Face Lift Surgery with Excellent Results — Philadelphia, Bryn Mawr, Pottstown
Your face plays a very important role in defining and expressing who you are. People can tell whether you are happy, excited, sad, disappointed, or tired, or even how old you are, just by looking at your face. As we age, time, along with the sun and other harsh environmental factors, can leave our skin looking dull and wrinkled. Fortunately, the experienced plastic surgeons at our ear, nose, and throat practice offer exceptional face lift surgery to patients from Philadelphia, Pottstown, Bryn Mawr, and nearby areas, allowing them to give you a youthful, more refreshed appearance.
Before Face Lift Surgery
Before undergoing face lift surgery at our Philadelphia, Bryn Mawr, and Pottstown-area practice, the patient must schedule an initial consultation with one of our doctors. During the initial consultation, the doctor will determine whether the patient is a suitable candidate for face lift surgery. The best candidates for face lift surgery have good skin elasticity, strong facial bone structure, and good overall health. In addition, the patient should maintain realistic expectations for the procedure. Once the examination is complete, the doctor will discuss the patient's plastic surgery needs and goals and decide which custom-tailored face lift procedure would best meet them. Patients can also use this time to discuss any questions or concerns they may have regarding the face lift procedure.
If the patient is a suitable candidate for face lift surgery, he or she will be asked to do certain things to prepare for surgery. Patients should refrain from smoking or taking aspirin or other blood thinners for at least two weeks before the face lift operation. In addition, the day before surgery, patients will be asked to wash their hair thoroughly to minimize the chances of developing an infection. Patients should also avoid using alcohol the night before face lift surgery and make sure to get plenty of rest. In addition, patients must arrange for transportation after face lift surgery because they will not be able to drive. Following these and all other directions given by the doctor will help ensure the most successful face lift surgery results.
Face Lift Procedure
During face lift surgery at our Philadelphia practice, which also serves Pottstown and Bryn Mawr, the doctor will create an incision that is hidden behind the hairline to minimize scarring. Next, the skin on the face will be separated from the underlying tissue. The doctor will then remove excess fat and tissue under the skin and tighten the muscles to create an improved facial contour. Next, the skin will be pulled taut to smooth out any wrinkles. Any excess skin will be trimmed away, and the remaining skin will be reattached in its new position. The entire face lift procedure lasts between two and four hours. The result is smoother facial skin and a refreshed, youthful appearance.
Face Lift Benefits
A face lift can turn back the hands of time on a face that shows evidence of aging. Patients can benefit from younger and more attractive facial contours, smoother skin, and toned muscles after face lift surgery. Because our experienced surgeons utilize the latest face lift techniques and technology, patients can rest assured that their results will appear natural and never “too tight.” For a complete cosmetic makeover, patients can combine face lift surgery with other enhancements at our Philadelphia, Pottstown, and Bryn Mawr-area practice such as rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, and skin resurfacing.
