Procedures

Aesthetic facial surgery offers a broad spectrum of treatments to rejuvenate the face’s appearance. One of the most powerful procedures is the deep plane facelift, aimed at addressing sagging facial volume due to aging. This procedure can treat any face where volume has shifted. Factors such as genetics and lifestyle contribute to this process, which can begin as early as 35 to 40 years. As tissue elasticity decreases, these features become apparent and may be bothersome. Dr. Beckers recommends this procedure based on the extent of volume loss rather than the patient's age.

Facial aging usually occurs uniformly across all levels and layers. The upper third of the face, including the entire brow complex, also sags, often causing lateral brow skin to hang over the upper eyelid, almost concealing it. This can be noticed when mascara marks appear on the sagging brow skin. Sometimes, excess upper eyelid skin develops, but it is often the sagging brow skin (also known as “hooding”) that is bothersome, functionally and aesthetically. A brow lift is necessary to reposition the entire brow complex, despite concerns of unnatural results. However, when properly executed, the brow is “reset” without over-lifting. Dr. Beckers prefers the term brow reset.

Lip lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure aimed at enhancing the shape and contour of the upper lip. Its goal is to rejuvenate the mouth area and bring more harmony to the face. The benefits of a lip lift are numerous, with changes visible immediately. Some of the main results include:

• Reduction of the distance between the nose and mouth
• Improved visibility of the teeth
• Appearance of increased lip volume
• Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles around the lips
• Harmonizing the corners of the mouth
• Giving the lips and lower part of the face a more youthful appearance
• Reducing the need for lip fillers

An eyelid correction, also known as blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin (and occasionally fat tissue) around the eyelids.

Drooping upper and lower eyelids can interfere significantly with daily life, and an eyelid correction may provide a solution. Proper eye function also depends on the position and function of the eyelids.

Eyelids significantly impact a person's appearance. As we age, the structures in and under the skin loosen, causing the upper and lower eyelids to droop. This can lead not only to a tired appearance but also to functional complaints, such as restricted field of vision, headaches, and eye strain.

Hairline lowering is a cosmetic surgery that adjusts the position of the hairline at the forehead. This procedure is often sought by individuals looking to reduce a prominently high forehead or adjust the shape of the hairline.

The essence of a hairline lowering involves lowering the existing hairline by carefully removing a strip of skin above the forehead. This is particularly valuable for patients with a high forehead or a natural hairline that starts higher than desired.

Additionally, hairline lowering can be combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as a brow lift or facelift, to achieve a more comprehensive rejuvenating effect. This combined approach allows patients to enhance multiple aspects of their appearance, creating a more harmonious and youthful look.

The nose plays a prominent role in the overall appearance and harmony of the face. Dr. Beckers is an expert in performing nose corrections, also known as rhinoplasty, to enhance your natural beauty and boost self-confidence.

A nose correction can follow two basic approaches: open or closed. The open approach involves a small incision at the base of the nose, while the closed approach is done via incisions inside the nose. Dr. Beckers performs both procedures, depending on the indication. An initial consultation will determine which technique is most suitable.

Nose corrections, of any kind, are among the most delicate cosmetic surgical procedures due to the central presence of the nose in the face, its functional importance, and the precision required. The nose is a 3D structure highly sensitive to changes, so finding a skilled surgeon with the technical ability and foresight to achieve good results is essential.
