Remodelling
Facial remodeling refers to all medical procedures aimed at beautifying and harmonising the appearance of the face. This generally involves the use of plastic surgery to reduce the signs of ageing, repair the after-effects of accidents, or improve overall facial aesthetics.
Nose job
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose to enhance facial harmony and balance. Often chosen to address self-consciousness, cosmetic surgery is typically aimed at achieving a natural look. For those seeking a less invasive option, medical rhinoplasty provides a temporary alternative.
Detached ears
For many people, protruding ears are considered an aesthetic concern. Often present from birth, they can cause social discomfort, especially in childhood, because of their unbalanced appearance.
The benefits of facial contouring
- Correction of asymmetries: harmonising features (nose, ears, jaw)
- Customisation: techniques adapted to your needs
- Long-lasting results: permanent surgery and renewable injections
- Natural results: instantly noticeable after treatment
- Multiple zones: targeted treatments (nose, ears, cheeks, chin)
- Flexible choices: surgery or aesthetic medicine
- Optimum safety: supervised operations and strict medical monitoring
Frequently asked questions
What does facial reshaping involve?
Facial reshaping encompasses all medical procedures that affect the appearance of the face. Its main objective is to harmonise the aesthetic appearance of the face, often through cosmetic surgery or aesthetic medicine.
What are the different facial reshaping techniques?
There are two main categories of facial reshaping techniques: surgical procedures and hyaluronic acid injections. Here are the main features to bear in mind if you’re considering facial reshaping.
- Surgical procedures: these treatments enhance specific facial features to create overall harmony. Surgery is the only way to guarantee definitive results, visible over the long term, and tailored to each individual patient. In all cases, regardless of the concerned facial area, an initial consultation with a doctor is essential to establish an initial contact and a protocol. The doctor will work with you to define your needs, taking into account your medical history and treatments. Claris Clinic can perform two types of facial reshaping procedures:
- Surgical rhinoplasty: corrects the appearance of the nose by changing its shape and volume.
- Otoplasty: consists mainly in correcting the shape of the auricle, often to erase a natural ear protrusion.
Hyaluronic acid injections
- Facial reshaping procedures are not necessarily surgical. They also include injections of hyaluronic acid already naturally present in the body. Hyaluronic acid is used to fill in sagging areas or wrinkles, restoring a more harmonious volume to the area injected. The advantage of hyaluronic acid injections is that they are performed by the doctor in a twenty-minute session, and results are visible immediately afterwards. However, repeat sessions are necessary to maintain a constant result, as the acid gradually disappears from the tissues and its effects fade over time.
Facial contouring: which areas are concerned?
It is possible to intervene on all areas of the face, even if some, such as the eyelids, are more concerned with rejuvenation than remodeling. Depending on your situation and expectations, the doctor will work with you to define the protocol that best suits you.
What are the risks of facial reshaping?
Like any medical procedure, facial reshaping carries certain risks. The side effects and potential complications vary with the technique, and only a qualified doctor can explain what to expect after treatment, whether surgical or non-surgical.
Surgery requires general anesthesia to ensure patient immobility. Certain medical histories or treatments may therefore be incompatible with such procedures. In addition, the recovery period following surgery can last from one to several weeks and can be uncomfortable.
This is why follow-up by a specialist doctor is essential to guarantee the safety of every patient. Post-operative follow-up sessions are planned in advance for this purpose. The details of this support are personalised and agreed with the doctor to best suit your needs and ensure safe care.
In the case of hyaluronic acid injections, certain side effects, although rare, may be observed in the days following the administration session. Redness and swelling may appear, but resolve spontaneously within a few days.
In rarer cases, infections or allergic reactions may occur which is why following up with your doctor is highly important. Even if it’s not necessary to plan post-surgery sessions, anticipating such risks is key to treating them effectively.
What's the best treatment for facial rejuvenation?
The best treatment is the one that’s right for you – there’s no one-size-fits-all reference. That’s why there are so many options for facial contouring. Based on your expectations and medical history, the doctor will help you define the best protocol for you.
How much does a face-lift cost?
Information:
- an initial information consultation costs between €50 and €70
- a hyaluronic acid injection costs from €350 for 1 mL
- a surgical operation generally costs between €2,000 and €7,000
