Facial Rejuvenation in Dubai
An anatomy-led, maxillofacial approach by Dr Marc-Kevin Le Roux
Time reshapes the face from the bone outward: ligaments loosen, fat pads shift, skin thins, and micro-movements etch lines. My role is to restore proportion and freshness—subtly—using the lightest intervention that achieves your goal, from precision injectables to structure-reset surgery.
Ageing explained in 60 seconds
- Structure: slow skeletal remodelling and ligament laxity reduce support.
- Volume: selective fat atrophy and descent flatten the midface and sharpen shadows.
- Skin: collagen/elastin and natural HA decline; UV, pollution and smoking accelerate change.
Understanding which layer is responsible guides the right treatment—muscle, volume, skin or deep support.
Non-surgical refinement (minimal downtime)
Hyaluronic acid fillers
Targeted contouring and hydration to:
- Soften static lines and lift shadows (e.g., tear trough, nasolabial fold)
- Restore projection (cheek, chin, lips) while preserving expression
- Improve skin plumpness and light reflection
Botulinum toxin (Botox®)
Neuromodulation to relax overactive muscles:
- Frown lines (glabella), forehead lines, crow’s feet
- Masseter slimming in selected bruxism or jawline-widening cases
Results are natural—movement remains, tension reduces.
Surgical rejuvenation (longer-lasting correction)
When laxity or tissue descent dominates, surgery repositions rather than “pulls”.
Re-suspends descended tissues and refines the jawline–neck unit.
- Mini-lift: ideal for mild to moderate laxity with faster recovery. Technique is tailored to your anatomy to avoid over-correction.
Opens the eye area by restoring brow position and curve, reducing hooding for a rested look.
Shortens an elongated upper lip, restores youthful dental show and balances lip proportions without over-filling.
Brightens and smooths the lid–cheek transition.
- Upper: removes excess skin that weighs on the eyelid (sometimes affecting vision).
- Lower: treats bags and deep grooves via conservative fat removal or redistribution to prevent hollowing.
How we plan your result
- Layer analysis: muscle, volume, skin and support are mapped to your goals.
- Staged plan: start light (toxins/HA), add energy-based care or surgery only if indicated.
- Natural code: techniques respect your features, expressions and cultural aesthetic.
Recovery at a glance
- Injectables: back to routine the same day; transient swelling/bruise possible 24–48 h.
- Mini-lift / blepharoplasty: most patients resume social life within ~1–2 weeks (individual variation).
Maintaining results
- Daily HA-rich, antioxidant skincare; broad-spectrum SPF 50.
- Balanced nutrition (vitamins A/C/E, omega-3).
- Avoid smoking/excess alcohol to protect collagen.
- Planned touch-ups (toxins/fillers) to preserve harmony over time.

FAQs
Fillers, toxin or surgery—how do I choose?
Movement lines → botulinum toxin. Volume loss/shadows → HA fillers. Marked laxity/jowls/neck bands → facelift or neck-focused surgery. Assessment aligns findings with the least-invasive option that will genuinely work.
How long do results last?
Botulinum toxin ~3–5 months; HA fillers ~9–18 months (area/product dependent); surgical rejuvenation lasts several years, influenced by genetics, lifestyle and skincare.
Will I still look like myself?
Yes. Planning focuses on proportion and soft-tissue harmony—no over-filling or over-tightening.
Is blepharoplasty always fat removal?
No. Modern techniques often reposition fat to smooth contours and avoid hollowing.
