Facelift and neck lift work

  • Extended deep plane facelift. The page contrasts traditional SMAS facelifts, which rely on tension, with an extended deep plane facelift that releases and repositions the deeper tissues without tension on the skin or muscles. Steps listed: general anesthesia, incisions around the ears and possibly under the chin, SMAS release and repositioning, skin redraping (facelift).
  • Other facelift options. Lower facelift for the jawline and jowls; facelift with neck lift for neck bands, loose skin or submental fullness (facelift).
  • Facelift recovery. Normal activities and work within 7 to 14 days; social activities within two to three weeks as swelling and bruising subside.
  • Revision facelift with neck lift. Scar tissue release, SMAS repositioning and platysma work; 10 to 14 days of downtime (revision facelift).
  • Neck lift. Options: deep neck lift (skin, muscle, fat, muscle hypertrophy and glands), platysmaplasty, and liposuction. A chin crease incision is always used, sometimes with incisions behind the ear. General anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Return to work after one week; exercise from about week three (neck lift).
  • Prices. None published; the site gives a custom quote after consultation.
