Facelift in Rome, GA | Horizons Plastic Surgery

Personalized Facelift Techniques

At Horizons Plastic Surgery, each facelift is uniquely designed to harmonize facial features and restore a youthful appearance. Dr. Marc Wetherington understands that no two faces are identical, requiring a customized surgical approach.

Understanding Facelift Procedures

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a sophisticated surgical procedure targeting the sagging cheek and jowl regions while tightening neck skin. The primary goal is to enhance facial contours and provide a more youthful appearance.

Surgical Technique Options

• Short-scar mini-facelift
• Traditional skin-only facelift
• Corset neck lift
• SMAS lift for sagging jowls

What to Expect During Facelift Surgery

Facelift procedures at Horizons Plastic Surgery are performed under general anesthesia, typically lasting three to six hours. Dr. Wetherington carefully plans incisions to minimize visible scarring, strategically placing them along natural skin creases.

Surgical Process

• Incisions made around ear, ear lobe, and scalp
• Excess neck fat removed
• Neck muscles sutured for enhanced tightening
• Skin re-draped and excess removed

Recovery and Aftercare

Post-surgical recovery involves wearing an elastic garment for three to six weeks to control swelling. Patients typically restrict social activities during this period to allow proper healing and minimize bruising.
