Looking younger is an obsession for women. We would do anything to just take five, ten or fifteen years off our faces, necks, hands and chests. Aside from skincare products, what can be done to make us look younger? An experienced cosmetic surgeon Los Angeles advises women to have the following surgeries to take years off the appearance of their faces:

Eyelid tuck – an eyelid tuck basically removes excess skin from the upper eyelid. As we age we lose fat around our eyes and our skin isn't nearly as elastic as it once was. The skin thins, which leads our eyes to show veins, dark circles and other imperfections. Eyelid tucks give the appearance of a much more youthful, open eye without a surprised look. Recent advances in the way these surgeries are performed have drastically improved the final result.

After an eyelid tuck, some products available through Dr. Calvert's website at / can be used to gently bleach away dark circles. Other products give skin the moisture it needs and helps the healing process go more smoothly. There are even creams that can be bought to make the skin start producing collagen naturally.

Facelift – traditional facelifts are done by incising the skin along the hairline behind the temples and cutting away the excess before reconnecting tissue. The way this surgery is performed has been adjusted by a few cosmetic surgeons in Los Angeles. Now the skin along the jaw line all the way up to the forehead is "tucked" and the overall effect is much more natural. Patients come out looking a lot less like Joan Rivers and more like a younger version of themselves.

Hair implants – hair implants once looked fake and, to be blunt, bad. Now real hair is used and surgically implanted into hair follicles. The look is natural and aesthetically pleasing. Hair implants are an in office procedure. Now downtime is required and minimal pain is involved. Hair continues to grow as naturally as if it were always yours. Both men and women are now using hair implants to thicken their hair.

Rhinoplasty – as we age our noses continue to grow. Noses that were once considered cute and round become more bulbous and those that were once aquiline appear to be overly long. If you have experienced a nasal fracture, the resulting bumps, lumps and crookedness becomes more pronounced as the years pass. Rhinoplasty is a great way to improve the appearance of the nose. Just about any problem with the nose can be solved with this procedure. It is important to find a surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasty though because dermatologists often try to convince patients that they can perform this procedure. The results are never as good as with a plastic surgeon.
