Rhinoplasty (Nasal Surgery)

Dr. William Hedden has achieved remarkable rhinoplasty results at his Alabama practice. His satisfied patients now know that, while having a too-large or misshapen nose is a very common complaint, there's a solution. Rhinoplasty — an extremely popular procedure at our Alabama practice — can give you the smaller, more proportionate nose of your dreams by correcting crookedness, damage from injuries, too-large nostrils and other problems. Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of the nose, change the shape of the tip, narrow the width of the nostrils or change the angle between the nose and the upper lip.

During the rhinoplasty procedure, discreet incisions are made around the nostrils, and excess cartilage is removed, as is any unwanted bump. Internal nasal surgery to improve nasal breathing can be performed at the time of the rhinoplasty. Side effects of rhinoplasty, including swelling, bruising and general discomfort, should subside within 4 weeks.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

Like rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, at our Alabama practice is a very popular way to restore youth to one of your face's most observed features — your eyes. Drooping or sagging eyelids can add years to one's face, making you look much older or more tired than you are. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, can virtually reverse these signs of aging, firming the skin around the eyes and restoring its natural, youthful beauty. Blepharoplasty can also help to improve vision in older patients who have hooding of their upper eyelids.

During the blepharoplasty procedure, extra fat, muscle and tissue are trimmed away, and the delicate skin surrounding the eye is tightened — smoothing away wrinkles and eliminating sagging. Blepharoplasty (performed under anesthesia) takes up to 2 hours to complete and will not prevent any future natural aging. Side effects of eyelid surgery / blepharoplasty include dry eyes, swelling, soreness, bruising and sensitivity to light. To learn more about blepharoplasty, contact our Alabama practice today!

Endoscopic Browlift

The forehead and eyebrow region often show noticeable signs of aging. Looseness in these structures may cause drooping eyebrows, eyelid hooding, forehead furrows and frown lines. A popular procedure to restore your youthful beauty at our Alabama practice is an endoscopic browlift, where the structures are tightened or altered to smooth the forehead, raise the upper eyebrows and improve frown lines.

A minimally invasive alternative and increasingly popular alternative to facelift and traditional browlift, endoscopic browlift leaves virtually no scars and has very few side effects. It is performed using an endoscope, which is carefully inserted under the skin and used to lift and tighten the skin and underlying muscles. A browlift may be performed alone or in conjunction with other procedures, such as a facelift or eyelid surgery.

Subperiosteal or Intraoral Mid-face Lift

Dr. Hedden is experienced in endoscopic subperiosteal face lift at his Alabama practice. Less intrusive than traditional face lift, endoscopic subperiosteal face lift achieves results with minimal side effects.

During this face lift procedure, Dr. Hedden uses an endoscope to gently reposition the skin right above the cheekbone and around the nasolabial folds, smoothing away wrinkles. The outcome of this face lift procedure is a younger-looking appearance with little scarring or other telltale signs of face lift that can be common among traditional face lift patients. To learn more about endoscopic subperiosteal face lift in Alabama, contact us today.

Mid-face Lift

A mid-face lift, available at our Alabama practice, can help reverse the effects of sun damage, aging and changes in weight that cause the skin on the face to wrinkle, sag and stretch, showing age much more quickly than some other parts of the body. Mid-face lift is a great way to take years off your face, and results are natural looking — no one even has to know!

During this form of face lift, tiny incisions are made along the hairline and lower eyelid; excess skin, tissue and fat are removed; and the tissues lying just beneath the eyelid are repositioned, ultimately lifting the corners of the mouth and redefining surrounding features. Side effects of this face lift procedure, including swelling, bruising and general discomfort, typically subside within 2 weeks. To learn more about mid-face lift, contact our Alabama office today!

Contour ThreadLift

Contour ThreadLift logoA Contour ThreadLift with patented Contour Threads is a safe and effective procedure that offers subtle, natural-looking results. This technique allows the physician to produce a relaxed, refreshed appearance while preserving and enhancing the natural contours of your face. Contour ThreadLift does not replace a conventional facelift; rather it offers patients an innovative, minimally invasive approach to achieving facelift-like results.

Standard Necklift

Often performed in conjunction with face lift or neck liposuction, necklift is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove sagging, dropping skin from the neck. During necklift, excess skin, fat and tissue are trimmed away, eliminating wrinkles and folds of extra skin. Remaining skin is stretched and smoothened, ultimately resulting in a more aesthetic and youthful appearance.

Neck Liposuction

Neck liposuction is an excellent way to get rid of any extra fat in the neck. Such a procedure makes the face look much more streamlined and reduces the effects of aging. During neck liposuction, a thin, hollow tube (called a cannula) is used to gently suction out extra fat and tissue, removing deposits that cause drooping and sagging. Once swelling and bruising subside, you'll notice long-lasting results.

Necklift Using Suture Suspension

It's one of the most dreaded signs of aging: the so-called "turkey gobbler." But thanks to modern technology, there is no reason to live with this unsightly imperfection. Dr. Hedden offers several solutions, including the fast, safe and effective suture suspension necklift. During this hour-long procedure, tiny incisions are made behind the ears and beneath the chin, and extra tissue is removed. Remaining skin is tightened and smoothened, leaving a youthful, taut neck with no hint of a turkey gobbler. For more information about suture suspension necklift, please contact us today.

Chin Implants

Chin implants are an ideal way to create balance and definition in the face. By strengthening a weak chin, these implants make features look much more harmonized and attractive. To learn more about chin implants, or orthognathic surgery, please contact us today.

Cheek Implants

Undefined cheek bones can make a face look out of proportion. Cheek augmentation can balance the facial features, filling hollows left by too-small cheekbones and eliminating sagging. Cheek implants are customized to perfectly suit one's face and, once in place, look incredibly natural. To learn more about cheek implants, please contact us today!

Ear Pinning (Otoplasty)

Protruding or exceptionally large ears are enough to make anyone feel insecure or embarrassed about his or her appearance. Ear pinning, or otoplasty, is a permanent solution to this problem. Otoplasty is also used to restore damaged ears. During otoplasty, incisions are made behind the ear and extra cartilage is discarded. The ears are then gently pulled back into correct position, sutured and left to heal.

Fat Grafting

If you're suffering from smile lines, facial scars (such as those left behind by acne) or other imperfections, fat grafting might be just the answer. Fat grafting, also called fat injection or fat transfer, is performed under local anesthetic and produces natural-looking results. Unlike other chemicals or injectables, fat injections rarely result in allergies or uncomfortable side effects because the contents are taken from donor sites on the patient's own body. To learn more about fat grafting, please contact us today.
