Facelift Frequently Asked Questions
What is a facelift?
A facelift is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to tighten the skin around a patient’s neck and jaw, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and remove excess fat in the face. This gives the face a more rejuvenated, youthful appearance.
What happens during a facelift?
All facelifts have the same general steps. Most incisions are made in front of and behind the ear, placed where it will fall into the natural crease of the skin. On occasion, the incision will extend into the scalp.
During the actual facelift, the doctor will work with the deeper layers of the face. Usually, the surgeon will separate the skin from the muscle, lift and/or trim what is needed, then re-drape the skin and suture it back in place.What is facelift recovery like?
The typical recovery period is 7 weeks; most surgeons will recommend a facelift to be done a minimum of 3 months before any major event. Medication will be prescribed for recovery, as mild discomfort and moderate swelling of the eyelids and other facial areas may occur. After two weeks, the swelling will subside enough to allow some social activity.
How long do facelift results last?
Something to remember with a facelift is that no matter how skilled your surgeon is, nature and gravity will eventually take it’s effects again. Secondary facelift surgeries are not uncommon, as the skin will sag again, and the areas not targeted by the initial facelift may look laxer than the others.
