Importance of Facial Anatomy in Cosmetic Surgery

Your face is unique. Any cosmetic surgeon who tells you otherwise is lying. Facial anatomy is not uniform, and that fact is an important consideration when it comes to cosmetic procedures like facelifts, rhinoplasty and even ear reshaping. If you want the perfect aesthetic appeal, your surgeon should have extensive knowledge of facial anatomy.

Facial Symmetry

Did you know that facial symmetry can influence attraction? If facial symmetry is off, it can suggest to others that an individual is unhealthy or genetically inferior. These judgments are unconscious, making it difficult for anyone with poor facial symmetry to achieve relationship goals.

A cosmetic surgeon needs to ensure that any procedures enhance facial anatomy and achieve a balanced symmetry. The challenge is delivering your desired look while making sure that facial features are balanced as well as beautiful. This can be achieved if the surgeon individualizes treatment based on a comprehensive consultation.

Tailored Cosmetic Surgery

Not all cosmetic surgeons are able to offer tailored treatment. If you are looking for a specific aesthetic appearance, working with a surgeon who understands the intricacies of facial anatomy is essential. The position of muscles, bone structure and all the other features that make up the face should influence treatment recommendations.

Patient guided treatment allows you to choose the procedures that you want. However, an experienced and skilled cosmetic surgeon will offer expert advice to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. It is also possible to combine certain procedures for improved results. If you are unsure which procedure is best for you, book a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon who can translate your vision for the perfect look.
