As we age, our skin begins to slow down the production of collagen, leading to sagging and an overall loss of elasticity. Topical treatments such as rejuvenating masks, anti-aging serums, and overnight creams can only go so far in restoring some of the suppleness our youthful skin once possessed. Facelifts, eyelid rejuvenation, and neck contouring can successfully minimize the signs of aging, but if you aren’t ready for plastic surgery, there are several nonsurgical options to explore.
Safe, non-invasive options to restore a youthful look
At Plastic Surgery Group of Memphis, we offer a number of injectable procedures, laser skin treatments, and skin resurfacing procedures that can help you turn back the hands of time by diminishing fine lines and wrinkles, restoring a more even skin tone, as well as improving the appearance of scars and blemishes. These treatments are non-invasive and require minimal downtime, saving your body the stress of recovering from a surgical procedure while taking years off your face.
If you’re struggling with the look of your skin as it ages, our expert team can help. We have nine physicians in charge of our skin care and laser department, which also includes a nurse injector and aesthetician. We are committed to providing considerate and respectful care of the highest quality, and work hard to provide continuity of care with our doctors. When you choose the Plastic Surgery Group of Memphis for your nonsurgical needs, you’re choosing physicians who have the skill, knowledge, and expertise to deliver nothing but the best results.
Our doctors possess cutting-edge knowledge of facial anatomy, something that is fundamental to performing safe procedures with optimal outcomes. A full understanding of the intricate web of facial muscles, nerves, arteries and more allows our providers safely to create proper proportions, different curves, and varying levels of volumization, giving your entire face a more youthful and attractive appearance.
Nonsurgical services offered
Facial rejuvenation often involves combining treatments, like injectable fillers and botox to restore volume and soften wrinkles, along with chemical peels or lasers for skin resurfacing. While these can be used together, we may recommend a short break between treatments to allow for a full recovery and any swelling to subside. When you schedule a skin analysis with our office, we’ll be able to advise you on the types of fillers and laser treatments that will be most beneficial to you, as well as what they contain and what you can expect when it comes to recovery and aftercare.

Knowing when it’s time to take the next step
As successful as our nonsurgical procedures are at restoring a youthful appearance, there may come a time when cosmetic surgery is a better option. Our surgeons may suggest this if:
-
- you desire more dramatic body sculpting
-
- you have significant loose or sagging skin
-
- you prefer a one-time procedure to achieve desired results
- both you and your current provider agree that surgery will better achieve your desired changes
