Museum District Aesthetic Plastic Surgical Center, AlwaysYouthful.com, Offers Houston Clients Personalized Facelifts

HOUSTON, TX, February 18, 2011 (Press-News.org) The ramifications of aging and gravity take their toll throughout the entire body, but are usually most noticeable in the facial area. Some of the more common problems center on loss of skin elasticity resulting in midface sagging, deep creases under the eyelids and on either side of the nose that extend down to the corners of the mouth. This is sometimes referred to as a marionette fold. Other issues include the development of jowls as a result of the loss of lower face muscle tone and what is commonly known as a turkey neck, which is due to excess fatty deposits and loose skin. Whatever the facial problem, whether singular or in combination, AlwaysYouthful.com adapts the problem to a customized solution.

When the time arrives that cosmetic creams and non-surgical techniques are no longer keeping up with the advancement of age, a facelift can be a viable alternative. The single most important decision to make when considering a facelift procedure centers on the choice of plastic surgeon. Considerations should not only take into account the level of surgical skills, but the compassion of the attending surgeon as well. In both of these areas, Dr. Mark A. Schusterman, MD, FACS, a world renowned Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Cosmetic Surgeon based at the Museum District Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Center in Houston, TX, excels.

What differentiates AlwaysYouthful.com from other aesthetic surgical entities is the approach of Dr. Schusterman himself. A champion of women in their pursuit of a youthful appearance and an advocate in the fight against breast cancer, Dr. Schusterman is involved with the well-being of his patients from the outset until full recovery. His surgical skills were honed and refined in the research and development of microsurgical reconstruction techniques in the aid of head, neck and breast cancer patients.

Mark Schusterman is also highly knowledgeable in the most recent facelift procedures. As is his custom, he researches and adapts aspects of different techniques in the pursuit of reducing both scarring and postoperative recovery. The initial step for the client is an examination and evaluation of their facial structure, skin, health history, age and personal aesthetic goals. These findings are then employed by Dr. Schusterman to create personalized facelift solutions that result in totally natural, younger looking facial features.

When appropriate, a minimally invasive laser technique may be applied to eliminate excessive fatty tissue and tighten up loose skin on the face and neck. This is an office procedure that does not require anesthesia or any postoperative downtown. If the evaluation deems the personalized needs are more severe, then a surgical facelift will be proposed. However, in some cases, a combination of laser and surgical procedures may be deemed the most beneficial. There is no one-treatment-fits-all mentality for all of the surgical and non-surgical procedures that are performed at the MD Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Center in Houston.

Depending on the personalized plan, a facelift is performed in the surgeon's office, an outpatient facility or in a hospital. Dr. Schusterman performs all facelift procedures in the state-of-the-art operating rooms in the MD Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Center. Often patients return home the same day, depending on the length of the procedure and whether local or general anesthesia is employed.

From a postoperative standpoint, pain is usually minimal and relief is found with oral medications for only a day or two afterwards. Any bruising or swelling is usually reduced within a week or two and any suture scars will significantly fade over time. In most cases, the patient can expect the results to last for 10-15 years.

Exceptional surgical skills, care, compassion and customization is the foundation upon which Houston plastic surgeon Dr. Mark Schusterman and the entire staff at the Museum District Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, AlwaysYouthful.Com, approach the services they offer to the residents of Houston and its environs, as well as the International community at large.
