Procedures for Men


Face Lift
Rhytidectomy

Facelift has always been a very popular plastic surgery procedure, and has been steadily growing in popularity among men. A facelift mostly affects the lower portion of the face from the cheeks and jowls to the neck. Incisions are typically made behind the ears and under the chin to remove skin and fat deposits and to tight certain muscles creating youthful contours and taught skin.

Costs

Facelift surgery is performed under general anesthesia, meaning you will sleep through the procedure, or with local anesthesia and sedation. Facelift surgery can take several hours depending on your individual needs. Facelift surgery is usually performed as an outpatient procedure, meaning you will return home the same day. In some cases, depending on your overall health, a brief hospital stay may be necessary.

Surgeon Fees

Facelift surgery can be an intricate procedure and should be performed by a well trained, experienced surgeon. If you need help finding a facelift surgeon in your area, our physician referral service offers listings of qualified, board certified plastic surgeons.

Recovery

Immediately following surgery you will need to rest with your head elevated to reduce swelling and bruising. Most patients are able to return to light activities in 10 to 12 days. Bruising will subside after 2 to 3 weeks. Some patients are comfortable returning to regular social activities after 2 weeks. Incisions are usually made behind the hairline to reduce visible scarring. It is very important to avoid direct sun exposure for many months after surgery and to use sunscreen at all times.
