facing facts
According to Dr. J. David Holcomb, “Youthful beauty is characterized by volume in all the right places and smooth, even-toned skin. Restoring facial harmony and natural beauty very often requires blending the essential components of facial rejuvenation—lifting, volume replacement and skin rejuvenation”—services all offered at Holcomb Facial Plastic Surgery.
Board certified and immediate past president of the Florida Society of Facial Plastic Surgeons, Dr. Holcomb is a highly regarded “face man.” His reputation, precise focus and comprehensive training have helped to ensure that he has a thriving practice. “Medicine is complex. You cannot be the master of everything.” What Dr. Holcomb has mastered is matching technology, lasers, injectables and surgery to each patient’s desire for improvement, lifestyle and budget. He admits that is a tall order. “People are often bewildered and overwhelmed by all of the treatments available for rejuvenation, so it’s very helpful to get back to the basics: lifting sagging tissues, restoring facial volume and improving skin clarity and texture. Addressing each of these essential components enables us to yield the most natural, beautiful results possible.” Highly skilled in treating even the most complex cases, Dr. Holcomb’s gift is translating every element into its simplest terms—whether he is in the operating room or consulting with a new patient. His monthly seminar series, “Timeless Beauty,” helps prospective patients get comfortable with him, his staff and the aspects facial rejuvenation encompasses.

Dr. Holcomb’s patients enjoy a host of customized treatments, including advanced skin-care and laser treatments. Surgery is performed in his AAAHC-accredited surgical center where many procedures are done under IV sedation. “We see each patient frequently, follow them closely and take care of them. Regardless of the treatment we perform, we want patients to leave knowing we are exceptionally trained, confident in our recommendations and have their best interests at heart.”

Inside Information
ANALYZING THE FACE
“As we age, facial volume changes; we tend to lose volume in the midface, lip and chin areas while gaining unwanted volume in other areas—resulting in baggy lower eyelids, jowls and sagging around the neck,” says Dr. Holcomb. “The skin also loses strength and elasticity, leading to wrinkle formation.” As a result, Dr. Holcomb carefully evaluates each patient to “identify where lifting treatments to address volume and/or SKIN RESURFACING PROCEDURES will improve his or her appearance.” “Because we focus on the face, head and neck, we can offer MORE COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTIONS on how to achieve a certain look.” More and more of Dr. Holcomb’s patients are treated with a combination of lifting, through either traditional or endoscopic techniques, volume restoration and laser procedures for the most beautiful, balanced results. “When using an endoscope, I am able to work on the interior structures through very small incisions,” says Dr. Holcomb.
