Facelift and neck lift work

• Deep plane facelift. His site describes lifting and repositioning the deeper tissue layers through incisions around the ears and hairline (deep plane facelift).
• Neck lift. Tightens sagging skin and removes excess fat through minimal incisions (neck lift).
• Practice pages. Sanctuary's deep plane facelift and neck lift page describes releasing and repositioning the deeper layers, with the neck lift addressing skin, muscle laxity, bands and fat (Sanctuary deep plane page). That page, and the practice's facelift and neck lift pages, name Dr. Soheila Rostami as the surgeon, not Dr. Alharbi.
• Recovery, as printed on the practice page. At least two weeks off work and social activities; mild swelling and bruising for 1-2 weeks; full recovery and final results at about 3-6 months (Sanctuary deep plane page).
• Prices. None published for facelift or neck lift. His site's prices page says pricing varies per treatment plan. The practice's monthly specials list rhinoplasty with Dr. Alharbi at $7,500 all-inclusive for a limited time (monthly specials).
• Galleries. The practice facelift gallery has four pages of cases; cases are not labeled by surgeon.
