Lower
blepharoplasty

Lower blepharoplasty is an aesthetic surgical procedure aimed at enhancing the appearance of the lower eyelids. As we age, the skin around the eyes can lose elasticity and firmness, leading to sagging, puffiness, and the formation of fine lines and wrinkles.

Bags under eyes become evident when the tissues supporting your eyelids weaken due to the aging process.  These changes can contribute to a tired or aged appearance, which may affect self-esteem. Lower blepharoplasty addresses these concerns by removing excess skin and fat bags, resulting in smoother lower eyelids. This procedure not only rejuvenates the eyes but can also restore a youthful and refreshed overall look, helping to improve facial harmony.

Procedure Details

Face lifting is performed under general anesthesia. The surgical technique used will determine the length and type of incisions required. Facelift scars are typically located along the hairline, around the ears. Dr. Giunta strategically place incisions to minimize visibility and enhance healing for optimal aesthetic results. The procedure usually lasts between two to four hours, depending on the complexity of the case. In many cases, people who get a facelift undergo other procedures to enhance facial volumes at the same time as their facelift surgery.

Recovery

Post-operative recovery varies among individuals, but you can expect swelling, bruising, and discomfort for the initial weeks. Patients are advised to rest, keep their heads elevated, and follow specific post-operative care instructions, including avoiding strenuous activities. Most individuals can return to normal activities within two to four weeks, although complete healing may take several months. Nevertheless, it may take two to three months for your face to feel completely "normal" again.

Facial Lipofilling

Lipofilling, also known as fat grafting or autologous fat transfer, is an aesthetic procedure that enhances facial volume by using the patient’s own fat. With aging, the youthful triangular structure of the face transforms, as volume diminishes in the upper regions and fat accumulates in the lower areas, leading to sagging skin and the appearance of wrinkles.

Lipofilling addresses these issues by strategically injecting purified fat into areas such as the cheeks, lips, perioral area, temporal regions and around the eyes, restoring youthful contours and providing a natural-looking fullness. This minimally invasive technique not only improves facial aesthetics but also utilizes the body’s own resources, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.

Facial Lipofilling

Consultation and Planning

During your initial consultation, Dr. Giunta will assess your facial structure and discuss your specific aesthetic goals. A comprehensive medical history will be reviewed to ensure you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. The surgeon will explain the lipofilling process, including the techniques used for fat extraction and injection, as well as the benefits and potential risks. A personalized treatment plan will be created, outlining the areas of focus and the volume of fat to be harvested. Fat grafting can be used alone or in combination with other aesthetic facial procedures.

Procedure Details

The lipofilling procedure typically involves two main steps: liposuction and fat injection. The surgeon will begin by harvesting fat from a donor site—usually the abdomen or thighs—using a minimally invasive liposuction technique. However, the donor-site selection is based largely on the amount of fat needed and patient preference. The harvested fat is then refined to separate viable fat cells from impurities. Once prepared, the fat is carefully injected into the targeted areas of the face. The procedure usually lasts one hour and is often performed under local anesthesia or sedation.

Recovery

Post-procedure, patients may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in both the donor and injection sites. Recovery generally lasts one to two weeks, during which patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities.

Results

Results from lipofilling can be seen immediately, though final outcomes may take several weeks to fully develop as swelling subsides and the grafts take. The facial volume achieved provides a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. In addition to volume enhancement, facial lipofilling may improve skin quality. Since the fat used is autologous, many patients enjoy long-lasting results, with positive changes often remaining for several years, enhancing their overall facial harmony and self-confidence.

Otoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation for comfort or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's age and the complexity of the case. The surgeon will make incisions discreetly behind the ear to minimize visible scarring. Techniques may involve reshaping the ear cartilage, smoothing protruding areas, or recreating the natural folds of the ear. The procedure usually lasts between one to two hours.

Recovery

Post-operative recovery involves swelling and discomfort, managed with prescribed pain relievers. It is recommended to wear a headband to support the ears and minimize movement both day and night for the first 4 weeks, and then only at night for the following 2 weeks. Most patients can return to normal activities within one week, but strenuous activities and sport should be avoided for 6 weeks.

Results

Final results of the otoplasty become apparent as swelling subsides, typically within 1 to 2 months. Patients often appreciate a significant improvement in ear shape and position, achieving a more balanced and harmonious facial profile. The effects of ear correction are definitive, providing patients with enhanced self-confidence andsatisfaction with their appearance.

Consultation and Planning

The most common clinical feature of prominent ears is an excessive distance from the head, primarily due to cartilage deformities such as a lack of antihelical fold or an overly large concha. This condition can affect one or both ears and may lead to cosmetic concerns and self-esteem issues for affected individuals. Dr. Giunta will discuss various otoplasty techniques, anesthesia options, and the potential risks and benefits of each approach. You will have the opportunity to express your aesthetic goals, and together, a personalized surgical plan will be developed.
