Aging Happens Quickly

If you want to feel and look better than you have in years, consult with the experts at Barr Aesthetics. With a wide array of facial plastic surgery options, we can help you undo the signs of aging so you can continue to live your life with confidence.

By evaluating the length, width, and relative fullness of a face, Barr Aesthetics may recommend surgical treatments that will be appropriate for you, and which can lead to the most natural and attractive results. Learn more about some of the common surgical procedures provided by Barr Aesthetics:

These include procedures focusing on facial volume and skin tissue to restore a youthful appearance. Brow lifts and eyelid surgery can correct and improve the appearance of sagging skin around the forehead, brows, and eyes.

Ear repair can correct the damage done by gauges and piercings, turning back the clock and changing the appearance of your ears.

Rhinoplasty surgery is the medical term for reshaping the nose (a.k.a. “Nose Job or Nasal Surgery”).

A facelift (or cheek neck lift as Dr. Barr often refers to it) is an elegant cosmetic surgery designed to eliminate sagging skin and reestablish a more youthful appearance.

Smooth laugh lines and plump the lips with a variety of services that treat the signs of aging in the lower face. From the jawline and chin to the skin of the neck, we can restore elasticity and rejuvenate your lower face.

Restore the youthful contours of your face and replace the volume that the aging process has taken. Fat grafting and transfer procedures can last longer than other injectable fillers and pose very little risk.

Genetically predisposed hair loss is an issue that commonly affects both men and women.

Reduce the appearance of facial scars or paralysis.

The ideal candidate for facial plastic surgery is someone who is in overall good health and has realistic expectations about what any given procedure can accomplish. Other things to consider with one of our doctors are your age, and your emotional well-being considering your worth. While our goal is to help you look and feel your best, it’s important that you’re already happy with yourself as a person before undergoing plastic surgery.

A man or a woman who wants to alter any of the following might be a good candidate for one of the surgical procedures we provide at Barr Aesthetics:

• Appearance of scars
• Brow or forehead
• Eyelids
• Earlobes
• Facial volume
• Hairline or volume
• Nose
• Sagging facial or neck skin

At Barr Aesthetics, we can help you answer these questions and help you prepare for cosmetic or reconstructive surgery, as well as the post-operation experience. Knowing what to expect when wanting to change any of the above can help you better prepare for the surgery itself, and your recovery period.

There may be specifics you’ll discuss with your doctor beforehand but, in general, it’s important to prepare yourself adequately before a procedure. The prep work should include:

• Eating a nutrient-rich diet and reducing alcohol intake
• Quitting smoking
• Maintaining your current level of physical activity before surgery
• Stocking up on medical supplies such as ice packs, pain medication, surgical dressings, and cleansing cloths
• Arranging for someone to bring you home after your procedure

To reduce stress on yourself while you’re in recovery, you can also stock up on easy-to-prepare meals and snacks, and have help managing your household while you rest. Hire someone to walk your pets, get the kids in carpools for school, and take the necessary time off work so you can focus on healing post-op.
