Advanced Rhytidectomy (Facelift) in Miami, FL

Understanding Facelift Surgery

Over time, gravity, sun exposure, and daily stresses impact facial appearance, causing deep creases, sagging jawlines, and neck changes. Facelifts counteract these aging signs by tightening muscles, removing fat, and trimming excess skin, restoring a fresher and more youthful look.

Benefits of Facelift Surgery

Facelifts effectively address specific facial aging concerns, helping patients correct:

• Midface sagging
• Deep creases under eyes
• Nasolabial fold deepening
• Jowl formation
• Loose skin under chin

Surgical Approach and Techniques

Cosmetique Cosmetic Surgery Center offers multiple facelift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Traditional Full Facelift: Comprehensive rejuvenation of face, jowls, and neck
• Limited-Incision Facelift: Targeted rejuvenation around eyes and mouth
• Neck Lift: Focused correction of neck and jawline concerns

Ideal Facelift Candidates

Optimal candidates for rhytidectomy typically demonstrate:

• Facial sagging with remaining skin elasticity
• Good overall health
• Non-smoking status
• Realistic aesthetic expectations

Recovery and Expectations

Facelift recovery requires patience and careful management. Patients can expect:

• Initial swelling and bruising for several weeks
• Gradual tissue healing over 6-12 months
• Potential return to work around three weeks post-surgery
• Continued improvement in appearance over time

Combining Procedures

For comprehensive facial rejuvenation, patients may combine facelifts with complementary procedures like eyelid surgery or brow lifts. Consultation with Dr. Hunsaker can help determine the most effective treatment plan.

Risks and Considerations

As with any surgical procedure, facelifts carry potential risks including bleeding, infection, and temporary sensation changes. Dr. Hunsaker thoroughly discusses these factors during initial consultations.
