Understanding Facial Aging
As we age, our skin naturally loses elasticity and volume. This can cause wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, and other visible signs of aging. While this process is natural, many people seek ways to rejuvenate their appearance and restore a more youthful look. Facial plastic surgery offers a range of procedures to address these concerns and enhance facial features.

When Should You Worry About Aging Skin?
The first signs of aging become visible on the skin’s surface around age 25. And while with age comes wisdom, sometimes age comes with other side effects we don’t cherish as much.
In our practice, we most often see the signs of aging on the delicate skin of our clients’ necks and faces. Another natural result of aging is a loss of skin elasticity, also called elastosis, which is responsible for the formation of wrinkles and sagging skin. At Barr Aesthetics, we offer facial plastic surgery to address any concerns you have about your skin’s appearance.
In addition to the top layer of skin showing signs of aging, the connective tissue in our faces does as well. We see the effects of this in the ear lobes and even the tip of the nose. Some clients come into Barr because of drooping skin, and together we develop a surgical plan to improve elasticity and connective tissue integrity.

Other Natural Signs of Aging Skin
Elastosis isn’t the only sign that we’re aging; other common tells include:
- Skin thins, making veins more visible
- Loss of pigment cells (melanocytes) causing the skin to pale
- Existing melanocytes increase in size (resulting in “liver spots”)
- Skin bruises more easily
- Chronic dryness and/or itchiness
- Less active sweat glands
- New growths such as skin tags or warts
