Abstract

Facial aging is a natural and unavoidable process for everyone. During the third decade of life and beyond, there is a gradual change in facial structure. Recently, the demand for facial rejuvenation has grown given the growth of an aging population that is in pursuit of a younger and fresher appearance that is more in line with their concept of aging. Facial plastic surgeons should understand the anatomical changes of the aging face and must be able to guide a patient through an appropriate rejuvenation strategy ranging from noninvasive, nonsurgical, and minimally invasive procedures to major surgical procedures.
