Male Facelift
As part of the natural aging process, the skin and muscle of the lower face and neck lose elasticity, resulting in jowls and a poor neck contour. Facelifts are used to restore a more youthful appearance to the lower two-thirds of the face, from the eyes down to the mid to lower neck. They are usually performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia, although secondary or minor lifts can be done under local anesthesia and sedation.
Facelifts remove excess skin and tighten underlying neck and facial muscles. Excess fat and skin are removed through inconspicuous incisions placed at or behind the hairline, under the chin, and within the natural curves around the ears. The use of tissue sealant has proven effective in post-op bruising and swelling.
Facelifts are often performed with other rejuvenating procedures such as an eyelid lift, forehead lift, nose or chin reshaping, and chemical skin peels and dermabrasions or laser resurfacing of wrinkles. Most sutures are removed after 5 to 10 days and residual bruising can be covered by makeup. Patients are generally ready to go out in public or back to work within 2 to 3 weeks after surgery.
