Facelift Scars: How Visible Are They?

A facelift is a surgical technique that restores beautiful bone structure to the aging jaw, cheeks, and neck. A good facelift leaves you looking like a younger, more natural, more subtly improved version of yourself- NOT a tightly-pulled, "windblown," different person.

Both men and women can achieve significant improvements from a facelift procedure. An appropriately customized procedure can make a woman appear more feminine and refined, or make a man appear more masculine with a stronger jawline.

As for the scarring, the modern era of plastic surgery allows scars to be hidden extremely well, so that they are nearly imperceptible, even from a distance of 1-2 inches.

Dr. Devgan hides her incisions in the crease in front of the ear or tragus. She takes care to prevent distortion of the hairline and sideburns, pulling of the ear, and hair loss to ensure a beautiful result.

Horizontal Neck Lines: What Are They and What To Do About Them

Horizontal necklines are a result of excess fat or drooping skin in the neck area. This creates a build-up of skin that creates folds where these necklines are created. Some feel that these necklines are a sign of aging and aren't flattering on their physique. 

With areas of fat around the neck, patients have the option of liposuction which uses extremely tiny incisions, about half a centimeter in length, to suck out the extra fat. Downtime for any liposuction procedure is minimal and results are immediate.

Another option for horizontal neck lines is to soften them with the use of injectables. Dr. Devgan uses a micro-droplet technique for a natural looking result to reduce the appearance of these lines.

For an excess amount of fat in the neck area, patients seek liposuction, however, micro-droplet injectables are a great option for those seeking minor changes that result in no downtime and soften the overall complexion.

Spotlight of the Week: Gold Infused Collagen Treatment Mask

Dr. Devgan's Gold Infused Collagen Treatment Mask is infused with ingredients like collagen, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, vitamin B3, natural mulberry extract, and essence of rosebud to soothe and relieve your skin. When the mask is refrigerated, it can also alleviate inflammation with its cooling effects.

This mask increases the moisture level of the skin and increases collagen production. It also increases the skin's absorption of medically active ingredients and works in conjunction with the platinum Hyaluronic Serum and the Platinum Vitamin C+ Luminous Night Serum, as it improves the effects of these products and the positive benefits they provide for the skin.

This mask is recommended to be worn for a minimum of 30 minutes, however, it can be worn for up to two hours. It can be used three to five times, with approximately five to seven days between sessions, however, the effectiveness of the ingredients may decrease with each use, as these ingredients are most absorptive within the first use.
