Benefits of a Face Lift in Los Angeles
Tightens Skin
A face lift tightens skin and the muscles supporting it to stop the “sag” caused by all that sunshine, the loss of volume, and the passage of time.
Natural Results
The advanced techniques and technology at Younique Surgery Center, along with our surgical staff’s years of expertise, help to ensure that your face lift will look natural as well as beautiful!
Attentive Care
It’s not just about how you look, it’s about how you feel. Our entire staff is here for you to help you achieve the best you there is, inside and out.
Consultation
It starts with a personal consultation with your surgeon. You’ll discuss your concerns, your goals for treatment, and your medical history. Plus, your surgeon will examine and assess your face and neck for treatment suitability. If they determine that a face lift is the best procedure to address your concerns and goals, we’ll schedule a date for surgery and begin preparations for your face lift in Los Angeles.
Procedure
Our surgeons have years of experience and expertise, making your face lift an outpatient procedure that takes only hours to complete. Once proper preparation and sedation has been given, your surgeon will make small incisions, meticulously placed to minimize the appearance of scars. With their exceptional skill, your results will be tight and firm.
Recovery
Plan on at least 1 to 2 weeks of recovery time before returning to normal daily activities. Most people clearly see results of their face lift within 1 to 2 months. These positive changes last for several years! However, aging will continue, and environmental factors will still affect your skin. We’ll make sure you know how to maximize and support your face lift results to protect your investment as long as possible.
How do I know if I'm a good candidate for a face lift?
Your consultation will evaluate your ability to have a face lift. However, it helps if you don’t smoke, don’t have medical bleeding or clotting issues, and have a healthy expectation for the outcomes.
What does a face lift surgical procedure usually entail?
Once proper sedation has been given, your Younique surgeon will place small incisions in locations based on the scope of your face lift as well as your unique anatomy and ultimate goals. These incisions allow the provider to remove and reposition fat as necessary to create slimmer and more youthful contours. A face lift may also involve some liposuction for the removal of unwanted fat.
Once everything is in place, the surgeon will re-drape the skin over the newly shaped tissues, tightening and firming your face. Excess skin is trimmed away, and what remains is sutured into place to begin healing. Afterward, some people choose to wait six weeks before attending any major social events, and it can take a year for all of the changes made by the surgery to fully resolve, but most people find that they can clearly see the results they were hoping for within one or two months.
