What To Expect

Where are the facelift incisions placed?
An incision is hidden in the natural contour of your ear, and then extends around the earlobe and back into the hairline. Some patients may be candidates for a "short scar" facelift which requires a much smaller incision that is hidden around the ear and avoids an incision into the scalp. Following facelift surgery and recovery, incisions can be easily concealed by your hair or with makeup. There may also be a small incision hidden underneath your chin.

 

How is the Face Lift Surgery performed?
The procedure requires that the patient be sedated under anesthesia. Once the patient is prepared, the skin is freed from the underlying tissue of the neck and face. This allows the surgeon to tighten the strong, muscle-like tissue beneath. The skin is carefully positioned upward and backward to a naturally more youthful position. All excess skin is then removed. Sometimes fatty tissue from beneath the chin is also removed with or without liposuction.

Things To Know

Where is it done: The Facelift procedure is performed in Florida, NYC, New York, and Boston, in an accredited operating room or hospital

Anesthesia: Yes, IV sedation or general

Preparation: Some patients require their general doctors provide medical clearance

Duration of Surgery: About 3 to 4 hours, depending on how much needs to be done.

Healing: Facelift recovery time is dependent on the extent of the surgery.  Stay the first night in the hospital or hotel room with a registered private duty nurse. The dressing and possibly drains are removed the morning after. Most patients feel well in a few days but are recommended to avoid social contact for up to two weeks due to normal swelling and bruising that may variably occur. Your surgeon will follow up with you in the first week after your facelift to monitor your recovery.

Risks: Discuss with your surgeon before considering.  Our facelift surgical teams in Florida, New York, and Boston will discuss all risks with you before surgery.
