It’s time to invest in yourself and as a board certified surgeon, Dr. Sanovich recommends winter as the ideal time to schedule your cosmetic procedures. Less intense Texas sun, more time spent comfortably indoors, and high-neck sweaters and coats are great for a smooth and discreet recovery. So, as we head into winter, let's talk about the most popular cosmetic facial surgeries our Dallas patients are choosing most often during the winter months!
Neck Lift And Lower Face Lift
This is probably one of the biggest concerns we hear about. Softening along the jawline, loose skin on the neck, and pesky bands can be frustrating for some patients. A neck lift, often done with a lower face lift, really helps to tighten things up, smooth out the neck, and bring back that crisp jawline definition!
Winter is great for this as it's easier to hide any swelling or bruising with scarves and higher necklines. Plus, staying out of strong sunlight is always better for healing and you will start to see those nice, refined results really appear as spring gets closer.
Rhinoplasty and Deviated Septum Repair
A nose job, or rhinoplasty, is always high on the list. Especially for patients who want to improve both how their nose looks and how it works. Many people come in struggling to breathe through one side because of a deviated septum, and Dr. Sanovich can fix that while also refining a hump, a wide bridge, or a droopy tip.
If you already have trouble breathing, cooler, drier air can make it worse. Patients are often really motivated to finally get rid of that chronic stuffiness and winter surgery plans fit nicely with school breaks or time off from work, since you usually need about a week away from big social events.
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Eyelid surgery is incredibly popular right now because patients want to look more rested and refreshed, but without looking like they have had "work done." An upper blepharoplasty takes care of that extra skin on your eyelid. A lower blepharoplasty can reduce under-eye bags and smooth out that transition from your eyelid to your cheek.
Any swelling or bruising around the eyes is just easier to manage when you are not out in bright sun all day, but we will recommend tips for managing your healing phase.
Combining Non-Surgical and Surgical Options
A lot of our patients this winter are choosing a smart combination of surgical and non-surgical options. They might get a neck lift or eyelid surgery, and then pair it with something like Potenza RF microneedling to improve skin texture and tightening. By late spring, you will look naturally refreshed without anyone thinking you just had something "done."
If you have been thinking about facial surgery, winter really is an ideal time to plan for it. Come in for a consultation and let's get you ready for 2026! We are offering complimentary neck rejuvenation consults in January 2026 so don't miss out!
