FACE LIFT (Rhytidectomy)
Face Lift Continued
The procedure generally lasts a few hours and is performed under
general
anesthesia. Incisions are made
to lift your face and re-drape
your skin in a natural, more youthful
way. These incisions are hidden
within the natural contours of
the ears and hairline to minimize
visible scaring. If fat is to
be removed from the neck and face,
an incision may be required under
the chin.
We often see our face
lift patients back to work
after a short recovery time of
10 to 14 days. We suggest avoiding
strenuous activity until all bruising
has subsided, most often in
2 to 3 weeks.
Your face lift will help you look younger, more vibrant and
rested. Effects usually last
5 to 10 years.
