Understanding Facelift Surgery in Long Beach
As time passes, facial aging can cause sagging skin, wrinkles, and volume loss. Advanced facelift techniques at The Waltzman Institute can restore your youthful appearance through personalized, natural-looking surgical approaches.
Facelift Technique Overview
Dr. Waltzman utilizes sophisticated surgical techniques that address multiple facial layers, including the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS). This comprehensive approach ensures more natural, long-lasting rejuvenation compared to traditional skin-only procedures.
SMAS Facelift Variations
- SMAS Plication: Folding and suturing SMAS tissues to restore facial fullness
- SMASectomy: Removing a portion of SMAS to enhance facial tightness
- SMAS Lift: Elevating and repositioning underlying facial tissues
Candidate Considerations
Ideal facelift candidates experience visible signs of aging such as skin laxity, wrinkles, and volume loss. The procedure can be customized to address specific concerns, including sagging skin, hollowed areas, and reduced facial definition.
Procedure Details
The facelift procedure typically takes 3-4 hours and involves strategic incisions along the hairline and around the ears. Dr. Waltzman carefully places incisions to minimize visible scarring while providing comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Recovery and Results
Most patients experience initial swelling and bruising for 2-3 weeks, with full results emerging over several months. Patients can typically return to normal activities after two weeks, with complete healing occurring gradually.
