Total VolumeLift Instead of Mid-Facelift Before and After Photos - Augusta and Evans GA

• Mid-Facelift - Total VolumeLift
• Mid-Face Rejuvenation

Surgeon: Achih H. Chen, MD, FACS

65 year old woman who had significant volume loss of the mid-face region. This caused the cheek region to sag downward, similar to a balloon that has lost air. This loss of volume caused her nasolabial folds or "parenthesis" to look prominent. Traditional tightening of the mid-face area with mid-facelift widens and tightens the mid-face area, creating an unnatural appearance. Instead, restoring volume creates a natural-appearing rejuvenation of the mid-face. She underwent the Total VolumeLift or mid-face rejuvenation by Facial Plastic Surgery Dr. Achih H. Chen located in Evans, GA to re-create youthful volume. She also underwent facelift surgeryand laser skin resurfacing. The photos were taken 2 1/2 weeks after surgery without make-up. As a result, she is still pink, although make-up would completely cover her pinkness. The pinkness of her skin will completely resolve. 

Details: The red arrows point to the loss of volume of the midface and how volume replacement recreates the fullness of youth. Notice how the loss of volume of the midface seems to deepen the nasolabial fold (parentheses around the mouth) as the midface sags from deflation. Midface implants re-volumize the cheek region.
