Facelifts by Plastic Surgeons and Cosmetic Surgeons

Patients who desire a face lift may have noticed the effects of age, gravity, exposure to sunlight, and the stresses of life all taking their toll on a person\'s face. Deep creases often develop around the nose, eyes, and mouth, an individual\'s jaw line may begin to sag, and fat deposits accumulate throughout the neck region. Such factors may affect an individual\'s confidence, leading them to seek their own face lift. A face lift can help such individuals restore youthful vibrance and energy to the face. The effects of time are virtually undone to restore an individual\'s face and to remove many of the effects of time and aging. These plastic surgeons and cosmetic surgeons in California accomplishe such effects by working with wrinkles, tightening the skin, removing fat deposits, and by tightening the underlying muscles of the face. This not only helps to restore the physical appearance of the patient, but also restores self-confidence and respect to the patient. Please contact these plastic surgeons and cosmetic surgeons to learn more about getting a face lift.

A face lift is a very individualized procedure in which your goals should be realistically determined and discussed with your physician. Together you will determine what specific procedures will be performed. A face lift is often performed in conjunction with other procedures such as a brow lift, nose job, or eye surgery (blepharoplasty). Once your goals have been determined you will set a date for this procedure and will be given instructions about how to prepare.

When the date for your face lift has arrived, you should plan on the surgery taking several hours or more depending on which procedures you are having performed. There is no set procedure for how a face lift is performed, as each individual\'s face is different and may have different requirements. However, many cosmetic surgeons and plastic surgeons will determine the best placement for incisions used to remove fat deposits and to tighten skin and muscle tissues. Incisions are often placed in the scalp so that they will be less visible, and if work is done on the neck area, the incision is usually placed under the chin.

The skin and muscle tissues will often be separated so that fat deposits can be removed to improve the overall shape of the face. The cosmetic surgeon or plastic surgeon will then tighten the muscle and skin tissues and remove any excess skin. Finally, the skin is pulled back into position and pinned in place. All procedures are performed with anesthesia to minimize any discomfort or pain. Learn more about a face lift.
