Surgical Options for Facial Rejuvenation: Turn Back the Hands of Time

By: Dr. Lawrence Iteld

2/7/2025

Facial rejuvenation covers a range of procedures designed to restore a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Patients most often want to target common signs of aging, including sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of facial volume. 

Popular procedures at Chicago’s Iteld Plastic Surgery that I perform include facelifts, brow lifts, neck lifts, and eyelid surgery, each tailored to address specific patient concerns. Based on the patient’s goals, each procedure can be performed individually or in combination for optimal results.  

  • Facelift: A facelift is a comprehensive approach to addressing sagging skin, deep folds, and wrinkles in the lower face and neck. By lifting and tightening the underlying muscles and removing excess skin, a facelift can provide dramatic results. In some instances where there is a loss of volume, I include fat transfer to “fill” hollowed areas.   
  • Neck Lift: A neck lift addresses sagging skin, excess fat, and muscle banding. It creates a smoother, more defined neck contour, offering a youthful and rejuvenated look. I can perform this as a stand-alone procedure or, more commonly, in addition to a facelift for a more complete facial refresh.  
  • Brow Lift: A brow lift targets sagging brows and forehead wrinkles, helping to restore a smoother and more youthful forehead. In lifting the brow, it opens patients’ eyes to a more youthful appearance.   
  • Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): This procedure focuses on rejuvenating the eye area by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle from the eyelids and below the eyes. Surgically, I can correct droopy lids and under-eye bags for a refreshed, awake look. You may need an upper blepharoplasty to remove folds, a lower blepharoplasty for removing excessive skin and “bags,” or both.  
  • Fat Transfer: Have you lost volume and look gaunt in addition to having increased sagging skin? Fat transfer during a facelift is particularly effective for treating delicate or hollow areas of the face that often lose volume due to aging. Common treatment areas for facial fat transfer in combination with a facelift include cheeks, under eyes, and templates.

FaceTite Add-On

You may need surgery in some areas but not a complete facelift. For many of my patients, they can benefit from adding FaceTite to their surgical procedures. This non-surgical radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology allows me to reduce small pockets of fat in targeted areas. This enhances facial contours, especially for jawlines, jowls, cheeks, and neck.   

  • Example: Your upper face will benefit from a brow lift and upper blepharoplasty, but you also have some unwanted fat along your jawline.
