Your face greets you in the mirror, it is the first thing that people notice when they meet you, and it validates your identity. If aging, weight loss, or other factors have changed your appearance, or if you would simply like to improve your natural features, facial plastic surgery can help you achieve the look you desire. Indianapolis plastic surgeon Wally Zollman, MD, custom-tailors facial procedures to meet the unique needs and cosmetic goals of each patient. His experience and surgical skill, combined with his aesthetic expertise, allow him to create results that look natural and beautiful, rather than overdone.
If you are considering facial plastic surgery, the first step is a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Zolman. During the consultation process, he performs a physical evaluation, reviews your medical history, and discusses your cosmetic concerns. If you are a good candidate for surgery, he will suggest the procedure or procedures that are suited your needs. Our facial plastic surgery options include:
Facelift
Facelift surgery is one of the most popular procedures Dr. Zollman performs. A facelift can rejuvenate the lower third of the face and define the jawline by surgically addressing skin laxity, deep creases, and fat deposits that contribute to an aging appearance. Sagging skin and musculature along the neck can also be lifted and tightened for a more youthful look.
MACS Facelift
The MACS Facelift is a specialized facelift technique that uses smaller incisions and requires less recovery time than a traditional full facelift. This method is often ideal for treating mild to moderate facial skin laxity. The small incisions are well hidden within the hairline, and a single incision beneath the chin can provide access for liposuction.

Eyelid Surgery / Blepharoplasty
Cosmetic eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, can reduce visible signs of aging from around the eyes by removing excess skin and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. This procedure can create smoother, more youthful contours around the eyes for a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. Blepharoplasty may also be performed to restore the full field of vision for patients with sight impairment caused by sagging upper eyelids.

Rhinoplasty
Frequently referred to as a “nose job,” rhinoplasty surgery can accomplish both cosmetic and functional improvements to the nose. Dr. Zollman can make a wide range of aesthetic adjustments to various aspects of the nose including changes to the nostrils, nasal bridge, and the angle of the nose’s tip. For individuals with impaired nasal breathing, Dr. Zollman may be able to improve airflow by surgically optimizing the nasal airways.
Otoplasty
Cosmetic ear surgery, referred to as otoplasty, is a procedure that can reposition the ears to reduce protrusion. This procedure is sometimes called “ear pinning”, and is most frequently performed for children who are between 5 and 14 years old. In addition to the cosmetic advantages of otoplasty, many children experience a boost in self-esteem as a result of the procedure.
Facial Rejuvenation
Many factors can accelerate facial aging. Hormonal changes, sun exposure, environmental pollution, smoking habits, lack of nutrients, stress, and even certain medical conditions may cause blemishes, wrinkles, diminished facial volume, uneven pigmentation, and age spots. The dynamic facial rejuvenation techniques we offer can effectively treat a wide range of skin and facial concerns to provide you with a more beautiful, youthful appearance.
