The EstéticaLift

Facelift and Neck Lift at Estética Institute

At Estética Institute of the Palm Beaches in West Palm Beach, we understand that aging can take a toll on your face and neck, resulting in deep creases around the mouth, a slackened jawline, and loose folds and fat deposits on the neck. To counteract these signs of aging, EsteticaLift, our signature Facelift, may be the perfect solution. Factors such as gravity, sun exposure, and daily life stresses can contribute to these changes over time, and the EstéticaLift can help restore a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Contact us today to schedule a consultation with our team of plastic surgeons to discuss your goals and explore your options for a facelift or neck lift procedure.

Youthful Transformations with EsteticaLift

What is a Facelift?

Dr. DeLange has perfected the EstéticaLift. Our EstéticaLift or Mini-Lift is often performed in combination with other facial cosmetic procedures and can be performed any time signs of aging begin to appear. As with any other procedure, the doctor will assess your needs, your skin quality, and other factors to decide on the right facelift procedure that will give you the best results. Dr. DeLange is a master in providing his patients, men or women, with a minimally invasive procedure that offers natural-looking results. This procedure was designed to improve the laxity of jowls, cheeks, loose neck (turkey neck), and facial skin with no need for major anesthesia. He is always researching the latest in plastic surgery techniques to ensure their patients are getting the best possible care and results.

Facelift (Rhytidectomy)

It's a surgical procedure designed to smooth and firm the skin, providing a fresh, youthful appearance. Throughout one’s life, the sun’s radiation, stress, gravity, and other factors cause the skin to sag, which results in a more aged appearance. Areas of the face and neck, in particular around the jawline, are especially prone to the aging process. Though these changes are gradual, wrinkles and other signs of aging can make individuals “feel older” than they really are. Surgery for a facelift involves the removal and realignment of facial and neck skin and, in some instances, the removal of excess fat.

Neck Lift surgery (Platysmaplasty)

It may be the solution you're seeking. This cosmetic procedure is designed to recontour and reshape the area beneath your chin, reducing the appearance of a "double chin" or "turkey neck." Our experienced surgeons will remove excess skin and fat from the neck area during the surgery while also utilizing a tightening technique to create a smoother, more natural-looking neckline. The result is a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance that can help boost your confidence and self-esteem. Don't let an aging neckline hold you back - contact us today to learn more about how a neck lift surgery at our reputable clinic can help you achieve the desired results.

Natural-looking Results

What are the benefits of a Facelift?

The EstéticaLift only takes about an hour, and the recovery is quicker and more comfortable than with a traditional facelift, with more natural results, avoiding the pulled or unnatural “facelift“ look. You will still look like yourself but with a more youthful and rested appearance. Because of the vertical nature of the pull, it simply re-positions the facial tissues back where they were prior to the aging process resulting in a very natural look.

Reasons for considering one of our facelifts or Neck Lifts

With a Facelift West Palm Beach patients can achieve their desired rejuvenation when you want to:

Look like you but 15 years younger
Get rid of the laxity of your jowls and cheeks
Look like you feel on the inside!

Balancing Form & Function

What is Rhinoplasty?

Nose Surgery (also termed Rhinoplasty) is a surgery in which physical features of the nose can be corrected along with medical problems, such as difficulty breathing. Nose surgery remains one of the most popular cosmetic procedures performed in America today. Improving the shape and contour of the nose can have a profound effect on someone’s appearance, as it is central to the face and often the first feature we see.

The surgery itself is complex and nuanced; therefore, you should always seek a rhinoplasty specialist to perform your nasal surgery. Dr. Justin Bellamy is a specialist of Rhinoplasty in West Palm Beach and other areas in South Florida. He has advanced fellowship training in aesthetic and functional rhinoplasty, having trained with the best rhinoplasty surgeons in the world. His expertise ranges from primary (first-time) rhinoplasty to complex revision (second-time) rhinoplasty to ethnic rhinoplasty.

Revise & Reshape

What are the benefits of Nose Surgery?

Undergoing a rhinoplasty, commonly known as a "nose job," requires the expertise of a skilled and trustworthy plastic surgeon. As a highly individualized procedure, rhinoplasty can improve the size and shape of your nose by reshaping the nostrils, tip, or nasal bridge. Dr. Bellamy has extensive experience in performing various types of rhinoplasty, including primary and revision (secondary) rhinoplasty, ethnic rhinoplasty, and non-surgical "liquid" rhinoplasty.

Revitalize Your Eyes

Transformative Benefits of Blepharoplasty

Eyelid Surgery, or Blepharoplasty, can eliminate bags that lie underneath the eyes as well as turn back the clock for the patient offering a more youthful appearance in the eyes and overall face. When a person ages, he/she develops natural wrinkles that can surround the eye and cause problems over time. These problems can easily be eliminated with an eyelid surgery. Eyelid surgery procedures can also be combined with other surgeries to provide the most effective results to suit your individual needs.

How is Blepharoplasty performed?

By making incisions in the small grooves near the eyes, the loose skin is tightened from the upper eyelid and the excess fatty deposits are removed. The lower eyelids normally have to undergo a little bit more work to eliminate the dark circles and remove the bulges in skin. In some instances, the doctors can choose to do the lower Blepharoplasty in two different ways. One way is to make incisions and remove the fatty deposits. Another method to performing lower Blepharoplasty is to use laser technology.

Revitalizing Your Face

The Power of Combined Forehead and Brow Lift Procedures

These procedures smooth the wrinkles and lines in the face to rejuvenate the face and skin.

Enhance and Beautify

Lip Augmentation for Fuller, Youthful Lips

Lip augmentation is a procedure to enhance the fullness of lips and make them more attractive. Just like the rest of our skin, our lips loose collagen and fat during the aging process. There are other factors which accelerate the signs of aging around the lips include smoking and sun exposure. Lip augmentation is the perfect procedure for those patients who have always had naturally thin lips that they are self-conscious about it as well as those who want to return their lips to the shape and fullness they had when they were younger. Lip augmentation is accomplished by implanting synthetic or biological materials into the lips to make them plumper and more appealing.

Augment Your Face

How is the Lip Augmentation procedure performed?

There are several different substances commonly used in lip augmentation procedures, each with their own particular features and techniques:

AlloDerm

This is the most popular material used for lip augmentation. The patient is given a local anesthetic; the material is inserted through tiny incisions made in the inside corners of the mouth, then stitches are used to close the incisions. AlloDerm works with the natural tissues of the body. The material can be absorbed, so the results are only temporary, lasting from 6 months to a year.

Synthetic Implants

Gore-Tex, SoftForm and soft ePTFE are synthetic options with permanent results. They do not shrink, cannot be absorbed into the body, and remain in place because scar tissue forms on either end. The implants are inserted by making a small incision in the inside of the lip. The material is then made into the shape of a small tube and it is inserted with a small needle.

Fat Grafting

Many people choose fat grafting because they are comfortable with the idea of using fat from their own body. The fat is harvested from another area of the body, often the abdomen or thighs. It is then prepared and inserted with a needle into the lip from more than one point. This procedure has permanent results in approximately half of the people who try it, because the body can reabsorb the fat.
