Truly Transformative
Sometimes you go through a transformation in your life where change is needed to be confident and secure. Houston facial plastic surgery expert, Dr. Rodman, helps you redefine your life and your beauty by providing a bundle of procedures that add definition and contour while removing unnecessary neck fats. Redefine by Rodman completely customizes your facial plastic surgery procedure to fit your needs. It may include any combination of the following: buccal fat removal, neck liposuction, Renuvion, chin augmentation, moving the bone, genioplasty, jaw implants, or chin reduction.
Enhance Your Profile
When people look at your face, their eyes are drawn to your nose and chin. These characteristics are the most noticeable when viewed from the side. During a profileplasty, the nose, chin, and neck are reshaped to create a more balanced and attractive side profile. Profileplasty is a subset of bony cosmetic face surgery, and Dr. Rodman at Face Forward Houston is one of the few experts in this area. She aims to help you feel your most beautiful, confident self.
Harmoniously Symmetrical
A gorgeous face will have symmetry and harmony. However, this equilibrium can be thrown off if the forehead, which makes up the top third of the face, is too long, too high, or too big. Therefore, Dr. Rodman can give a hairline advancement operation to individuals with high foreheads. Pairing this procedure with a brow lift will optimize your results, bringing more balance to your facial structure.
Looks That Command Attention
A weak chin may make the nose appear wider, or the neck appear slack, which many people don't notice but can significantly impact one's overall facial appearance. A stronger, broader, or longer chin results from genioplasty, sometimes known as a "chin augmentation," which can help create a more harmonious overall facial profile. A genioplasty's outcomes can be tailored to the specific desires of the patient undergoing the procedure, including chin reduction if that is needed. In order to get the most desirable aesthetic outcomes, chin augmentation is frequently combined with a rhinoplasty or another face operation.
Permanent Pout
Like the rest of your face, the upper lip tends to extend and lengthen with age. This frequently causes the red section of the lip to "roll" inward, giving the illusion of thinning. The top lip slides downward and hides the upper teeth, making the mouth look older. Houston facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Rodman, reverses the gravitational pull by reducing the top lip, and the midface appears lifted and rejuvenated. The enhanced "red show" also gives the lip a permanent appearance of more fullness, typically seen in younger women.
