If you’re not feeling joy each time you look at your reflection in the mirror, it may be time to schedule a consultation with the ultimate self care professional!
Dr. Neal Goldman of the Goldman Center for Facial Plastic Surgery is proud to have cared for aging faces in the Winston-Salem area since 1999 – and an ever-growing number of happy, confident smiles can confirm his expertise!
Building during the pandemic and still with a steady rise in popularity, face and neck lifts are the most requested procedures at Dr. Goldman’s practices in both Clemmons and Boone, and now also in Greensboro.
“Our practice is 100% specialized and limited to cosmetic, aesthetic and reconstructive facial surgery,” he shares. The skilled staff uses computer imaging to project a patient’s face and neck from all possible angles and then joins in a heart-to-heart discussion of any potential for improvement as well as limitations for these treatments. Patients are always made to feel at ease – knowing honestly what to expect after their procedures.
Even though “loose” skin is a natural part of aging, a portion of that initial consultation and discussion might include the presence of other contributing factors including genetics, sun exposure, diet and daily stresses which can hasten the aging process. A face lift is designed to remove excess skin and fat while repositioning the skin, muscle and deeper tissues.
Many patients inquire about fillers which are temporary treatments that can work for early signs of facial aging – when the soft tissue and skin of the lower face begins to descend as we age and may be one of the first issues we notice in the mirror! However, the most reliable method for long lasting results is a lower face lift with an experienced, board certified surgeon. Dr. Goldman says that “the best neck lift is a facelift!” Dr. Goldman shares that most of his face lift patients are in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s, but many people begin to examine their necks while still in their 40s.
“It’s not about the patient’s age but more about his or her overall health and outlook on life that makes for a good candidate,” he adds. People come to see us when threads, Botox and fillers are no longer enough.
Always encouraging patients to do what’s best for their present situation, the Goldman team can provide a quicker recovery period with more subtle results with a mini-lift that addresses the skin, but not the muscle layers. Or, they can perform a more modern “deep plane” or traditional SMAS face lift which may mean a longer recovery but will give the incredible long lasting results that women – and an increasing number of men – are seeking.
