Facial rejuvenation has undergone a profound change in the last decade. Instead of “stretching” the skin, we try to reposition the facial tissues where they were years ago, thus achieving a natural and personalised beauty. In other words, the patient looks younger… and not like someone else.

In addition to this concept, there is the complementarity between surgical procedures, lipofilling (the introduction of your own fat), surgical dermabrasion and aesthetic medicine (botulinum toxin, hyaluronic acid, facial volumetrisation and/or biostimulation products, peels, lasers, etc.).

The plastic surgeon must master all these techniques in order to achieve the best possible rejuvenation.
The aim of surgery is to combat the structural signs of an ageing or drooping face, restoring a fresher, younger appearance.

Surgery must avoid the stigma of the “old days”… that patients all looked the same… it is essential to maintain the personalisation of each human being.

Blepharoplasty is the aesthetic plastic surgery of the eyelids and is the most common surgery on the face, after rhinoplasty. It is a surgery that has a great impact on facial rejuvenation, making the eyes look lighter and fresher.

It is a very common surgery from the third decade of life onwards, and I emphasise its importance from the sixth decade onwards, as it allows for a wider field of vision, making all the difference to patients’ quality of life.
In eyelid rejuvenation surgery, the skin and/or muscles and/or fat are treated.

The nose is at the centre of the face and makes a decisive contribution to facial beauty and/or harmony. A nose that doesn’t look good on a face is like a curtain pulled down on a window… when we look at the face, the nose imposes itself, often preventing us from contemplating the beauty of the face.

It is the most commonly performed facial plastic surgery in the world, which is an excellent indicator of patients’ willingness to change a nose that they consider to be misshapen or unaesthetic.
If there are functional changes in the nose, they should be treated in the same surgery, and it is very common to combine septoplasty (nasal septum surgery) with nasal pyramid surgery in order to obtain the best possible result.
The final result can take 1 or 2 years, especially at the nasal tip, although in most cases we have an approximate final result in 6 months.
Preoperative appointments are essential to clarify all doubts and expectations.

The most common malformation is abducted or prominent ears, also known as “floppy ears”.

This deformity is characterised by the high projection or detachment of the ears in relation to the skull and should be treated from the age of 5, when the size of the ears is practically that of adulthood, thus avoiding stigma and ridicule from schoolmates.
