In this post, we discuss:
What Is Facial Balancing?
Facial balancing is a customized aesthetic approach that enhances facial symmetry and proportion using treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, and facial plastic surgery. It focuses on improving how facial features work together rather than treating one area in isolation.
With each procedure, Dr. Salas prioritizes excellence and attention to detail. As a Harvard-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon, he blends technical skill and precision in and out of the operating room.
The art of facial balancing begins with understanding your unique features and where you experience laxity, volume loss, and a lack of definition.
Dr. Salas intentionally assesses your cheeks, chin, nose, and jawline to create a seamless relationship between your facial structure, not just one individual part.
As Dr. Salas examines your face, he begins crafting a treatment plan that helps you look natural and refreshed, but still you. With a detailed approach, he plans how to enhance your overall appearance by adding volume, treating loose skin, and sharpening your contours.
Let’s explore how Dr. Salas creates facial harmony for his patients through nonsurgical aesthetics and plastic surgery.
Nonsurgical Facial Balancing With Injectables
For patients unsure about the commitment to plastic surgery, Dr. Salas uses injectables to enhance their features. Whether it’s adding definition or slimming your appearance, he creates a comprehensive approach that addresses each goal.
Keep reading to learn about how Dr. Salas uses nonsurgical treatments for facial balancing in Pembroke Pines.
Botox for Facial Balancing
Botox is commonly used for facial balancing to slim the jawline, lift the brows, soften wrinkles, and improve facial symmetry without surgery.
You might recognize Botox as a leading wrinkle treatment, but the powerful injectable also can enhance facial symmetry with targeted injections.
Botox softens your expression and prevents deep wrinkles from forming, as it relaxes muscle movements in a controlled manner.
When Dr. Salas injects Botox into targeted muscles, the injectable takes effect and blocks nerve signals, preventing the muscles from contracting as usual. The result: a refreshed, youthful appearance that’s not restricted.
How Botox Enhances Facial Balance
By placing injections in overactive muscles, Dr. Salas can enhance facial symmetry and proportion.
Dr. Salas can use Botox injections in specific areas to provide:
- A nonsurgical brow lift that lifts and shapes the eyebrows for a more awakened appearance. Targeting muscles around the eyes and forehead can make the eyes appear more open and raise the eyebrows.
- Facial slimming by treating overactive masseter muscles in the jaw. Botox injections help create a V-shaped jaw and reduce a boxy appearance.
- A lip flip, by relaxing the muscles in the upper lip that can curl under when smiling or talking. This gives the illusion of a fuller upper lip.
- Chin smoothing, which reduces a dimpled appearance. Chin Botox in the mentalis muscle gives harmony to the lips, chin, and jaw.
- An upturned mouth, by relaxing the DAO muscles that typically pull the cheeks and sides of the mouth downward. Botox gives a balanced, lifted effect to the lower face.
By carefully assessing your features, Dr. Salas understands where to place injections to meet your aesthetic goals. Many patients get a natural-looking balance by combining Botox with fillers.
Dermal Fillers for Facial Balancing
In Pembroke Pines, dermal fillers help restore volume, enhance contours, and improve facial proportions. Hyaluronic acid fillers are strategically injected into areas like the cheeks, jawline, chin, and lips to create a balanced, youthful appearance.
Dermal fillers are a hyaluronic acid-based gel that retains moisture and provides structure to your features. Dr. Salas intentionally places the injections to improve the symmetry and balance of your overall appearance.
How Fillers Enhance Facial Balance
When Dr. Salas injects dermal fillers into specific areas of the face, he does so with an artistic touch that helps enhance your natural beauty.
Fillers can add volume and sharpen contours in your:
- Cheeks: Dr. Salas can provide a sculpted and lifted effect to the cheeks by adding lost volume and balancing the mid-face.
- Jawline: Dermal fillers can sharpen the jawline, define the lower face, and correct early signs of jowls.
- Lips: Using lip fillers, Dr. Salas can enhance the symmetry, shape, and size of the lips, giving a more harmonious appearance to the lower face.
- Temples: Adding filler to the temples can correct a hollowed appearance and provide a more youthful balance to the upper face.
No matter what your goals are with nonsurgical facial balancing in Pembroke Pines, Dr. Salas makes your experience personalized. He works tirelessly to achieve your goals with injectable treatments like Botox and fillers.
Surgical Facial Balancing for Long-Lasting Harmony
Dr. Salas’ expertise shines through during facial plastic surgery. As he tightens, restores, and shapes your features, you can achieve a harmonious appearance.
At times, nonsurgical approaches can have their limitations when it comes to addressing muscle tone and skin laxity. For patients who are experiencing more significant signs of aging, Dr. Salas might recommend a facelift, neck lift, or other plastic surgery procedures to better address their aesthetic goals.
Facelift: Full-Face Harmony
Dr. Salas provides facelifts (rhytidectomies) to address multiple layers of the face: skin, muscle, and volume. He takes a technical approach to contouring your features, tightening the skin, and restoring tissue to provide striking results.
Here’s what you can expect from a professional facelift by Dr. Salas.
Tightening Skin
Dr. Salas begins with a precise incision around your temples and hairline, following the back of the ears, and ending at the lower scalp. This allows him to gently release and redrape the skin into a more youthful position.
By repositioning the skin, Dr. Salas refines facial contours and improves skin laxity.
Repositioning Muscle
While working with the skin, Dr. Salas also addresses the muscles in the area. He restores muscles to their original positions for a more natural and youthful look. This provides a structural lift, allowing your appearance to look refreshed and rejuvenated.
Enhancing Volume
To restore lost volume and further sculpt your features, Dr. Salas often uses a fat transfer. This process uses fat removed from your body to refine undereyes, cheekbones, and other hollowed areas of the face.
Once Dr. Salas repositions tissues and adds volume, he carefully closes your incisions with technical skill to minimize scarring. Facelifts don’t stop the aging process altogether, but the results can last for 10 to 15 years.
Dr. Salas may recommend prolonging the results of your facelift with Botox, fillers, or other nonsurgical treatments from The Love Medspa.
Other Facial Plastic Surgery
Depending on your goals, Dr. Salas might recommend additional procedures with your facelift to achieve ultimate facial balancing. In Pembroke Pines, he performs rhinoplasties, eyelid lifts, and neck lifts to enhance your facial symmetry.
Rhinoplasty
Commonly referred to as a “nose job,” a rhinoplasty can improve balance and proportion on the face. Dr. Salas crafts your ideal proportions and desired refinements, so you can finally love your nose.
By honing in on the center of the face, an artfully crafted nose can enhance the overall balance and structure.
A rhinoplasty improves facial harmony by:
- Addressing dorsal humps
- Straightening crooked noses
- Restructuring wide nostrils
Eyelid Lift
As a facelift focuses on the lower half of the face, eyelid lifts can reawaken your gaze and promote a luxurious appearance. Dr. Salas performs a blepharoplasty by sculpting the eyelids and eyebrows, fat pads, and removing excess skin.
Dr. Salas can reduce the appearance of:
- Under-eye puffiness by skillfully shaping fat pads
- Reduce under-eye creases by repositioning the skin
- Refine eyelid contours by removing excess skin
Neck Lift
Often paired with a facelift, a neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) addresses jowls and excess skin on the lower jaw. Dr. Salas tightens skin, repositions muscles, and enhances your contours for a refined appearance.
By addressing tissues in the neck, Dr. Salas can:
- Reduce a double chin by tightening the skin and muscle
- Sharpen your jawline by removing excess skin for a refined contour
- Soften prominent neck bands by smoothing out the neckline
Depending on your unique aesthetic goals, Dr. Salas creates a comprehensive approach to your facial balancing. In Pembroke Pines, he uses his surgical precision and artistry, combining procedures to help his patients achieve the appearance they have always dreamed of.
