Overview

'Beauty is more than skin deep....it goes all the way to the bone'. How the face looks at the outside has a lot to do with how it is shaped on the inside. Like a roof on a house, the outer appearance of the face is highly influenced by the shape of the bone underneath it. Understanding and treating facial bone problems has a long history in plastic surgery. Since World War I, when trench warfare created a large number of severe facial injuries, plastic surgeons have been rebuilding, rearranging, and enhancing facial bones. Today's plastic surgeons pay particular attention in cosmetic surgery to how the skin, fat and muscle of the face redrapes over the bones, knowing full well its influence on the outer visible shape. Whether it is a facelift, nose job, or making one's face more gender specific, changing the shape of the underlying bone can lead to a better balanced and more attractive face. Dr. Barry Eppley, board-certified plastic surgeon of Indianapolis, takes you down deep inside the face on a tour of its palpable architecture. Learn how many of the common, and some less well known, cosmetic facial bone procedures work and help make for more beautiful faces.
