Advanced Facelift in New York, NY | Sultan Mark R MD

Understanding Modern Facelift Techniques

Since the early 1900s, facelift techniques have dramatically evolved from simple skin removal to sophisticated tissue repositioning procedures. The term "facelift" (rhytidectomy) is technically a misnomer, as the procedure focuses more on repositioning facial tissues than merely lifting skin.

Comprehensive Facelift Approaches

Sultan Mark R MD offers multiple facelift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Mini-facelift: Targets areas above the jawline
• Necklift: Focuses on contours below the jawline
• Short scar facelift: Provides improved contouring with minimal scarring
• Deep plane facelift: Repositions deeper facial tissues for natural results

Advanced Surgical Technique

The facelift procedure involves precise manipulation of the face's three tissue layers: skin, SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system), and facial muscles. By focusing on the SMAS layer, Dr. Sultan ensures natural, long-lasting facial rejuvenation.

Surgical Process and Considerations

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, utilizing inconspicuous incisions around the ear. The technique involves elevating and anchoring deep tissues to reposition and smooth the jawline and neck, ensuring a non-pulled, youthful appearance.

Complementary Rejuvenation Techniques

Sultan Mark R MD often incorporates supplemental treatments to enhance facelift results, including:

• Fat injections to improve skin thickness
• Chin implants for improved profile
• Complementary skin treatments like chemical peels

Recovery and Expectations

Typical facelift recovery takes two to three weeks. Patients can usually return to public settings within two weeks, with continued improvements observable for up to six months post-surgery.

Pre-Surgery Preparation

Patients are advised to:

• Obtain medical clearance
• Avoid blood-thinning medications
• Cease smoking for 3-6 weeks before surgery
• Begin homeopathic treatments like Bromelain and Arnica
