Experience the best in facial plastic surgery

Facial aging isn't just about wrinkles. Many factors contribute to a tired, aged appearance. The natural loss of facial volume and elasticity causes the skin to sag and creates droopiness around the folds of the mouth and jawline. Skin texture and tone declines, and facial contours become less plump and youthful-looking.

Our facial plastic surgeons, John P. Flynn, MD, J. David Kriet, MD, and Clinton D. Humphrey, MD, are highly sought after for their skills, expertise and stunning results. They offer the latest facial plastic surgery trends and techniques and have been named the "best doctors" by Kansas City Magazine, formerly 435 Magazine. As part of the region's premier academic medical center, they regularly see patients from Overland Park, Kansas City, Shawnee and beyond.

Facelift surgery is an antiaging surgical procedure that helps you look younger by correcting age-related concerns like wrinkles, sagging skin and facial volume loss. Facelift surgery can:

• Create a more alert, energized appearance
• Remove excess skin around the jawline
• Lift and tighten lax facial muscles
• Minimize or remove the look of jowls
• Reduce or eliminate vertical "neck bands"
• Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
• Improve facial contours by restoring volume

Facelift surgery is often combined with other facial plastic surgery procedures, such as an eyelid lift or brow lift, for more complete results.

Individuals who can benefit from facelift surgery include people who are bothered by a tired, aged appearance that may include sagging skin, wrinkles and/or facial hollowing. Good facelift candidates also have realistic expectations about their results and are healthy and don't smoke.

Our facial plastic surgeons provide a comprehensive approach to facelift surgery to ensure that your results look like you, only better. In the past, facelift surgery was performed by focusing exclusively on tightening the overlying skin. This resulted in an overdone, windblown look.

Today, however, facelift surgery is much more sophisticated. Our surgeons address not only muscle tone, but also facial volume, skin quality and bone structure. This provides a complete, holistic approach to surgery and creates a more natural-looking, long-lasting result.

Our facial plastic surgeons can help you decide if facelift surgery is right for you. If you are interested in improving your appearance, please call 913-588-6701 or fill out the form to request a complementary consultation.
