Shuster Plastic Surgery

A great deal of information is conveyed by your face. It communicates your emotions to others. It displays the extent to which you appear youthful and healthy. Your face should help you put forth your true essence - your beauty, vitality and passion. Often, these aspects can become obscured due to the aging process.

Everyone has unique and beautiful facial characteristics that make them one of a kind. Over the years, these features may gradually begin to change as they start to show signs of aging. Dr. Shuster's goal with a facelift is to maintain each patient's unique traits while refreshing their appearance in the most natural way possible.

The eyes are often the first thing people notice when looking at your face. Unfortunately, sagging and puffy eyelids can contribute to an aging or constantly tired appearance. Dr. Shuster understands how much of a powerful impact eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, can have on your appearance, making you look younger as well as more rested, refreshed, and alert.

BOTOX Cosmetic is the most effective treatment for the fine facial lines that are a sign of aging. Starting in our early thirties, facial lines, or wrinkles start to form. Some of these are called 'Dynamic Lines'. These are lines which are exacerbated by certain facial expressions.

Examples include: the lines between the eyebrows which deepen when we frown; the lines across our forehead, which are more noticeable when we raise our eyebrows; and the lines around the outside of our eyes (Crow's Feet), which are more evident when we smile or squint.Developing these lines is a natural part of the aging process.

Juvederm is a gel that is injected into the skin in order to add volume to lips and lift up wrinkles and folds. Juvederm consists of hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance already present in your body. Once in the skin, Juvederm works by creating volume. Some dermal fillers are derived from animal substances.
