Latest Facial Rejuvenation Techniques to be Featured at Free Seminar

FORT MYERS, Fla. - Feb. 16, 2022 - PRLog -- The latest procedures to smooth wrinkles and rejuvenate the face will be explained at a free seminar Friday, March 11, hosted by double board-certified Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr. Stephen Prendiville, medical director of The QiLASIK & Med Spa.

The seminar, which includes a light lunch, starts at 11:30 a.m. at Roy's Restaurant, 26831 S. Bay Drive in Bonita Springs.  The seminar is free, but reservations are required by calling 239-437-3900.  Space is limited.

The newest facelift techniques can rejuvenate the cheek, jawline and neck, Dr. Prendiville said.

'They are especially effective when combined with fractionated laser resurfacing which can reduce or eliminate fine lines, wrinkles and sunspots," he said.

Laser resurfacing also is one of the more popular and effective procedures to reduce skin irregularities such as blemishes and acne scars, according to Dr. Prendiville.

"Individuals who have noticed sagging in the cheek, neck and jawline ares along with fine lines or wrinkles are good candidates for the combined procedures of structural rejuvenation facelift and laser resurfacing," Dr. Prendiville said.

The laser beam used in laser resurfacing removes the outer layer of skin while simultaneously heating the underlying skin, called the dermis.  This action works to stimulate growth of new collagen fibers.  As the treated area heals, the new skin that forms is smoother and firmer.

The two types of laser most commonly used in laser resurfacing are carbon dioxide (CO2) and erbium.  The newest version of CO2 laser resurfacing is the fractionated CO2 which uses very short pulsed light energy or continuous light beams that are delivered in a scanning pattern to remove thin layers of skin with minimal heat damage.

Erbium laser resurfacing is designed to remove surface-level and moderately deep fine line and wrinkles on the face, hands, neck or chest.

Using before and after pictures of actual patients, Dr. Prendiville will discuss the latest advances in facelifts, eyelid lifts, nose surgery, lasers, and reconstructive surgery.  He also will review injectable wrinkle fillers Botox®, Sculptra®, Juvederm®; Restylane®, Restylane Silk®, Radiesse®, Voluma®, Vollure®, and Revanesse Versa® for deeper wrinkles and lines.

Attendees will be able to make an appointment for a free consultation with Dr. Prendiville.

Dr. Prendiville is the only Fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon in Fort Myers who is certified by both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery.  He has performed more than 3,000 surgical procedures.
