Bags and dark circles appearing under the eyes are a common but usually undesirable trait. For most people, these unwanted facial features occur as part of the natural aging process, though some people may have them begin to crop up at quite a young age due to their genetic makeup. Regardless of whether the bags and dark circles underneath your eyes have always been there or if they’re just now starting to show up, lower eyelid surgery—blepharoplasty—is a popular, safe, and commonly used method to resolving the problem.
Indeed, some estimates report that blepharoplasty is among the most commonly administered plastic […]

While facelift surgery offers many benefits and has been utilized to great success by thousands of patients the world over, it’s important to understand what your other options are and, as it pertains to your unique anatomy, whether or not they’ll be preferable to you at the current time.
“Liquid” Facelifts and Dermal Fillers
Liquid facelifts refer to the use of dermal fillers and Botox. This is a non-surgical option which can offer many similar benefits to a facelift. While the results aren’t as dramatic or long lasting, many patients have found that they aren’t quite ready yet for a facelift, but […]
When performed by a skilled facial cosmetic surgeon, Rhinoplasty can help achieve symmetry and balance of one’s face. However, recovery can take some time, and results of rhinoplasty surgery aren’t always immediately apparent . Pain and swelling should be expected after just about any type of surgery, including a nose job. The pain generally is moderate to mild after rhinoplasty surgery and usually resolves within the first few days. The pain experienced after rhinoplasty surgery can be controlled with over the counter medications such as Tylenol. Your surgeon may also prescribe a stronger medication for you. ONLY take medication that […]
Generally speaking, the only requirement necessary to qualify as a candidate for facelift surgery is to be in good general health—as to whether or not you need a facelift surgery is something that you’ll have to determine on your own (ideally with the advise of a qualified plastic surgeon). Deciding to have plastic surgery—or any elective cosmetic treatment—is a deeply personal decision that should be carefully considered. However, keep in mind it’s also a common decision made by thousands of men and women each year, and social acceptance of plastic surgery is at an all time high.
The Most Important Step […]
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a highly effective and very common plastic surgery procedure which aims to reduce the amount of excess skin around the eyes. This can have dramatically beneficial results for most patients, such as the reduction of bags, dark circles, or puffiness underneath the eyes. However, for many patients the benefits exceed cosmetic appeal, and indeed blepharoplasty is for them a medical necessity. In these cases, it’s usually because the upper eyelid has begun to droop or sag into the field of vision. Blepharoplasty is a way to correct this problem and restore proper eyesight, though most […]
There are still some people out there who don’t believe in any type of cosmetic surgery and even go so far as to judge those who get it. What they don’t realize is that many of the people who seek nose jobs are not doing so out of vanity. Some don’t even do it for physical reasons at all, but because they have breathing problems or snoring problems.
The potential benefits of Rhinoplasty have a strong emotional component. A well-performed nose job can benefit in a variety of ways relating to both social relations and personal satisfaction.

Blepharoplasty—or eyelid surgery as it’s more commonly known—is a highly effective cosmetic surgery that focuses on enhancing a patient’s eyelids and the area just surrounding the eyes. This kind of procedure isn’t always strictly cosmetic either, as it can have both medical as well as cosmetic applications. Many patients benefit from both corrective goals. Many people experience an excess of skin drooping down from the upper eyelid, which can impact their field of vision—an eyelid surgery can correct this. However, it can also correct cosmetic issues such as bags or puffiness underneath the eyes which lead to a constantly tired […]

While there are no cosmetic treatments that can offer truly permanent effects, it is quite accurate to say that for many patients, a facelift surgery can offer very long lasting results that for some might as well be permanent. At Edelstein Cosmetic we like to say that a facelift turns back the clock, but the clock keeps ticking. You will likely always look better than if you had not had the surgery done at all.
