Facial rejuvenation comes in many forms, and the ability to choose between surgical and non-surgical treatments helps patients of all ages get the results they’re looking for without always needing to undergo a major treatment.
Dr. Donna Krummen offers both types of cosmetic surgery procedures to her patients. In this post, we will cover the main difference between the two, so you can decide which one might be right for you.
Surgical vs Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation
Preventative plastic surgery has become popular among women in their late 20s, 30s, and 40s, and non-surgical procedures are most effective on this front. Surgical procedures are best for patients who show significant signs of aging, such as moderate to severe skin laxity (sagging) or excess skin on the face, neck, or arms.
Surgical procedures include a facelift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, and breast augmentation.
Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation
Non-surgical procedures are also called minimally invasive or non-invasive. They do not require incisions, stitches, or general anesthesia. These include skin resurfacing treatments, such as chemical peels, and dermal fillers. Injectables like BOTOX® Cosmetic also fall under this category.
You can use non-surgical treatments to address various skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, skin laxity, discoloration, acne scars, etc.
Choosing the Right Treatment
Facial rejuvenation is personal, so you ultimately have the final say in your preferred treatments. Depending on your cosmetic concerns, some surgical procedures may be more effective than non-surgical alternatives.
Dr. Krummen will meet with you to discuss your goals, concerns, and preferences. Then, she will recommend treatments that could help you achieve the results you’re hoping for.
The objective is not only to address your immediate concerns but to ensure the results are long-lasting.
