What Is A Facelift?
A facelift is the most complex approach to correct facial wrinkles and sagging skin. Depending on your skin, a facelift can range from a minimally invasive lift (mini facelift) to a more elaborate surgery. Your plastic surgeon will remove excess skin, tighten muscles/tissues, and adjust the skin to reveal a youthful face and neck appearance. A facelift addresses various areas of the face: mid-face sagging, deep creases along the nose, loss of volume, and excess skin underneath the chin.

Who Is A Good Facelift Candidate?
Plastic surgery should always be a personal decision that is not influenced by the opinions of others. Patients must be in good health to be considered for this procedure. If you identify with any of the following, then you may be a good candidate for a face lift:
You’re not a smoker or you’re willing to quit smoking 6 weeks before and after surgery
Self conscious about your aging skin
Experience mid-face sagging
Your skin has dropped, but still has elasticity
Deep creases along the eyelid, nose, mouth
Hanging skin underneath your chin
How Long Is Facelift Recovery?
Typically, patients will need at least 1 week off from work and must avoid any cardiovascular activity or heavy lifting (>5lbs) for 2 weeks after their facelift surgery.
It is important to understand that your exact recovery time depends on the extent of your procedure and how your body responds to the surgery. Our team will guide you through your recovery process with post-op instructions in order to ensure a safe and smooth recovery. We also have a 24-hour emergency line if you need to get in contact with one of our nurses during your recovery process.
Are There Different Facelift Incisions?
Yes, there are various incisions that your plastic surgeon will choose between based upon your unique face and needs. However, you will always have an incision around your ears when undergoing a facelift procedure. This usually runs along the hair line either in front and/or behind the ears. The more extensive the procedure is, the larger the incision will be.
Traditional Facelift: Your surgeon will make an incision at the base of your temples following your hairline and around the back of your ears into your lower hairline.
Limited Incision Facelift: Your surgeon will create short incisions along the same pathway: at the base of the temple, around the ears, and into your lower hairline.
Neck Lift: Your surgeon will create incisions beginning at the front of your ears, around the back, and into the lower hairline. Learn more about neck lift surgery here.
