Facelift and neck lift work
- Facelift. The page describes a less extensive surgery for moderate laxity of the mid-face, neck and jowls, and a classic approach for more severe aging in which fat, skin and underlying muscle are remodeled. Incisions are hidden in the hairline and behind the ears (facelift).
- Facelift recovery. Bruising and swelling fade completely after a few weeks; only the least strenuous exercise for two or three weeks; sutures and drains (when present) are removed at post-op visits.
- Neck lift. Short incisions behind the ear and/or under the chin; the platysma is lifted and tightened, and part of it may be removed; sometimes only excess skin is removed. General anesthesia on an outpatient basis, or local anesthesia with IV sedation. Recovery takes about 10 days; a compression garment may be used (neck lift).
- Galleries. The site's gallery lists 125 cases; their procedure tags are breast, body and earlobe repair. No facelift or neck lift photographs.
- Prices. The pricing page lists no facelift or neck lift price.
