Cheek Lift

What is a Cheek Lift?

During his more than 25 years in practice, Dr. Joseph M. Perlman has seen hundreds of patients who come in, concerned about the way their cheeks have started to sag. Many will push their cheek up and say, "If I could only get my cheek to look like this, I would be happy." These were patients who may or may not also need a facelift. Over the past five years, Dr. Perlman has developed a suture suspension technique that he calls a loop suspension. This relatively new procedure results in a cheek lift for the patient.

Dr. Perlman is excited to be able to offer this innovative surgery to men and women in and around Houston, including Spring and The Woodlands. If you would like more information about cheek lifts in Spring, then please set up a consultation at Advanced Plastic Surgery Centre today.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Cheek Lift in Spring?

The men and women who undergo a Spring cheek lift tend to have cheeks that are drooping because of age. If you've simply lost fullness in your cheeks, then this procedure could be right for you. Dr. Perlman will be able to assess your suitability for a cheek lift in Spring during your initial meeting at Advanced Plastic Surgery Centre.

What is the Process for a Cheek Lift in Spring?

A Spring cheek lift begins with a small incision in the temporal (temple) hairline. A small instrument is inserted and passed down over the lateral cheekbone, passing underneath the cheek fat and entering the mouth just beneath the nasolabial fold (the facial line that runs from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth). The end of the instrument has an opening through which Dr. Perlman passes a suture and brings it back through the hairline incision. He then makes a second pass with the instrument and grabs the other end of the suture and pulls it back. This feature now forms a loop that he can pull to lift the cheek fat pad and the corner of the mouth. The two free ends of the suture are then tied into the firm fascia of the temporal hairline. This gives a firm, reliable lift.

When you meet with Dr. Perlman, he can give you even more details about a cheek lift in Spring. You can also decide whether you want just the cheek lift or would like it performed in conjunction with other surgeries.
