The Facelift Procedure

Dina's Facelift Testimonial

Deep Plane Facelift

The Deep Plane Facelift is an advanced technique that goes beyond the superficial layers of the skin to lift and reposition the deeper facial tissues. This procedure addresses significant sagging, particularly in the mid-face and lower face, by releasing and vertically lifting the deeper layers of the face. The result is a more comprehensive and natural-looking rejuvenation, restoring youthful contours without the overly tight appearance often associated with traditional facelifts. This technique is ideal for those seeking long-lasting, harmonious results that maintain the integrity of their facial expressions.

SMAS Facelift

The SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) facelift goes beyond just tightening the skin. By lifting and repositioning the deeper layers of facial tissue, this technique provides comprehensive rejuvenation, effectively reducing jowls, nasolabial folds, and sagging skin with a remarkably natural-looking and youthful transformation.

Mini Facelift

The Mini Facelift is a less invasive option that is ideal for patients showing early signs of aging. This approach focuses on the lower face and neck, gently lifting and tightening sagging skin and muscles, offering a refreshed look with minimal downtime and subtle, natural results. Even though this is considered mini, the deeper planes are also repositioned but just through a shorter scar.

Neck Lift

A Neck Lift targets sagging skin, muscle banding, and excess fat in the neck area, delivering a smoother, firmer neckline. This procedure is often combined with a facelift to enhance overall facial rejuvenation and create a more youthful, defined profile.

California Facelift

The California Facelift is a customized procedure that blends elements of deep plane and SMAS facelifts along with Dr. Cohen’s unique regenerative fat grafting procedure. This custom approach provides comprehensive rejuvenation, ensuring natural facial expressions and long-lasting results.

Platysmaplasty

Platysmaplasty, or neck muscle tightening, smooths away loose or banded platysma muscles in the neck. By tightening the muscles, this procedure significantly enhances the neck area, reducing the appearance of vertical bands and creating a more youthful and refined neckline.

Deep Neck and Submandibular Gland Reduction:

This advanced procedure refines the jawline and neck by removing excess fat below the platysma muscle and reducing the size of the submandibular glands, while contouring the underlying muscle and fat. The result is a more sculpted, elegant neck contour, especially effective for patients seeking a well-defined jawline.

“Scarless” Facelift

The “Scarless” Facelift is a minimally invasive technique that uses small, hidden incisions in the hair and behind the ear to lift and tighten facial tissues. This approach offers a refreshed, youthful appearance without visible scars, making it an excellent option for younger patients seeking discreet yet effective rejuvenation. Through this approach, the brow, as well as the corner of the eye, may be elevated, creating the “fox eye look”.

Facelift FAQs

Can a facelift in San Diego improve both midface and lower face sagging?

Yes, facelifts can address sagging in both the midface and lower face. A traditional facelift focuses on lifting and tightening skin and underlying tissues, creating a more youthful contour in these areas.

How long does a facelift usually last compared to non-surgical treatments?

While non-surgical treatments often require maintenance every few months, the results of a facelift can last 10 years or more, making it a long-term solution for facial rejuvenation.

What are the best skincare practices to maintain facelift results?

Using quality skincare products, like antioxidants and retinoids, along with daily SPF, helps maintain skin health. Treatments like chemical peels or laser resurfacing may also be suggested post-surgery for upkeep.

Will I have visible scars after a facelift?

Facelift incisions are typically made in inconspicuous areas, such as along the hairline or behind the ears. Skilled surgeons like Dr. Cohen focus on minimizing scars, which tend to fade over time and are often barely noticeable.
