My face is sad
A frequently expressed concern during initial aesthetic consultations is:”Doctor, I am a joyful and lively person, yet my face looks sad and doesn’t reflect how I truly feel inside.”
This sad appearance can manifest as drooping outer corners of the eyes, deepening tear troughs, increasingly prominent nasolabial folds, and developing marionette lines.
The tear trough is a hollow area between the cheekbone and the nose, beneath the dark circles. It contributes to a sad and tired look.
Nasolabial folds, lines extending from the nose to the corners of the mouth, are among the first signs of aging in the mid-face, appearing around ages 25-35.
Marionette lines, which run from the corners of the mouth to the jawline, give the face an older appearance.
To achieve a more relaxed and gentle look, the Dr. Ghali Aesthetic Medicine Clinic offers several aesthetic solutions.
The face can appear more relaxed by restoring lost contours and filling in deep lines to enhance light reflection. Dr. Ghali offers hyaluronic acid injections to provide a soft, relaxed, and dynamic appearance to the face.
This treatment may involve correcting tear troughs, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines by using hyaluronic acid injections to restore malar fat and lift the corners of the mouth.
Skin boosters are an aesthetic medicine technique involving the injection of non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid into the dermis across the entire face.
The goal is to hydrate the skin, restore its elasticity and radiance, and prevent the formation of fine lines.
MesoLift is a mesotherapy technique that involves multiple small injections of non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid combined with antioxidant vitamins.
This method is recommended to prevent the appearance of wrinkles on the face.
Superficial peels are a sophisticated method for firming the skin. This technique involves applying a solution to the skin, which causes a controlled exfoliation of the epidermis. This exfoliation removes superficial skin cells and stimulates fibroblasts, leading to new collagen production. As a result, the skin becomes smoother, thicker, and more elastic.
