How Aging and Gravity Alter the Look of Your Face

We all know that as we get older, our bodies begin to lose the youthful luster and appeal they once had. Our faces are particularly susceptible to the ravages of time, which can leave us looking older and more worn than we actually are.

As we age, our skin loses its strength, elasticity, and vitality. This is one cause of fine lines, wrinkles, folds, and other imperfections on the face. There are many potential causes. Our skin also produces less collagen, a substance that is essential for healthy and elastic skin. Gravity slowly pulls our skin downward on a daily basis. This constant stress can lead to the formation of jowls, a sagging neck, and other aesthetic issues.

There are a wide variety of options for facial rejuvenation, and both surgical and non-surgical options are capable of providing high-quality results. Contact us to schedule a consultation for your facial rejuvenation with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ian Lytle.
