Description

Thank you for joining me! Today we're going to talk about facelift surgery. If you've listened to my other podcasts, we've already covered surgeries for the forehead, the eyelids, and the neck. Today we're going to put it all together with the facelift.


In this episode I'll explain what facelift surgery is, and how facelift surgery works with the human anatomy to give an ideal result.


We cover a lot of interesting ground in this episode, and answer many of the questions people have about facelifts:


What are the risks and complications of facelift surgery?


What are the types of facelift surgery and how do surgical techniques differ in each type? 


What causes facial aging?


How is a mini facelift different from a full facelift (also known as a SMAS flap or plication)?


Is there pain involved, and how long is the recovery period?


What makes someone a good candidate for a facelift?


As a plastic surgeon with over 32 years of experience, I've addressed the questions and concerns of thousands of men and women, and I can tell you that everyone has questions when it comes to plastic surgery, and facelift surgery is no exception. That's why I made this episode!
