Understanding Facelift Surgery
Factors like sun exposure, weight changes, gravity, and time can contribute to facial aging. A facelift (rhytidectomy) offers patients an opportunity to reduce visible signs of aging and restore a more youthful appearance.
Facelift Candidacy
Ideal facelift candidates typically demonstrate the following characteristics:
- Laxity on the jawline or chin causing jowls
- Wrinkles and lines around the nose and mouth
- Diminished volume in the cheek area
SMAS Facelift Technique
Dr. Hasen utilizes the advanced SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) facelift technique, which provides superior, long-lasting results. This method involves lifting underlying facial tissues to create a natural, refreshed appearance.
Procedure Details
The facelift procedure is performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Surgical time typically ranges from 3 to 5 hours, with minimal scarring achieved through strategic incision placement.
Combination Procedures
Dr. Hasen often recommends complementary procedures to enhance overall facial rejuvenation, such as:
- Fat transfer
- Eyelid surgery
- Brow lift
- Neck lift
Recovery and Results
Patients can expect a gradual recovery with most activities resuming within 7-10 days. Results typically become more pronounced over 1-2 months, with final outcomes visible at 6-9 months post-surgery.
