Surgical Facial Rejuvenation
Surgical facial rejuvenation is best for patients seeking to address significant wrinkles and skin laxity and/or those who want longer-lasting, more stable results. At Metamorphosis Plastic Surgery, patients can undergo the following procedures:
Facelift
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce visible signs of aging by lifting facial muscles, removing excess skin, and repositioning facial tissues. This results in a more youthful and refreshed appearance, particularly in the mid and lower face. There are several different types of facelift procedures.
Brow Lift
A brow lift elevates the eyebrows to a more youthful position, smoothing forehead wrinkles and often indirectly creating a subtle lift above the eyes. It requires excess skin removal and careful tissue repositioning.
Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty)
An eyelid lift addresses excess upper/lower eyelid skin and/or under-eye bags by removing/repositioning excess skin and fat. This rejuvenates the eye area, providing a more alert and youthful look. Eyelid lifts were the most commonly performed surgical facial rejuvenation procedure in the United States in 2023. (2)
Cheek Augmentation
Cheek augmentation enhances facial contours by adding volume to the cheeks, either through implants, fat transfer, or most commonly today… Filler! This procedure is great for patients who have experienced midface volume loss or a loss of definition.
Chin Augmentation
Chin augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances the chin’s size and shape, improving facial balance and jawline definition. It often involves the placement of an implant or reshaping the existing bone structure, as well as the option of filler.
Neck Lift
A neck lift addresses sagging skin, excess fat, and muscle banding in the neck area. The result is a smoother, more defined neck and jawline. This is often performed alongside a facelift, as the lower face and neck age together as a single unit.
Neck Liposuction
Neck liposuction is a procedure that removes excess fat deposits from under the chin, or the ‘submental’ region, enhancing the jawline and reducing the appearance of a double chin. It is often performed in conjunction with a neck lift and facelift or alone as a minor in-office procedure in about 30 minutes.
Ear Surgery (Otoplasty)
Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, corrects protruding or misshapen ears by adjusting the ear cartilage. This surgery enhances facial harmony and can boost self-confidence.
Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose to improve its appearance and, in many cases, its function. It can address concerns related to size, shape, and breathing difficulties. Rhinoplasty can be performed with internal or external incisions, depending on the complexity of the case.
Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation
Dr. Markmann and his team also offer a variety of non-surgical treatment options, which are ideal for candidates seeking less invasive options or a shorter recovery period. These include:
Microneedling
Microneedling involves creating micro-punctures in the skin to stimulate collagen production, which improves skin texture and softens imperfections/wrinkles. Specialists may apply topical serums or elixirs such as PRP, Exosomes, and PRN (Salmon Sperm) after microneedling to enhance results, as the microchannels created by the microneedling process allow for deeper absorption.Morpheus8
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to rejuvenate, contract, and tighten the skin. This treatment addresses wrinkles, acne scars, skin quality, and can improve mild laxity.
FaceTite
FaceTite uses radiofrequency energy to contour and tighten the facial skin of the neck and jawline. This technology uses targeted RF energy to stimulate collagen production, resulting in firmer, smoother skin. It is often considered a minimally invasive alternative to traditional facelifts.
Bellafill Facial Filler
Bellafill is a long-lasting biostimulatory injectable that adds volume to the face. It stimulates collagen production, allowing for results that improve over time.
Liquid Facelift
A liquid facelift utilizes injectable fillers and neuromodulators to lift and contour facial features. This non-surgical approach can temporarily improve mild sagging, wrinkles, and volume loss with essentially no recovery time.
Lip Augmentation
Lip augmentation enhances lip volume and shape using injectable fillers. This procedure provides fuller, more defined lips, enhancing overall facial aesthetics and making the lips look natural and more youthful.
HydraFacial
HydraFacial is a non-invasive, multi-step treatment that combines hydra-dermabrasion, chemical peeling, automated extractions, and the infusion of antioxidants and hyaluronic acid. It improves skin hydration, clarity, and brightness.
IPL Photo Rejuvenation
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy targets pigmentation issues, sun damage, and vascular lesions, including Rosacea. It improves skin tone and texture, resulting in a clearer and more youthful complexion.

Facial rejuvenation provides numerous advantages to patients, including:
- Youthful appearance: Tightened skin and restored volume can present a more youthful expression.

FAQ
What is facial rejuvenation, and how can it help me?
Facial rejuvenation is not a single procedure; rather, it is a group of both nonsurgical and surgical procedures that are designed to help patients achieve a more youthful appearance.
What is the difference between surgical and nonsurgical facial rejuvenation?
The difference between these two classifications of facial rejuvenation procedures is mainly the extent and complexity; surgical procedures often require incisions, more involved adjustments, anesthesia, and downtime. Meanwhile, nonsurgical options offer more temporary solutions that do not require incisions or lengthy recoveries.
Who is an ideal candidate for facial rejuvenation?
All patients considering enhancing their look are encouraged to attend a personal consultation at our office, where they can learn more about their options. Ideal candidates are often in general good health, have concerns relating to their facial appearance, are experiencing signs of facial aging, and can maintain realistic expectations regarding their results.
How long is the recovery period for facial rejuvenation?
The recovery period for facial rejuvenation procedures may vary depending on what specific procedure being performed. Surgical procedures often require about one to two weeks of downtime, while nonsurgical procedures might allow patients to return to their daily routines immediately. Your specialist will provide you with any necessary information regarding your recovery before your procedure, so you will feel well-prepared for any restrictions that lie ahead.
