Rowena's mini-lift

This is why it is important to see a specialist, I get a huge amount of calls from people seeking a price on a thread lift, S-lift, MACS lift without having seen anyone and when I actually see them often they either a) don’t need a surgical procedure or b) the procedure they thought they needed is not the correct one.

This is an example of a Deep Plane Facelift I did for a lady who had had significant weight loss and needed a true deep plane facelift with neck lift

Deep Plane Facelift

Rowena Wallace - Non surgical Facelift

This patient needed a deep plane facelift and this is her result only 6-8 weeks post surgery. Other types of patients will not require a deep plane facelift and may only require a short scar neck lift or eye lifting procedure, this is the case with Rowena Wallace whom I performed a non-surgical facelift, minimal scar necklift and blepharoplasty on (see below)

Most people are concerned that an eyelift will make them look strange or have a “done” appearance. The newer techniques of blepharoplasty (eyelift) that Dr Pincock has learned in the United States allows him to achieve a natural appearing result without visible scarring. http://www.sydneyfacialplastics.com.au/surgeon.html

This patient below is an actual patient of Dr Pincock’s who has benefited enormously from an upper eyelid and lower eyelid procedure. (upper and lower blepharoplasty)

Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty

In World War one, a New Zealand otolaryngologist (Ear, Nose and Throat Surgeon)working in London, Harold Gillies developed many of the techniques of modern facial plastic surgery in treating  soldiers suffering from disfiguring facial injuries. His work was expanded upon during WWII by his cousin and former student Archibald McIndo, who modified earlier techniques to treat pilots severe lacerations and facial burns.

So from its humble beginnings of a subspecialty of Ear, Nose and Throat. Plastic Surgical techniques were improved and applied to other parts of the body to eventually form its own specialty (Plastic Surgery). The art of facial plastic surgery was retained by the specialty of Ear, Nose and Throat Surgery and is part of its core curriculum. Facial Plastic Surgery was retained by the specialty of Ear, Nose and Throat with surgeons performing cosmetic and reconstructive rhinoplasty and large reconstructions for tumours and skin cancers. for more detailed information please click here: http://www.abfprs.org/about/h_fps_organizes.cfm

 In the USA in the 1970’s and 1980’s an Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon by the name of  Jack Anderson sought out and refined facelifting techniques, teaching them to a new breed of Facial Plastic Surgeons who were only interested in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the head, neck and face.  http://www.abfprs.org/about/h_education.cfm Much to the disdain of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) http://www.abfprs.org/about/h_ps_organizes.cfm , this led to some fairly public spats between Jack Anderson and the ASPS with one member writing a derogatory comment about him in an article. This led to a lawsuit which was eventually won by Jack Anderson when the judge declared that his training in facial plastic surgery was superior to that of ASPS and was personally awarded close to 2 million dollars in the 1980’s, a huge sum of money. This money was donated to create the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. http://www.abfprs.org/about/history20.cfm

Dr Pincock is proud to be part of this history, His fellowship director in the USA was Dr Wayne Larrabee a past president of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and who himself was trained by the great Jack Anderson. http://www.sydneyfacialplastics.com.au/surgeon.html

Firstly the loss of normal cheekbone volume and definition and secondly deeper nasolabial folds

this can be addressed temporarily by fillers – in particular the new voluma from the juvederm range

for a permanent result patients may opt for cheek implants, these are similar to chin implants but are designed to sit over the cheekbone giving a more prominent cheekbone. They are inserted through a tiny incision on the inside of the cheek and give an amazing result.

Upper and lower blepharoplasty can be undertaken at the same time and in combination with other procedures, it is a very powerful technique to rejuvenate the face and turn back the clock.

Dr Pincock offers the latest techniques in this surgery that he learned overseas and has brought to Sydney. For more information see this website
