Facelift

Within 2 weeks most patients find they look normal enough to return to work and social activities.

Usually, you wear the compression garment for 22 hours per day for the first 7 days and then 12 hours a day for the next 3 weeks.

The fastest way to heal from a facelift is to follow all of your surgeon's instructions. Eat well and limit caffeine and alcohol at least 7 days prior to surgery. Exercise regularly prior to the procedure but be sure to follow exercise limitations after surgery. Using Arnica Montana orally and topically can result in less bruising and swelling. Using our ice machine attachment under your compression garment will greatly reduce the swelling and healing time.

A facelift procedure may be right for you if you feel like what you see in the mirror is not a true reflection of how you feel. The most common age for this feeling to start is 40-55 years of age. Around this time the jowls start to form, we lose our defined jawline, the cheeks begin to sag and bands form in the neck. If this is what you are seeing in the mirror, then a facelift procedure may be the right procedure for you.

You should expect a full evaluation of your face and neck with photo imaging taken. Then, we will review these photos and discuss your options from least invasive to more invasive. At FacesFirst, we feel education about your options is paramount to having the best long-term outcome and the best relationship with your surgeon. Once, your options have been outlined and detailed, we will work within your budget to create an anti aging program that will achieve your goals. All of your questions will be answered.
