Face LiftA Facelift, sometimes referred to as a Rhytidectomy, is used to reduce the excess skin from your face. You may be a candidate for this procedure if you have the appearance of jowls and deep creases between the base of the nose and the corners of the mouth. Other signs of needing this procedure are if you think you have a tired facial appearance, or if you believe you have developed facial and neck wrinkles. Dr. Malek believes in making you have a more youthful, natural appearance, one that would lead people to believe that you are aging great, not that you have had plastic surgery. We require all patients who have a facelift to stay one night at the Surgery Recovery Center . You will go home with your head and neck wrapped in dressings, which are usually removed within the couple days after surgery. There is minimal discomfort with this procedure which is controlled with pain medications. Aesthetically your recovery will be longer than your discomfort, usually lasting 7-10 days. The final result is evident in 4-6 weeks or sooner with continued improvement for several months. |
