Can a facelift be combined with other procedures?
Yes! Common complementary procedures include brow lift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, chin or cheek implants, rhinoplasty, dermal fillers, and other cosmetic injectables.
Combining procedures can address multiple concerns in a single surgery, potentially reducing overall costs and recovery time while maximizing aesthetic results.
How can I maintain my facelift results?
It is helpful to wear sun protection daily, use medical-grade skincare products, and maintain a healthy diet and active lifestyle.
When will my stitches be removed?
Stitches are typically removed during the second postoperative appointment, which takes place about five days after surgery.
Can a facelift correct "turkey neck"?
Only when combined with a neck lift can loose, sagging skin in the neck area, commonly referred to as a "turkey neck, " be effectively addressed. During your consultation, Dr. Weber will evaluate your concerns and recommend the best treatment option to achieve a smoother, more defined neckline.
What is the typical age range for facelift patients?
Facelifts are commonly performed on individuals between the ages of 40 and 80, depending on their unique aging concerns and skin condition.
Do I need to quit smoking before a facelift?
Smoking hampers healing, so it’s recommended to quit at least two weeks before and after surgery to reduce complications and improve results. Additionally, smoking post-surgery can decrease the lifespan of your facelift.
What are the risks of a facelift?
As with any surgery, a facelift carries potential risks, including infection, bleeding, scarring, nerve injury, and prolonged swelling or numbness. Rare complications may include hematoma, skin irregularities, or poor wound healing. However, complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced facial plastic surgeon. Dr. Weber will thoroughly discuss these risks and address any concerns before your procedure to ensure you are well-informed and prepared.
How much does a facelift cost?
The cost of a facelift depends on the extent of the procedure and whether additional treatments are combined. Pricing details will be discussed during your consultation, where Dr. Weber will provide a personalized treatment plan.
