We rolled out the red carpet for this lovely patient! As we age, our skin loses its fight with gravity and drooping can impact us in different areas, so its not a one-size-fits-all packaging. For this patient, her aging was focused down the center of her face rather than down the jowls, which tends to be most common in women. So for her, Dr Woodman went with a Brow lift to focus on the eyes to brighten and lighten the center focal point, then give her a strong chin before using his signature Deep Plane Facelift technique to set her face and neck lift, aligning her muscular structure flawlessly so her skin is not stretched unnaturally.Typically, our after photos for facelift patients are taken after six months, because as you will see, this patient still has some swelling (the face can take up to twelve months to fully heal!!!), but she is SO pleased with her results she wanted us to show off Dr Woodman's work now.

This patient is a 62-year-old woman from North Idaho concerned about the typical changes of the aging face which include: wrinkles, texture changes, fine lines, volume loss, laxity, and facial drooping of the cheeks and at the corners of the mouth. She also has concerns about love handles and varicose veins. All of these issues were addressed and the patient was evaluated with a Visia computerized digital complexion analysis. The most striking issue was the loss of volume in the midface and a tear trough deformity which typically causes our patients to complain of either dark circles under the eyes or bags under the eyes. Treatment recommendations consisted of CO2 fractional resurfacing, dermal fillers, and Smartlipo body sculpting for the muffin tops. Choosing to get the most bang for the buck, we agreed on facial rejuvenation and volume restoration with JUVDERM Ultra XC and JUVEDERM Ultra Plus XC, which is formulated with the numbing medication Lidocaine for more comfort during the procedure. We placed a total of 6 syringes of the dermal filler in the tear troughs, midface, and at the corners of the mouth (oral commissure). As you can see, this created a fresher, more rested, and younger look without looking artificial or plastic. Many of our dermal filler patients are thrilled with the immediate improvement that fillers create in a procedure that is comfortable for them and takes less than an hour.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

This woman presented with drooping of the upper eyelids, heavy under eye bags, and fullness in her chin that just bothered her! Dr Woodman listened to her concerns and provided a conservative approach that gave fantastic results. Removing excess skin from the upper eyelids, some of the excess fat that filled out the lower lid (some of us with hollow under eyes WISH we had that fat under there!), and a bit of lipo below the chin were the only incision points, with the only scar left visible being a tiny one under the chin. The laser Blepharoplasty (Upper Eyelid surgery technique we use) scar is hidden within the natural crease, the lower incision is in the lash line- you will never see it!To finish, Dr Woodman gave her an overall CO2 resurfacing refresh, and the results speak for themselves.

This 65-year-old patient presented with excess skin, jowling, volume loss, and significant sun-damaged, aging skin. She underwent a facelift with fat transfer, a lip lift, and CO laser resurfacing to address both structural support and surface texture. Her after photos show smoother skin, restored facial volume, and a more defined, youthful facial contour.

The 54-year-old female patient pictured above was driven by considerable changes of aging, particularly evident in the areas around the jowls and cheeks, thin lips, the early appearance of vertical lines around the mouth, and changes in her neck. This active runner and yoga enthusiast sought out the exceptional Facelift/Minilift by Dr. Mustoe in Chicago, renowned for delivering natural and not overstretched results. The patient was referred by a friend who ten years prior had trusted Dr. Mustoe with a similar surgery.Under IV sedation and local anesthesia, Dr. Mustoe employed a deep plane facelift, fat grafting around the mouth, ablative laser, and spot dermabrasion around the mouth and to her forehead. Her ease throughout the process was likely a result of the widely recognized expertise and care of Dr. Mustoe and his staff at TLKM Plastic Surgery.Post-procedure, the patient's results were dramatically visible in her naturally rejuvenated and fresh appearance. The transformation was balanced, avoiding the appearance of being overstretched, which was crucial for her. Comfort and satisfaction with the Facelift/Minilift by Dr. Mustoe in Chicago was evident in the patient's glowing post-procedure expression, all while retaining the natural characteristics that made her unique. The outcomes bear witness to Dr. Mustoe's excellence, a culmination of over 30 years of experience combined with a prestigious background of education and research from Harvard to advisory positions with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

At age 62, this patient sought to make her outward appearance better reflect her active and vibrant lifestyle. After having her primary facelift over a decade ago, she decided to pursue another procedure, opting for a secondary deep plane facelift, along with perioral fat grafting and ablative laser with spot dermabrasion around her mouth. She selected 'Facelift/Minilift by Dr. Mustoe in Chicago' due to his expertise and innovative approach to these techniques. The patient wanted to tighten her neck and soften deep wrinkles and lines, aiming for a more youthful look which is compatible with her energetic outdoor activities and regular boating adventures.The procedures were meticulously carried out under local anesthesia and oral sedation in Dr. Mustoe's office, negating the need for drains, a testament to his innovative technique. This patient's zest for life was reflected in her quick recovery, as she was back socializing with her friends effortlessly just four days post-procedure. She reported finding the recovery process smooth and easy, and is delighted with her refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
