 An impending high school reunion had one recent patient of Dr. Sonny O looking in the mirror and not happy with her reflection. Tracy states, “I was feeling self conscious about my appearance. There was excessive skin at the base of my neck that made me look like an old lady.” After some research, and recommendation from friends, she chose the Timeless Lift, an in-office procedure that can help remove years of aging off of the face and neck. This is exactly what Tracy was looking for, “I could hold my neck back and see it was taking years off of my face. Dr. Sonny O and the Timeless Lift came highly recommended by two people.” The Timeless Face Lift provides an enhancement and tightening of the skin for a more youthful appearance with less anesthesia and recovery time required. With local anesthesia only, Dr. O uses an artistic eye to lift critical areas affected by aging such as the neck, eyes and brow. The process begins with a consultation with Dr. Sonny O and his team. Tracy explains, “My first consultation was very thorough. I met with several people. They explained the procedure. I trusted Dr. O. I liked what he said, and what he showed me.”  
As far as the high school reunion, Tracy can’t wait to see her former classmates. “I am getting ready to go to the reunion and I am so looking forward to this. I am so thrilled with the results.” Specializing in facial plastic surgery procedures, Dr. Sonny O is board certified in plastic surgery and leads the market locally and nationally in experience. Learn more about the Timeless Lift. Recognizing that less can sometimes be more, the Timeless Face Lift is sometimes referred to as a mini lift that refreshes features and can help diminish signs of aging. Some call it a mini lift with major results. Dr. Sonny O explains, “This is my vision on how to address the aging facial and neck region for both men and women. The lift procedure is customized to address the patient’s concerns.” Tracy agrees, “I am so thrilled with the results. After the procedure my husband walked in the room and tears came to his eyes and he told me, ‘honey you look exactly like you did when I first laid eyes on you.’”

Intense Pulse Light - IPL
If you have sun damage, age spots, redness, or even small vessels, then IPL is your go to treatment choice to address your concerns. Many times it is referred as a photofacial as it brightens up dull skin, leaving you with a clearer complexion and eliminating needs for those photo filters.

The Palomar 1540 Fractional Laser System is a great addition to the ThreeforMe.

The result is smoother, younger-looking skin with improved color, texture and tone. The 1540 helps patients to achieve a more uniform skin color and reduce imperfections, acne scars and/or enlarged pores, as well as is the ultimate collagen booster.

Enjoy free area of dysport when 2 or more fillers are purchased by 3/1/2019
Smooth wrinkles and refresh your features without having to go under the knife. Achieve natural results now with Dr. Sonny O’s well-honed liquid lift skills. “I like that he took the expertise of a plastic surgeon and applied it to how he could refresh my features, turning back the clock without giving me that ‘real housewives’ fake look. I’m not opposed to doing the surgical lift on my big decade birthday,” shares a Timeless Now patient. “For now, Dr. O’s Liquid Lift targeted my jawline, cheeks and darkening eye troughs for an instant refresh.”
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports that the number of minimally-invasive cosmetic treatments increased 200 percent since 2000, with Botox/Dysport and fillers at the top of the list. “A lot of our patients find caring about their appearance part of remaining vital, confident and having the exterior reflect how they feel inside,” says practice manager, Kylene Surowiec. “They look to us to keep pace with rapidly advancing treatments associated with less down time. It is not so much about whether they will treat the signs of facial aging, but rather what method of treatment they will decide to use.” Enter, the Liquid Lift and the Timeless Glow signature offerings.
liquid lifts
Wrinkle-smoothing injectables are non-invasive cosmetic treatments with low-downtime that freshens and smooths wrinkles. They temporarily freeze the facial muscles and treat the lines formed from repetitive facial movements like squinting and smiling. Dr. O prefers Dysport for the Liquid Lift, “Dysport smooths more evenly to provide a naturally soft look that is less expensive, and patients don’t stop seeing its benefits after prolonged use.”
Dysport is a protein extracted from Clostridium Botulinum, a bacterium. It has a low protein concentration and therefore offers a better spreading effect as compared to Botox. Even spreading provides a more natural and softer look to the forehead. It is injected into the facial muscles that, when constricted, cause the glabellar lines (known as the frown lines) between the eyebrows, the smile lines or crows feet for the eyes, as well as the forehead lines disappear. Over time Botox injections are no longer effective as they cause an immune response in patients. Because Dysport uses lesser amount of proteins than Botox, patients elicit a milder immune response and the injectable continues to work over time.
Two syringes of Restylane soft-tissue hyaluronic fillers are customized in their use depending on the patient’s unique facial aging symptoms. Facial contouring is what sets Dr. O’s liquid lift apart. Targeting the cheeks, jawline, chin, and marionette folds, the Liquid Lift is a non-surgical procedure in which dermal fillers are injected into the face to enhance different angles and temporarily lift facial features.

“When I determine each patient’s best tactic for shedding years from their face, the contour of the jaw line and cheeks are so important. Subtly defining lights and shadows that develop from sinking, sagging and other typical aging signs and symptoms can greatly improve overall facial appearance,”
says Dr. Sonny O of Timeless You Dr. Sonny o Plastic Surgery.
Dr. O naturally-contours lips versus creating a large puffy lip. Natural-looking results around the mouth area are achieved using Juvéderm Volbella XC to softly plump and contour lips (not volumize) and smooth marionette lines. Say good-bye to the “duck lip” days.
timeless glow
A signature hybrid of Intense Pulse Light (IPL) to even skin tone and enhance collagen with injectables to smooth lines is the foundation of Dr. O’s Timeless Glow. While the Liquid Lift is an overall refreshment of the face by defining facial contouring and line smoothing, the Timeless Glow concentrates on the quality of your skin. It focuses on bringing back youthful glow, decreasing pore size, boosting collagen development and simultaneously smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. Patients vary of the number of units needed for smoothing and IPLs recommended.
Many believe plastic surgery is solely about appearance. What some may not realize is that some procedures spark much more than just a physical change. Dr. O explains, “People come to us with an area that has concerned them, usually for years. While we see an improvement in one’s appearance after a procedure, we also see an improvement in their self confidence and their self esteem,” says Dr. Sonny O of Dr. Sonny O Plastic Surgery.
A recent article from Australia examines the correlation between plastic surgery and self confidence. It states, “It’s no secret that plastic surgery has the ability to make a profound impact on the lives of patients... plastic surgery is undoubtedly one of the most impactful and commonplace disciplines within the modern medical field.” These impacts on a patient often occur inside and out. The article continues, “Whereas in the past appearance-altering procedures might have been seen as a narcissistic luxury, they are now widely accepted as perfectly normal and are encouraged as a means of living a better, more fulfilled life.”
Helping patients feel beautiful both inside and out for 14 years, Dr. Sonny O practices facial and body cosmetic surgery in the Charleston area. After thousands of unique procedures involving the latest techniques in facial and neck rejuvenation, Dr. Sonny O is a nationally trusted plastic surgeon in facial artistry. He states, “People come to us with an area that has concerned them, usually for years. Once they address that concern with plastic surgery, patients seem happier and lighter. They hold their heads a little higher because they feel better about their appearance and therefore are more confident. This is the most rewarding part of the job!”
Dr. Sonny O is committed to uncovering each patient’s natural beauty. Located in Mt. Pleasant South Carolina, Dr. Sonny O Plastic Surgery provides face, body and breast rejuvenation with a full range of surgical and non-surgical solutions. Personalized consultations and customized plans are designed for each patient with Dr. Sonny O.

The patients have spoken and they want natural looking results in 2019. In a recent article from Plastic Surgery Practice, many physicians highlighted natural results as a trend for the upcoming year. Dr. O agrees and has helped patients in the past achieve natural results through various procedures. Some of those include Timeless Lift, FaceTite and more.
Timeless Lift
The Timeless Face Lift is a neck lift that provides an enhancement and tightening of the skin for a more youthful appearance with less anesthesia and recovery time required. With local anesthesia only, Dr. O uses an artistic eye to lift critical areas affected by aging such as the neck, eyes and brow. Recognizing that less can sometimes be more, the Timeless Face Lift is sometimes referred to as a mini lift that refreshes features and can help diminish signs of aging. Timeless Lift can erase lines and wrinkles, redefine your neck and jaw line, and reduce loose skin with natural looking results.
facetite
One non surgical procedure that can help achieve natural looking results without much downtime is FaceTite. Says Dr. O, “This is the latest technology and it targets lower face and neck region. The recovery is very quick. The patients get good noticeable results.” FaceTite can redefine the jawline and delivers results previously only achieved through more extensive excisional surgical procedures. Powered by Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis, FaceTite delivers rapid and uniform heating of the entire soft tissue matrix to eliminate fat and tighten up loose skin. Perfect for patients 40 and up, the procedure takes less than one hour and is performed under local anesthesia sometimes with oral medication so patients remain comfortable. After the procedure, patients see immediate result with continued gradual improvement as new collagen is produced.
product: skinceuticals
h.a. intensifier
One product that Dr. O’s team recommends to help enhance natural beauty is the SkinCeuticals H.A.Intensifier. In some instances, it not only enhances but replaces volume loss. Kylene explains, “H.A. Intensifier increases hyaluronic acid by 30%. This is the same ingredient found in fillers. You start losing this naturally in your 20's and by your 50's it is gone. This product is a great way to replenish it.” The same ingredient found in fillers, this product topically enhances what the fillers provided by Dr. O address internally.

Laura, Dr. Sonny O’s Patient Coordinator, is the first person to greet patients in the Mt. Pleasant location. Many are struck by her warmth, but also by her beauty. Laura often works with patients with make up and skin care tips to help them look and feel their best. And many want to know...what’s her secret?
Laura, who often ensures that patient’s receive individualized care, details what products and procedures she turns to for her timeless beauty. Starting with products, Laura’s top skincare line is Skinceuticals. She states, “Skinceuticals has developed a skincare line that is not only backed by science, but actually gives REAL results.” Specifically, Laura's top products that she uses are: Purifying Cleanser and CE Ferulic, a daytime antioxidant serum that delivers advanced UV and environmental protection, improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness, and brightens skin's complexion. In addition, she turns to Retinol 0.3, Resveratrol BE, a nighttime antioxidant, and Triple Lipid Restore, an anti aging treatment cream to refill surface lipids which nourish and support the skin's ability to repair itself while diminishing the signs of aging.

Often Dr. Sonny O combines products like these with surgical and nonsurgical treatment options to help skin stay refreshed. He customizes to each patient. For Laura, he suggested the Timeless Glow. This is a comprehensive line of procedures and products that can help minimize the look of wrinkles by utilizing facial laser skin resurfacing combined with Dyport or Botox® Cosmetic with fillers such as Restylane Silk and Refyne.
Laura began with 6 IPLs (photofacials) on her face. An IPL is a non-ablative intense pulse light that has helped many women improve the appearance of their skin. The major benefit is that it is a completely non-invasive procedure, and patients experience zero to minimal down time while still achieving impressive results for visible skin rejuvenation.
In addition to photofacials, Dr. O suggested the injectible Dysport for Laura for lines on her glabella and forehead. Dr. Sonny O has been utilizing injectables like Dysport and Botox to help revitalize the faces of women and men for more than a decade. This was combined with Restylane Lyft for her cheeks and Restylane Silk and Refyne for her lips to rejuvenate areas that had volume loss and add instant hydration.
Laura’s Timeless Beauty is both inside and out. She often helps patients feel their best. To schedule a customized consult, purchase products, or schedule the procedures like the Timeless Glow, contact Dr. Sonny O at 843-388-4939 or schedule here.
