Facial Rejuvenation

Restoring Youthful Contours. Preserving Your Natural Expression.

Facial aging is a gradual process that affects the skin, soft tissues, facial fat, and underlying structures.

As the face ages, changes may include loss of skin elasticity, descent of facial tissues, flattening of the cheeks, development of jowls, changes in the neck contour, and descent of the eyebrows and forehead.

Facial rejuvenation is not about making every face look the same. It is about understanding how each individual face has changed and developing a treatment plan that restores balance while preserving natural facial expression.

Dr. Stephen Park approaches facial rejuvenation with attention to facial anatomy, proportion, structural support, and the relationship between the upper, middle, and lower face.

Treatment may include facelift, neck lift, midface lift, brow lift, or forehead lift, depending on the patient's anatomy and goals.

Facelift

A facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is designed to address visible signs of aging in the lower face and jawline.

As facial tissues descend with age, patients may develop:

  • Jowls along the jawline

  • Deeper folds around the lower face

  • Loss of definition along the jaw

  • Sagging facial skin

  • Changes in the transition between the face and neck

A facelift repositions and tightens selected facial tissues and removes or redistributes excess skin as appropriate.

The goal is not simply to tighten the skin.

A carefully planned facelift seeks to restore more youthful facial contours while maintaining natural movement and expression.

Important: Keep this educational rather than depicting a specific surgical technique unless that technique is confirmed for Dr. Park.

Facelift and Facial Contour

The lower face is closely connected to the jawline and neck.

For patients with changes involving both areas, a facelift may be combined with a neck lift to create a more continuous transition from the cheeks to the jaw and neck.

The appropriate combination depends on the patient's anatomy, degree of tissue descent, skin quality, and goals.

Use a subtle graphic showing how the two treatment areas relate to one another.

Neck Lift

The neck can be one of the earliest areas where changes associated with aging become noticeable.

A neck lift focuses on the area beneath the chin and along the neck. Depending on the patient's anatomy, treatment may address loose skin, soft-tissue descent, neck contour, and other age-related changes.

A neck lift may be performed alone or combined with a facelift when both the lower face and neck require rejuvenation.

The goal is a smoother, more defined neck contour that remains harmonious with the rest of the face.

UVA describes a neck lift as focusing primarily on the area under the chin and along the front of the neck, while a facelift addresses the lower face; the two are commonly considered together for balanced rejuvenation.

Midface Lift

The midface includes the cheeks and the tissues surrounding the lower eyelid and upper cheek.

With aging, the midface may lose volume and the soft tissues may descend, changing the transition between the lower eyelid, cheek, and nasolabial region.

A midface lift is designed to reposition selected tissues of the cheek and midface to restore a more youthful contour.

Depending on the individual anatomy, a midface procedure may be considered when the primary concern is related to cheek descent or loss of midfacial support rather than lower-face or neck laxity.

Use an upward arrow to illustrate the general direction of tissue repositioning.

Do not make the arrow excessively dramatic.

Brow Lift

Changes in the upper face can include descent of the eyebrows, forehead lines, and heaviness around the upper eyelids.

A brow lift is designed to elevate or reposition the eyebrows and improve the overall relationship between the forehead, brows, and upper eyelids.

A brow lift may be considered when the eyebrows have descended with age or when brow position contributes to a tired or heavy appearance around the eyes.

The objective is a refreshed and natural appearance rather than an overly elevated or surprised expression.

UVA similarly describes brow lift surgery as raising low or sagging brows and notes that the procedure may sometimes be combined with eyelid surgery depending on the source of upper-eye heaviness.

Highlight the difference between:

and

Upper Eyelid Skin

This is particularly useful for educating patients who may not know whether their concern comes primarily from the brow, eyelid, or both.

Forehead Lift

The forehead is closely connected to eyebrow position and upper facial expression.

A forehead lift can address selected changes in the forehead and brow region, including brow descent and prominent forehead lines.

Depending on the patient's anatomy and treatment plan, forehead rejuvenation may be considered independently or as part of a broader upper-face rejuvenation strategy.

The goal is to restore proportion between the forehead, eyebrows, and eyes while preserving natural expression.

Facial Rejuvenation Is About Balance

Facial aging rarely affects only one isolated area.

A patient may have:

  • Brow descent

  • Midface volume loss

  • Lower-face laxity

  • Jowls

  • Neck laxity

at the same time.

For this reason, facial rejuvenation requires an assessment of the entire face rather than focusing on a single feature.

Dr. Park evaluates the relationship between the upper face, midface, lower face, jawline, and neck when developing an individualized treatment plan.

Choosing the Right Procedure

Different procedures address different areas of facial aging.

Facelift

Primarily addresses the lower face, jowls, and facial tissue descent.

Neck Lift

Focuses on the neck and area beneath the chin.

Midface Lift

Addresses selected changes in the cheek and midface.

Brow Lift

Addresses brow position and upper facial aging.

Forehead Lift

Addresses selected changes involving the forehead and brow region.

Some patients may benefit from one procedure, while others may require a combination approach.

The appropriate treatment depends on the individual's anatomy, facial proportions, skin characteristics, and goals.

Instead of arrows running vertically through the face, an anatomical “treatment map” would look more sophisticated.

A Personalized Approach to Facial Rejuvenation

No two faces age in exactly the same way.

During consultation, Dr. Park evaluates:

  • Facial proportions

  • Skin quality

  • Brow position

  • Cheek position

  • Lower facial contour

  • Jawline definition

  • Neck contour

  • Facial symmetry

  • Previous facial surgery

  • The patient's individual goals

Standardized photographs may be used to evaluate the face from multiple views and assist with treatment planning.

The objective is to create a treatment plan that respects the patient's existing facial characteristics rather than applying a standardized concept of beauty.

Natural Facial Rejuvenation

Facial rejuvenation should preserve what makes each face recognizable.

The goal is not simply to make the face tighter or younger-looking.

It is to restore proportion, improve contours, and create a refreshed appearance while preserving natural facial expression.

The best result should look like a natural version of the patient—not a different face.

Facial Rejuvenation with Dr. Stephen Park

Facial rejuvenation combines aesthetic judgment with an understanding of facial anatomy and reconstructive principles.

Dr. Park's facial plastic surgery practice includes facelift, neck lift, midface lift, brow lift, and forehead lift. His approach emphasizes individualized treatment and the relationship between facial form, proportion, and function.

Whether a patient is seeking improvement of the lower face, neck, midface, brow, or forehead, treatment is planned according to the individual's anatomy and goals.
