Top 3 Cosmetic Procedures for Seniors

, , , ,

You’re never too old to feel confident about your image. Seniors are just as entitled to looking their best as any other age demographic. To give you some insight into the national trends, Dr. John LeRoy will narrow down the top 3 cosmetic procedures for people over the age of 65 years old, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

How Much Does a Facelift CostEyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery, or a blepharoplasty, is the most common cosmetic procedure for seniors in the United States. During the natural aging process, skin suffers from a loss of elasticity and gravity’s consistent pull, causing eyelids to become droopy or baggy. It’s a very common type of condition, but it can still cause people to feel self-conscious about their appearance. Dr. John LeRoy performs eyelid surgery to safely remove unwanted skin, fat or puffiness to reveal a refreshed and youthful appearance. Since each patient has different concerns, the procedure can focus on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both for comprehensive results.

For even more subtle results, we offer Dr. John LeRoy’s signature Band Aid Eyelid Surgery. It has the same goals as a traditional eyelid surgery, but it’s designed for patients who want more incremental improvements. Conveniently, the Band Aid version can be accomplished in-office with gentle numbing.

Facelift

Facelifts are among the top cosmetic procedures for many age demographics. Like most physical features, skin on the face and neck can lose its integrity over time. A Facelift interrupts this process by tightening targeted areas around the cheek, mouth, jawline and neck. The general consensus among facelift patients is that the procedure takes approximately 10 years off of a person’s image. If you want more subtle results, the Band Aid Mini Facelift could be your preferred in-office method of improving your look. The best way to determine whether you should receive a traditional facelift, or a Band Aid Mini Facelift is by completing an in-person consultation with Dr. John LeRoy. He’ll go over the best plan of action that meets your specific needs.

Liposuction

Coming in third place in popularity for seniors, liposuction safely removes areas of unwanted fat and skin for a more contoured form. It’s a highly successful method for targeting regions that are seemingly resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction and its Band Aid Liposuction counterpart can both be used on the following physical features.

  • Arms
  • Legs
  • Abdomen
  • Love handles
  • Thighs
  • Hips
  • Back
  • Buttocks

Liposuction safely breaks down fat deposits in treatment areas to create a slimmer appearance. Dr. John LeRoy has been performing this type of plastic surgery for over two decades on patients with completely different body types and cosmetic goals.
