Facial asymmetry can be a source of self-consciousness for many people. It occurs when one side of the face does not match the other in terms of shape, size, or positioning of features. While some degree of asymmetry is normal, significant differences can impact one's appearance and confidence. Facelift surgery, offered by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sean Kelishadi at SSK Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach, CA, is a powerful solution for addressing facial asymmetry. Let's examine how facelift surgery can correct these imbalances and improve facial harmony.

What causes facial asymmetry?

Several factors could be contributing to facial asymmetry, affecting the overall balance and harmony of your face. Understanding these causes is crucial for determining the most effective treatment approach possible. Facelift surgery specifically targets these underlying issues to restore balance and harmony to your appearance. Common causes of facial asymmetry include:

  • Genetics: Inherited traits affecting bone structure and features
  • Environmental factors: Injuries or trauma causing changes
  • Aging: Uneven loss of skin elasticity, muscle tone, and fat distribution

Facelift surgery addresses these issues, helping you achieve a more symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

How does a facelift correct facial asymmetry?

Facelift surgery in Newport Beach can correct facial asymmetry by addressing the underlying structures of your face. During the procedure, Dr. Kelishadi meticulously repositions the skin, muscles, and fat to create a more balanced appearance. This surgical intervention can correct discrepancies in your cheeks, jawline, and neck, where asymmetry is most noticeable. The procedure involves several steps:

  • Lifting and tightening the skin to remove sagging
  • Repositioning facial muscles to enhance symmetry
  • Redistributing or removing fat to balance facial contours

By focusing on these key areas, facelift surgery effectively addresses asymmetry, resulting in a more harmonious and youthful facial appearance.

What are the benefits of facelift surgery for asymmetry?

Facelift surgery offers numerous benefits if you have facial asymmetry. It addresses various aspects of your facial appearance, helping you feel more confident and satisfied with your looks. Additionally, facelift surgery can provide a rejuvenating effect, enhancing your overall appearance. Benefits of facelift surgery include:

  • Enhanced facial symmetry and balance
  • Improved self-confidence and satisfaction
  • Comprehensive facial rejuvenation

These benefits make facelift surgery an attractive option if you're looking to correct facial asymmetry and achieve a more youthful appearance.

Dr. Kelishadi is amazing!!! He made me feel so comfortable! I had Breast Augmentation  May 26th. I'm three months out and loving my results! I was very self conscious  about my chest. My breasts shrunk due to breast feeding. I didn't even want to change in front of my husband.  (he loved them no matter what lol) and now I am feeling so great about it! He said he's even noticed a boost in my confidence level. I love it! i feel good..i feel sexy. I never thought I  would actually go through with getting this done, but Dr. Kelishadi and his staff helped me with every step of the way. He was very caring and checked up on me after surgery. His staff was very nice as well. All so helpful! I highly recommend him!

Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have met the SSK team.  I initially started with the med spa team at SSK and knew that I needed to do a breast augmentation consultation there as well.  From beginning to end, every single doctor/nurse and even Valerie at the front desk, involved in my procedures reached out giving clear instructions and also daily check-ins after my breast aug surgery.   Their patient care is beyond incredible.  The team gives you all of the instructions pre and post op, and they even go as far as giving you a sweet post op bag including the cutest, softest, coziest jump suit to wear into and out of the hospital on surgery day.  I am so so pleased with the team’s attention to detail, but more importantly, they are an exceptional care team you want and need!  Thank you SSK!  -Steph

I recently had a breast revision/augmentation with a lift by Dr Kelishadi and I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon! He is known as the King of Cleavage and definitely lives up to the name. His staff is friendly, professional, and prompt to answer calls and respond to emails. It was also super nice and convenient having Dr Sherry as part of the team helping with all the medications ordered. On my pre op visit, I was given a bag with all the medications I would need for my surgery and recovery. Dr Sherry would text and make sure I didn’t have any questions which was so appreciated. After my surgery, Dr Kelishadi would call and check in to make sure I was doing well. If I had a questions or concerns, Dr Kelishadi would promptly call and answer all the questions I had. He is genuinely a great person and an amazing Surgeon that I would highly recommend.

I recently underwent a transformative experience at SSK Plastic Surgery, having a tummy tuck, muscle repair, and liposuction in the flanks and back. Being a mom to a 10 month old, I was pretty anxious about this procedure but right from my initial consultation, I was confident that I was in the hands of professionals who truly care. Now, just 3 days post-op, I caught a glimpse of my results and I’m beyond thrilled! Dr. Kalishadi’s skillful work has exceeded my expectations.On the day of the surgery, the entire team’s kindness helped alleviate any pre-surgery jitters. Dr. Kalishadi went above and beyond by personally reaching out to check on my recovery. Overall, my experience has been nothing short of amazing, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place for my procedure. I wholeheartedly recommend SSK Plastic Surgery to anyone seeking outstanding results and genuine care. Also shout out to Dr. Sherry, Valerie and Brianna who were also lovely! Thank you all so much!

I recently underwent a breast revision procedure at SSK Plastic Surgery, and I must say that my experience far exceeded my expectations.  From start to finish, the entire journey was seamless, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results.  Here’s why I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kelishadi for anyone considering breast revision: Dr. Kelishadi is an exceptional plastic surgeon.  From the initial consultation to the post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Kelishadi displayed remarkable expertise and a genuine care for my well-being.  He took the time to listen to and provided me with detailed explanations of the procedure.  The entire team at SSK Plastic Surgery was welcoming, friendly and professional.  They made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, and their knowledge and expertise to my needs were remarkable.  One aspect that truly impressed me was the personalized approach they took throughout the entire journey.  I even worked with Dr. Sherrie for my hormones prior to surgery and needless to say I feel much better now.  I felt that she too was invested in my overall health.  Lastly, when it came to deciding the appropriate size for my revision, I had to place my trust in Dr. Kelishadi’s expertise and technique.  I discussed my desired goals with him, and he carefully assessed my body proportions, existing breast tissue and overall aesthetic balance.  Although I had initial apprehension about relinquishing control over to the size decision, I am thrilled to say that I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.  The size chosen by Dr. Kelishadi was absolutely perfect!  I would highly recommend SSK Plastic Surgery!
