Patient Story:

Before and After: Full Facial Rejuvenation with Facelift, Eyelid Lift, Fat Grafting & Genioplasty

This patient in her early 60s came to Dr. Romanelli seeking facial rejuvenation to address the signs of aging. She was tired of looking “old” and wanted to revitalize her face, which was showing sagging skin, jowling, excess skin on the upper eyelids, lower lid bags, and a loss of volume throughout her face.

After a thorough consultation, Dr. Romanelli determined she was an ideal candidate for a facelift to restore a more youthful appearance. To address her eye concerns, he recommended a quad blepharoplasty, which includes both an upper and lower eyelid lift. This would help remove excess skin and address the bags under her eyes. Additionally, Dr. Romanelli suggested fat grafting to restore volume to her hollowed areas. Using liposuction, fat was harvested from another part of her body, purified, and carefully re-injected into her face, resulting in a rejuvenated, supple look while maintaining a natural appearance.

To complete her transformation, Dr. Romanelli also recommended a genioplasty (chin augmentation) using an implant to elongate the lower portion of her face. This procedure enhanced her jawline, providing a more proportional appearance and further addressing the sagging jowls.

These after photos were taken 7 months post-surgery, and she looks 20 years younger! Her rejuvenated face is now more youthful and balanced, with natural-looking results that enhance her beauty.
