FaceliftFacial plastic surgery is focused on correcting undesirable signs of aging on the face. The facelift is generally performed to correct or reduce signs of aging in the lower half of the face: areas such as the cheeks, around the mouth, the jaw line and neck. How To Know If a Facelift Is Right For YouIf you're bothered by folds of skin or sagging tissue in the lower face, you may be a good candidate for a facelift. The following conditions are often corrected through this procedure:
How Facelift Surgery Is PerformedDuring facelift surgery, the skin, along with underlying muscle and fat tissues, is lifted and repositioned in such a way that produces a younger-looking, yet natural facial appearance. Wrinkles are reduced, and moderate to severe skin laxity is corrected to give you a firmer, smoother face. A facelift can often be done under local anesthesia with sedation, but in some cases general anesthesia may be preferred. Techniques used during facelift surgery vary widely, but each is intended to correct the same basic problems. Most facelift surgery procedures will involve incisions near the ears or behind the hairline. At your consultation, Dr. Cozzone will talk with you about your cosmetic concerns and evaluate your facial anatomy and skin characteristics before recommending the face lift technique that will help you achieve the outcome you desire.
