Facelift and neck lift work

  • Deep plane facelift. Releases the ligaments beneath the SMAS in the lateral and central face so skin, SMAS, platysma and fat pads move as one unit; the incision runs under the sideburn and around the ear; general anesthesia; 3-5 hours (deep plane facelift).
  • Recovery, as the site states it. Inflammation and bruising peak at 3-4 days and mostly subside in 2-3 weeks; sutures out by 2 weeks; return to work at about 2 weeks; no strenuous activity for 6 weeks; about 70% of visible healing at 8 weeks; final result at about 6 months. Out-of-town patients stay 7-14 days (out-of-town patients).
  • Other lift options. Extended deep plane facelift, deep plane mini-facelift for the face without the neck, and endoscopic midface lift (facelift, midface lift).
  • Neck lift. With or without deep neck work: removal of deep fat, trimming of submandibular glands and digastric muscles, and platysmaplasty; return to work about 2 weeks (neck lift).
  • Galleries. Facelift (47 cases listed) and neck lift (51 cases listed).
  • No prices published; cost is set at consultation.
