As we age, the stresses of everyday life,
gravity and exposure to solar rays can have significant
effects on people’s faces; facial skin begins to sag
and creates wrinkles that make a person look tired and worn
out. A face lift surgery allows for the rejuvenation of
the visible signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening
underlying muscles and smoothing the skin of the face and
neck.
Generally, face lift surgery in New York is done as an
outpatient procedure and carried out under either local
or general anesthesia depending on the patient’s request.
The face lift surgery procedure involves the making of an
incision above the base of the hairline from the temple
to and around front-side of the ear. A face lift surgery
may take anywhere from an hour to several hours to complete
depending on the methods and techniques employed by the
surgeon and so may take anywhere from a couple hours to
separate sessions to complete.
Recovery-time is usually short; with the removal of bandages
by the fifth day, and bruising and swelling diminishing
by the third week. The surgeon will go over all the precautions
prior to and after the surgery.
If you are considering a New
York face lift surgery, we would encourage you to meet with
one of our board certified New York plastic surgeons for
a free consultation to discuss your options for a New York
face lift.
Meeting with one of our New York plastic surgeons will
allow you to get detailed information about the procedure
you are considering, such as the risks and benefits involved,
the costs, type of anesthesia used and recovery period,
and is a great opportunity to address any concerns or questions
you may have.
