What To Know About a Facelift
- posted: Jul. 11, 2024
As you age, you will notice changes all over your body, especially the skin on your face. If you want to freshen up your look and take years off of your appearance, you might be considering a facelift. Dr. Leo Urbinelli at PNW Plastic Surgery in Portland, OR, offers facelift services and a wide range of additional plastic surgery procedures. If you are considering this procedure, his care and expertise will make it a pleasant one.
How a Facelift Can Enhance Your Appearance
Aging causes your skin to lose moisture and elasticity. Your body produces less collagen, leading to facial sagging, fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. A facelift can help you look younger and enhance the appearance and contours of your face. A facelift can:
- Smooth out your skin
- Eliminate wrinkles and fine lines
- Reduce or eliminate sagging facial skin
What To Expect From the Procedure
During a facelift, your Portland, OR, plastic surgeon will make a small incision at the hairline, lifting the facial skin. The excess skin and fat are removed, and the tissue is sculpted back over the face. Your surgeon will close the wound with sutures, hiding the scars under your hairline.
A facelift procedure requires 3 to 4 hours to complete and is performed on an outpatient basis. You will be under sedation, so you must bring a driver with you to take you home. You can expect a downtime of about 2 weeks, and you will enjoy the full benefits of your facelift after about 6 months.
A facelift can be combined with other facial surgeries, including:
- An eyelid surgery to eliminate fatty areas around your eyes and lift your eyelids
- A brow lift to raise your eyebrows, smoothing out forehead wrinkles
- A neck lift to eliminate sagging skin around your neck and jaws
