Facelift

A face or neck lift is a surgical procedure that is designed for patients who want to improve their neck, jowl area, cheeks and temples. The extent of the procedure varies with the desires of each individual. The goal of the surgery is to produce a more youthful appearance, without losing a natural, rested, healthy look. Incisions should be well hidden along the hairline and around the ear.

This surgical procedure is performed at the Center for Special Surgery. Patients will leave the center wearing dressings and may return for several office visits until all sutures are removed. Most people are able to return to work and social activities within two to three weeks.

With the recent advances in non-surgical rejuvenation techniques, a facelift may be modified to include only specific areas of the face or neck, and products such as BOTOX® fillers and/or laser resurfacing may be used to complement the surgical procedure.
