Every face bears the traces that time leaves behind. Some are unique and others are regarded as displeasing. The desire: to achieve a natural rejuvenation effect without changing the characteristics of the facial expression. Plastic surgery makes this possible. Dr. med. Hans Peter Kern and his team specialise in cosmetic surgery operations such as facelifts or eyelid tightening. 

Eyelid tightening

Wrinkles, drooping eyelids and so-called bags under the eyes often make the face look tired, weak and dull. The reason behind these disagreeable symptoms is the loss of elasticity in the skin and muscles of the eyelids. Eyelid tightening can provide the remedy in this case. Excess skin and muscle tissue as well as small fat pads are removed to restore the fresh, alert appearance. The surgical intervention is performed under local anaesthetic on an outpatient basis. 

Facelift

A "surgical face tightening (facelift)" is effective in tightening the skin and  underlying connective tissue with a lasting effect. Heavy wrinkles can be reduced and sunken fat tissue raised again. Facial features re-emerge and the overall appearance is fresher and younger. To reinforce this rejuvenation effect, our team frequently combines a facelift with other methods, e.g. forehead and neck tightening as well as treatment to the area around the eyes – as the optimum solution lies in the variety of methods used.
