When considering facial rejuvenation for your midface, jawline, and neck, you might encounter terms like "midface lift" or "deep plane facelift." These terms, however, are simply details of the techniques surgeons use: not the results you can expect. Imagine them as an artist's brushstrokes – unique to the individual style each surgeon uses to create the desired outcome.
As the central facial feature, the size and shape of your nose can have a significant impact on your overall facial appearance and proportions. Rhinoplasty specialist Dr. Athré offers a full range of rhinoplasty procedures and advanced techniques to minimize recovery and deliver natural-looking, exquisite results. Refine your nasal contours and facial harmony while preserving your authentic look with Dr. Athré. Schedule your consultation to discuss the details of your personalized rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, or ethnic rhinoplasty in Houston.
Fat transfer to the face is a rejuvenating procedure that uses excess fat from areas of the body, such as the abdomen, flanks, and thighs to restore youthful facial volume and skin elasticity. Because facial fat transfer uses your own fat, it delivers permanent results with no need for re-injection later on. Using a liposuction process designed to harvest smaller fat droplets, Dr. Athre is able to inject fat into even the most delicate areas (such as the lips and tear trough) to enhance volume, plump skin, and refine lines and wrinkles with extreme precision.
A facelift is a surgical procedure designed to lift, tighten, and contour the face to create a more youthful appearance. Double-board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Athré delivers superior facelift results and an experience that goes far beyond the offerings of other plastic surgeons with full facial rejuvenation under local anesthesia. This procedure includes a deep plane facelift, brow lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), fat transfer, and lip rejuvenation within a single procedure without the need for general anesthesia.
A lip lift offers a subtle and naturally rejuvenated appearance by shortening the space between the nose and the upper lip, delivering a fuller appearance and diminishing signs of aging around the mouth. By subtly exposing more of the upper teeth, a lip lift delivers a younger-looking pout without fillers or other injections. Lip lifts can be tailored to eliminate wrinkles above the lip and correct downturned corners of the mouth. By enhancing your lip shape and reducing signs of aging, a lip lift can boost your confidence and overall satisfaction with your appearance.
Blepharoplasty, also known as an eyelid lift, can address both cosmetic and functional concerns around the eyes. It involves removing excess skin and fatty deposits that cause puffiness and drooping to reveal a more energized and youthful appearance. For patients whose upper eyelids obstruct their field of vision, blepharoplasty can remove excess tissue to restore or enhance peripheral sight. For the lower lids, blepharoplasty can eliminate wrinkles, undereye bags, and dark circles for a bright, refreshed look.
A brow lift is a rejuvenating procedure that addresses signs of aging in the upper portion of the face, offering a younger appearance and a long-lasting confidence boost. By lifting sagging brows and tightening the skin on the forehead, a brow lift effectively reduces horizontal wrinkles to create a smooth and youthful look. While a brow lift offers significant benefits as a standalone procedure, it is often combined with other treatments, such as blepharoplasty, neck lift, and facelift surgeries, to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation in a single surgical procedure.
Rhinoplasty has always been the impossible quest.
There are several reasons for this. First and foremost, the nose is in the absolute center of the face. It is obvious, it is visible, and it is on display. Therefore, when operating on the nose, “good” is not good enough. Perfection is the only acceptable result. Dr. Athré believes that the result of any rhinoplasty should be straight, soft, balanced, and natural.
At Athré Facial Plastics, we believe in providing the best possible care, which means looking after every part of your experience, including how you heal. Dr. Athré offers Elixir MD, a special recovery treatment that helps patients heal up to 50% faster after facial surgery.
Elixir MD helps ease swelling, bruising, and tenderness so you can start enjoying your results sooner. It's part of Dr. Athré's promise to bring you the latest tools that truly make a difference and to keep your recovery smooth, simple, and comfortable. Here’s how Elixir MD supports you through every stage:
Elixir MD uses different types of light energy to guide your body’s natural healing process, choosing just the right wavelengths at the right time to help you bounce back faster.
It’s one more way Dr. Athré ensures you receive the expert care and attention you deserve, from your first consultation to your final results.
As the leading rhinoplasty surgeon in Houston, Dr. Athré offers advanced techniques offered by only a few doctors throughout the U.S.
Sculpt Your Perfect Nose: Unveiling the Benefits of Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty in Houston
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty uses high-frequency sound waves to reshape your nose less invasively than traditional surgery. With more precise bone sculpting, this cutting-edge technique allows for a more natural-looking outcome while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues. Ultrasonic rhinoplasty delivers less swelling, bruising, and discomfort, translating to better results with less recovery.
Breathe Easier, Look Better: The Advantages of Dorsal Preservation Rhinoplasty in Houston
Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty is a technique for refining the nose bridge while maintaining its natural support structure.

Dr. Athré personally performs every procedure to ensure precise application and a naturally rejuvenated outcome. Going beyond what’s expected with injectables like Botox and dermal fillers, Dr. Athré has developed his own proprietary injectable application to restore volume and soften lines below the eyes. Undereye filler requires exceptional finesse compared to injectable treatments in other areas of the face. OcuRX involves injecting filler in the area below the eye to the orbital rim in stages (within a single appointment) to ensure impeccably natural-looking results.

Facial plastic surgery offers a multitude of benefits for individuals seeking to enhance their facial features and address concerns such as signs of aging, asymmetry, or congenital abnormalities. Through various procedures like facelifts, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, and chin augmentation, facial plastic surgery aims to achieve natural-looking results that harmonize with the patient’s overall facial aesthetics. These procedures can target specific areas of the face, such as the forehead, eyes, nose, or chin, to restore youthfulness, balance proportions, and improve facial symmetry.
Despite its transformative potential, it’s essential to acknowledge the limitations of facial plastic surgery. While plastic surgery can produce significant improvements in appearance, it cannot entirely halt the aging process or prevent future changes. Additionally, plastic surgery requires careful consideration and consultation with a qualified surgeon to ensure realistic expectations and desired outcomes. It’s crucial for patients to understand that facial plastic surgery is not a one-size-fits-all solution and that individual results may vary based on factors such as skin type, age, and overall health. Nevertheless, for many individuals, facial plastic surgery can be a life-changing experience, offering newfound confidence and satisfaction with their appearance. By harnessing the expertise of a skilled Houston facial plastic surgeon and innovative techniques, surgery continues to empower individuals to embrace their beauty and live life to the fullest.
Let’s understand the entire process of plastic surgery. The process of facial plastic surgery involves several key steps aimed at achieving desired aesthetic improvements while prioritizing patient safety and satisfaction. Plastic surgery begins with a comprehensive consultation between the patient and the plastic surgery doctor, where specific goals and concerns are discussed in detail. During this initial phase, the plastic surgeon evaluates the patient’s facial anatomy, skin condition, and overall health to develop a personalized treatment plan. Once a surgical approach is agreed upon, the plastic surgery procedure commences under carefully administered anesthesia to ensure patient comfort throughout. Throughout the surgical process, the plastic surgeon utilizes advanced techniques and specialized instruments to sculpt and refine facial contours, addressing areas of concern such as wrinkles, sagging skin, or asymmetry. Following the completion of the procedure, meticulous attention is given to wound closure and dressing application to support optimal healing. Post-operative care and follow-up appointments are then provided to monitor progress and address any concerns after the plastic surgery, ensuring that patients achieve the best possible outcomes from their facial plastic surgery experience.
