I am interested in minimum neck lift but confused about all the different options. Advice?

Neck Rejuvenation Options
Jan 13, 2021

Thanks for sharing. In general, current neck rejuvenation procedures include:

A NECK LIFT* with a LOWER FACELIFT would be the gold standard and gets the best results usually reserved for patients with enough aging in both the face and neck. A neck lift result is even better when combined with a lower facelift because the lower facelift also improves the neck.

LOWER FACELIFT will treat both the lower face laxity (think jowls) and neck skin laxity.

A NECK LIFT* stand alone tightens only the...

What kind of Facelift do I need?

Lower face and neck lift
Sep 8, 2020

Thanks for sharing photos. Based on what I can see in your case, a lower face and neck lift (which would include some liposuction and a plastymsplasty) would be needed for best results. Ultimately an in person visit would be required for definitive recommendations but you appear to be a great candidate with potential for great results. Consult with a few board certified and experienced facelift surgeons. Best of luck!

Is a drainless facelift more dangerous?

Facelift drains
Sep 8, 2020

Good question. I know everyone seems to be afraid of drains, but I do believe drains can only help you recover faster. I call it bruising and swelling in a bottle. This post op fluid is removed via the drain outside of you and not stuck in you causing your skin to bruise and swell. It is typically removed the next day but sometimes one more additional day. Drains are your friends.

I have olive tone skin. Will a facelift leave me visible scars?

Facelift incisions
Sep 8, 2020

Hi and thanks for the question. Facelift incisions well placed and sutured nicely should not leave a "scar" if you are white or olive or a darker complexion. Also, surgical incisions on the face typically heal better than other parts of the body due to the better blood supply. Make sure to consult with an experienced facelift surgeon and look at before and afters. Other things to look is the ear, specifically the tragus and earlobes for any distortion. Best of luck!

Is it really true that facelifts turn out worse if you've had laser treatment??

Facelift after laser skin resurfacing.
Feb 7, 2020

I agree with the general consensus of the experts here. There may have been some mis understanding. Lasers before surgery is fine and lasers with a facelift surgery is fine as well as long as the surgeon knows what he is doing. So you are fine for a lower facelift having done lasers in the past. However, sometimes previous RF devices, smart laser, facetite, kybella, thermi tite can cause some fibrosis under the skin and can make facelifting more challenging. Consult with experi...

Is it normal to have general anesthesia for Buccal Fat Removal?

Buccal fat pad reduction and type of anesthesia
Feb 7, 2020

Buccal fat pad reduction can be performed under local anesthesia only, local anesthesia and oral sedation, and IV sedation. General anesthesia can be fine too but not needed in our practice. Healing is not dependent on the type of anesthesia.

Do you have to be within a certain BMI range to get plastic surgery?

Chin lipo and weight
Feb 7, 2020

Ideally, one would be at a stable weight before chin liposuction. However, if one is somewhat overweight and has been for many years and will continue to be then chin lipo can still be performed. If there is a lot of weight loss and you are young then one may not need the lipo. Consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to see if you are a candidate.

Do I need a full face lift or just neck? I had a mid lift 10 years go. I am 61.

Facelift
Jan 10, 2020

Thanks for asking. I agree with the general consensus that a Facelift which should include a neck lift is needed to get your desired result and ultimately best patient satisfaction. A necklift alone will not be enough to remove all the loose skin that we see here. erformed in an experienced surgeon's hands the incisions should be barely noticeable and result natural. You appear to be a great candidate. Best of luck!

Can muscle be trimmed (removed) during a facelift?

Facelift and muscle work
Jan 10, 2020

Thanks for inquiring. In a facelift the underlying SMAS and PLATYSMA muscles are typically tightened. There are a variety of techniques that include tightening with sutures only and also lifting and excising the loose portion of the muscles. I like to lift and remove the excess SMAS muscle and suture tighten the Platysma muscle. Excess skin is then carefully trimmed. This graphic video shows how the SMAS muscle lifted and how it helps lift the jowls for a natural result.

I had a full facelift in early 2016 and it definitely improved the appearance of my aging face. What

Secondary lift
Jan 10, 2020

Thanks for asking. It looks like you have a nice result from your lift. However, a small portion of facelift patients will get an additional benefit of a secondary tuck. Those with preceding very loose and older skin with less collagen content my need that extra boost. It is safe to do after a year.

Should I have a mid face lift with my neck lift?

Neck results are best when a neck lift is combined with a lower facelift
Oct 23, 2019

I do believe that the best neck lift result is when it is combined with a lower facelift. A neck lift by itself will have a less result in the neck when its not combined. So, in experienced hands this will add more satisfaction to your result and keep you looking more natural younger. I have a dressing for 1 day and usually drains for 1 day as well. Sutures in my patients come out in 1 week. I would expect 10 days of acute recovery but your surgeon and staff should be the one walking ...

Where Do Jowls Go when SMAS Muscle is Lifted and Tightened?

How the Jowl is lifted in a lower facelift
Oct 23, 2019

Good question. JOWLS form due to the combination of:Loose skin (lose of collagen and elastin) Loose SMAS muscle, Lose of fat above the jowl causing deflation,Fat accumulation in the jowl area. A lower facelift can addresses these issues. You can see in the video below how addressing the SMAS lifts the jowl. Be sure to consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon

Is it okay to get a facelift and then 2 months later get a tummy tuck?

Tummy tuck after facelift
Oct 20, 2019

AS long as your healing is normal you should be able to have a tummy tuck 2 months later. You should be healthy enough for the tummy tuck and let your doctor and anesthesiologist know about the recent surgery. Best of luck!

I would like to find the best treatment to tighten and sharpen my jawline and to remove jowls? photo

Lower facelift can be done in your 40's
Oct 20, 2019

The most definitive way to treat a jowl is with a lower facelift. Energy devices such as Profound or FaceTite are an option but on a fraction of the result. I have performed many lower facelifts on women in their 40's and it is becoming more common than ever in my practice. Of course and in person exam need to be performed to ultimately make this decision. Consult with experienced surgeons and see what they offer.

What are the SMAS tightening techniques used with short scar facelifts?

SMAS techniques for facelifting
Oct 20, 2019

There are a lot of techniques to tighten the SMAS. They are usually independent of whether it is a short incision or a regular incision facelift. I tell my patients not to worry about the increased length of the incision as it only allows better visualization and tightening of the SMAS as the incisions heal well. Here is a video of how the SMAS can be cut, lifted, and tightened. Ultimately I would focus on the surgeon and his results over a specific SMAS technique. Consult with a few...
