Facelift

A facelift is performed by plastic surgeons on patients (both men and women) to surgically alter the visible signs of ageing. Facelift plastic surgery can restore a significantly more youthful look to the patient by eliminating wrinkles, tightening loose skin on the face and jowls region, and lifting neck folds.

The results from facelift plastic surgery are immediate and surgical complications are very infrequent.

The Board Certified Plastic Surgeon offers complimentary plastic surgery consultations at his NYC practice. Please schedule your complimentary consultation by phoning his office.

Facelift plastic surgery can be performed in conjunction with other plastic surgeries or nonsurgical cosmetic enhancements such as blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), facial liposuction (usually in the neck), brow-lifts, and cosmetic injectables such as BOTOX™ cosmetic, lip augmentation, and Juvederm.
