Brow lift

Forehead: Forehead and brow wrinkles are best treated with Botox-Cosmetics®.In Germany, Botox-Cosmetics® is named Vistabel®. Only in extreme cases, open surgery may be advisable.

Upper eyelids

Upper eyelids: One of the most frequently performed smaller interventions.

Baggy eyelids

"Baggy eyelids" account for a sad and tired expression and are - falsely - related to alcohol abuse.

Face lifting

Beforehand we would like to make some comments on modern facial surgery: The process of aging leads, amongst others to a loss off tissue and skin elasticity and - more recently recognized as such - a redistribution of the fatty tissues in the face.

Double chin

The most frequent reason for a so called double chin or fatty chin is fat accumulation in the submental area, sometimes additionally in the submuscular (subplatysmal) area.

Chin augmentation

We often see patients asking for nose corrections or double chin corrections who would best be treated with additional chin augmentation.

The following chapters provide a comprehensive overview of the different procedures. Generally speking some trends can be discerned in Plastic and Aestetic Surgery of the aging face. Volumetric approaches supplement skin tightening procedures. Soft treatments with Botox and Hyaluronic acid as a filler have proven to be extremely effective in restoring beauty in the aging face. Most often, these treatments can help to delay surgical interventions. The beauty ofthese treatments is the unprecedented risk benefit ratio.

Just one word of caution here: never, ever let any doctor inject a so called "permanent filler" into your face!!!

Results of permanent fillers can be desastrous! Pure hyaluronic acid has proven its safety over a long period of time and is chemically identical to a natural substance in your body.
