than fatty tissue which has reached forwards by slackening of the orbicularis oculi (eye ring) muscle and the connective tissue. It is removed carefully or shifted back to its original site. On the upper eyelids a spindle-shaped piece of skin is usually removed to restore the original shape.

Facial wrinkles
Small wrinkles can be smoothed by subcutaneous injection of hyaluronic acid, body fat or by means of Botox. Where larger wrinkles are concerned, a face lift, the extent of which is individually planned, will help. What is known as a cervicofacial lift includes the neck and the whole face with forehead region. If only one area is afflicted with wrinkles, only that area is planned for surgery. In addition, individual consideration must also be given to whether only the skin is treated surgically or also underlying structures such as SMAS (subcutaneous muscle aponeurotic system), muscles (platysma) or periosteum. The suctioning of subcutaneous fat also belongs to the aesthetic plastic surgical treatment of the neck and face.
