Why Choose Facelifts from Dr. Choe?
A facelift (or rhytidectomy) is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at reducing the visible signs of aging in the face and neck. The face and neck often show the earliest signs of aging, with sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of volume in areas like the cheeks and jawline. Dr. Choe’s expertise in facelift surgery can reverse these signs and help restore a more youthful, refreshed appearance. Dr. Choe has performed over 1,000 procedures, specializing in facelifts with advanced training and extensive experience.
Before & After
What is the Facelift Procedure?
The facelift procedure typically begins with either general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, ensuring your comfort throughout the process. Dr. Choe will make incisions along the hairline and around the ears to access the underlying tissues. The skin and muscle are gently lifted in a deep plane fashion, which helps to achieve more natural and long-lasting results. Excess tissue and fat are removed or repositioned, and the skin is re-draped over the face. The incisions are then closed with sutures, and the procedure is complete. The deep plane facelift is gaining popularity for its ability to address both skin and deeper facial structures for a more youthful appearance.
Full Facelift Recovery
After a facelift, you may experience mild to moderate discomfort, which can be managed with pain medication prescribed by Dr. Choe. Bruising and swelling are common, but they usually subside within a few weeks. You’ll have a post-operative appointment the day following surgery to monitor your progress, and your sutures are removed on days 4-5, 7 and 10 days. Most patients can return to work after about a week, but physical activities should be limited during recovery.
