Introduction:
As we age, it’s natural for our facial skin and structures to lose elasticity and volume, leading to a gradual decline in our once-youthful appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, and diminished facial contours can negatively impact our self-image and confidence. However, Dr. Jeffrey E. Schreiber, as a skilled plastic surgeon, understands the value of preserving and enhancing our natural beauty, and offers a range of facial rejuvenation procedures designed to counteract the effects of aging and restore a vibrant, more youthful appearance.

We invite you to schedule a consultation with Dr. Schreiber to explore your facial rejuvenation options, discuss your unique concerns, and begin your journey toward a reinvigorated, confident, and more youthful visage.
Facelift: Revitalizing Your Appearance by Smoothing and Lifting Sagging Skin
A facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to counteract the signs of aging by removing excess skin, tightening underlying tissues, and repositioning facial fat. This procedure can address concerns such as sagging jowls, deep nasolabial folds, and loose neck skin, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more youthful facial appearance.
There are various facelift techniques, including traditional facelifts, mini facelifts, and neck lifts, each tailored to address specific concerns and degrees of aging. During your consultation, Dr. Schreiber will assess your facial anatomy and discuss your unique goals to determine the most suitable facelift approach for your needs.
Eyelid Surgery: Brightening and Refreshing the Eye Area
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, can address changes in the delicate eyelid skin that often contribute to a tired, aged appearance. By removing excess skin and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids, this procedure can help rejuvenate the eye area, restoring a more alert, refreshed, and youthful look.
It’s essential to understand that eyelid surgery primarily targets the eyelids themselves and will not address concerns with crow’s feet, dark circles, or drooping eyebrows. However, eyelid surgery can be combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as a brow lift, to achieve a more comprehensive improvement.
Neck Lift: Slimming and Contouring the Neck and Jawline
A neck lift, or lower rhytidectomy, is an effective procedure to address sagging skin, excess fat deposits, and muscle banding in the neck and jawline region. This surgery involves making small incisions behind the ears and under the chin to access the underlying tissues. Dr. Schreiber can then remove or reposition excess fat, tighten the platysma muscle, and trim away excess skin to create a more defined, youthful neck contour.
A neck lift can be performed on its own or in conjunction with a facelift or other facial rejuvenation procedures to achieve a harmonious, well-balanced result.
Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation: Injectable Treatments for a Subtle, Youthful Boost
For those seeking a less invasive approach to facial rejuvenation, injectable treatments offer a variety of options to address the signs of aging with minimal downtime. These non-surgical procedures can be an excellent option for those with early signs of aging or as a complement to surgical procedures for a more comprehensive result. Some popular injectable treatments include:
– Botox: Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles, thereby minimizing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Results typically last 3-6 months.
– Dermal fillers: Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers like Juvederm and Restylane can help restore volume to the face, add fullness to the lips, and reduce the appearance of lines and creases. The duration of results varies depending on the specific filler and treatment area.
It’s important to remember that injectables offer temporary results and may require repeated treatments to maintain the desired effects.
