FACIAL AGEING involves all levels of the face:

• Skin – Texture, tone, laxity, and pigmentation,
• Volume – Facial Fat and Contours
• Muscle – loss of muscle support leads to sagging. Conversely muscle hyperactivity in some areas can be problematic.
• Bone – Support and foundation reduces

Skin – As we age, collagen and elastin production within the skin slows down. Collagen provides skin firmness and strength, while elastin adds flexibility and resilience. The skin loses firmness and wrinkle formation intensifies.

Volume – Fat begins to disappear from under the eyes and dark shadows cause us to look older and tired. In some cases, puffiness appears under the eyes. Nasolabial lines (lines between the nose and mouth) deepen, and jowls appear. The cheeks flatten and the temple area becomes hollow. Marionette lines appear (lines between the mouth and chin). Lips deflate and become thinner. Lines form around them. A double chin often appears.

Muscle and ligaments- When facial muscles lose tone and ligament weaken, the signs of ageing become more apparent. The skin on your face and neck is attached directly to the muscles. As years go by the muscle tone gradually decreases and the entire face starts sagging. Paradoxically, in some areas of the lower face (for example), the muscle becomes hyperactive and creates dimpling or pulling.

Bone – As we age the facial skeleton bone changes shape contributing to the face shape changing from a youthful oval or V shape to a squarer shape with a heavier lower face.

Facial volume loss is common in men. At Face To Face Medical, we are skilled at customising treatment plans specific to the male face and consider the subtle differences required when treating men compared to women. Facial volume loss options in men can enhance masculinity and attractiveness however if performed incorrectly in men run the risk of feminizing the male face.

We individually assess every face and consider all the subtleties involved. Younger men are seeking more contoured facial features, including stronger, squared-off jawlines, angled cheekbones, and bold, defined chins. Older men are seeking age preventative treatments that keep them looking youthful and masculine. All the clinicians at Face To Face Medical are highly skilled and well versed in the nuisances of treating men.

It is important to consider ethnic background when assessing facial shape, proportion, and balance. For example, perceived ideal lip proportions of the upper and lower lip vary between different ethnic backgrounds. The perceived ideal lip balance of the lower to upper lip is 1:1.6 ratio (lower lip larger) in Caucasians and a more equal upper and lower lip size in Asian or African American heritage.

Each patient has individual anatomy, goals, and facial balance which we consider when customising every treatment plan.
