Vertical creases that run from the corners of the mouth down toward the chin, giving the lower face a downturned look. They deepen over time as skin loses volume and elasticity.
The lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth, sometimes called smile lines or laugh lines. They become more pronounced as cheek volume shifts with age.
Horizontal creases across the forehead that show when you raise your eyebrows and, over time, remain visible even at rest. They are one of the most common early signs of facial aging.
The short vertical lines between the eyebrows, often called "11 lines", created by repeatedly frowning or concentrating. They can make the face look tired or stern even when relaxed.
Loose skin and soft tissue that droops below the jawline, blurring the border between the face and neck. Jowls develop gradually as skin and supporting structures lose firmness.
A pocket of fullness under the chin that creates the look of a second chin. It can appear with weight changes, genetics, or aging, and often persists despite diet and exercise.
A chin that sits noticeably behind the lips in profile, making the jawline look short or undefined. Adding projection can bring the lower face into better balance with the nose and forehead.
Hollow or flat cheeks caused by loss of facial fat, whether from aging, genetics, or significant weight loss. Restoring midface volume can make the whole face look fuller and more rested.
Hollowing at the temples, beside the eyes, that can make the upper face look narrow or gaunt. It is a common but often overlooked sign of facial volume loss.
Eyebrows that have drifted downward over time, crowding the upper eyelids and giving the eyes a heavy or tired appearance. Lifting the brow opens up the entire upper face.
Vertical cords or bands that stand out on the front of the neck, caused by the platysma muscle becoming more visible with age. They can make the neck look older than the face.
The small fan-shaped lines that spread from the outer corners of the eyes, most visible when smiling or squinting. They are typically among the first wrinkles to appear.
Puffiness or bulging beneath the eyes caused by fat pads shifting forward and skin loosening. Bags can make the face look tired even after a full night's sleep.
Shadowing or discoloration under the eyes that can come from thin skin, visible blood vessels, pigmentation, or hollowing. The right approach depends on what is causing the darkness.
The groove that runs from the inner corner of the eye down across the upper cheek. A deep tear trough casts a shadow that reads as dark circles or a tired look.
Excess or sagging skin on the upper eyelids that can hood the eyes, make applying makeup difficult, and in advanced cases even narrow the field of vision.
A bump of bone or cartilage along the bridge of the nose, most visible in profile. It can be reduced surgically or visually smoothed with carefully placed filler.
A nose that appears broad across the bridge or nostrils relative to the rest of the face. Reshaping can narrow the bridge, the nostril base, or both.
A rounded, full nasal tip caused by wide or thick tip cartilage. Refining the tip is one of the most requested changes in nose reshaping.
A nose that deviates to one side, whether from injury, prior surgery, or natural growth. Straightening may involve the outer structure, the internal septum, or both.
A shift of the wall between the nostrils that can block airflow, cause congestion, and sometimes bend the outside of the nose. Correcting it is often combined with cosmetic reshaping.
Ears that stick out noticeably from the head, a trait that is usually present from childhood. Surgery can pin the ears back into a more typical position.
Lips that are naturally slim or have lost fullness with age. Volume can be added temporarily with fillers or more permanently with implants, fat, or a lift.
Fine vertical lines around the mouth, sometimes called smoker's lines or lipstick lines because makeup tends to bleed into them. They come from sun exposure, repeated lip movement, and thinning skin.
A smile that shows a large amount of gum above the upper teeth. It can be softened by relaxing the muscles that lift the lip or by adjusting the lip's resting position.
An elongated space between the nose and the upper lip, which can make the upper lip look thin and hide the teeth when smiling. Shortening this distance can rejuvenate the lower face.
Breakouts of pimples, blackheads, and inflamed bumps caused by clogged pores and bacteria. Beyond home skincare, in-office treatments target active breakouts and help prevent scarring.
Pitted, rolling, or raised marks left behind after acne heals. Resurfacing, microneedling, and fillers can smooth the skin's texture and soften the appearance of scars.
Visible marks left by injuries, surgery, or skin conditions. Depending on the scar's type and age, options range from topical care to resurfacing or surgical revision.
Creases and folds that develop as skin loses collagen and elasticity and as repeated expressions leave their mark. Treatments can relax the muscles involved, refill lost volume, or rebuild the skin itself.
The earliest and shallowest wrinkles, faint lines that appear before deeper creases set in. Gentle resurfacing and collagen-stimulating treatments can keep them from progressing.
Flat brown patches, also called age spots or liver spots, that appear on skin after years of sun exposure, most often on the face, chest, and hands. Light and laser treatments can break up the pigment.
Patches of brown or gray-brown discoloration, usually on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip, often triggered by hormones and worsened by sun. It tends to be stubborn and is usually managed with peels and pigment-focused treatments.
A common skin condition that causes persistent facial redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and sometimes acne-like bumps. Vascular lasers and light therapy can reduce the redness.
Pores that look noticeably large, most often on the nose and cheeks, due to oil production, genetics, and loss of skin firmness. Treatments that refine texture and boost collagen make them less visible.
Blotchiness, patchy pigmentation, or overall dullness that keeps skin from looking uniform. Peels, light-based treatments, and exfoliating facials can restore a more even complexion.
Skin that has lost its snap and started to sag on the face, neck, or body, whether from aging or weight loss. Energy-based tightening and surgical lifting address different degrees of laxity.
Streaks that appear when skin stretches quickly during growth, pregnancy, or weight change, starting red or purple and fading to pale lines. Microneedling and laser resurfacing can improve their texture and color.
Hair growth on the face or body that shaving, waxing, or plucking only manages temporarily. Light- and laser-based hair removal offers a longer-lasting reduction.
Raised or flat brown growths on the skin. Bothersome or cosmetically unwanted moles can be removed, though any changing mole should first be evaluated by a doctor.
Localized pockets of fat on the belly, flanks, thighs, or elsewhere that resist diet and exercise. Non-surgical body contouring can reduce these areas without incisions.
Buttocks that lack fullness or projection, whether naturally or after weight loss. Volume can be added using the body's own fat or with injectable collagen stimulators.
Hands that show their age through thinning skin, prominent veins and tendons, and sun spots. Fillers restore lost volume while light and laser treatments even out the skin.
The dimpled, uneven skin texture that commonly appears on the thighs and buttocks, caused by fat pushing against fibrous bands under the skin. Energy-based and injection treatments can smooth its appearance.
Gradual loss of hair density on the scalp affecting both men and women. Injection-based therapies aim to stimulate the follicles and encourage thicker regrowth.
