Facial
Plastic Surgery
Facial Plastic Surgery can help you to achieve a more youthful appearance, take away harsh features which have arisen through aging or fix a nose or chin which has always bothered you.
Changes
Rapid Lift
Want to minimize the signs of aging on your face and neck without having to deal with a long, costly surgical procedure? Thanks to the Changes Rapid Lift from Changes Plastic Surgery & Spa of San Diego, you now can benefit from a superior facelift procedure that is both fast and effective, performed completely under local anesthesia.
Facelift & Necklift
As we age, we start to lose volume in our faces from fat atrophy; skin loses elasticity as collagen production diminishes, and the result is sagging facial skin and hanging skin of the neck. Facelift surgery, aka rhytidectomy, is designed to minimize these signs of aging around the face and neck.
Eyelid Surgery
(Blepharoplasty)
Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery usually takes one or two hours, depending on the extent of the surgery. In a typical procedure, the surgeon makes incisions in the natural lid creases of your upper lids, and just below the lashes in the lower lids. The incisions may extend into the crow’s feet or laugh lines at the outer corners of your eyes.
Asian Eye
Double Fold Surgery
Unique facial features help characterize each of us and our ethnic origins. Approximately 85% of Asians are born without a distinct fold in their upper eyelids. The change to a “double fold” in the Asian eyelid is considered by many to create a wider or more open eye.
Nose Surgery
(Rhinoplasty)
Rhinoplasty, or surgery to reshape the nose, is one of the most common procedures in plastic surgery and is extremely gratifying for the patient. Individuals born with a certain ethnic or family predisposition they are unhappy with can now enjoy the nose shape of their own choice.
Browlift
A brow lift (or “forehead lift”) raises frowning eyebrows and removes unsightly wrinkles from between the eyebrow and forehead resulting in a more youthful look. The tired, sad, or angry look is transformed into a rejuvenated, refreshed appearance.
Ear Surgery
(Otoplasty)
Otoplasty is usually performed to set prominent ears back closer to the head or to reduce the size of large ears. Ear surgery is often performed on children between the ages of four and 14, although adults ask for the procedure as well.
Fat Grafting
Fat grafting has become a favorite tool in the battle against aging. While body fat is generally considered a bad thing, it is actually very important in maintaining a youthful appearance in many parts of your body.
Dermabrasion
Dermabrasion helps to rejuvenate and smooth the skin’s top layers through a method of controlled surgical sanding, improving the look of the skin by smoothing out fine lines, scars, discoloration, and imperfections.
Tear Troughs
To correct tear troughs, the treatment involves filling the tear trough area to elevate the indented or depressed area until it is flush with the lower lid and cheek. At Changes Plastic Surgery & Spa we use a variety of methods to correct tear troughs.
Facial Implants
Balance and proportion are two of the most distinct characteristics of facial beauty. These characteristics are illustrated by high, defined cheekbones, a smooth, seamless contour of the lower lid and cheek, and a pronounced yet proportional chin, which help to give the face attractive angles and contours.
